Term of the Week - Embedded System . A combination of computer hardware
and software, and perhaps additional mechanical or other parts, designed
to perform a dedicated function. In some cases, embedded systems are
part of a larger system or product, as is the case of an anti-lock
braking system in a car. Contrast with general-purpose computer.
