Description: A networked embedded system is an embedded system that is connected to a network for communication and data exchange. These systems are designed to perform specific tasks and, by being connected to a network, can interact with other devices and systems, facilitating real-time data collection and analysis. Networked embedded systems typically include microcontrollers or microprocessors that run specific software, as well as communication interfaces that allow them to connect to local networks or the Internet. This connectivity gives them the ability to receive updates, send information, and collaborate with other systems, making them essential in modern applications such as the Internet of Things (IoT). The main characteristics of these systems include their ability to operate autonomously, energy efficiency, and optimized design for specific tasks. The relevance of networked embedded systems lies in their ability to enhance automation, monitoring, and control of processes across various industries, contributing to the creation of smarter and more connected environments.
