About the author
Jack G. Ganssle
11 books9 followersHe started, developed and sold three electronics companies; including one of the world's leading producers of embedded development tools.
He developed or managed the development of over 100 embedded products, including in-circuit emulators, underwater navigation equipment (some used to recover Space Shuttle Challenger's wreckage), steel thickness gauges, near-IR protein measurement instruments, the White House security system, compilers, colorimeters, numerous classified Government systems... and even one device that analyzed cow poop!
