<programming> A term used by COCOMO to describe a project
development that is characterised by tight, inflexible
constraints and interface requirements. The product must
operate within (is embedded in) a strongly coupled complex of
hardware, software, regulations and operational procedures.
An embedded mode project will require a great deal of
innovation. An example would be a real-time system with
timing constraints and customised hardware.
