    Microsoft’s Windows Embedded family of operating systems, tools, and services help enterprises leverage customized intelligent system solutions to gather, store, and process data. All the Windows Embedded versions we will be discussing in this paper are either fully equivalent or a subset of the functionality that shipped in the desktop version of the OS. Therefore, your current knowledge of Windows XP, Windows 7, or Windows 8/8.1 will continue to be of use.

    An OEM is an individual or company that selects one of the products mentioned in this paper. The OEM customizes and configures a unique software image based on that product. Then the OEM combines that image with hardware to produce a task-specific or industry-specific solution that is sold to customers. The OEM must have a license with Microsoft for each product and pay a run-time license fee for each device sold to its customers.
