Agile approaches are proved by numerous case studies and reports to be effective and constructive in desktop software development. However, the situation is quite different in the embedded world due to the unique characteristics of the embedded software projects, which bring many difficulties to developers. And little is known about the current application status of agile methods to cope with this special domain. In this paper, a systematic review was conducted to explore the particularity of the embedded software development and the relevant solutions using agile methods and practices. The result will supply a guideline to choose the appropriate agile elements to deal with the challenges derived from embedded characteristics.
