Comparison of high-level programming languages efficiency in embedded systems

Conducting research, especially in technical field often binds with necessity of making device prototype or specialized tools. In such situations implementing solution using hardware microcontroller-based platform is best way to reach set goal. Choice of development platform and software environment decides about success of project or allows saving significant amount of time. In article have been tested 3 common development platforms based on different microcontrollers and two high-level programming languages, C/C++ and new solution based on Python. Chosen testing process is based on mathematical procedures used in control, analysis and automation. Results of research should allow to selection of optimal hardware platform as well programming language according to planned use and requested computing power.
