What is mean by embedded system?
If a system/machine or product which we are making is for multiple purposes, then can we consider it as an embedded system? Or is it that only a system dedicated for a particular task that is considered as an embedded system? Can a PC/mobile/laptop be considered as an embedded system or not?

Smartphones and tablet computers–like the Apple (Nasdaq:AAPL) iPhone and iPad, as well as the many Android-powered devices–clearly lie somewhere between embedded system and general purpose computer.
As you know, an embedded system is a combination of hardware and software designed to perform a particular task. This smartphone helps the user to interact with the embedded system located within the proximity of the smartphone. So both the embedded system and smartphone have two aspects.
An embedded device is part of a larger computing system and serves a specific purpose. Also known as a dedicated or single-purpose device, an embedded device is embedded or included within the larger system.
Laptops and general-purpose CPU's are not considered to be embedded computers for several reasons. First, the word “embedded” implies that the computer must be contained in a larger mechanical or electronic system.
Embedded system is any device that includes a programmable computer put it is not itself a general-purpose computer, so the mobile is not an embedded system because it has no super loop and it can do various general purpose things just like a computer, and an embedded system has memory constrain timing, constrain and they do things in limit space.
