There’s no doubt about it: having a title, can help you get a better job. ARM Accredited Engineer is one title that could be your passport to that better job. The ARM Accredited Engineer (AAE) Program is the only global exam-based accreditation program that exists today for ARM technology. It offers...

This webinar will take a look at common challenges faced in low-power LCD applications. You will learn how MSP430FR4x ultra-low-power microcontrollers from Texas Instruments help reduce system size, power and development time with unmatched flexibility, abundant IO and non-volatile FRAM technology....

What if your RTOS gave you more than just a kernel, basic set of middleware, drivers, and development tools?

Processor technology from ARM has become a game changer for multiple industries, delivering high-performance-per-watt processing and high levels of integration to enable system on a chip (SoC) capability in a low-power device. This combination has been ideal for small form factor systems in avionics...

The level of sophistication in automobiles is skyrocketing. And the number of critical digital assets involved is not limited to software - firmware, maps, manuals, and entertainment objects all represent important product components that must be managed effectively for high quality and standards co...

The exciting potential of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is to create bold new intelligent machines and vast distributed systems. The IIoT will change the world across many industries. These applications define the future: renewable energy, cars that drive themselves, planes that fly thems...

Gaining the tactical edge on the battlefield is becoming less about troop and tank deployments but more about who has the smartest sensors, best electronic warfare (EW) techniques, and the most accurate radar systems.

Availability of low cost platforms for hobbyists and professional engineers alike have spurred a dramatic growth in innovation, software, and tools platforms for embedded systems. Open Source Projects and development tools are lining up to support a variety of DiY platforms. The DiY ecosystem enable...

The United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is beginning to open the national airspace unmanned aerial systems (UASs). The UAS commercial market is expected to some day dwarf what is already a multi-billion military marketplace for UAS technology. However, before that happens rules and r...

How much thought are you putting into your software release and deployment process? For companies taking an ad-hoc approach this process may be risking their company's future. A process that is prone to error, doesn't securely store artifacts needed for traceability, and is unable to reproduce and t...

Retail system breaches continue to grab headlines with millions of consumer records exploited and hundreds of lawsuits filed. What lessons have we learned from the most recent breaches such as Target, Niemen Marcus and others? What role can the OEM take to address future breaches? New PCI DSS v 3.0...

Economic realities dictate that "new" distributed systems are almost never entirely new creations. Existing capabilities which cannot be readily duplicated at minimal cost are often necessary and even critical components of otherwise new systems. How we address achieving interoperability with these...

From modernizing legacy systems to designing new industrial and consumer connected products spawned by the era of the Internet of Things (IoT), embedded developers are faced with new challenges for their devices where connectivity, scalability, security, and future-proofing are required along with t...

The future of automotive will feature vehicle to vehicle communications for enhanced safety and the ability to integrate personal mobile devices into the car to provide improved information and a better entertainment experience. The benefits and convenience are significant – but what’s the impact of...

Today's SoCs are ever increasing in complexity with features such as multiple cores, multiple clusters, heterogeneous compute, coherency, DVFS and multiple architectures. Traditional hardware debug solutions fail to address the entire SoC space and this is where a customized debug and trace solution...

Smaller, compact electronics are being required more and more for vetronics, avionics, unmanned system payloads, missile systems, command and control systems, radios, and other military applications. Mostly because modern processing technology enables system designers to replace legacy systems with...

There are many things that can go wrong in the modern data center today. When it comes to virtualized environments, what do you need to be able to restore? Just a file? Maybe an entire VM? What about a SQL record, email message or Linux application? Join Expert Rick Vanover from Veeam for this webin...

Odds are good that your data is extremely important to you. Now consider how one secures that data. Typical approaches address access, authentication, integrity, non-repudiation and confidentiality concerns at the domain and link layers, implicitly securing the data. The challenge and need is to mov...

Many of the safety standards specify a number of 'objectives' or 'requirements' that need to be met. We will discuss these objectives and look at various ways in which they can be implemented and documented as well as highlighting the processes, procedures, risks and tools used to achieve safety-cri...

Today’s business services and operational components are typically distributed with no centralized repository which can result in prolonged service outages. Incorporating external vendor technology and managing integration of open source software can also cause service outages beyond the company’s...

The Internet of Things (IoT) trend promises to connect the smallest of sensors, the broadest range of consumer electronics, to the largest of information delivery systems. As Internet connectivity has pushed its way down the complexity chain the price, performance, and bandwidth requirements for “in...

Is your communications-related company becoming larger and more distributed? Having a hard time setting consistent processes company-wide? If organizational growth is not managed effectively, both company-wide and with external vendors, break-downs are inevitable resulting in service outages or even...
