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...

Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) program managers want their intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) payloads to see further at lower weight and in more compact packages than previous designs. Multi-mission payloads involving radar, signals intelligence, multi-spectral, hyperspectral, an...

Reliability concern of Flash Products is getting serious since Flash doesn't equal to magnetic mass storage. Comparing with HDD, SSD has ultra-high performance. However, limited Program/Erase cycles, read cycles and data retention are additional risks customers and engineers have to deal with. ATP...

DoD budget pressures and time-to-deployment pressures are seriously challenging the current paradigm of bus-board based approach for sensor equipment development. The prime contractors are finding that to assemble, integrate, develop and test bus-boards based design for complex sensor systems are b...

GE, Cisco, AT&T, Intel and IBM recently established the Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC) at the Object Management Group (OMG) standards body. OMG is the world's largest system software standards organization, responsible for the UML modeling language and DDS data-centric middleware standards. At...

The automotive environment is a challenging mix of entertainment, safety, and reliability. But challenges don’t stop with the car itself. Advances in highway infrastructure and sensor technology are enabling a safer, more automated travel while reducing accident risk and driver distractions. In resp...

Intel’s tick-tock cadence of innovation and processor improvement continually drives embedded advances in performance, power, graphics, security and form factor. Building on the technical achievements of previous processor generations, today’s 4th generation Intel® Core™ product family enables a dr...

New virtualization technologies are giving developers an opportunity to reduce the cost and complexity of industrial automation. Using multicore processors, developers can combine previously discrete subsystems into a single computing unit, thereby reducing the system’s footprint and streamlining in...

With Microsoft’s announcement of the end of life of Windows XP on April 8, 2014, various embedded systems may be at risk. Leaving these systems unpatched and unprotected not only poses a risk to your business, but also may impact security posture, and your organization’s ability to meet compliance r...

Recent innovations in image sensor and display technologies have impacted many application areas. Many of the same technologies are being used in consumer, automotive, and industrial applications. Mobile devices (i.e., smart phones, tablets and wearables) now dominate the R&D investment and consumpt...

Infotainment and electronic vehicle systems have seen a dramatic increase in complexity creating several software and systems safety and development challenges. The ISO 26262 automotive functional safety standard is a critical compliance element for addressing these challenges. It’s critical to have...

In this webinar, learn how a safety-certifiable implementation of DDS can reduce certification costs of your project by at least $2 million. We will also discuss testability of distributed systems, how to avoid sources of non-determinism, design alternatives to reliable communication, and more. The...

Today’s emerging IoT, Wearable and Smart Analogue designs are seen to be extremely complex to design due to the mixed signal aspect of the device. It is a common belief that creating such a mixed signal design with an embedded CPU, flash, analogue, and radio is very hard to do. Please join ARM an...
