We intuitively accept that airplanes will not fall out of the sky, and we expect that software written for defense and life critical systems is robust and secure. But we want ever increasing action from devices with ever decreasing size, weight, power, and cost. MILS brings it safe, secure, and tigh...

AdvancedTCA has moved in a few years from creation, to the lab, through customer testing and is now beginning large-scale deployment. Join us for this Open Systems Publishing E-cast and find out what is exciting carriers, telecom equipment manufacturers, and vendors of Advanc...

Linux offers enormous advantages as an embedded device operating platform - if you can safely manage the risks. Whether you are just starting to consider Linux or your engineering team has extensive experience developing Linux devices, producing increasingly complex devices depends heavily on "best...

Developers of embedded devices need speed on two fronts: speed in their devices and speed in their development time. The rewards for having both are clear: advanced functionality drives product adoption and adoption drives revenue. Hitting the market Window with differentiated product is everything....

After watching a wave of multicore processors announced in the last couple years, now I'm seeing the pendulum swing to new software that finally enables developers to really take advantage of them. Tools are hitting the market allowing developers to deploy applications on embedded multicore processo...

What open standard board format has dozens of vendors, leverages technology from commercial markets, and still offers RAS, QoS, low cost, and an outstanding roadmap? Why, the AdvancedMC-based MicroTCA, of course. This E-cast provides an overview of MicroTCA and showcases some of the standard's capab...

This E-cast will give you valuable insights into the increasing challenges imposed by today's mixed-language, varied levels of safety and security, multi-core, multi-partitioned, multi-execution mode applications and the available solutions to their growing complexity.

A discussion of how embedded hardware modules, operating systems, development tools, and engineering methodologies ALL must be designed with "mission criticality" in mind during war time. In this E-cast, we will also take a look at some of the techniques employed by leading embedded systems and tool...

The Cell Broadband Engine (Cell BE) is an extremely high-performance signal processing chip currently under evaluation for multi-function radars, including detection, tracking, jamming, NCTR, raid assessment, missile data linking, mapping and communications. The key issue in parallel processing and...

Telecom equipment manufacturers (TEMs), network equipment providers (NEPs) and service providers face rising demands to increase services, faster and with fewer resources. The Service Availability Forum has developed specifications for standardizing hardware access, through the Hardware Platform Int...

The Communications Platforms Trade Association (CP-TA) is an association of communications platform and building block providers working together to accelerate the adoption of SIG-governed, open-specification-based communication platforms by certifying interoperable building blocks. This Webinar wil...

Advanced multi-function radar systems present enormous challenges, as they must simultaneously provide multi-mode search, multi-target tracking, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging, and space time adaptive processing (STAP). These systems will be deployed in some of the harshest and most demandin...

FPGAs offer a wide range of cost/performance for implementing DSP algorithms. Finding the optimal implementation usually involves exploring the tradeoffs between fully parallel vs. serial architectures of the algorithm and will be highly dependent on the available resources, speed, and architecture...

The Service Availability Forum has made great strides in 2006 with the release of the updated Hardware Platform Interface, the Application Interface Specification, and the new Systems Management Interfaces. This webinar will give participants a look at the current roadmap and expected releases for 2...

Learn what's essential to know for your enterprise - why has MicroTCA emerged so rapidly as an important new platform standard for telecommunications, medical, and mil/aero markets? This live E-cast looks at what is ahead for MicroTCA with its extremely high performance and bandwidth, plus its abili...

Engineers designing an embedded computing processor or I/O board face many challenges and choices. This E-cast will explore what happens when chipset are not available or alternatives are needed to meet specific design requirements.

This seminar will cover how today's engineering development teams can utilize a multipurpose embedded Linux distribution to create powerful embedded solutions. We will explore how open source packages developed and maturing today provide a path to carrier-grade Linux (CGL) solutions for embedded dev...

This seminar compares the benefits of SMP and distributed architectures as implemented for different types of processors. Developers and innovators who require embedded multiprocessing solutions can benefit from this seminar, which will present: (1) The ease of use and code portability of SMP archit...

The COM Express standard defines a small form factor single board computer based on high performance PCI Express fabric technology. Com Express boards can be used standalone for embedded applications or can act as a CPU mezzanine that plugs onto an application specific I/O base board. Using COM Expr...
