Embedded E-cast

Join Chris Shore, ARMs Training Manager, and Martin Weidmann, Principal Applications Engineer, for an overview of the 64-bit ARMv8-A architecture as found in the latest tablets and mobile phones. Martin, one of ARMs senior instructors, will introduce the key elements of the architecture such as the instruction set, privilege and exception model, memory architecture, touching on features which support operating systems, hypervisors and secure platforms.

The Internet of Things (IoT) encompasses a range of technology verticals, from consumer electronics and connected cars to industrial controls and the smart grid. However, while this immense diversity has created a market opportunity valued as high as $14 trillion, it has also generated significant interoperability issues stemming from a vast amount of available communications protocols.

DO-178C is now the standard for virtually all new software flying today. Developing DO-178C avionics software adds a significant effort over standard industry practices.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has recently published guidance on the usage of multi-core processor in airborne systems. Multi-core processors offer performance improvements, legacy software reuse, and cost savings through consolidation of multiple applications on a single silicon platform.

Kontron, MultiTech and Microsoft have partnered to bring you a solution that will: Reduce development time Work in multiple regions with multiple cellular carriers Eliminate the need for cellular certifications Reduce costs by increasing life and decreasing maintenance Easily customize and engineer to your industry.

Have you struggled to effectively apply conventional connectivity solutions to your Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) application? Do you re-invent the wheel every time you deal with managing multiple independent states as you add new applications? Do you have to create your own custom application level protocols? Will your connectivity solution be flexible enough to accommodate future requirements, data types and staffing changes?.

The Internet of Things is a broad-reaching concept traversing virtually every market segment. The IoT space has created a market opportunity valued as high as $14 trillion by analysts.

Medical or Health and Fitness patches allow patients to monitor vital data on their own and share data securely to remote healthcare centers for analysis and instruction. The highly integrated ultra-low-power RF430FRL15xH system-on-chip enables the development of disposable patches that sense temperature, hydration and more for either battery-supported data logging in FRAM or on-the-spot, passive measurement using RF energy harvested from an NFC-enabled phone.

Software development and methodologies are constantly evolving and incorporating agile, continuous practices, and DevOps can have profound effects. Effects can include a transformation not only in development methodologies, but also in how companies choose to organize themselves, how they view their business, and most significantly, how they deliver value to their customers.

Modern radar systems must keep up with a rapidly changing threat environment, readily adapt to new technologies and be developed with smaller budgets. How do you architect your future radar systems to meet these challenging requirements? .

The new USB Type-C promises to revolutionize many types of equipment with its up to 100W of power for faster charging and support of new devices, small reversible connector that improves ease of use, blazing fast 10Gbits+ of bandwidth and the flexibility of video alternate modes. Industry leaders are likely to release the first products that utilize this technology mid-2015.

There are many factors to consider when youre designing a device that needs to talk to the outside world, a phenomenon thats now commonly known as the Internet of Things. The first point to consider is your target market thatll also determine how deeply you need to be involved in the security discussions.

Even in today's budget-constrained environment the Department of Defense is still funding Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions from payloads in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) to radar and maritime surveillance. All of these applications are driven by requirements for more and more signal processing performance and reduced Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP).

Safety certification for avionics hardware and software is an expensive, complicated process, but absolutely necessary to ensure safe skies for commercial aircraft passengers and military jets flying in the national airspace. Now unmanned aircraft flight critical electronics will also have to meet these same safety requirements as the U.

Embedded systems are becoming interconnected and accessible via the internet. Gartner Group estimates there will be nearly 26 billion devices that make up the Internet of Things by 2020.
