Embedded E-cast

Modern businesses use a multitude of assets to manage their day to day operations. .

Given the influx of IoT devices flooding the market, getting your product to market quickly and having your product stand out against the competition are key to success. Learning how to design, build, deploy, and manage your devices takes time and knowledge.

Connecting operational systems with the higher-level IT or cloud systems is a key challenge facing the next generation of Industrial IoT and Industrie 4. 0 systems.

Internet of Things applications are advancing past prototypes and proof of concepts into commercial use. As these systems get deployed, the security architecture enters a new danger zone with high stakes if a security breach occurs.

Commercial processors and FPGAs promise and deliver performance advantages for military communications systems, sensor applications, radar, and electronic warfare programs at a lower price point than custom-designed systems. But to accomplish that performance they must generate a lot of heat and even with power-saving techniques added by the chip manufacturers the thermals still are too high for use in military battlefield systems.

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) landscape today is a confusing mix of proprietary connectivity technologies and standards. Some are general purpose, some are mostly appropriate for enterprise applications, and others are optimized for a narrow set of domain-specific use cases in vertically integrated systems.

Every developer is in search of an embedded operating system platform that boasts performance and security, which are the hallmarks of the new QNX Software Development Platform 7. 0.

Embedded and IoT systems today don't typically stop with the device or sensor. Today's embedded systems are connected to gateways and industry applications to meet a specific need for that industry.

Developing a new cloud based solution for managing, analyzing and taking action on data from an Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) deployment is not an easy task if you're new to it. While there are a lot of available resources to coach you through the steps, working from a proven model is the best starting point.

In this lead-off class, we will briefly review the principles of the IoT and some of the basic configurations that we may encounter (star with gateway, tree, and mesh). We will look at the major issues we face as these networks become more complex, including data issues, communication issues, device monitoring and troubleshooting, and system security.

Autonomous aircraft -- from hand-thrown unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to high-flying jet-powered platforms are close to being certified to fly in multiple sections of the national airspace. The main hurdles remaining are safety related such as properly certifying their hardware and software for flight and convincing the public as well as commercial pilots they are safe even with certified equipment.

IoT known for its unique architecture involving sensors, embedded devices and gateways, and data center/cloud applications. Once the architecture is understood, defining platforms that implement the architecture is the next logical step toward effective deployment of a variety of IoT applications.

IoT encompasses a wide range of embedded, network, and cloud systems where the value is unlocked by the data gathered from sensor and edge devices that can be used by gateways, cloud applications, and analytics to drive significant value. However, communications is not as simple as one protocol, one service, one language.

Military radar and electronic warfare (EW) system designers are leveraging Gallium Nitride (GaN) technology more and more for their RF solutions as the price for GaN devices drops and as the industry learns more about GaN's performance benefits. GaN enables power density and higher efficiencies not possible before in active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar systems, which in turn enables more multifunctional and adaptive radar and EW systems.

There are many frustrations with DOORS users today. DOORS Next Generation, based on Rational Jazz technology, was released in 2012 - a long time ago in technology time.
