FAA DO-178B safety critical applications must follow rigorous software processes. CERT-C is a secure coding standard published by Software Engineering Institute, Carnegie Mellon. See how to obtain DO-178B static analysis credit using automated static analysis tools and how to comply with the static analyzable rule in the CERT-C standard.

Join Green Hills Software for an informative session that will cover development challenges associated with adopting multicore processors in new designs. We’ll cover common use cases for multicore devices as well as a complete multicore toolkit that includes development tools, operating systems, and virtualization technology. Utilizing this toolkit enables developers to unlock the power of next generation multicore designs.

Direct Attached (PCI Express over cable) computing is a powerful technology that can be implemented in almost any application to expand slot count, attach high speed devices to an existing system, and communicate between PC’s at up to 80Gb/s and much less cost than other solutions. Discover how these easily accessible and available products can be implemented in your application for higher productivity at lower costs. See the future of cluster computing using PCIe over cable in the data center and in HPC environments.

Come hear about the future of Embedded Solutions, featuring Intel's Embedded processor family and Insyde Software's award winning firmware and support services. Intel will explore the technical merits of its microprocessors solutions and fully discuss which ones may be appropriate for the listener’s design & development requirement while Insyde will discuss and provide technical training in order to help you get the most out your current or future bios projects. Also, we will have a Drawing for an Intel/Insyde enabled HP Netbook, so be sure to Enter the Drawing at the Seminar for a chance to win (must attend seminar to enter Netbook drawing).

Embedded systems are evolving quickly with sophisticated human machine interfaces that combine audio/video playback, enhanced graphics, and internet connectivity. This session looks at building advanced HMIs and all the challenges that come with it. Learn how to integrate advanced graphical tooling into an embedded environment, addressing the two most commonly raised objections: adequate performance and rock-solid reliability. Explore engineering concerns about integrating everything from high-level HMI applications to low-level embedded controls without compromising real-time reliability or HMI performance. Finally, discover how to save time in the integration process by creating a seamless interface, blending content from any number of existing applications.

For high speed real-time applications, the interconnect that is used can dramatically effect performance. Applications such as simulators and distributed "sensor to processor" systems benefit from lower latency and higher throughput. We will show how to reduce latency and improve system performance with our latest interconnect technologies. Find out how to improve you system performance by implementing techniques such as reflected and shared memory. Understand how to improve application performance with superior sockets performance using our Ultra fast Supersockets implementation.

Embedded Linux development teams assemble custom Linux distributions for each device they produce. The processes of building, maintaining, and re-using custom distributions requires infrastructure that is usually built and maintained by the development teams. In addition, how distributions are made available is changing. Source based distributions are now more common and provide greater flexibility in building a custom distribution. In recent years, open-source standards have emerged that have helped streamline and drive this process. Built on these standards, the MontaVista Integration Platform provides a flexible approach to embedded Linux development, using a source based approach and giving developers greater control. In this session, learn the differences between binary and source-based development approaches, and how to transition to source-based development using the MontaVista Integration Platform and open source standards.
