Covering technical tips and techniques for developing safety-critical avionics software in compliance with DO-178B (up to, and including, Level A design assurance), this webinar features industry experts who will highlight the processes, procedures and tools used to achieve avionics certification on the latest civil airliners. DDC-I, a supplier of software and professional services for mission- and safety-critical applications for over 30 years, and LDRA, a pioneer and global leader in automated software verification, source code analysis, and test tools covering the full development lifecycle will share their joint experiences in achieving successful avionics certification.

OpenSystems Media is proud to announce the first EDA Virtual Conference, entitled EDA: The Next Big Things. Engineers from around the world are invited to learn about Analog and Mixed Signal, System-on-Chip, High-Level Design, and Verification.

The requirement for instant on capability or fast boot in embedded Linux has become a necessity. From cellphones to mobile internet devices (MIDs) to automobiles, devices are smarter and more connected today than ever before.

The need to increase performance on a number of fronts - compute, I/O and graphics - is making it harder for Mil/Aero system designers to satisfy these requirements with PC/104-based boards. The PC/104-Express and related PC104 standards use a complicated stack-up methodology that increases complexity, takes up more space and adds cost, especially when deploying the latest processors required for higher performance applications.

The security of our systems is becoming more critical in todays competitive and hostile world. Whether one builds commercial or defense systems, the need to have those systems protected from network or physical attacks is critical to safe guarding your technology.

For centuries, signage was a fixed, static medium. To consumers who have grown up with Hollywood or Bollywood and ubiquitous TV, this was uninvolving and easily ignored.

OpenSystems Media presents the first OpenVPX Education and Training Virtual Conference. Engineers from around the world are invited to learn about topics as VME 64 vs VXS vs OpenVPX, System Level Design, SDR, Radar Processing, SIGINT, and more.

The use of Freescale's P4080 8-core processor to build highly flexible, scalable and secure applications. Also will touch on the ability to map classic single core multi-board multi-function systems into a single P4080 based SBC solution.

Avionics software development brings together a challenging and unique blend of safety-critical platforms, reliable software, sophisticated displays, and user input software. This is even more true when the system must meet safety-critical requirements per RTCA DO-178 Level A or other safety or security certification criteria.

Traditionally developers of embedded systems that require security have opted for one of two approaches: either design the system with proprietary hardware and software components, or add security applications and functionality on top of a non-secure system. A more pragmatic approach that can save time and cost is to use a secure platform based on virtualization technologies.
