Real-Time Virtualization – How Hard Can It Be?
By Jon Taylor - 09 Feb, 2017 - Comments: 0

What’s the first association you make when you hear of virtualization? Server farms? ‘The cloud’? Most people don’t think of embedded systems - never mind hard real-time - yet these are areas where virtualization is now becoming commonplace. Markets such as industrial, automotive and medical—many of which also have requirements around functional safety for products like car braking... » read more

A Security Foundation For Billions Of Devices
By Thomas Ensergueix - 27 Oct, 2016 - Comments: 0

October 19, 2004 was a date like any other, and will probably not mean much to most people. However, if you are part of the Embedded community, that precise date was transformational for the microcontroller (MCU) industry. It was the day that ARM announced the first Cortex-M processor, bringing the advantages of a common architecture to the microcontroller market. Embedded developers quickly... » read more

ARM Cortex-A32 – The Logical Choice For Rich Embedded
By Arm - 28 Sep, 2016 - Comments: 0

The whitepaper explains how the ARM Cortex-A32 processor is an ideal stepping stone into the Cortex-A family for traditional Cortex-M products that can benefit from a richer operating system environment, or from the additional performance and features that Cortex-A processors can provide. The paper details the enhancements of the Cortex-A32 and draws architectural comparisons to the features... » read more

Addressing Design Challenges In Heterogeneous Multicore Embedded Systems
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 27 May, 2015 - Comments: 0

Single-core processor designs for purpose-built devices used to rule the day. Now, heterogeneous multicore systems are quickly becoming the de facto architecture as devices are tasked to do more complex functions faster and more efficiently. In this paper, we’ll explore why hetero/multicore systems have become so popular and why many of our current procedures and practices must change if we a... » read more
