Remote Direct Memory Introspection (Rice, Duke, MIT)
By Technical Paper Link - 22 Aug, 2023 - Comments: 0

A technical paper titled "Remote Direct Memory Introspection" was published by researchers at Rice University, Duke University, and MIT. This paper won a distinguished paper award at the recent 32nd USENIX Security Symposium. Abstract: "Hypervisors have played a critical role in cloud security, but they introduce a large trusted computing base (TCB) and incur a heavy performance tax. As of... » read more

Working With RISC-V
By Ed Sperling - 17 Aug, 2021 - Comments: 0

RISC-V is coming on strong, but working with this open-source processor core isn't as simple as plugging in a commercial piece of IP. Zdenek Prikryl, CTO at Codasip, talks about utilizing hypervisors and open source tools and extensions to the RISC-V instruction set architecture, where design teams can run into problems, what will change as the architecture becomes more mature, the difference b... » read more

Using Hypervisor For IVI And AUTOSAR Consolidation On An ECU
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 08 Jan, 2020 - Comments: 0

Current approaches used to tackle the complexities described earlier in this paper (cockpit domain units) are both cost-prohibitive and lacking in performance. Utilizing virtualization in automotive software architecture provides a better approach when taking on these complexities. This can be achieved by encapsulating different heterogeneous automotive platforms inside virtual machines running... » read more

Carriers Push Datacenter-Style Virtualization
By Gale Morrison - 01 Jun, 2017 - Comments: 0

The world’s largest telco carriers are leading a broad movement to bring data center-style virtualization to the core of their telecommunications networks. In an industry known for being extremely conservative when it comes to change, this one appears to be significant. The move has set off a scramble among a number of companies for unified control and forwarding plane designs, starting fr... » read more

Name Changes Arteris changed its name to ArterisIP. The company said the name change better reflects what the company does, which is provide IP for SoC communication on-die and between die. Mentor Graphics also modified its name, following last week's announcement that the acquisition by Siemens has been completed. The company is now officially called Mentor, A Siemens Business. It also ... » read more

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

Side-Channel Attacks Make Devices Vulnerable
By Brian Bailey - 17 Oct, 2016 - Comments: 0

As the world begins to take security more seriously, it becomes evident that a device is only as secure as its weakest component. No device can be made secure by protecting against a single kind of attack. Hypervisors add a layer of separation between tasks making sure that one task cannot steal secrets from another. Protection of the JTAG port is necessary to prevent access underneath the h... » read more

Simplifying Software Separation With Real-Time Virtualization
By James Scobie - 13 Oct, 2016 - Comments: 0

Electronic systems are becoming more complex across multiple markets including automotive, industrial control and healthcare. Vehicles are beginning to drive themselves, industrial robots are becoming increasingly collaborative, and medical systems are automated to assist with surgery or deliver medication. This trend is not a new phenomenon. What was a high-end capability in the last generatio... » read more

Hypervisors: Help Or Hindrance?
By Brian Bailey - 29 Sep, 2016 - Comments: 0

Hypervisors are seeing an increased level of adoption, but do they help or hinder the development and verification process? The answer may depend on your perspective. In the hardware world, system-level integration is rapidly becoming a roadblock in the development process. While each of the pieces may be known to work separately, as soon as they are put together, the interactions between th... » read more

Embedded Evolution
By Brian Bailey - 26 Aug, 2016 - Comments: 1

The design of embedded systems has changed drastically from the days when I was directly involved with them. My first job after leaving college was to design aircraft control systems. I had the dubious honor to be working on the first civilian fly-by-wire aircraft – the Airbus A310. The reason I say dubious is that we had so many eyes trained on us, and that system contained so much redundanc... » read more
