Benefits for embedded webinar forum



Much of the content will be based around the embedded computers development and validation of Autosar compliant code and the development of code for specific devices such as the BOSCH GTM, the AURIX and Freescale's Nexus based Qorivva solutions. Some of the presentations will also touch on the debugging of code on multicore systems. Delegates will also have the opportunity to discuss their specific challenges and requirements.

“Developing reliable software for safety critical embedded computers  can be very challenging,” said Barry Lock. “We have recently developed several important new techniques, such as ‘long-term trace’. It is this kind of innovation that is enabling faster and more effective code development. I think engineers will greatly benefit from this embedded computers Forum.”

Bridge your system together with embedded computer



For systems where there is a clear single host device and other processors and accelerators operate as slave devices, embedded computer is a good choice for connectivity. However, for connecting many processors together in more complex systems, embedded computer has significant limitations in topology and support for peer-to-peer connectivity.
Many developers are looking to leverage Ethernet as a solution for connecting processors in embedded computers. Ethernet has evolved significantly in the past 35 years. Similar to the increase in computer processing speeds, its peak bandwidth has grown steadily. Currently available Ethernet Network Interface Controller (NIC) cards can support 40 Gbps operating over four pairs of SERDES with 10 Gbps signaling. Such NIC cards contain significant processing on their own to be able to transmit and receive packets at these speeds.
