We will demonstrate how to develop, test, and validate real-time control algorithms using Simulink and Stateflow, without needing to acquire development tool chains, building devices drivers, or board support packages(BSPs). We’ll discuss how to test these algorithms in simulation, and automatically generate code so they be integrated with the rest of your system. We will also show how to deploy your algorithms to a real-time system using an x86 compatible embedded platform, Real-Time Workshop, and xPC Target. Lastly, we will demonstrate how these algorithms may retargeted into a production environment.

We will show you how the latest innovations in copper and fiber optic-based PCIe 2.0 adapters can take your application to the next level while taking your costs to new lows. See how PCIe over fiber can network systems, expand system I/O capabilities, create data recording systems and create an ultra-low latency link for just about any application. Learn how PCIe over fiber compares to other networking protocols such as PCIe over copper, Infiniband and Ethernet as well as other storage protocols such as SCSI, eSATA, SAS and Fiber Channel. By migrating the already stellar performing One Stop Systems MediaVault high speed video storage systems, DiMeda ultra-high speed multi-stream video streaming platforms and the Talon 4 ultra-rugged, flight-worthy, military storage systems to the next generation of fiber-optic PCIe 2.0 cable technology, see how your storage application can truly fly at sustained throughput of up to 1.6GB/s. Learn about the PCI Express cable and fiber standardization efforts. Join us while we show you the latest fiber optic transceivers, copper and fiber-based HBAs and system-level innovations that make PCIe cable speeds up to 160GB/s and beyond possible up to hundreds of meters for networking systems, true real-time data recording and creating high speed distributed data and storage clusters. Whether your application is military, medical, broadcast, high-speed instrumentation, converged communications or simulation, you cannot afford to miss this free technology session.

We will introduce the Polyspace code verification tool for achieving robust software quality. Learn about a unique formal-method approach called 'abstract interpretation' - which makes it possible to find errors that other techniques can miss. Through demonstrations and examples, we will show how it helps detect errors in embedded C/C++/Ada code and prove that the software contains no run-time errors. You will find this valuable if you: work with critical C, C++ or Ada code; rely on dynamic testing, coverage and code reviews to find runtime errors; would like a way to prove that no more runtime errors remain in your code; seek qualification or certification under DO-178B, ISO 26262, IEC 61508, EN 50128.

Do most embedded projects need an RTOS? Its a good question. The answer lies in the very nature of embedded devices. Devices that, in many cases, are manufactured in the thousands, or millions, of units. Devices where even a $1 reduction in per-unit hardware costs can save the manufacturer a small fortune. Savings aside, the services provided by an RTOS make many computing problems easier to solve, particularly when multiple activities compete for a systems resources. This session explores what is realtime, what makes a realtime system and when its needed. Attend and learn about some of the critical elements of realtime computing such as scheduling, priority inversion, interrupt handling and reliability.

There are several 100 drivers and modules in the Linux kernel distribution. Learn exactly how static source code analysis can help improve the quality and reliability of these (and your) modules. Come find out what static source code analysis is and see examples of analyzing Linux device driver sources.

Have you experienced: -Products losing market share, or causing missions to fail, because they use too much Space, Weight, and/or Power (SWaP)? -High IT costs because multiple computers sit on your developers or operators desks to process data at different levels of classification, e.g. Unclassified, Secret, Top Secret? -Servers in your organization being hacked, costing unsustainable losses in productivity, reputation, dollars, or mission risk? -Customers mandating the use of a "Separation Kernel" or "Secure Hypervisor" in the systems you are building? -Customers requiring "certified" or "certifiable" "High Robustness" and/or "EAL6+" for your next project? We invite you to attend this seminar to learn how an absolutely secure operating system will benefit you and your team.

In this session we will define what Hardware In the Loop (HIL) means and examine some actual cases where it is being used. We will see how HIL testing is invaluable for validating complex systems when software and hardware are involved. We will also look at a tool that facilitates the use of models created with The Mathworks Matlab and Simulink products in an HIL situation. This tool will help to integrate the models into a Real-Time environment and easily connect model I/O points to actual hardware I/O points.
