This article shows how linking vehi-
cles to the Internet of Things (IoT)
will make journeys faster, cleaner
and cheaper.
Success story about a configurable
system for air traffic controllers
12
Security, availability and efficiency have emerged as the top
requirements imposed on embedded computing projects. Apply-
ing a combination of advanced technology and iesy™ Project
Management made a significant contribution to improving flight
safety at Deutsche Flugsicherung (DFS).
Ethernet compliance testing
with an oscilloscope
19
In industry and the private sector, it is dif-
ficult to imagine a world without Ethernet
data exchange. Automated test solutions
that support compliance tests on Ethernet
interfaces are available for digital oscillo-
scopes. A test wizard on the R&S RTO from
Rohde & Schwarz guides the user effort-
lessly through the measurements
New flash management architecture
enables MLC for industrial storage
25
This article describes hyMap™ flash man-
agement architecture, a new sub-page-
based mapping and flash translation layer
approach which significantly improves write
amplification, increases endurance and ran-
dom write performance. A low random write
WAF results in high random write IOPS, preventing stress on the
flash and giving the flash device a longer life.
SoC design enables easy and
fast migration of platform solutions
28
The Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC is
suited for implementing a platform strategy
for most embedded applications. With its
integration between ARM processing and
FPGA logic and I/O programmability, it allows
every level of an enterprise to harmonize their
development efforts and bring highly differ-
entiated product lines to market faster.
How to get to the
tailored industrial PC fast?
38
On the basis of standardized building blocks, MSC Technologies
has developed the first embedded system from the new NanoS-
erver family under the brand DSM Computer. The flexible Box IPC
is based on a fourth-generation Intel Core i3/i5/i7 processor and
the Intel Q87 Express chipset from the desktop series.
