Luxoft launches a new version of its Symtavision timing analysis solution for optimizing embedded real-time systems.

HIPPEROS adds hardware acceleration, fast multicore IPC and mixed criticality scheduling, to its multicore RTOS for high performance embedded systems.

The IoT Secure Systems Summit 2017 runs in London on Tuesday 25 April, and the speaker lineup has been expanded.

PC giant Asus has jumped on the Raspberry Pi bandwagon with Tinker Board.

Imagination Technologies is aiming to bring sophisticated gaming to mid-range mobiles with a series of PowerVR graphics processors.

The Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3 has a quad core 64bit ARM Cortex-A53 processor running at up to 1.2GHz, within the original Compute Module form-factor.

The TI-Innovator Hub is a palm-sized box with a microcontroller, red and RGB LEDs, a light sensor and sounders inside, plus IO lines to connect with the world outside.

ARMv8-M processor cores including the Cortex-M23 and Cortex-M33 cores, are now supported by Lauterbach with its TRACE32 debug tools. These are small footprint cores with similar performance to the existing Cortex-M3/M4 processors. ARM Cortex-M23 and Cortex-M33 are the first embedded processors based on the ARMv8-M architecture, bringing ARM TrustZone to the most constrained IoT nodes. Cortex-M33 features configuration options including a co-processor interface, DSP ...

ARM licensee Silicon Labs is confident that the change of ownership at the Cambridge-based processor firm earlier this year will not be a problem. In fact, ARM’s role in embedded low power microcontroller applications could become even stronger. Daniel Cooley, general manager of the IoT business at Silicon Labs expects the change of ownership at ARM to have a positive effect on ARM’s position ...

Qualcomm’s first 10nm server processor is also ARM’s first 10nm server processor and an indication that at last the mobile processor specialist is being taken seriously in the server processor market. In 2017 and ARM executive in the CPU business told me the server business will become important for the processor IP firm within two years. Maybe he got it right. ...
