Making Open Source projects work for the long haul
At the beginning of an Open Source Project, you often start with a solution, commercial or noncommercial, with a known quality level. Then you go about customizing it by adding patches for project specific components, specific peripherals, performance optimizations, power management optimizations, etc. Over the life span of your project it is hard to guarantee it will continue to function with the quality level of the original release.
Manage the Code, Manage the Device: Open Source Governance in Linux Embedded Systems
Today's abundance of consumer devices has given rise to the pervasiveness of embedded Linux systems. From the digital home and office to smartphones and tablets to automobiles with open source in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) systems, Linux-based software is connecting people and devices like never before. This growth in the embedded Linux marketplace has created a complex multi-source software supply chain as developers combine in-house developed packages with packages easily found on sites managed by various associations or groups, as well as individuals who offer free code. Learning how to manage the open source development process has become crucial to organizations' success and risk mitigation.
Multi-core Simplified, The MontaVista Approach to Multi-core SoC Resource Allocation and Control
MontaVista provides a Linux-based programming environment that can scale from high-performance bare metal dedicated spaces, to an RTOS-like multi-threaded run-time, up to a fully virtualized Linux SMP process model. Application developers can now deploy a single operating system, Linux, across all of the cores on a multi-core processor and avoid the complexity of multiple run-times (e.g., Linux, an RTOS and a hypervisor). This webinar describes the approach to deliver a highly configurable, scalable, and virtualized Linux environment that includes a very low overhead run-time capability that can match bare-machine and/or RTOS performance and lower your overall development cost.
40/100G Apps: Achieving Top Speed
The AdvancedTCA Virtual Summit features technical sessions exploring design in LTE infrastructure, 40/100G networks, defense applications, and deep packet inspection, and a special panel led by PICMG.s Joe Pavlat celebrating the 10 year milestone and looking forward at what's next for the technology.
Keys to a Successful Services Engagement
A recent VDC study showed an over 80% increase in the number of projects that will be moving from a previous operating system environment to a group or open source operating system environment. Coupled with this shift in the baseline software are new disruptive technologies like multicore processors and new I/O capabilities that may leave core competency gaps in your development. You may be investigation services options to add experience or additional engineering for your project. But blindly throwing money at a services company can be a recipe for disaster. Proper planning, identification of goals and expertise needs are a key to a successful professional services engagement. Join MontaVista software as they share their insights on what makes a successful services engagement, key challenges and pitfalls of moving to an open source software baseline, and MontaVista areas of services expertise.

Tips and Techniques for Improving Embedded Linux Boot Times
The requirement for instant on capability or 'fast boot' in embedded Linux has become a necessity. From cellphones to mobile internet devices (MIDs) to automobiles, devices are smarter and more connected today than ever before. As a result, customers' expectations for instant data and multimedia access has increased, delays are unacceptable. With the majority of new device designs using Linux, it is essential to optimize the boot time to meet users expectations. This webinar contains a lot of tips and techniques to help you optimize your Linux boot time.
Migrating Existing Applications to Multi-Core Environments: Using the Right Tools and the Right Approach – Nick Pollitt, Senior Product Manager, MontaVista Software and Skip Hovsmith, Director of Applications, CriticalBlue
Multi-core processors are quickly taking hold in the market. New device designs are started every day with the intention of leveraging the power multi-core processors deliver. But what about your existing applications that must run on these new devices. view Nick Pollitt page
Adapting to the Changing Communications Infrastructure with Linux and Open Source – Corey Minyard, Carrier Grade Edition Architect, MontaVista Software
In recent years Network Equipment Providers (NEPs) and Telecom companies have taken a new approach in how they develop their applications. Today, these companies turn to Linux and open source software as their development platform of choice. Why? view Corey Minyard page
A New Approach to Linux System Build and Design – Jim Lewis, Senior Field Applications Engineer, MontaVista Software
Numerous obstacles push software engineers off the path of quickly delivering embedded products to market. Each of these obstacles serves to disrupt a streamlined development process:
In this webinar learn how MontaVista helps you answer the following questions:
Streamlining the embedded Linux development process with MontaVista Linux 6 – Nick Pollitt, Senior Product Manager, MontaVista Software
MontaVista Linux 6 meets embedded developers where they are in the development cycle with a complete embedded Linux distribution and developer tools, to help streamline the embedded Linux development process. Starting new design projects with semiconductor or open source Linux technology is very common. You do this in order to get a quick and early start to development. However, serious challenges arise later in the development process when software limitations, defects, and difficulties arise, well after the board is booted. While developers know embedded Linux commercialization partners can offer tools, technical support, and bug fixes proven to improve design outcomes, it can be difficult to transition from a homegrown approach to a commercial solution.

Addressing the Top 5 Pains in Linux System Build and Design – Klaas van Gend, Solutions Architect, MontaVista Software
It is not easy to develop embedded Linux systems from the requirements all the way through to manufacturing. As a system designer and build engineer, you face a multitude of issues that must be remedied in order to deliver a successful commercial product. Once the hurdle of selecting your hardware – and getting it to run – is overcome, the work of a system designer is just beginning. You now must address complex questions like:

Migrating Legacy RTOS Device Drivers to Embedded Linux – William Weinberg, Analyst and Consultant, Linux Pundit.com
With the accelerating pace of application development and evermore compressed product life cycles, the ability to re-use and migrate legacy software to new platforms is paramount. Migrating from legacy RTOS-based designs to embedded Linux presents a range of engineering challenges, but also opportunities for refining I/O architecture and formalizing system interfaces.
