Turbocharge HPEC system design with HPC development tools - Story

July 25, 2016
As parallel programming grows in importance and popularity, the critical challenge has become how to intelligently manage, develop, and debug the increasingly complex code. Traditional tools such as trace analysis, serial debuggers, and the venerable "printf"statement just aren't up to the task. Although some commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) vendors and customers in the embedded-defense space have attempted to develop their own parallel programming tools, the task has proved difficult and the resulting tools are far from full-featured. What's more, using proprietary development tools can add risk to a program's cost and schedule. The good news: A better source of tools for designing cutting-edge high-performance embedded computing (HPEC) systems already exists in an adjacent market - the commercial high-performance computing (HPC) market. Sourcing proven and powerful tools from the HPC community, long supported by an expansive user base, can greatly speed delivery time while decreasing costs and program risk.

10 Gigabit backplane Ethernet for embedded supercomputers - Story

June 14, 2016
Designers of next-generation high-performance embedded computing (HPEC) solutions for demanding intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) systems applications got a boost from the introduction of Intel's multicore Xeon D system-on-chip (SoC) processor earlier in 2016. This device provides as many as 16 cores in the same power footprint as earlier four-core devices and features the rugged ball-grid-array (BGA) packages and extended temperature range needed for deployed applications.

FMC+ standard propels embedded design to new heights - Story

April 29, 2016
The updated FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC+) specification has been developed and refined over the past year, promising unparalleled I/O density and backward compatibility. The VITA 57.4 working group has approved the spec and will present it for ANSI balloting in early 2016. The following article takes a closer look at this important new standard to see its implications for advanced embedded design.
