Join us at the Military, Defence and Aerospace Electronics technical conference and exhibition in Reading, UK on 30 November 2010.
At MAE 2010, we will be running a workshop (and hosting a stand).
The design of the processor which lies at the heart of complex embedded systems can influence our ability to predict and control key system characteristics, such as the worst-case execution time (WCET) of tasks and their “jitter” behaviour.
During this workshop, we will consider the impact of processor features on low-level system behaviour (such as the timing of tasks). We also consider the “ripple effects” of such features as we consider the links between processor features and the certification of systems developed according to DO-254 / DO-178 and similar guidelines.
Many of the systems we will be concerned with in this workshop have a long service life (measured in decades). We will therefore also examine ways in which component obsolescence can lead to significant changes in the system behaviour during the system lifetime if an inappropriate choice of processor is made at design time.
The workshop will involve an introductory presentation (1 hour) followed by a hands-on session (2 hours).

MAE 2010 is the only UK event which focuses on the technical challenges mil/aero electronics engineers and managers face, the new and emerging technologies the industry provides, and the opportunities these open up for the future.
MAE 2010 helps these technologists to make the right design decisions for their current and future projects, through gaining invaluable knowledge and insight of the critical issues through the technical seminar programme, which in turn helps in predicting and fulfilling the needs of their customers. The conference and exhibition also provides an unequalled opportunity to network with industry peers, VIPs, and leading suppliers of hardware and software solutions. If your job involves the design, development, integration, test or analysis of electronic components and embedded systems for the European military, defence and aerospace industries then you should attend this important and unique industry event.
