A fully integrated COTS approach for PNT to ground vehicles in GPS-denied environments - Story
June 07, 2018
Growing awareness of the potential vulnerabilities introduced by the military's dependence on GPS data has driven demand for new deployed approaches for detecting threats to GPS and providing position, navigation, and timing (PNT) information to the warfighter in GPS-denied environments.

Pushing airborne ISR data recorders to new performance heights - Story
April 30, 2018
Capturing wire rate data from today's compute-intensive intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) sensor platforms brings new meaning to the old metaphor "drinking from a fire hose." Airborne ISR systems may have hundreds of cameras and other sensors that generate data that needs to be captured and stored for later analysis. Such sensor systems can't be slowed down to let the recording system to catch up with the flow of data.

Introducing Gen 5 VPX - Story
March 21, 2018
A new, higher-performance era of VPX (VITA 46) computing was launched in January - at the Embedded Tech Trends (ETT) 2018 Conference in Austin, Texas - with the announcement that Gen 5 VPX data rates will run on today's standard VPX connector. The initial Gen 5 VPX protocols are expected to be 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100G-KR4) and Infiniband EDR [enhanced data rate]. In addition, a next-generation VPX connector, the MULTIGIG RT3, which is able to support data rates of 25.8 Gbaud, also made its debut.

Modernizing a serial processing code to obtain optimal performance on an OpenVPX digital signal processing module - Story
March 12, 2018
Serial algorithms can be evolved to a scalable, multithreaded, multiprocess implementation using ubiquitous and well-established high-performance computing (HPC) programming frameworks such as OpenMP and MPI. Such techniques are used in compute-intensive defense, aerospace, and industrial applications.

Bringing the benefits of safety-certifiable COTS to the system level - Story
February 19, 2018
Avionics integrators and aircraft certification agencies now understand and accept that certifiable commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) assemblies can be designed with a complete set of DO-254 and DO-178B data artifacts that will support system and aircraft certification. The next phase: Defining the advantages of these products on the subsystem level when bringing the cost, time, and risk-lowering benefits of safety-certifiable COTS to avionics system designers.

VME lives! - Story
February 09, 2018
As we start a new year, it is customary to look ahead at emerging technologies, both evolutionary and revolutionary. But as the calendar changes, it is also a time to reflect on the past and where we are today. Although recent years have produced few entirely new platforms designed from the ground up, our industry continues to deliver higher levels of performance and new capabilities within existing systems.
