Implications of Migrating to Windows Embedded Standard 7 (WES7) [ Source: VersaLogic Corp. ]

October 2010- This paper describes some of the differences between Windows Embedded Standard 7 (WES7) and Windows Embedded Standard 2009 (WES2009). WES7 is the next-generation offering in Microsoft's family of embedded operating systems. Specifically, WES7 is the successor to WES2009, which in turn was the successor to Windows XP Embedded (XPe). The goal is to provide OEM developers with a detailed understanding of the differences between the two embedded products in regards to building and deploying a fully functional ...

Building Smarter Products with Requirements Engineering [ Source: IBM ]

April 2010- Developing smarter products can be challenging; there are many benefits, however, including improving your customer's lives and helping drive your revenue goals. Managing successful smarter product projects hinges on adopting a requirements-driven development process — one that can help you prevent costly incompatibility failures, delayed product launches, and assist in managing complex, interdependent engineering tasks. Learn how in the Deliver smarter products with requirements engineering white paper.

Benefits Of Embedded Database [ Source: ITTIA ]

May 2009- This white paper discusses the benefits of incorporating an embedded database into applications for embedded, intelligent, and mobile devices. An embedded database library is an inexpensive replacement for flat files that gives applications access to relational database features, such as transaction logging and indexed search, without the overhead of an enterprise database. Applications developed with an embedded database are scalable and protected from data loss by leveraging decades of data management expertise.

Secure Anchor Point [ Source: CPU Technology ]

December 2009- As the world computing infrastructure becomes likewise complicated, network and system communications have significant problems in identifying who to trust. Corporate and government personnel enter systems through a variety of methods: remote access, wireless PDAs, laptops via VPN from public access points. Establishing trust includes the identity of hardware and processor nodes, the identity and authenticity of software instructions, and the identity and authenticity of system users. Describing and categorizing all of the different types ...

Transmission Control Scheme for Fast RFID Object Identification [ Source: ETH Zurich ]

January 2008- The scheme specifically addresses characteristics of the RFID domain such as the strong capture effect. It also makes no restrictive assumptions on channel traffic. Experimental evidence and simulation results are presented showing that the proposed transmission control scheme performs well in practice. The results indicate that the time it takes to identify a large tag population can be reduced significantly when compared to existing approaches.
