SQL Server 2008's Dynamic Duo: Management Views and Functions | 2009-08-25 | Global Knowledge |
| The dynamic management views and functions, which were introduced in SQL 2005, have increased in number and provide improved function in SQL 2008. Taking advantage of these new objects gives you quick and easy access to in-depth information on nearly every aspect of SQL's internal workings. Their uses include, at a minimum, getting performance data, index usage statistics, and object dependency information. This white paper will explore a few of their capabilities and give examples to show how they can ease the workload of a database administrator. They are well worth the investment in time and effort.

Korenix Embedded Systems - White Paper: Industrial Router Firewall and VPN Platform | 2009-08-21 | Korenix Technology |
| Off late Industrial Control and communications applications, the networks allowing these systems to be controlled and communicate are growing larger and more complex. Designing a network built on embedded systems technology requires that the embedded platform be robust, secure and manageable as commercial and management networks converge with industrial control and communications systems. The purpose of this white paper is to give an overview of the hardware features of the Korenix JetBox 9500 series, and how it can be implemented as an industrial embedded platform to facilitate the requirements of complex networks that require industrial grade routers, firewalls and VPN servers.

Green Embedded Computing and the MPC8536E PowerQUICC III Processor | 2009-06-16 | Freescale Semiconductor |
| Growing energy demands from embedded electronics and increasing evidence of dramatic global climate change are generating greater environmental and cultural pressure for green solutions in embedded computing applications. This, coupled with continued expectations for higher performance embedded computing with each new product generation, despite environmental concerns, is impacting the future usage models of embedded processing systems. To balance the performance required for powerful new electronic applications with rising concerns over energy consumption, environmentally aware "Green" movements and government regulations and programs are driving manufacturers to develop intelligent strategies for optimizing performance within specific energy budgets.

Unified Server Configurator: IT and Systems Management Overview | 2009-04-07 | Dell |
| Systems management has typically been a key part of the IT administrator's job. Being able to install an operating system, updating firmware to satisfy function and policies requirements, configuring devices and getting the most out of an IT network are integral aspects of this role. Over the years, Dell has provided many tools to assist the administrator. Starting with tools such as DSA, Systems Build and Update Utility, and DTK that shipped on multiple CDs, Dell then developed a single software tool DVD, Systems Build and Update Utility. Storing, retrieving, and using these multiple disks in their many versions has, however, had an increasingly negative impact on Customer Experience.

Utilizing SIMD Instructions on the INtime RTOS With the Intel IPP Library | 2009-03-01 | TenAsys |
| Applying DSPs (Digital Signal Processors) to real-time embedded systems can result in significant performance improvements, especially where complex mathematical algorithms are involved. Algorithms that perform repetitive operations on large data sets are particularly well suited to the application of DSPs. The data to be transformed can be collected and processed in bulk or it can be continuously streamed (sampled) data that must be processed in a finite period of time to generate a real-time control signal. Motion control, image processing, speech recognition, and computer vision applications are some of the many applications that can benefit from the application of DSP hardware.

Designing Embedded Systems for Testability | 2009-01-01 | Intel |
| The purpose of this paper is to provide a context of how to utilize the test and debug features to design systems using Intel embedded processors and chipsets. There are various interfaces of the design which must be implemented. In some cases the interfaces must be shared, depending upon operation at a particular point in time. For example, the eXtended Debug Port (XDP) port utilizing the Test Access Port (TAP) controller during debug and manufacturing/self test equipment utilizing the TAP controller during board verification. Understanding the implementation is key to designing a successful product in terms of time-to-market. This application note specifically focuses on the TAP controller facilities, XDP facilities, and the XOR facilities provided on the chips.

Installing and Running QNX Neutrino on an Embedded System | 2009-01-01 | VersaLogic |
| This paper is a quick-start guide to the QNX Neutrino operating system, with special consideration given to VersaLogic products. It can help to familiarize new users with QNX and avoid some of the common pitfalls encountered during installation and operation. QNX Neutrino is the latest offering from QNX Software Systems, Ltd. (QSSL), founded in 1980 and headquartered in Ottawa, Canada. It is an operating system designed from the ground up for embedded systems. It is based on a real-time microkernel, and maintains a strong focus on reliability and modularity. While it can run on very lean devices, it can also scale to large distributed or Symmetric MultiProcessing (SMP) systems.

The Energy Cost of SSL in Deeply Embedded Systems | 2008-06-01 | Sun Microsystems |
| As the number of potential applications for tiny, battery-powered, "Mote"-like, deeply embedded devices grows, so does the need to simplify and secure interactions with such devices. Embedding a secure web server (capable of HTTP over SSL, aka HTTPS), enables these devices to be monitored and controlled securely via a user-friendly, browser-based interface. This paper presents the first empirical energy analysis of the Internet's dominant security protocol, SSL, on highly constrained devices. The author has enhanced Sizzle, the tiny-footprint HTTPS stack, with energy conserving features and measured its performance on a Telos mote. The paper shows that the key exchange phase, which consumes much more energy than bulk encryption and authentication, amortizes well over the transmission of a few kilobytes of application data.
