The backbone of the “smarter products” revolution is embedded systems. So much so, that in 2009 nearly 70% of all products contained embedded systems. While smarter products are becoming more ubiquitous—and so too the embedded systems that make them function—designing the embedded systems that make those products work is becoming more complex.
The general challenges include the increasing number of features that are required while reducing energy consumption and getting them produced in ever-shorter design/manufacturing cycles.
While meeting these new demands, embedded systems must still meet the age-old requirements of dependability and security. This webinar will look at some of the key challenges facing embedded systems and offer some best practices for ensuring they meet all the demands placed on them.
PRESENTER:
Professor Joseph Sifakis - Research Director, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS)
Embedded Systems Design - Challenges and Work Directions
Professor Joseph Sifakis studied Electrical Engineering at the Technical University of Athens and Computer Science at the University of Grenoble. He is recognized for his pioneering work on embedded system design and verification. He contributed to the emergence of the area of model-checking, currently the most widely used verification method in industry. His current research focuses on rigorous system design and correct-by-construction techniques. Joseph Sifakis has a broad industry experience, notably though participation in a large number industrial projects and consulting.
Awards and distinctions: Turing Award 2007, CNRS Silver Medal 2001, Member of the French Academy of Sciences, of the French Academy of Engineering and of Academia Europea, Grand Officer of the French National Order of Merit, Commander of the Legion of Honour.
