Editorial Webinar: Design re-use, from design to deployment
Overview:
There's no doubt that the job of the embedded developer is far more challenging than it's been in the recent past. That phenomenon is the result of multiple factors. These include the demand from consumers for more features in less space, faster and more complex microprocessors, the need for more software to run on those newer processors, and design windows that continue to shrink.

In this webinar, we will address both the hardware and software sides of this equation. We'll show how design re-use is one method that embedded developers need to add to their arsenal to keep the product queue filled. We'll examine the process, tools, and techniques that are available today, and paint a picture of what's in store moving forward.

Panelists:
Richard Nass
Editor-in-Chief/Editorial Director
Embedded Systems Design, Embedded.com, Embedded Systems Conferences, and RFID World


Rich's key responsibilities include setting the editorial direction for Embedded Systems Design magazine, the Embedded.com Web site, the global Embedded Systems Conferences, and the RFID World Web site and conference. Rich also handles the editorial for Embedded Systems Design Europe. He's been in the Electronics OEM industry for over 20 years. Before taking on the top editorial role for the Embedded and RFID franchises, Rich oversaw CMP's DesignLine network of design engineering Web sites. Prior to that, he spent six years as the Editor-in-Chief of Portable Design magazine, where he drove the editorial to new heights while launching a magazine and technical conference in China. Preceding that, Rich was a Technology Editor with Electronic Design magazine. He holds a BSEE degree from the New Jersey Institute of Technology.

Embedded Systems Design
Embedded Systems Design magazine provides best practices and peer guidance for Senior System Designers and their teams. This systems design magazine highlights the significant design methodologies, strategies and new products engineers need to gain a competitive advantage. We are the only embedded media brand serving the global embedded design community through print, online, and in person events. www.embedded.com

National Instruments
For 30 years, National Instruments has transformed the way engineers and scientists design, prototype and deploy systems for measurement, automation and embedded applications. This graphical system design approach empowers embedded developers with LabVIEW graphical programming and off-the-shelf, FPGA-based hardware for design, simulation, rapid prototyping, implementation, validation and verification of embedded systems. Designers can rapidly develop and iterate on designs, reducing the time from concept to prototype. Off-the-shelf FPGA-based hardware from NI reduces time to market by eliminating the need for costly integration steps such as board bring-up. After prototyping and validating the design, the designer can then deploy these custom designs to off-the-shelf hardware or to custom hardware, reusing existing code to target any 32-bit microprocessor.www.ni.com/embedded.
