Intelligent Multi-core for Intelligent Networks
Overview:
Multiprocessing is nothing new. The techniques for creating successful multiprocessing systems are proven, well-known, and widely adopted. In fact, getting your software up and running on a multi-core processor is, in many cases, fairly easy.

So what's the real challenge then? The expectation is a scalable, field-proven, high performance solution. Embedded developers today are faced with designing applications that do more than just get up and running. Their applications must optimize the capabilities offered by the new generation of intelligent multi-core processors.

Join Kerry Johnson of QNX Software Systems and Steve Klinger of Cavium Networks as they address some of the key questions confronting developers building network applications for multi-core processors. This session will explore fundamental issues, such as high-availability, reliability, performance and troubleshooting, and review the case for a true microkernel real-time operating system on high-performance multi-core processors.

We will also offer an overview of the QNX Momentics development tools for multi-core applications. And, finally, we will discuss specific aspects of the QNX Neutrino RTOS's time-proven symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) capabilities, and advantages of its implementation on the Cavium OCTEON cnMIPs family of software-compatible, multi-core processors when developing intelligent network applications.

Estimated length: 1 hour, including Q & A.

Who should attend: This one-hour seminar will be of interest to embedded software development managers, architects, and developers facing multiprocessing design challenges in the networking industry.
