IoT platforms and applications are emerging and it's evident IoT is poised to change the way the world lives, learns, and works. With these new advancements come significant security concerns.

Radar, electronic warfare, unmanned aircraft, combat aircraft avionics, etc. all demand high-performance signal processing to meet capability requirements.

Today it is impossible to imagine modern production networks without IP-based industrial Ethernet LANs. It is also well known that IP networks are vulnerable to security attacks, and Industrial Control Systems (ICS) have a huge installed base of equipment that is decades old and has little to no security protection.

Military flight computers, vetronics systems, unmanned system payloads, missile systems, GPS devices, radios, etc. , are all trending smaller.

The Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACE) technical and business standards are driving newefficiencies in avionics platforms. FACE enables platform integrators to rapidly assemble best-of-breedtechnologies with commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) components that have proven safety certificationcredentials.

A fundamental component of the agile manifesto is the interaction between individuals and achieving a high level of collaboration. Due to the challenges of hardware access and automation (as we covered in Pt.

Multi-core processors open up a new realm of possibilities for increased performance and reduced size, weight and power. But, multi-core design has pitfalls and risks that must be addressed, and getting a multi-core avionics system certified is a major challenge.

Digital information has become the life blood of the transportation industry with networks of computers and sensors integral to nearly every aspect, including public transport, fleet management, surveillance, ticketing, and passenger information. But standing in the way of shared transportation information are the expense and isolation of vertically implemented solutions.

In response to numerous opportunities for analyzing sensor data to guide more informed decisions, Freescale will examine data analytics as the science of examining raw data with the purpose of uncovering insights and drawing conclusions. Freescale will look at how analytics can be applied to raw sensor data, referred to as Sensor Data Analytics.

The development of the IIoT will be the most important transformation of our time. The basic technical premise is simple: that a common architecture can connect sensor to cloud, power to factory, and cities to medical services.
