  • Wind River Simics
    ™ AN INTEL COMPANY WIND RIVER SIMICS Electronic systems are becoming increasingly complex, with more hardware, more software, and more connectivity. Today’s systems are software intensive, using multiple processor architectures and running complex, multilayered software stacks. With an increasing empha- sis on smart and connected systems, complexity in software and hardware is unavoidable. With more connections comes additional security risk, which needs to be tested thoroughly. Compounding the challenge is the fact that developers have turned to DevOps and con- tinuous development practices to meet customer and company expectations for quick deliveries. Such methodologies rely on fast iterations for test, feedback, and deployment. Collaborative and cross-functional teams need tools to communicate and share a common development baseline. Wind River® Simics® allows developers to have on-demand access to any target system at any time. It enables more efficient collaboration between developers and quality assurance teams. Simics provides an automation API, enabling organizations to reap the business ben- efits of DevOps and continuous development practices to create and deliver better, more secure software, faster—even for complex, embedded, connected, and large IoT systems. DEVELOP SOFTWARE IN A VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT Simics provides the access, automation, and collaboration required to enable DevOps and continuous development practices. By using virtual platforms and simulation, soft- ware developers can decouple their work from physical hardware and its limitations during development. Access to virtual hardware allows developers to do continuous integration and automated testing much sooner in the development cycle—even before the hardware design is finalized—as well as perform both testing and debugging during design and pro- totyping phases.

The beauty of these 10 principles is that they can be layered together into a cohesive set of countermeasures that achieve a multiplicative effect, making device exploitation significantly difficult and costly for the attacker.

  • Open Network Virtualization with SDN And
    HIGH PERFORMANCE, OPEN STANDARD VIRTUALIZATION WITH NFV AND SDN A Joint Hardware and Software Platform for Next-Generation NFV and SDN Deployments By John DiGiglio, Software Product Marketing, Intel Corporation Davide Ricci, Product Line Manager, Wind River INNOVATORS START HERE. HIGH PERFORMANCE, OPEN STANDARD VIRTUALIZATION WITH NFV AND SDN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY With exploding traffic creating unprecedented demands on networks, service providers are looking for equipment that delivers greater agility and economics to address con- stantly changing market requirements. In response, the industry has begun to develop more interoperable solutions per the principles outlined by software defined networking (SDN) and a complementary initiative, network functions virtualization (NFV). At the heart of these two approaches is the decoupling of network functions from hardware through abstraction. The end result: Software workloads will no longer be tied to a particular hardware platform, allowing them to be controlled centrally and deployed dynamically throughout the network as needed. Moreover, network functions can be consolidated onto standard, high-volume servers, switches, and storage, further reducing time-to- market and costs for network operators. This paper describes hardware and software ingredients addressing network equipment platform needs for NFV and SDN, and details how they could be used in a Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) and other use cases. The solutions presented in this paper— designed to achieve real-time, deterministic performance
