White Paper: Examine the Hidden Costs of Commercial PC Platforms in Embedded Applications
In this challenging global economy, system integrators are facing growing pressure to lower costs, accelerate Time-to-Market (TTM), and maximize profits while reducing risk. This white paper explores the hidden costs of commercially available PC platforms when used in embedded applications and why today’s embedded platforms are a superior choice for your next high-end embedded application. Included are the common myths and misconceptions of today’s embedded platforms. We need to clearly differentiate today’s embedded solutions from those of 5 or 10 years ago and recognize the dramatic evolution that is currently taking place in embedded technology.

White Paper: Harmonizing Modeling and Simulation with the Development Lifecycle – Improved Management of Models Accelerates the Development Cycle
Model-based development and testing are revolutionizing industry sectors like automotive and aerospace, but the models themselves (as well as the modification and testing of those models) are still disconnected from the overall development lifecycles. Disconnected modeling represents a critical risk to the organization.

White Paper: Accelerating Innovation in Automotive Engineering
The escalating volume and complexity of software in the systems and components of today’s vehicles is a staggering challenge and it will only continue to grow. Software is not only an opportunity for innovation and differentiation – it is a source of risk that can broadly and deeply affect the success of the entire organization because in many ways the software defines the experience of the customer who uses the vehicle.

White Paper: Mastering Complexity in Aerospace & Defense
The Case for Total Lifecycle Systems Management (TLSM). Developing high-quality, successful Aerospace & Defense products and programs-on time and within budget- has always been a tremendous challenge for organizations serving the A&D industry. Yet today, due to the economic downturn, today’s war on terror, globalization, product sophistication, and the emergence of powerful new technologies, the level of complexity in A&D product development is becoming mind-boggling. Included in this white paper are a set of best practices that are now working for many of the leaders in the global A&D market.

White Paper: Publication: Model-driven systems development- delivering innovation with demonstrable business value
Many of today’s products are, in fact, systems of systems. Features are delivered through integration with other systems and processes. For example, sensors in an automobile’s safety system can be programmed to assess the severity of a crash and integrated with a communications system to pass accident details to first responders.

White Paper: The Best Defense is a Good Offense
With military systems’ life cycles of 20 to 50 years, component obsolescence is always an issue. Now, however, OEMs are adopting more proactive Bill of Materials (BOM) management practices to lessen the impact of End-of-Life (EOL) notices.
