SUMMARY:LF Energy Spring Summit 2021
DESCRIPTION:On April 14\, join LF Energy for this Spring Summit showcasing collaborative development and shared innovation to accelerate the energy transition through open source and software-defined infrastructure. \nAt 7:30 – 8 am\, James Gula\, Open DC Grid Co-founder\, JLG Consulting and Martin Jäger\, Open Hardware Architect\, Libre Solar Technologies GmbH\, will give a presentation about “Open DC Grid – Microgrid Standard Based on Open Source for Energy Access Applications.”  \nThe Open DC Grid project is an initiative to define an architecture to permit devices to exchange power using LVDC and document it in a standard that can be freely accessed and used by anyone. The standard is backed up by open-source hardware and software reference designs based on the Zephyr RTOS that can be used for testing and compatibility validation. This architecture can be used by any device\, but the initiative is particularly focused on rural microgrids in energy access markets\, emphasizing low-cost. By conforming to the standard\, system vendors can source components and appliances from multiple vendors reducing their engineering expense and reducing the costs that end users pay for electricity. This presentation gives an overview of the initiative\, the standard\, the open hardware development by Libre Solar and our experience using Zephyr for power electronics control. Add this to your schedule here. \nAt 4:30-5 pm\, Kate Stewart\, Vice President of Dependable Embedded Systems at The Linux Foundation\, will give a presentation about “Zephyr’s Path to Safety Certification.” \nSafety critical applications require a high level of software dependability\, which introduces new factors to consider for open source project development teams. In embedded applications\, there can also be a high cost for doing updates in the field\, thus reinforcing the need to provide high quality and careful analysis up front\, to minimize security problems over time. The Zephyr project was started 5 years ago\, with the goal of being a safe and secure RTOS that could be used where Linux is not an option\, such as sensors and actuators. As these systems communicate to the edge / cloud devices\, they need to be secure\, as well. This talk will provide an overview of the best practices and transparency that Zephyr has adopted in the project to get it ready to go through analysis\, and 3rd party certification\, so it can be deployed with confidence in critical infrastructure applications. Add this session to your schedule here. \nTo view all of the presentations\, visit the LF Energy Spring Summit website here: https://events.linuxfoundation.org/lf-energy-spring-summit/. \nTo register for the event ($50 US)\, click here.

SUMMARY:RISC-V Forum: Security
DESCRIPTION:On April 14\, Kate Stewart\, Vice President of Dependable Embedded Systems at the Linux Foundation\, will give a presentation at RISC-V Forum: Security. At 9:15 – 9:25 am PST\, Kate will give a talk titled\, “Extending Security to Resource Constrained Devices.” \nAs we hear more in the news about supply chain attacks and the cost of them\, the need to have trusted systems is growing in awareness. A large part of the problem is the lack of transparency on the software and hardware components that make up embedded systems\, especially in the area of safety critical applications and establishing secure communications. \nThe Zephyr RTOS was started 5 years ago\, with the goal of being a safe and secure RTOS for resource constrained devices that could be used where Linux is not an option. Some of the capabilities that the project has nurtured in order to have transparency and security for software on these constrained devices\, can be extended these to the system and chip level with systems build on RISC-V. This can provide significant efficiencies in security\, as well as a solid framework to be used in applications that have safety requirements. \nTo learn more about the forum agenda\, visit the main conference page: https://events.linuxfoundation.org/riscv-forum-security/. It is free to register for RISC-V member and non-members. To register\, click here.

SUMMARY:Embedded IoT World
DESCRIPTION:Embedded IoT World  is a virtual event on April 28 – 29 that is designed for developers\, architects\, engineers\, and technicians building end-to-end IoT solutions. The embedded community will have the opportunity to join technical workshops\, roundtables\, and speaker Q&A covering key topics: AI & ML\, Security\, Edge Computing\, Industrial IoT\, Connectivity\, and Processors/Enablement. Delivered by industry experts\, conference sessions will help you design and develop embedded systems to fuel the future of IoT. \nThe Zephyr Project is a partner of Embedded IoT World. Additionally\, a few members of the project on the advisory council including Kate Stewart\, Senior Director of Strategic Programs at the Linux Foundation\, and Frederic Desbiens\, Program Manager for IoT and Edge Computing at the Eclipse Foundation. Zephyr will also have a few presentations at the show. \nWednesday\, April 28:  \n9:15 am –Pushing the open edge machine learning ecosystem forward with RISC-V\, Zephyr\, TensorFlow Lite Micro and Renode (Michael Gielda (Antmicro)\, Tim Ansell (Google)\, Kate Stewart\, Brian Faith (QuickLogic) \nThe keynote panel will feature representatives of Google\, Zephyr Project\, QuickLogic\, STMicroelectronics and Antmicro in a discussion of how the strengths of RISC-V\, Zephyr RTOS\, TensorFlow Lite and Renode can be combined to provide innovative\, collaborative\, software-driven and traceable ML development for the very edge\, also on the hardware level\, e.g. using FPGAs or RISC-V custom extensions. The participants will discuss modern testing methodologies and HW-SW co-development enabled by the Renode simulation framework – as used by e.g. Google’s TF Lite Team – unlocking efficient and deterministically testable ML development on platforms including RISC-V. \nOther hot topics will include open source FPGA tools and Renode support for the Core-V MCU\, recent developments concerning TensorFlow Lite Micro\, RISC-V joining the Zephyr Project and the ML-oriented\, EU-funded VEDLIoT project involving RISC-V and Renode. \n10:50 am – Processors & Instruction-Set Architecture Opening Remarks\, Kate Stewart \n1:35 pm – Processors & Enablement Speaker Q&A Room\, Kate Stewart \n3:10 pm – Panel Discussion – Safety certification in the open: How the Xen project is making progress to achieve certification\, Kate Stewart\, Stefano Stabellini (Xylinx)\, George Dunlap (The Xen Project) and Artem Mygaiev (EPAM) \nSafety certification is one of the essential requirements for software to be used in highly regulated industries. Besides technical and compliance issues (such as ISO 26262 vs IEC 61508\,) transitioning an existing project to become more easily safety certifiable requires significant changes to development practices within an open source project. In this session\, we will lay out some challenges of making safety certification achievable in open source. We will be offering an in-depth review of how Xen Project is approaching these challenges and try to derive lessons for other projects and contributors. \n4:45 pm – Device Security & Safety Speaker Q&A Room\, Kate Stewart\, Stefano Stabellini (Xylinx)\, George Dunlap (The Xen Project) and Stephen Olsen (BlackBerry QNX) \nThursday\, April 29: \n9:15 am: Panel Discussion – The relationship between connectivity\, edge computing\, AI and machine learning in embedded systems\, Barna Ibrahim (Google)\, Jim White (IOTech)\, Colleen Josephson (Stanford University)\, Aditya Kumar (Facebook) and Edoardo Gallizio (STMicroelectronics).  \n\nDiscover how definitions for edge computing will continue to evolve and the impact this will have on engineers building embedded systems for the edge\nUnderstanding the vast array of connectivity options to tailor your device build so the tech will run smoothly as well as looking at which option fits best\nDive into AI at the edge: A look at the different types of hardware AI accelerators\n\nFor more information about the conference\, visit the main conference page. \n
