SSD-levyt tarjoavat luontaisesti korkean luotettavuuden kaikentyyppisiin sovelluksiin, aina aloitustason kuluttajalaitteista kriittisiin järjestelmiin. Asianmukaiset tietosuojamekanismit voivat maksimoida levyn käyttöiän toteuttamalla ennaltaehkäiseviä toimenpiteitä tarpeen mukaan, kertoo Silicon Motion artikkelissaan.

As Edge AI continues to gain momentum in the Embedded industry, it is essential to address its security implications. Many Edge AI applications operate in safety-critical environments and critical infrastructure, where security cannot be overlooked. This presentation explores key threats, relevant regulations, and practical implementation strategies for building Secure Edge AI solutions. Jaakko Ala-Paavola, technology director, Etteplan
KEYNOTE: Solving the Top 5 Challenges of Bringing your Embedded System to Life
High-complexity, low-volume embedded systems—whether in medical devices, industrial machinery, or energy applications—face a unique set of hurdles on the path from concept to market. In this session, we’ll break down the five most common challenges that threaten schedules and budgets: rapid prototyping, thorough validation and software testing, design for manufacturing, navigating market forces, and managing skilled personnel. You’ll learn how NI’s CompactRIO platform together with CN Rood's market expertise helps teams address these issues head-on—accelerating development, improving quality, and delivering rugged, reliable systems faster. Real-world success stories will illustrate how engineers have used CompactRIO to cut time-to-market without sacrificing performance or flexibility.

OSM - a shortcut for full custom single board computers Adlink will be presenting the latest open standard for Computer On Modules (COM) called Open Standard Module (OSM). The presentation will be focusing on the advantages the new OSM standard has compared with full custom single board computers and existing COM standards like Q7 and SMARC. Henrik Petersen, Key Account Manager, Adlink Technology
To avoid becoming another victim of the ongoing chip crisis, we had to adapt and explore different ways of designing products. We tried a number of solutions, many of which we plan to continue to use even once this crisis is over. We would like to share these practices that have been helping us during this challenging time.

The R&S MXO 4 series is the first of a new generation of oscilloscopes that excels in both performance and value. The instruments deliver a once-in-a-decade engineering breakthrough for accelerated insight. They have the world’s fastest real-time update rate of 4.5 million waveforms/s, meaning engineers can see more infrequent events than with any other instrument.

Digital transformation demands for a huge increase of connectivity. Everything gets connected - even across different domains. How can international standards support to master this challenge?Where are we today and how may actual standardization efforts impact future designs and create new platforms? Basically I’m elaborating on a common customer question: What should I build into my next product?

Euroopan unionin uusi kyberkestävyyssäädös mullistaa sulautettujen laitteiden turvallisuusvaatimukset. Kolmen vuoden siirtymäaika ei jätä aikaa hukattavaksi: laitevalmistajien on kyettävä päivittämään ohjelmistonsa systemaattisesti ja todennettavasti koko tuotteen elinkaaren ajan. Miten tämä käytännössä onnistuu?
Kun Alibaba julkaisi Qwen3-Coderin – edistyneen avoimen lähdekoodin tekoälymallinsa koodinluontiin – vastaanotto teknisessä mediassa oli pääosin ihailua. Kyseessä on huippumalli: se päihittää useita suljettuja kilpailijoita, ymmärtää valtavia koodipohjia ja kykenee agenttimaiseen työskentelyyn. Cybernewsin päätoimittaja Jurgita Lapienyen mukaan malli voi kuitenkin olla “Troijan hevonen”.
