embedded world 2014, Nuremburg, and Ismaning, Germany. February 24, 2014 – Wind River®, a provider of embedded software for intelligent connected systems, is focusing on Internet of Things (IoT) technologies and trends and the associated opportunities and challenges at Embedded World 2014 in Nuremberg, Germany.

Wind River presentations at Embedded World 2014 are addressing the following emerging trends and industry challenges:

  • Applying connectivity, manageability, and security to critical infrastructure: Wind River shows how software development environments with pre-integrated, ready-to-use components such as device security, smart connectivity, rich network options, and device management can be used to secure, manage, and connect IoT gateways in the critical infrastructure market.
  • VxWorks—The RTOS enabling the Internet of Things: Wind River discusses its VxWorks® real-time operating system (RTOS), which has been re-architected in response to changes in the embedded market landscape. The company is covering the product’s new features, which address IoT, machine-to-machine (M2M) applications, the cloud, and security.
  • The device revolution: How intelligence in critical devices is transforming business: Wind River outlines how developers of intelligent systems are realising the potential of the Internet of Things by optimising business intelligence with anywhere, anytime access to critical information. Industry use cases provide insight into the impact on the supply/value chain and the ecosystem. The company is also highlighting development considerations key to success, including securing these complex, connected devices that are often connected to public networking infrastructure from hacker attacks and breaches.
  • Wind River Open Virtualization with Real-Time Performance: Wind River examines how open virtualisation technologies enable many applications and functions to run dedicated operating systems, and enable hardware to consolidate into one system. The company also covers real-time virtualisation using open source kernel virtualisation machine technology to deliver extremely low latency with near-native hardware performance, high throughput and virtual node management.

 

“The Internet of Things is a driving force that will significantly impact the embedded industry in the coming years, with the evolution of standalone embedded systems into massive networks of devices that deliver unprecedented amounts of data over the internet,” said Jim Douglas, chief marketing officer at Wind River. “Embedded World provides an ideal forum for the industry to come together to discuss this evolving embedded landscape, and we look forward to leading conversations around key industry topics that address this increasingly connected world.”

Wind River is also showcasing a wide range of demonstrations, including its RTOS and open source technologies, software platform for IoT, and solutions for the automotive market.

embedded world is the biggest European exhibition on embedded systems. The annual summit is a meeting point for the whole industry, bringing together developers, manufacturers, distributors, and more. The exhibition and conference focus on the latest trends and major current embedded technology topics, including innovations in hardware, software, and development tools for automotive, energy, telecommunication, military, medical, aerospace, industrial, and consumer electronics markets.

Wind River, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Intel® Corporation (NASDAQ: INTC), is a global provider of embedded software for intelligent connected systems. The company has been pioneering computing inside embedded devices since 1981, and its technology is reportedly found in more than 1 billion products. Wind River offers a wide-ranging embedded software portfolio, supported by global professional services and support and a broad partner ecosystem.
