QNX Freescale Multi-Core Seminar - Boston

QNX-Freescale Multi-Core Seminar WOBURN

Designing and Optimizing Software for Freescale's MPC8641D Dual-Core PowerPC™ Processor


Location: Freescale Semiconductor Inc., Woburn, Massachusetts

May 25, 2006
11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
LUNCH included (sponsored by QNX and Freescale)

Join QNX Software Systems and Freescale Semiconductor for a technical seminar that looks at understanding and overcoming the challenges of designing optimized software for dual-core processors.

Applications today require more and more processing performance within existing system power budgets. Fortunately for developers, the dual-core MPC8641D processor available from Freescale provides many options for increasing and optimizing application performance without dramatically increasing power consumption.

There is one problem: most embedded engineers today are only familiar with single core processor programming and need guidance on how to design and optimize software for dual core architectures. To address this imminent transition, QNX has introduced its Multi-core Edition, the industries only comprehensive software infrastructure for multi-core processors.

Presenters at this seminar will address the problem by exploring proven strategies and techniques for distributing software tasks across dual cores. It also discusses the benefits and tradeoffs of several multiprocessing models (AMP, SMP, BMP) and discusses tools for troubleshooting and optimizing Freescale’s dual-core PowerPC processors.

Agenda:

11 a.m. - 11:15 a.m. Freescale Semiconductor Technology Roadmap
11:15 a.m. - 11:30 a.m. QNX Software Systems Architecture Overview
11:30 a.m. LUNCH served
11:30 a.m. – 12:45 p.m. Is your software ready for the transition to Multi core?
12:45 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. Demonstration: QNX Momentics Multi-Core Edition on dual PPC7448
