On Fish Fry, host Amelia Dalton speaks with Aaron Frank of Curtiss-Wright about the evolution of processing for embedded systems and the biggest benefits of hybrid processors.

An Embedded Computing Design editor and Aaron Frank, senior product manager at Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions, discuss the evolution of processor cores, multitasking capabilities, future trends involving processor design, and more.

Taken to the extreme, today’s high-end graphics processors (GPUs) can execute thousands of simultaneous operations, which is fundamental for highly parallel 3D visualizations and complex AI [artificial intelligence] processing tasks.

The CHAMP-XD4 features dual Intel Xeon D-2700 processors, and is for demanding intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissonce (ISR) system architectures.

Computer experts are deepening their defenses against cyber attack and information security breaches.

Much of the innovation in high-performance embedded computing starts with microprocessors.

For many COTS [commercial off-the-shelf] vendors and VITA members, the Tri-Service Memo issued in January 2019 by the secretaries of the Army, Navy, and Air Force was the highest validation of several decades of their combined efforts.

COTS suppliers have focused on increasing connectivity speeds within and between systems for decades, following the introduction of the VPX standard.
