A successful model-based engineering effort for rugged system infrastructure design will result in shorter development cycles, fewer failures and rework, more innovation, and ultimately higher-quality products.

Emerging standards such as VITA 100 and VNX+ will double board and backplane speeds, add a new board size, and help make tiny computers possible for handheld devices and uncrewed devices.

Curtiss-Wright, in collaboration with Wind River, Ansys, and CoreAVI, demonstrated a new digital cockpit flight display at the 2024 MOSA Industry & Government Summit & Expo.

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.

In rugged computing, "the hardest problem to solve is thermal management," says Curtiss-Wright's Dechiaro. "As processors get faster they tend to generate more heat.

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.
