Linux Kernel Tuning for IP Version 6 Networking
This paper describes the procedure for enhancing the Linux operating system with Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) networking feature. This paper also describes the linux kernel with IPV6 networking support, booting linux desktop machines with new IPV6 network supportive kernel, and its graphical representation. This paper lists the procedure to test the IPv6 enabled linux desktop kernel. The resultant IPv6 enabled linux kernels scale over Internet Protocol version 4 linux kernels in terms of built-in security support (IPSEC), efficient routing, address auto configuration, automated network (router) renumbering, and built in mobility support(MIPv6).
Functional Test Automation without Programming
The need for functional test automation is increasing. Many companies have developed 'homegrown' software solutions to meet their automation requirements. Over time, these solutions have expanded to include additional features like data aggregation, analysis, reporting, monitoring, etc. In addition, a number of commercial test automation tools are available. Until recently, there was no single solution that addressed the totality of manufacturers' needs.
Macraigor Eclipse + GNU Tools Suite
Macraigor Systems recently introduced a free Eclipse-compliant embedded debugging solution with sample Eclipse projects that run on many standard evaluation boards for hosting on the Linux platform. The solution provides embedded systems engineers with an integrated platform for developing and debugging embedded systems using the widely supported Eclipse platform. The free Macraigor Eclipse + GNU Tools Suite downloads for the i386, PowerPC, MIPS32/64, ARM7/9/11 and Intel XScale-core processors are immediately available.
Renesas Expands R32C/100 Series of Microcontrollers
Renesas recently expanded its R32C/100 series of 32-bit microcontrollers with 50 new MCUs. The new microcontrollers are built around the R32C/100 high-performance 32-bit CPU core, the most advanced available in the M16C family of complex instruction set computer (CISC) devices. They operate at speeds as fast as 64MHz, incorporate high-speed flash memory, and have peripherals such as FlexRay controllers that implement essential, cost-saving functions for embedded system tasks.
