Worldwide provider of royalty-free real-time operating systems (RTOS), Express Logic, has announced that its industrial-grade FileX high-performance FAT-compatible file management system has achieved compliance with UL 60730-1 Annex H, CSA E60730-1 Annex H, IEC 60730-1 Annex H, UL 60335-1 Annex R, IEC 60335-1 Annex R, and UL 1998 safety standards for software in programmable components.

Software company Synopsys has released its fuzzing report, which provides deep analysis on potential zero-day exploits in the open source protocols and common file formats used across six key industries, including automotive, financial services, government, healthcare, industrial control systems, and IoT. The results stem from more than 4.8 billion fuzz tests conducted by Synopsys’ customers in 2016 using the Defensics Fuzz Testing solution...

The ODIN-W2 stand alone IoT gateway module from u-blox has achieved ATEX certification for use in potentially explosive atmospheres (zone 0). Already designed to withstand harsh environmental and electrical conditions, the professional grade, dual band WiFi and dual‑mode Bluetooth module is now certified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, found in the oil and gas, mining and petrochemical industries.

Bordering the western branch of the Tennessee River and often referred to as the gateway to Middle Tennessee is Benton County. Aside from the city of Camden, the only other largely populated areas are the agrarian communities of Big Sandy and Holladay. The county’s electricity requirements are met by Benton County Electric System (BCES), whose 38 employees work to deliver power to more than 10,000 customers. BCES’s philosophy is ...

As Cliff Ortmeyer, Global Head of Solutions Development, Premier Farnell explains, the internet has dramatically changed the way we design most electronic systems, with everything from signage at a bus stop, to complex industrial systems now using connectivity as a key part of their functionality. Perhaps the biggest change, however, is the introduction of sensor systems that collect data and pass the information to the cloud.

The cloud is becoming an increasingly important part of the design of a system that connects to the Internet of Things (IoT), as Mark Patrick, Mouser Electronics, explains.

John Jones, Director of Innovation at Avnet Silica, discusses some of the challenges and choices in developing systems and applications for the Internet of Things (IoT), and how the Visible Things platform can enable fast and easy development of secure, scalable edge-to-enterprise solutions for a multitude of industrial applications.

A new player has dived into the water industry. Established in 2017, based in London, Hydrate.Direct employs the latest in Internet of Things (IoT) technology, using a ‘smart button’ that allows customers to order more water at the press of a button. The button – like the Amazon Dash button used by major FMCG companies – is a secure WiFi-connected device that can be set up by the customer in minutes. It is pre-configu...
