Who: Rob McCammon, VP of Product Management Open Kernel Labs
What: High Performance Microkernel Provides the Ideal Platform for Trustworthy Embedded Systems.
When: January 22, 2008 11:15am
Where: RTECC – Santa Clara Convention Center
Rob McCammon will present at RTECC Santa Clara, discussing the benefits of OK Labs high performance microkernel, OKL4. McCammon will present OKL4 as the best choice to meet the security requirements developer’s face today. Operating systems must have additional fine-grained partitioning, information flow control, more secure resource management, and the ability to run security critical software in an execution environment with a much smaller trusted computing base.
McCammon will discuss virtualization as one of the solutions addressing the problem of software complexity in today’s modern embedded computing devices. He will explain how OK Labs advanced microkernel solves the challenges of security, reliability, and trustworthiness in designing and developing devices. As a result, devices are brought to market that maintain high performance levels but at lower cost and in a fraction of the time that was thought possible.
OK Labs technology leadership in embedded systems software and virtualization technology enables the development of secure, reliable, trustworthy and affordable devices. Backed by the largest, independent team of microkernel developers, OK Labs open-source microkernel operating system, OKL4, offers the highest proven performance combined with strong protection and security features in order to provide developers with a robust, open-source platform for building secure, differentiated embedded applications.
