ARTEMIS Networking Event - Feb 22nd 2010
Date: 22nd Feb 2010
Venue: Friends House 173-177 Euston Road, London NW1 2BJ
On February 26th, 2010 the ARTEMIS Programme will launch its 3rd call for proposals. To follow on from the ARTEMIS Brokerage 2010 event in Amsterdam on 13th and 14th December, the Electronics Knowledge Transfer Network held an ARTEMIS Networking event in London. With presentations from ARTEMIS, ARTEMISIA and the TSB, and pitches from 10 other companies, this event provided UK and European companies with an excellent opportunity to network with each other and share ideas for ARTEMIS projects. Over 50 meetings were conducted between companies during the brokerage session held in the afternoon.
Embedded Software Design for Safety Critical Systems 
A series of presentations exploring approaches in different market sectors
Date: 3rd Nov 2009
Venue: TRW Conekt, Solihull, West Mids, UK
Modern electronic systems increasingly make use of embedded computer systems to add functionality, increase flexibility, controllability and performance. However, the increased use of embedded software to control systems brings with it certain risks. The increased flexibility and complexity can lead to new and different failure modes which cannot be addressed with traditional fault tolerance techniques. This is especially significant in “safety-critical systems”.
Safety requirements and failure modes and consequences in medical systems will be quite different from those in avionics systems or automotive systems for instance, and the approaches used to ensure safety may consequently be different too.
This event is aimed at exploring the approaches used to develop embedded software in some of these different safety-critical applications, with a view to establishing any common approaches and identifying opportunities for sharing best practice and development tools and techniques.
A series of speakers will present their experiences of developing embedded software in various different safety critical applications.

FP7 and ARTEMIS Information Day - Dec 15th 2008
This event, held at the BERR Conference Centre, London, was aimed at providing our members with information about the forthcoming oportunities for funding for collaborative R&D projects on the theme of embedded systems design. The day was split into two sections: the morning section about FP7 Call 4 and the afternoon section about ARTEMIS Call 2

Crossing the Software Silicon Boundary
This event examined some of the opportunities and trade-offs for using configurable processing and configurable hardware in embedded systems. It explored some of the techniques and technologies available and discussed the tools and methodologies aimed at “unified design” and co-development of hardware and embedded software.
