Linaro Connect Budapest 2020 will take place on March 23-27 at the Corinthia Hotel in Budapest, Hungary. There are several Zephyr sessions planned by Zephyr Project members and community contributors. Please see the schedule below.
On Monday, March 23:
At 2:30-2:55 pm, Vincent Wan, Embedded Software Engineer for Texas Instruments, will present Power Management in Zephyr. He’ll showcase the current state of power management in the Zephyr RTOS, using a TI MCU platform as a case study. It goes over the current features, the steps involved in adding support for a new platform, and on-going development. Add it to your schedule here.
At 3-3:25 pm, Manivannan Sadhasivam, Kernel Engineer for Linaro, will give a talk about LoRa (Long Range) meeting Zephyr. LoRa (Long Range) is a low power wireless technology targeted for IoT applications. LoRa enables long-range transmissions (more than 10 km in rural areas) with low power consumption through the Chirp spread- spectrum modulation technique. There are multiple attempts from the community for adding LoRa support to Zephyr RTOS. This session goes through all of the efforts taken so far, motivation, current status, and future plans of the Zephyr-LoRa work. To add this session to your schedule, click here.

At 3:30-3:55 pm, Paul Sokolovsky, IoT Engineer at Linaro, will present an update on LAVA testing for baremetal systems. One of important goals of Linaro LITE team is to ensure continuous integration and validation for the projects it works with. This session covers recent work on improving test coverage for Zephyr and OpenAMP projects, using Linaro’s popular LAVA testing platform. Click here to add this to your schedule.
On Tuesday, March 24:
At 10-10:25 am, Maureen Helm, Software Engineer at NXP and Zephyr Project Chair of the Technical Steering Committee, will present Open Source Enabled Edge Processing. In the last five years, we have seen an explosion of open source in the IoT and embedded industry driven by a shift towards edge processing. Projects like Zephyr have grown from incubation to mainstream, addressing a growing need for common software infrastructure in embedded microcontroller applications that operate on the edge. In this talk we will take a look back at the expansion of open source in this industry in recent years and explore some insights into where it will go in the future.
