	SDC Systems Webinar Addresses The Migration to A Multicore Linux Environment This webinar will discuss the benefits of embedded Linux as a solution with multicore and help systems engineers consider what's important as they make the transition.... Migrating Embedded Applications to a Multicore Environment with Linux OVERVIEW: When considering a move to a multicore environment, the number one question embedded developers ask is "how do I leverage the work I've already done in my applications?" Though multicore hardware has provided improved performance for the embedded market, software developers are challenged with taking advantage of the millions of lines of single-threaded legacy code they have already written. This creates a paradigm shift in how developers must think about and implement future programs. This webinar will discuss the benefits of embedded Linux as a solution with multicore and help systems engineers consider what's important as they make the transition. We will conclude with an overv...	Full version Date: Sep 03, 2008
