...Nucleus RTOS Johnathan Rawlings POS/355 July 17th, 2013 Steven Schoen Nucleus RTOS IM sure if you’re like me your probably wondering what Nucleus RTOS is. Well let’s take a look; Nucleus RTOS is a real-time operating system (RTOS) and toolset created by the Embedded Systems Division of Mentor Graphics for various central processing unit (CPU) platforms. It’s estimated to be running on over 2.11 billion devices around the world. On Nucleus Applications are compiled to run on various target CPU architectures and tested using the actual target boards or in simulation environment. On Nucleus development is typically done on a host computer running Windows or Linux. Nucleus RTOS is designed for embedded systems applications including consumer electronics, set-top boxes, cellular phones, and other portable and handheld devices. What’s impressive is that Nucleus RTOS can be scaled down to a memory footprint as small as 13 KB for both code and data for limited memory systems. Nucleus is comprised of these main components: the kernel, connectivity, file system, graphics, and security. And here are some basic descriptions of each component. Kernel: * Real time kernel * C++, POSIX and Micro ITRON interfaces * Dynamic download * Inter-process communications * Closed Source (however, the source code is available to customers, making it easier to debug than operating system distributed as binaries only) Connectivity * USB 2.0 Host, Function and On-The-Go (OTG)...

...Business Impact Analysis 12/1/2012 The Business Impact Analysis (BIA) is the key concept used by the organization as a tool when developing Business Continuity Plans (BCP). The purpose of the BIA is to gather business information in an effort to understand the importance of the different functions of the organization (Johnson, R. (2011). It serves as the foundation for which an effective BCP can be developed and implemented. The BIA will identify and quantify business related impacts during a loss, disruption, or interruption of processes or functions within the organization. With effective implementation, the organization will be able to recover its operations under any circumstance or condition. Component Priority In conducting you BIA some limitations should be made. In order to gather required information you should be able to schedule interviews with each department to assess critical functions within that department. It is important to interview people that know functions and processes of that department. There are two methods that can be utilized to gather information on critical processes and functions. One method would be to conduct surveys among people within each business unit. Caution should be used here as random people selected for the survey may not understand the critical functions of the business. It will, on the other hand give some insight as to what employees think are important to operations. Another method available would...

...across various levels for their outstanding contributions. Workplace Training Training in the Workplace Different businesses face different issues within the workplace. A manufacturing plant, a warehouse, a retail store, or an office will each have different needs and different motivations for considering workplace training. The need for training in the workplace may be safety related such as forklift training and manufacturing training where there are safety hazards not experienced in other business. Training may be required to ensure the company delivers great customer experiences such as in offices with reception staff or in retail environments. The advantages of having staff progression opportunities supported by training in team management and leadership may lead to the development of workplace training programs. Triggers for Workplace Training Business can be stressful enough whether you ar an owner, director, manager or employee. There are obvious stresses related to productivity and...

...What does it take to get attention for IT initiatives in today's enterprise? In most cases, according to Symantec Senior Director Jennie Grimes, it means making a compelling business case—and getting the right information to the right people in the right language. | IT risk management initiatives are definitely worthy of executive attention. Our economy is increasingly dependent on the Internet and IT systems, making the risks in these systems far more visible and significant than ever. But, it's a discipline with a myriad of stakeholders: CIOs, CISOs, enterprise risk management teams, compliance and regulation staff, and internal and external auditors. Step #1: Choose your words wisely There are two types of CIOs—infrastructure managers and strategic thinkers. The latter will succeed with their IT risk management agenda because they speak in terms of business advantages, not outages. For example, rather than talking about a "zero day threat," consider simulating the impact of a potential incident in terms of potential business loss. Instead of talking about RTOs and RPOs, speak in terms of lost revenue and customers during an outage. Instead of highlighting unimplemented ISO controls, speak about the lost effectiveness of employees who need to share information both inside and outside the firewall. It also doesn't hurt to point out the impact on productivity when employees can't effectively share information effectively. Step #2: Use a High-Medium-Low spectrum of...

...vulnerabilities, and values of an organization’s assets. A key factor in risk assessment is the determination of the likelihood of an adverse event affecting an Organization, process, or system. Risk assessment is a valuable tool to help the organization recognize itself threat environment and ensure that the steps are undertaken to minimize the resulting risks to an acceptable level. b. Business Impact Analysis (BIA) is the key to a successful BCP implementation. Understanding and standardizing Enterprise business process names is critical to the success of the BIA. The intent of the BIA process is to help the organization’s management appreciate the magnitude of the operational and financial impacts associated with a disaster or serious disruption. When they understand, management can use this knowledge to calculate the recovery time objective (RTO) for time-critical support services and resources. For most Organizations, these support resources include: Facilities - IT infrastructure (including voice and data communications networks) - Hardware and software - Vital records Data - Business partners The connection is made when each of the time-critical business processes is mapped to the above supporting resources. 2. What is the difference between a disaster recovery plan (DRP) and a business continuity plan (BCP)? a. Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP) is plan for the intervention taken by an organization to minimize further losses brought on by a disaster and to begin the process...
