Airport Security designs revolve around biometrics
Counter-terrorism experts in government and industry increasingly look to validating the identify of passengers, workers, and visitors through fingerprints, eye scans, and even by the individual ways they walk in efforts to prevent another Sept. 11 while improving the efficiency of the nation's air traffic system
Airport Security designs revolve around biometrics
A significant part of the federal call to arms in the war on terrorism was the creation of the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA).
Embedded RTOS vendors still find success in tough times
Designers of embedded real-time operating systems are finding avenues of opportunity in government, military, industrial, and other niche markets as the telecommunications market continues to hit rock bottom.

The coming HF radio renaissance
One of the most difficult ways to communicate by radio is over the high-frequency (HF) bands. These channels, which lie between 2 MHz and 30 MHz, are touchy and unpredictable, prone to noise, fading, jamming, and interference.
BAE Systems uses obsolescence management to successfully deliver F-22 electronics
Engineers at BAE Systems Information & Electronic Warfare Systems (IEWS) are continuing to deliver on budget and on time the electronic warfare system for the U.S. Air Force F-22 Raptor, mainly due to a diminishing manufacturing sources (DMS) team the company formed about a decade ago to manage the plethora of obsolescence problems associated with 15- to 20-year military platforms.

One year later
I think it would be useful to put the Sept. 11 attack in perspective and tailor our response accordingly.
One year later
After a year of trying to come to grips with the implications of the terrorist attack last Sept. 11, I'm becoming increasingly uncomfortable with our lack of progress in focusing all our assets on the problem at hand.
Is COTS moving in the right direction?
COTS — short for commercial off-the-shelf — has been around as a practical means of implementing embedded systems for at least 15 years now.
