Software virtualization with XtratuM Hypervisor to boost JUICE mission

On Friday 14th April, the European Space Agency (ESA) launched JUICE (JUpiter ICy moons Explorer) mission, a groundbreaking research project aimed at exploring Jupiter’s icy moons with an estimated duration of seven years. JUICE will be one of the most comprehensive studies of Jupiter’s moons undertaken, generating significant scientific discoveries,
The increasing importance of virtualization techniques

The increasing importance of virtualization techniques

The hardware technology of embedded real-time systems has evolved towards very powerful, reliable and cheap multicore platforms. This trend has increased the interest for software architectures in which multiple applications share a multicore platform as an optimal solution for embedded real-time systems. The interest in multicore platforms has been fueled
OneWeb achieves half the size of its constellation with XtratuM hypervisor at the core of its satellites

OneWeb achieves half the size of its constellation with XtratuM hypervisor at the core of its satellites

The increasing importance of time and space partitioning was a key consideration for OneWeb when choosing XtratuM Hypervisor. On October 14th, OneWeb launched its 11th batch of satellites and reached the halfway point of its planned constellation with 358 satellites orbiting. OneWeb is positioning as one of the main Internet providers from space in the
