The Open Source Way

Designing an SoC is a complex activity which requires a broad range of competences, from computer architecture to low level software development, from system prototyping to operating system. The open-source hardware community has many projects underway with a goal to simplify the whole SoC design and development process by providing high-quality tools, which help automating the workflow, as well as high-quality IP, which helps ensure the SoC design is reliable and efficient.

Building a Sustainable Future through Open Source (sponsored by Huawei)

ADRIAN OSULLIVAN (Huawei Technologies Co., LTD.)

There is perhaps no greater shared challenge facing our world today than climate change. If we are to address this issue, we must collectively improve the technologies we both create and use to help improve the world. From increasing their energy efficiency to using them for protecting the wild, open source has a key role to play in building technologies for a sustainable future.

Reaching and Equipping the Next Generation of Open-Source Developers

Grace Jansen (IBM)

Open Source has become the defacto way to build software. Everywhere we go, whether in the industry or not, we will come across open-source software and open-source software development. How and what are we doing in enabling the next-generation of up-and-coming developers to participate in open-source software development? Wouldn't it be wonderful if there are ways for the community, industry and academia to collaborate and nurture the next generations of open-source developers?

Eclipse Development Process 101

Maria Teresa Delgado (Eclipse Foundation Europe GmbH)

Wayne Beaton (Eclipse Foundation)

In this session we'll provide an overview of the Eclipse Development Process (EDP).

We'll go over the steps needed to create your Open Source Software Project at the Eclipse Foundation and we'll also review what extra actions are needed if you're planning to create a Specification Project.

We'll also review together the workflow and recent changes that the EF has implemented to simplify release and progress reviews and we'll cover the basic steps that your project needs to cover to comply with the EDP.

Open Source Software Supply Chain Security — Why does it matter?

Mikaël Barbero (Eclipse Foundation)

For a couple of years, there is an awakening in the industry about the fact that Open Source is everywhere and that its supply chain is now the easiest way to create increasingly public, disruptive, and costly attacks. We have yet to see the cost and fallouts of the SolarWinds cyberattack or the Log4j vulnerability.

Which UI frameworks for IoT devices ? Oniro's experiences

phil coval (Huawei Technologies Co., LTD.)

Bartosz Golaszewski (Huawei Technologies Co., LTD.)

While most connected devices are headless, some of them expose a graphical interface for users to interact with. Oniro provides several approaches for human/machine interaction, from local basic display to full featured remote control.

This talk will focus on displaying data on Oniro devices depending on use cases or devices' constraints.
