Prestigious award from Electronic Products magazine recognizes the ability of the BMR456 and BMR457 DC/DC Advanced Bus Converters to control intermediate bus voltage to deliver high efficiency and significant energy savings

Today, the leaders of major industries are being challenged, seemingly overnight, powerless to control their own destiny despite their legacy, strength and footprint. Change is happening at an exponential rate and humans are not naturally engineered to cope with such a rapid pace of change.

More than 100 proposals from around the world have already been submitted to the M2M Challenge 2012. And there’s still time to submit your M2M application idea – you could win USD 5,000 and help shape the future of business and society.

• First of its kind in the industry, Ericsson DC/DC Digital Power Designer software tool closes the gap between system architects and board-power designers, shrinking time-to-market with an unprecedented level of flexibility
• New tool manages a wide range of configurations – from simple to highly complex setups and from a single unit to a complete system – in both online and offline modes
• First software tool to integrate tools that support system development from concept and early evaluation to final board production, significantly reducing time-to-market and cost

• Advanced board-power-consumption monitoring and control technologies enable significant energy savings, between 3 and 10 percent at board level
• FRIDA II platform Advanced Bus Converters offer high efficiency and optimized mode of operation to adjust bus voltage for low- and high-traffic scenarios
• BMR456-DBV and BMR457-DBV only products in their category able to deliver voltages as low as 4V to power ‘Sleep Mode’

Ericsson CMO Arun Bhikshesvaran introduces our global developer competition, the Ericsson Application Awards 2013. The theme for this year is "Apps For City Life." Both small enterprise teams and student teams are invited to join, before the deadline for registration on February 28, 2013.

• BMR457 Advanced Bus Converter named as a top-10 DC/DC power product by Electronic Products China
• Recognition of world-class innovative solutions to reduce the environmental impact of electronic equipment
• Eighth-brick-format BMR457 delivers unprecedented performance to system architects developing equipment for Information and Communication Technology applications

Many of today’s internet applications are internally publish/subscribe in nature, but support is cumbersome with the existing architecture. This paper proposes a novel multicast forwarding fabric, suitable for large-scale topic-based publish/subscribe.

OpenFlow is popular in software-defined networks. To improve performance, we implemented an OpenFlow v1.1 hardware forwarding plane based on network processors, proposing a performance model that helps improve mapping.

• Developers, startups and anyone who has an idea for a great app, here is your opportunity
• This year there will be a global competition and several regional competitions
• First prize is EUR 25,000, second prize is EUR 10,000 and third prize is EUR 5,000
