The ELISA Project hosted at The Linux Foundation aims to make it easier for companies to build and certify Linux-based safety-critical applications – systems whose failure could result in loss of human life, significant property damage or environmental damage.
Join us at OSSNA, Vancouver + Virtual
Several ELISA community members will be sharing their work at Open Source Summit North America taking place in Vancouver and virtually June 10-12. Don't miss these sessions below if you're involved in the intersection between safety and open source development.
ELISA Mini Summit:project overview, automotive and aerospace use cases, discovering kernel subsystems in use, and more.
As open source is found more and more in safety-critical applications, the need to evaluate open source software that meets safety standards has increased. The Safety-Critical Software Summit, part of Embedded Open Source Summit (EOSS), taking place in Prague and virtually, June 27-30, gathers safety experts and open source developers to enable and advance the use of open source in safety-critical applications.
EOSS schedule is live including almost 10 sessions in the dedicated safety-critical track.
Several safety-critical track speakers are ELISA community members from The Boeing Company, Codethink, Intel, Robert Bosch GmbH, The Linux Foundation, and more.
Do you know that the ELISA Project has enabled Continuous Integration (CI) to make it easier for others to onboard to the project, to experience deliverables from the various working groups, and to make the work reproducible and more dependable. In this post, Philipp Ahmann and Sudip Mukherjee write about how CI has been enabled using the Automotive Working Group use case as an example.
The ELISA Medical Devices Working Group set out to identity methodology to discover system resources necessary to build and run workload and document the process. The result, the workload-tracing guide, authored by Shuah Khan and Shefali Sharma, is intended to be used as a guide on how to gather fine-grained information on the resources in use by workloads using strace.
The guide has also been put into practice with the Automotive Working Group use case analysis focusing on safety critical display rendering.
The guide has been upstreamed and is now available in Linux 6.3 release.
Open invitation - get involved and start contributing
As an open source project, ELISA welcomes contributors globally to participate in the project community and collaborate with others to bridge the gap between functional safety and Linux kernel development velocity in order to advance open source in safety-critical systems. There are a variety of ways to participate and contribute including:
