Many automotive applications require processing workloads with minimum latency and precise timing budgets. This is especially true for safety-critical applications like adaptive cruise control and anti-lock braking, where human life may be jeopardized. These systems require processing elements that can respond to events within specific (predictable) time constraints. System reliability and availability depend on the effectiveness of this real-time processing.

In this webinar, we will outline examples of safety-critical applications and why real-time processing is required to maintain the highest levels of safety and reliability. We will also discuss Synopsys’ ARC-V™ RHX processor series and how these power/performance efficient processors address the real-time requirements of these applications.
