Timesys had an opportunity +to save time and energy that was being spent juggling a +limited number of embedded boards among our developers, +customers, and support staff who are spread throughout +the world. We decided to build a system to provide +remote access to the boards and to automate many of the +tedious tasks such as running tests, booting the boards +and installing software including the operating +systems, board support packages and toolchains. This +allows the developers and support gurus at Timesys to +concentrate on the problem at hand instead of how each +board boots or how a specific board needs to be set up. + +We will talk about why the BoardFarm was built, how to +use it, how it works, and what it's being used for. We +will also talk about ideas that we have for future +improvements. Pigs were harmed in the making of this +BoardFarm and were delicious. + |
