METASAT Project

👏 Glad of having taken METASAT to one of the biggest #space industry fairs in Europe! 🛰️ Our colleagues from FENTISS represented METASAT last week in Bremen and communicated the main achievements in our project. 👀 Do you want to know more about METASAT?

This week, our team met in IKERLAN premises in Arrasate-Mondragon, Guipuzkoa to discuss about the latest developments and advancements in METASAT. Bringing together representation from the whole consortium, all members shared updates and their vision on the project focused on #satellite technology. A big thank you to IKERLAN for hosting us and to all partners for their invaluable contributions! Together, we will transform #space #software innovation! 🚀

📢 The METASAT project announces the integration of Frontgrade Gaisler’s NOEL-V core, a #RISCV processor freely available for academic and research purposes. 🛰️ METASAT has extended this core by integrating a custom hardware accelerator designed specifically for AI space applications. This addition aims to leverage the efficiency and flexibility of the RISC-V architecture, positioning the METASAT project at the forefront of AI hardware innovation.

👀 Have you read our publication about XeroZerox: Analysis and Optimization of GPU Memory Management for High-Integrity Autonomous Systems? 🧑💻 This paper presents the challenges of using GPUs in critical autonomous systems, focusing on optimizing dynamic memory management. XeroZerox adresses this challenge, being an open-source tool that automatically converts the traditional dynamic memory allocations of GPU applications into allocations served from a centralized and optimally sized memory pool, which is managed in a way better suited for critical systems. XeroZerox allows legacy GPU applications to be used in a critical setup without rewriting them, minimizing at the same time their memory consumption and memory management runtime overhead.

METASAT Project's coordinator, Dr. Leonidas Kosmidis from Barcelona Supercomputing Center, will teach on Monday a GPU tutorial for Satety Critical Systems at the Digital Avionics Systems Conference (DASC). METASAT, a Horizon Europe project funded by the European Commission, supported the development of the tutorial material and it's a promoter of open standard, interoperable solutions, such as the RISC-V ISA from the RISC-V International, as well as the OpenGL SC and SYCL SC standards developed by The Khronos Group. During the project, an OpenGL SC implementation was developed targeting RISC-V CPUs and GPUs like the ones found in the award-winning METASAT's hardware platform which is prototyped on an FPGA, as well as an avionics application demonstrator. #riscv #gpu #avionics #safetycritical #openstandards #dasc #tutorial

⚙ METASAT proposes an integration framework to support multi-domain simulation of digital twins and their evolution during the V-cycle. 🖥 This framework is built on DESYRE, a multi-domain simulation framework for system virtual integration and testing based on state-of-the-art open standard and developed by Collins Aerospace. 👀 Do you want to know more about the METASAT Integration Framework and the work performed by our consortium on it? https://lnkd.in/daKmiNhV

🌟 Grateful for the Opportunity 🌟 Today I had the honor of representing the outstanding work on the "METASAT Modelling and Code Generation Toolchain for the XtratuM Hypervisor and RISC-V based Hardware Accelerators". This achievement wouldn't have been possible without the dedication and expertise of my exceptional IKERLAN colleagues Alejandro J. Calderón, Aitor Amonarriz, Mar Hernández Melero, Mikel Segura Abarrategi, Marcos Rodríguez Castaño, and our collaborative partners Barcelona Supercomputing Center, FENTISS, Collins Aerospace and OHB SE on METASAT Project. A heartfelt thank you to DSD on their 50th anniversary for their unwavering support and for fostering a platform where innovation and collaboration thrive. Proud to be part of such a talented and driven community! 🚀 #teamwork #innovation #satellitetechnology #collaboration #grateful

🚀 Last week, our colleagues from FENTISS participated at the European Space Agency - ESA Industry Space Days 2024. 💫 In this event hosted in ESTEC (Noordwijk, The Netherlands), our team had the opportunity to hear from ESA and other key stakeholders in the European space industry, showcase products and services and meet future partners. For two days, we had the chance to identify trends and business opportunities within the space sector, in which METASAT was an excellent example to show in terms of software modules, open architecture hardware, and high-performance computing platforms for the space sector.
