Vassilis RizopoulosEngineers’ Talk: DevOp and Tester Vassilis Rizopoulos

You remember episode 20 where I mentioned the Embedded Testing conference in Munich. One of the presentation was about Applying DevOps Principles to Software-Hardware Integration Test. Vassilis Rizopoulus explained details about DevOps, their tooling, automated testing and the mandatory environment.

I was excited and we have had an extraordinary talk after his contribution. Some days later I asked him for an interview. I am sure that Vassilis’ ideas and thoughts will be helpful for a lot of engineers out there. Especially engineers who wanted to try something knew, but who might need some trigger to change their way of thinking and habit.

Vassilis has been dabbling in software engineering close to two decades by now. In this time what started as a hobby of a would-be electrical engineer became full time occupation. He specializes in software productivity engineering, a catch all term for the role that integrates the development environment, test automation, continuous integration and deployment, devops and general behind the scenes tooling that enables software teams to concentrate on actually producing useful software.

Hunting bugsEngineers’ Talk: Mr. Bug-Hunting: Bero Brekalo

Talking about bug-hunting has become a regular topic in this podcast. However there are tons of different persons out there using their own approach to handle bugs. All of them might have different attitudes, different approaches and different experiences. And it might be of interest to get more familiar with them and the details they can tell us.

Within today’s episode we have Bero Brekalo as a guest for interview. Bero is one of my very first listeners not directly related to me. We got acquainted after release of Episode 2. We have had a long mail-discussion about debugging, our different and common understanding. Especially Bero’s very interesting debugging tools made me curious.

Soft ErrorSoft-Errors

Do you have ever heard about Soft-Errors? No, I do not mean Software-Errors. That’s something completely different. I mean Soft in difference to Hard. I first time get into contact with Soft-Errors in late 2011 as we have observed a spontaneous reset within a customer’s appliance. There was no indication for a reset-request, the system simply resetted.

Talk with Marcus Behrens about IoT

Marcus and me joined the IoT-TechDay in Frankfurt end of June. The IoT-TechDay was a one day conference organized by WindRiver, Intel, SalesForce, SAP, Accenture and Microsoft. The intention of meeting was “Moving from talk to transformation” creating business opportunities around IoT.

Marcus is a wholehearted engineer and Product Design Director at SAP in Walldorf, Germany. He’s responsible for evaluating the potential of IoT and finding product ideas and opportunities for SAP. On the other side he was and is an engaged engineer within Embedded Systems. This combination made me curious and we have had a good talk already at the IoT-TechDay and later on by mail. Our opinions about IoT and it’s potential, risks and challenges are not always the same. But that makes this talk even more exciting. Enjoy the episode.
