CppCon 2024 Using PMR in C++ Embedded Systems for Functional Safety -- Scott Dixon

Registration is now open for CppCon 2025! The conference starts on September 15 and will be held in person in Aurora, CO. To whet your appetite for this year’s conference, we’re posting videos of some of the top-rated talks from last year's conference. Here’s another CppCon talk video we hope you will enjoy – and why not register today for CppCon 2025!

Lightning Talk: Using PMR in C++ Embedded Systems for Functional Safety

by Scott Dixon

Summary of the talk:

Dynamic memory is often disallowed in high-assurance, c++ embedded systems but, when examining the reasons why, C++17 Polymorphic Memory Resources emerge as an unexpected solution to enable the use of C++ standard library constructs for such projects. My talk will explore how PMR can be used to meet functional safety requirements and to build embedded systems that are robust, performant, and testable.
