Happy New Year! We hope that everyone in the ELISA ecosystem and community had a wonderful and safe holiday season. As we take a look at the blank slate of the new year, the Linux Foundation’s Shuah Khan, ELISA Project Chair of the Technical Steering Committee, shares a few of the predictions of what the project will achieve in 2022. She chats with Swapnil Bhartiya, The Fourth Industrial Revolution Creator and Host, in this video. Watch it or read the predictions below.
Swapnil Bhartiya:
Hi, this is your host, Swapnil Bhartiya. And welcome back to TFiR’s predictions for 2022. And today we have with us, once again, Shuah Khan, Linux fellow and chair of the ELISA Project Technical Steering Committee. Shuah, it’s great to have you on the show.
Shuah Khan:
Thank you for having me.
Swapnil Bhartiya:
Before we ask you to grab your crystal ball and share your predictions, I want to know a little bit about the project. Tell us what is the project all about?
Shuah Khan:
ELISA project is all about enabling Linux and safety critical applications. What that means is that at ELISA project, what we are doing is we are bringing safety experts and Linux experts together to collaborate on developing best practices and resources for people that are enabling Linux in their products, on their safety critical applications.
Swapnil Bhartiya:
Now, if I ask you, please grab the crystal ball and tell me what predictions you have for 2022.
Shuah Khan:
My first prediction is ELISA community will keep growing. We’ll continue to add new members and will continue to engage with the kernel and safety communities.
My second prediction is we will expand our critical spaces. Right now, we focus on several like medical and automotive. We will expand into other industries by adding members from aviation and industrial spaces.
Swapnil Bhartiya:
Thanks for sharing these two predictions. Now, if I ask you what is going to be the focus of the project in 2022?
Shuah Khan:
The focus for us in 2020 do is continuing to work with Automotive Grade Linux (AGL) and Autostar in the automotive space and continue engaging the kernel and safety communities. Our second focus is to continue harmonizing best practices for our members. We want to be able to make best practices, processes, and resources available to our members that are enabling Linux on safety clinical applications.
Swapnil Bhartiya:
Shuah, thank you so much for sharing these predictions and also, the focus for the project for 2022. And as usual, I would love to have you back on the show. Thank you.
Shuah Khan:
Thank you, Swapnil.
