Abstract:

We will present Femto-Containers, a lightweight and hardware-independent virtualization system to isolate software modules on RIOT. Femto-Containers is based on the Linux eBPF mechanism and allows for deploying and running lightweight applications concurrently on RIOT with minimal memory footprint. The presentation will contain a technical overview of Femto-Containers and how it can be used to dynamically deploy applications on RIOT.
