Release 5 of INtime includes distributed RTOS technology for Windows
Designers can now develop RTOS applications alongside Windows, or stand-alone RTOS applications with the same tools and familiar Microsoft Visual Studio integrated development environment. This gives users the flexibility to use and move INtime software code and applications across environments to INtime for Windows addressing applications with advanced Windows based human-machine interfaces (HMIs) or INtime Distributed RTOS, ideal for running deeply-embedded applications.
The new software release also supplements its existing USB stack implementation with a completely new USB stack which includes support for USB 3.0 and the AHCI controllers found on the latest PC platforms. The OS application interface has also been improved for better performance and functionality.
Key to the scalability that INtime enables is GOBSnet, a built-in inter-process communication mechanism that manages communications between a network of processing nodes. Using GOBSnet, developers distributed an application across diverse system solution, from a single-core system to a number of networked multicore systems. INtime Release 5 includes improvements in the node-to-node interfaces, such as a new optimized Message Queue, resulting in higher performance communications between nodes.
“INtime for Windows and INtime Distributed RTOS environments are designed to work together such that one can be an extension of the other if needed,” said Kim Hartman, TenAsys Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “This enables OEMs to scale their embedded system applications to address multiple cost/performance options. It is the only RTOS family that can support scalability of processor power in this manner.”
INtime Release 5 is shipping now.
