Green Hills Software has announced that its latest version of the Integrity-178B real-time operating system (RTOS) supports multicore processors with initial availability on Freescale Semiconductor’s family of QorIQ processors.
This update of the RTOS maintains support for partitioning of the multi-level-secure operating system across multiple cores in an operating environment that supports the combination of Asynchronous Multiprocessing (AMP) and Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP).
The implementation uses a patent-pending approach to multicore processor scheduling, defined as Time-variant Unified Multiprocessing (tuMP, pronounced “2-MP”).
Integrity-178B for multicore architectures is initially available for Freescale Semiconductor’s family of QorIQ processors with P4080 support available first.
Integrity-178B is also available with Green Hills Software’s MULTI/AdaMULTI integrated development environment (including optimizing C, C++ and Ada95 compilers).
