LynuxWorks First to Bring Linux-compatible RTOS to ARM Microprocessor Architecture Monday November 18, 6:03 am ET LynxOS v4 Allows Developers to Save Development Time and Costs by Leveraging the Linux Platform SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 18, 2002-- LynuxWorks(TM), Inc. today announced the availability of its real-time operating system (RTOS), LynxOS® v4, for the ARM® architecture. The solution delivers for the first time a Linux-compatible RTOS for the ARMv4T and ARMv5TE architecture-compliant processors, as well as unparalleled hard real-time response, reliability and determinism. LynxOS v4 provides true application binary interface (ABI) compatibility to Linux, allowing users to run Linux applications unmodified under LynxOS or augment real-time applications on LynxOS with applications from Linux, eliminating the need to build applications from scratch. Developers reap the benefits associated with using a Linux platform, including shortened development times and cost savings for new embedded products. The first release of LynxOS for the ARM architecture will be on the Intel® IQ80310 I/O processor based on the Intel XScale(TM) technology, targeting storage area networking (SAN), wireless communications, and home networking markets. "ARM has always been committed to Linux and it has long been available for the ARM architecture," said Rod Crawford, product manager for OS awareness at ARM. "Now with the introduction of LynxOS for ARM, companies will be able to chose whether to run their ARM core-based applications under standard Linux or a hard real time environment with little or no change to the software." "The LynuxWorks strategic partnership with ARM breaks new ground in bringing our industry-renowned RTOS solution to the embedded market," said Dr. Inder Singh, CEO of LynuxWorks. "As more designers build feature-intensive applications for ARM core-based products, they can now enjoy the benefits of a real-time operating system and the flexibility of open standards in the Linux environment, ultimately reducing expenses and decreasing time-to-market for new products."
