Aonix Delivers Real-Time Java and Ada Applications for PikeOS.SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. -- SYSGO and AONIX today announced a cooperation to provide the PERC PERC See: Preferred equity redemption stock VM and ObjectAda environments for PikeOS. The implementation makes full use of PikeOS' multi-OS capabilities, thus allowing real-time Java, Ada and traditional Linux applications to run reliably side by side in different partitions. Aonix, a provider of complete solutions for safety- and mission-critical applications, is well known for its Ada and PERC products. PERC, a clean-room Virtual Machine (VM), supports the execution of Java(TM) platform applications in embedded systems, without sacrificing the integrity, performance, or real-time benefits of legacy approaches. PikeOS incorporates software partitioning, enabling developers to run multiple operating system APIs on top of a microkernel (1) The part of an operating system that is specialized for the hardware it is running in. The other components of the OS interact with the microkernel in a message-based relationship and do not have to be rewritten when the OS is ported to a new platform. , forming so-called "OS-personalities." Aonix's PERC VM and Ada run-time environments will add new personalities to go along with Linux, POSIX (Portable Operating System Interface for UNIX) An IEEE 1003.1 standard that defines the language interface between application programs and the Unix operating system. and OSEK OSEK Offene Systeme und Deren Schnittstellen für die Elektronik im Kraftfahrzeug (English: Open Systems and the Corresponding Interfaces for Automotive Electronics). personalities that PikeOS already supports. The PERC solution will be available Q2 2005 with the Ada solution by the end of the year. "We are proud to join forces with Aonix," states Detlev Schaadt, CTO (Chief Technical Officer) The executive responsible for the technical direction of an organization.
