Germany-based Simotion plans to use Concurrent's iHawk system for critical driving simulation applications, ensuring automotive response and reliability. A system engineering services company, Simotion has been delivering hardware and software engineering in the automotive and radio network domain for almost 20 years. Simotion said it chose Concurrent, in part, because of the company's history of real-time performance and the compatibility of RedHawk Linux with open standards Specifications for hardware and software that are developed by a standards organization or a consortium involved in supporting a standard. Available to the public for developing compliant products, open standards imply "open systems;" that an existing component in a system can be replaced . "Concurrent's successful history of high performance computing is well-known throughout the simulation industry, and their longevity speaks to the company's continued commitment to providing time-critical computing solutions of the highest standards," said Franz Markus Reich, Founder and Managing Director of Simotion. "Our company has been providing system engineering services for nearly two decades, and Concurrent clearly demonstrated its ability to meet our stringent requirements, with an open standards solution. In the future, we look forward to also using the iHawk in the vehicle dynamics Vehicle dynamics refers to the dynamics of vehicles, here assumed to be ground vehicles. For two-wheeled vehicles see Bicycle and motorcycle dynamics. For the dynamics of air vehicles see Aerodynamics. and vibration control domain." "Concurrent has a strong history of providing exceptional simulation solutions throughout the automotive and aerospace industries and is excited to be partnering with Simotion as their simulation host to a well-known automotive manufacturer," said Warren Neuburger, Concurrent Chief Operating Officer Chief Operating Officer (COO) The officer of a firm responsible for day-to-day management, usually the president or an executive vice-president. . "With its various driver assistance systems and other hardware-in-the-loop applications, Simotion is a trusted engineering services company, and we look forward to further building on this relationship." Simotion has also recently joined Concurrent's Channel Partner Program. By becoming a Concurrent Channel Partner, Simotion will be able to offer its customers highly deterministic, real-time computing “Realtime” redirects here. For other uses, see Realtime (disambiguation). In computer science, real-time computing (RToC) is the study of hardware and software systems which are subject to a "real-time constraint"—i.e. solutions based on Concurrent's global technological expertise and history of nearly 40 years of proven, mission-critical computing across a variety of industries. The iHawk is Concurrent's high-performance, PCI-based, commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) computer platform for time-critical data acquisition, simulation, financial and industrial systems applications. At the heart of each iHawk system is Concurrent's RedHawk Linux real-time operating system (operating system) Real-Time Operating System - (RTOS) Any operating system where interrupts are guaranteed to be handled within a certain specified maximum time, thereby making it suitable for control of hardware in embedded systems and other time-critical applications. . Compatible with the popular Red Hat(R) Linux distribution The Linux operating system packaged for customers for a fee. It includes the Linux kernel, essential operating system components from the GNU Project, an installation program, various open source utilities and applications, documentation and technical support. , RedHawk Linux features high I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output. I/O - Input/Output throughput, fast response to external events, and optimized interprocess communication See IPC. . iHawk is used by leading companies worldwide for real-time data Real-time data denotes information that is delivered immediately after collection. There is no delay in the timeliness of the information provided. Some uses of this term confuse it with the term dynamic data. acquisition and simulation in the aerospace, automotive and defense industries. Concurrent will be showcasing its iHawk platform and its applications at the international ITEC ITEC Instituto de Tecnologia em Informática e Informação do Estado de Alagoas ITEC International Therapy Examination Council (UK) ITEC Internet Technology ITEC Institute for Tropical Ecology and Conservation ITEC Instructional Technologies conference, held April 26-28 in Amsterdam, booth #38B.
