Concurrent and Opal-RT Technologies Announce Exclusive Strategic Alliance for RT-LAB Simulation Software On Linux.Business Editors ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 10, 2003 Co-Development Agreement Provides Concurrent with Exclusive Rights to Linux Port of Opal-RT's Popular RT-LAB(TM) Concurrent Computer Corporation Please help [ rewrite this article] from a neutral point of view. Mark blatant advertising for , using . (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on : CCUR CCUR Center for Crops Utilization Research ), Real-Time Division, today announced a strategic partnership agreement with Opal-RT Technologies, a leader in distributed simulation on PC-based platforms. The agreement encompasses Opal-RT's development of a new Linux version of its widely acclaimed RT-LAB software for Concurrent's iHawk(TM) Series 860 family of systems powered by RedHawk(TM) Linux(R), as well as provisions for Concurrent to be the sole reseller of the RT-LAB Linux offering outside of Canada. The new product will be promoted under the RT-LAB RLX RLX Relaxin brand. Under the terms of the agreement, RT-LAB RLX will include base functionality equivalent to Opal-RT's RT-LAB product family with an extended 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 driver feature set. Compatibility with leading simulation development toolsuites including The MathWorks' Matlab(R)/Simulink(R) and National Instruments' MATRIXx(TM) will be inherent in the offering. Opal-RT and Concurrent will cooperatively develop the product to ensure product features respond to a wide range of real-time simulation requirements. Further terms of the agreement include provisions for cooperative marketing, customer support and training. General availability of RT-LAB RLX is scheduled for December 2003. Opal-RT will retain the right to sell RT-LAB RLX in Canada, and will also become an iHawk reseller for Canada. The iHawk Series 860 is Concurrent's high performance, multiprocessor, PCI-based computer platform based on the Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU CPU in full central processing unit Principal component of a digital computer, composed of a control unit, an instruction-decoding unit, and an arithmetic-logic unit. . The heart of the iHawk is Concurrent's RedHawk Linux operating system operating system (OS) Software that controls the operation of a computer, directs the input and output of data, keeps track of files, and controls the processing of computer programs. , compatible with the popular Red Hat Linux Red Hat Linux, assembled by Red Hat, was a popular, "middle-aged" Linux distribution (not as old as Slackware but older than Ubuntu) upon its discontinuation in 2004.[1] Red Hat Linux 1.0 was released on November 3, 1994. distribution and enhanced by Concurrent's real-time Linux kernel The nucleus of the Linux operating system. The Linux kernel, which was developed by Linus Torvalds, was integrated with software from the GNU Project and other sources to create the actual Linux operating system. See Linux, GNU/Linux and kernel. . The iHawk continues to prove its prowess in the simulation industry with a growing customer program base, which includes the Eurofighter ITD ITD Idaho Transportation Department ITD Information Technology Division (at NRL) ITD Information Technology Division (MMDS) itd I Tak Dalej (Polish: And So On) , the F-18, the EA-6B, the JAS-39 Grippen, the Tiger attack helicopter A helicopter specifically designed to employ various weapons to attack and destroy enemy targets. and THAAD THAAD Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense (formerly Theater High Altitude Area Defense) THAAD Theater High Altitude Area Defense (now Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense) missile program. Opal-RT's RT-LAB simulation software Simulation software is based on the process of imitating a real phenomenon with a set of mathematical formulas. It is, essentially, a program that allows the user to observe an operation through simulation without actually running the program. is a widely adopted real-time distributed platform leveraged by engineers who use mathematical block diagrams for simulation, control and related applications. Built using commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) technologies, RT-LAB offers a scalable, high-performance, real-time environment for the most demanding of hard-real-time simulations from complex dynamic models developed in Simulink and MATRIXx software. RT-LAB also enables the incorporation of specialized plant modeling tools for engineering components, such as internal combustion engines, hydraulic systems, car dynamics and flexible multi-body mechanical systems, as well as electrical and power electronic systems.

Marie-Paul-Hyacinthe Meyer (January 17, 1840 - September 7, 1917), was a French philologist. , president of Concurrent's Real-Time Division, "The synergies of this partnership, as well as the customer benefit byproducts, are plentiful. The COTS and real-time attributes of both iHawk and RT-LAB will truly deliver a best-of-breed solution for simulation engineers desiring off-the-shelf components with uncompromising speed, scalability and determinism. We expect this partnership will position us for growth in the $200 million automotive hardware-in-the-loop simulation sector and allow us to offer a more complete solution set to our aerospace customers." According to Jean Belanger, president, Opal-RT Technologies, Inc., "The combination of our distributed real-time technologies and the Concurrent platform will allow engineers and scientists to extend their simulation capabilities into areas only currently imagined. Research laboratory managers will also appreciate the totally integrated and high-performance solution this partnership offers - at the right price and at minimal risk."
