Green Hills Software Achieves Trillium's Compliance Certification for INTEGRITY RTOS.Business Editors & High-Tech Writers SANTA BARBARA Santa Barbara (săn'tə bär`brə, –bərə), city (1990 pop. 85,571), seat of Santa Barbara co., S Calif., on the Pacific Ocean; inc. 1850. , Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 22, 2002 Trillium Compliant(TM) System Services Interface Offered Between INTEGRITY Version 4.0 and Trillium's Communications Protocols Green Hills Software announced today that Trillium Digital Systems, a division of Intel Corp., has certified the integration of Green Hills' INTEGRITY(TM) version 4.0 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. with Trillium's communications protocols. Certified as Trillium Compliant(TM), Green Hills Software is allowed to distribute a Trillium Advanced Portability Architecture (TAPA(R)) interface for the INTEGRITY RTOS (1) (RealTime Operating System) An operating system designed for use in a real time computer system. See real time system, embedded system, process control and OS-9. that enables users to seamlessly deploy Trillium's wide range of TAPA-based communications software (communications, software) communications software - Application programs, operating system components, and probably firmware, forming part of a communication system. These different software components might be classified according to the functions within the Open Systems . "The Trillium Compliant certification program helps us give Green Hills Software an advantage in offering products that can easily adopt best-in-class software solutions without significant design changes," said Frank Morese, vice president of marketing for Trillium Digital Systems, a division of Intel Corp. "Trillium's business relationship with Green Hills Software is further strengthened by this certification, and we look forward to working even more closely together to provide customers a platform for addressing demanding, mission-critical telecom applications." "INTEGRITY's memory-protected, fault-tolerant architecture makes it ideal for hosting high-end telecom applications that demand high availability Also called "RAS" (reliability, availability, serviceability) or "fault resilient," it refers to a multiprocessing system that can quickly recover from a failure. There may be a minute or two of downtime while one system switches over to another, but processing will continue. ," commented John Carbone John Carbone is an Australian football (soccer) player who played a number of years in the National Soccer League for Perth Glory and the Brisbane Strikers. , Green Hills' vice president of marketing. "The availability of Trillium's industry-leading communications protocols for INTEGRITY greatly enhances our telecom offering, and provides a versatile platform for quickly deploying robust, ultra-dependable, high-end telecom applications." INTEGRITY is a maximum-availability, fault-tolerant RTOS designed for mission-critical applications requiring memory protection and secure operation. Optimized for fast, secure, deterministic response, INTEGRITY features advanced memory protection capabilities, dynamic download, task- and system-level debug To correct a problem in hardware or software. Debugging software means locating the errors in the source code (the program logic). Debugging hardware means finding errors in the circuit design (logical circuits) or in the physical interconnections of the circuits. , optional 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. support, and extensive embedded Internet and telephony protocol support. INTEGRITY is fully integrated with Green Hills' award winning MULTI MULTI Multiple (R) 2000 development environment, which combines a family of optimizing C/C C/C Center to Center C/C Combustion Chamber C/C Command/Control C/C Crew Chief C/C cabin cruiser (US DoD) C/C chief complaint (medical) C/C Channel-to-Channel C/C Communication and Collaboration ++/EC++ and Ada95 compilers with an advanced source-level debugger, version control system, source editor, browser, profiler, run-time error checker, simulator, and real-time EventAnalyzer(TM). Green Hills also offers a high-speed debug Probe (Green Hills Probe(TM)) that makes it easy for MULTI users to upload data from INTEGRITY target systems, run, halt, and reset the target processor, read/write the processor's registers and memory, single-step through code and set breakpoints. TAPA is a set of architectural and coding standards that enhance the portability of Trillium's communications software across multiple operating systems, processors and compilers. INTEGRITY, now fully compliant with TAPA, enables embedded applications that it hosts to access Trillium's protocols on the target system. The Trillium Compliant program certifies the accuracy and completeness of the integration. Trillium and a chosen alliance member like Green Hills jointly test and verify the integration, offering equipment manufacturers a fully integrated, validated solution. The results are proven interoperability, time to market savings and risk reduction through a Trillium Compliant solution. INTEGRITY users can seamlessly adopt Trillium's wide array of communications software solutions used by industry-leading suppliers of wireless, Internet, broadband and telephony products.
