Virtutech Webinar: Navigating Through Flight Software Development.


SAN JOSE San Jose, city, United States
San Jose (sănəzā`, săn hōzā`), city (1990 pop. 782,248), seat of Santa Clara co., W central Calif.; founded 1777, inc. 1850.
, Calif. -- Virtutech Virtutech was founded in 1998 as a spin-off from the Swedish Institute of Computer Science (SICS), in Stockholm, Sweden. In 2004, the headquarters was moved to San Jose, California, USA. The Stockholm site remains the company's R&D center. , Inc.:
WHAT:  Virtutech, Inc., the leading provider of full system
       simulation technology for the development and testing of
       software for advanced electronic systems, will host a Webinar
       on "Navigating Through Flight Software Development." Find out
       how customers like Iridium, Honeywell, Draper and Lockheed-
       Martin rely on Virtutech's Simics to enable faster software
       development and, ultimately, time and cost savings.

       Some topics that will be discussed include:

       --  Full-system simulation: moving software development to the
           desktop
       --  Starting software development before hardware is available
       --  Modeling systems
       --  Simics Hindsight, reversible execution and debugging
       --  Using Simics for fault injection and regression testing

WHO:   Peter S. Magnusson, founder and CTO of Virtutech

WHEN:  Thursday, December 1, 2005
       11 a.m. PT

HOW:   Reserve your seat today by completing the online registration
       form at http://www.virtutech.com/news-press/events/webinar.pl

WHY:   Using real network systems for development testing presents a
       number of challenges. Delaying system integration until the
       real hardware is available pushes the risk to the end of the
       project. Furthermore, bringing up hardware can become a long
       process, and it is difficult to create all the failure modes
       that your company wants to regression-test when using real
       hardware. Now, aerospace and defense companies are looking to a
       much more cost-effective and time-saving solution: full-system
       simulation.

       Virtutech's Simics enables any system to be modeled on the
       computers that you already use. Virtutech's full-system
       simulation technology is so accurate that it can run unmodified
       production binaries, and, with performance as high as billions
       of simulated instructions per second, it is fast enough for
       every programmer to use as part of their edit-compile-debug
       loop, and in regression farms.


About Virtutech

Virtutech, Inc. is the leading provider of full-system simulation for electronic system software development. Virtutech's Simics Simics is a full-system simulator used to run unchanged production binaries of the target hardware at high-performance speeds. Simics was originally developed by the Swedish Institute of Computer Science (SICS), and then spun off to Virtutech for commercial development in 1998.  eliminates software developers' dependence on test hardware and drives concurrent development, enabling its customers to lower capital expenditure, accelerate time to market and reduce project risk. Based on more than a decade of R&D and close collaboration Working together on a project. See collaborative software.  with leading universities and systems vendors, Virtutech's technology serves the needs of the world's leading technology providers, including AMD (Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., Sunnyvale, CA, www.amd.com) A major manufacturer of semiconductor devices including x86-compatible CPUs, embedded processors, flash memories, programmable logic devices and networking chips. , Cisco, EMC (1) (EMC Corporation, Hopkinton, MA, www.emc.com) The leading supplier of storage products for midrange computers and mainframes.
