Wind River releases VxWorks 6.7

18 March 2009 Design Automation

Wind River has released VxWorks version 6.7 with enhancements that enable device manufacturers to exploit the capabilities of the latest multicore processors.

The new release allows system designers to select the optimal multicore design configuration, be it asymmetric multiprocessing (AMP) or symmetric multiprocessing (SMP). It supports processors from multicore partners such as Intel, Freescale, Cavium, and Raza Microelectronics.

VxWorks 6.7 is supported by a rich set of multicore-aware tools that allow customers to efficiently develop multicore-based devices, providing advanced capabilities for configuration, build, debug and simulation. Wind River Workbench development suite is an Eclipse-based collection of tools for debugging, code analysis and testing designed to accelerate time-to-market for developers building devices. In addition, Workbench On-Chip Debugging Edition provides connectivity between the host development environment and the target device via the JTAG or on-chip debugging interface on the device, enabling more efficient and effective hardware bring-up, firmware development, and device driver and BSP generation.
