Scheduler is designed for avionics control simulation.
Press Release Summary:
Available as component in RTLinuxPro® development kit, ARINC 653 scheduling provides protected and partitioned scheduling environment configured using standard XML format. Partitions use POSIX standard API threads, semaphores, and shared memory, and applications can be written in C, C++, and FORTRAN. Scheduler is available for x86, PPC, 64/32bit, uniprocessors, SMP and multi-core.
Original Press Release:
ARINC 653 for RTLinuxPro Released
SOCORRO, N.M., Jan. 25 / -- FSMLabs, (http://www.fsmlabs.com/) today announced ARINC 653 scheduling is now available in RTLinuxPro®. Designed for avionics control and advanced hardware-in-loop simulation, ARINC 653 provides a fully protected and partitioned scheduling environment configured using a standard XML format. The ARINC scheduler has been added to FSMLabs' industry leading Process Space Development Domain (PSDD) product which executes real-time threads in the address space of Linux or BSD processes.
Richard Bond, in his work as Principal Real-Time Specialist for Lockheed-Martin developed an RTLinuxPro based simulator, contributes:
"RTLinuxPro and PSDD enabled a simple simulation framework, allowed me the choice to develop user-level I/O drivers, and provided outstanding performance. ARINC 653 support will make this tool even more useful."
PSDD is especially well suited to large scale simulation and test applications.
Dean Anneser, a Software Engineering Fellow at Pratt & Whitney says:
"PSDD provides a very stable cost effective scalable multi-platform solution for our simulation, control, and data acquisition systems."
FSMLabs ARINC 653 partitions use RTCore's POSIX standard API: threads, semaphores, shared memory and other standard interfaces. Applications may be written in "C," C++, and FORTRAN. ADA support is planned. A single device can run ARINC partitions alongside standard RTCore threads, Linux and Linux applications. Multi-processor systems can run multiple ARINC "cabinets" and may reserve processors for real-time where ultimate performance is required. Even without reservation, FSMLabs ARINC 653 provides low microsecond hard real-time execution.
ARINC 653 support is an optional component for the RTLinuxPro development kit, which provides all of the tools needed to build hard real-time applications out of the box, including all development tools. Other options include an Eclipse based IDE, a complete Carrier Grade Linux distribution, VME direct drive, and real-time networking.
Availability: Immediate for x86, PPC, 64/32bit, uniprocessors, SMP & multi-core.
