SYSGO continues to respond to increasing demand for its innovative and certified solutions on a worldwide basis. In response to growing requests from the important UK market, SYSGO and Phaedrus Systems have established a new partnership that brings SYSGO's innovative solutions to this market. Phaedrus Systems has developed a deep expertise in the embedded / real-time domain, especially in key SYSGO sectors - those requiring a high level of reliability.

"Phaedrus Systems' focus on the safety-critical and high-reliability embedded sector makes it an ideal distribution partner to build business in Britain," said Bruno Privat, European Sales Director at SYSGO. "The targeted approach means that the customers' requirements can be matched with the right tools for their application development.".

Phaedrus will be distributing PikeOS, an embedded systems platform where multiple virtual machines can run simultaneously in a secure environment, which is also the first commercial implementation of the SSV (Safe and Secure Virtualization) concept. Also part of the distribution agreement are the other products of SYSGO's portfolio: ELinOS, Industrial Grade Linux, Portable AFDX, the first completely genuine software implementation of AFDX® (Avionics Full-Duplex Switched Ethernet) used in civil and military aerospace programs, and the complementary range of board support packages.

"With PikeOS, developers have a route to a small footprint, multiple personality RTOS," said Chris Hills, founder and CTO of Phaedrus Systems. "We are proud to add SYSGO to our carefully selected portfolio of embedded tools."
