Press Releases

SYSGO, the leading manufacturer of software for safety-critical applications, today announces version 3.0 of its secure virtualisation platform PikeOS. PikeOS 3.0 includes a new version of the Eclipse-based development environment CODEO, support for new architectures, DO-178 B certifiability and many other improvements.

Steering without steering linkage, flying on autopilot, computer-assisted operations - software for embedded systems can already perform many functions today. But what about safety? How can the risks be covered in a justifiable way? The solution is virtualisation.

SYSGO, the leading supplier reports an exceptionally successful year for 2008, confirming the high expectations for its product portfolio. Thanks to the conclusion of strategically important projects such as with Airbus, the SYSGO Group's turnover increased by 40% and earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) by 12%. The number of jobs increased by 15%.

AdaCore, provider of high quality Ada tools and support, and SYSGO, provider of operating systems and development tools for embedded systems, today announced the availability of GNAT Pro for ELinOS, SYSGO's embedded Linux development environment for industrial applications. GNAT Pro for ELinOS combines the reliability of Ada, the productivity of the GNAT Pro toolset and the AdaCore support with the flexibility and modularity of ELinOS.

AdaCore is offering an embedded Linux add-on for its high-level ADA development tools. GNAT Pro for SYSGO's ELinOS Linux distribution brings the industrially oriented Linux distribution support for the first available implementation of the ADA 2005 standard.

ELinOS, the embedded Linux development environment from SYSGO, now supports Adobe Flash Lite 3.1.

SYSGO today announced the availability of PikeOS on MPL’s ruggedized PIP10 platform, enabling the use of virtualization technologies in extreme environments. PikeOS allows multiple operating system APIs to run concurrently on one hardware platform, such as POSIX, Linux, and Java, thus supporting the effort of industrial manufacturers to reuse legacy code in long product life cycles.

With the opening of a subsidiary in Rostock, SYSGO AG is reacting to the increasing demand for PikeOS and related certification projects in safety-critical markets. The development site is to be expanded to 15 engineers over the next 18 months.

SYSGO today announced the availability of a PikeOS Board Support Package(BSP) for Freescale's MPC8379EMDS. The board provides a Modular Development System (MDS) and is populated with the MPC8379E processor, a PowerQUICC II Pro communication processor based on the high performance power architecture of the e300 core.

Terex O&K has selected the PikeOS virtualization technology for driver assistance systems of its excavators. SYSGO succeeded in the selection process with its innovation solution that allows the reuse of legacy code in new projects together with new technologies.

PikeOS is gaining acceptance as a virtualization platform for embedded real-time systems. More and more companies in avionics, automotive, military, security and medical technology are recognising the advantages of secure partitioning for their applications. With complete isolation of all operating systems running together on one hardware platform, PikeOS provides security - functional security for the application and security against hostile attacks or data corruption.

SYSGO, leading provider of software solutions for safety-critical applications, today announces the release of ELinOS 4.2, its embedded Linux development environment for industrial applications.

SYSGO, leading supplier of software solutions for the most demanding safety and security applications, and SYSTEREL, specialized in developing embedded real time or safety critical systems, announced today a new partnership based on complementary offerings and a similar core business synergy.

SYSGO, the global supplier of highly reliable device software, today announce that German traffic technology and solution specialist Signalbau Huber, will use PikeOS as future application platform for their traffic control systems. PikeOS will be the foundation for the urban traffic control and management systems built by Signalbau Huber. Using PikeOS, the number of boards used in the traffic control system could be reduced significantly which lead to an increase of the stability and…

aicas, the leading manufacturer of Java technology for critical real-time systems, and SYSGO, a global provider of highly reliable device software, have announced the availability of aicas JamaicaVM for PikeOS. This is the first result of a strategic collaboration between the two companies. aicas and SYSGO will coordinate their future research efforts to improve operating system support for Java.
