Flexible system architectures similar to the Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA) concept can be transferred from avionics to space. This is one of the essential findings from the OBC-SA research project, which after successful development of demonstrators is looking to start its third phase. The core of the system architecture is SYSGO’s PikeOS hypervisor, which enables complex mission-critical space travel applications on modern multi-core processors thanks to secure partitioning.

Together with eleven international partners, SYSGO starts the EU project SAFURE that aims at the development of a platform for integrated safety and security for critical systems in the Internet of Things. Main objective of the project is to provide a framework for integrated safety and security that identifies and avoids security threats for the functional safety of networked systems. A new methodology enables the joint design of functional safety and security and provides system designers and…

SYSGO and Kaspersky Lab have announced the result of their partnership on integration of the new platform into the real-time operating system, PikeOS. Combined with PikeOS, Kaspersky Security System ensures that performed communications comply with security policies. It can be used in industrial systems to protect devices at the supervisory and control (SCADA) level, in connected Internet of Things (IoT) devices to assure their proper behaviour, and in automotive systems to separate the…

"We are very happy to have the X-ES XPedite6101 supported by our certified hypervisor PikeOS", said George Brooks, Director of Business Development at SYSGO. "Our relationship with X-ES answers market interests in our combined solutions addressing the high performance and safety critical needs of our mutual customer base."

At the Berlin rail fair InnoTrans, SYSGO and UniControls agreed on the development of a joint COTS (Commercial-of-the-Shelf) platform for the railway industry targeting the highest safety level. With CS-C01, UniControls contributes a Freescale QorlQ P3041 Quadcore communication processor based hardware, which is supported by SYSGO’s hypervisor PikeOS. PikeOS already runs on Freescale’s P3041DS Hydra and is certified to the highest level SIL 4 of the railway safety standard EN 50128. UniControls…

SYSGO with PikeOS and Interface Concept with its Core i7 Intel VPX 3U and 6U platforms collaborate to offer processing solutions for the embedded defense and aerospace market. These solutions benefit from the most recent technologies available in the design of OpenVPX COTS Single Board Computers while offering high performance real-time processing capabilities.

“Local presence is important for a successful and reliable long-term cooperation with our customers, especially when their applications are focused on solutions for safe and secure applications,” explains Norbert Kuhrt, VP of Sales at SYSGO. “We are happy to get Nohau on board as a distributor and certified partner for our activities in Norway, Sweden and Denmark.” Kuhrt is sure that Nohau’s experience in the local embedded market combined with SYSGO’s product portfolio will provide optimized…

Devices and machinery for the Internet of Things are highly complex systems that must be tested according to industry-specific standards and protected against enemy attacks. The product development in this area usually takes several years, in which an optimal cooperation between manufacturers and suppliers is critical to the success of the project. With the newly created position of Director Certification, SYSGO bundles the human, technical and organizational responsibilities of these projects…

At the Berlin railway technology fair InnoTrans, SYSGO and Kontron present a joint platform for safe rail systems. SYSGO’s hypervisor PikeOS is certified to the highest level SIL 4 of railway safety standard EN 50128 and runs on the Kontron VX3035 3U Single Board Computer with Intel Multi-Core i7 processor. At the booth of Kontron (booth no. 320 in hall 2.1), visitors can learn about the safety-tested platform.

Only two weeks after the release of its hypervisor PikeOS 3.5, SYSGO presents today the new version 6.0 of the embedded Linux distribution ELinOS. Core element of the update is the redesigned in-house development environment CODEO 5.1, which now combines all the tools for the development of industrial Linux projects under one user interface. For use in embedded systems, ELinOS features an optimized Linux kernel 3.12. The latest CPUs for embedded systems have been added to the list of supported…

SYSGO announces today the release of version 3.5 of its hypervisor PikeOS. Focus of the innovation is the support of hardware virtualization enabling the execution of guest operating systems without any adaption. Additionally, PikeOS 3.5 is equipped with an enhanced PikeOS Native personality and improved Linux support by using ELinOS 6.0 and Android 4.3.1. The integrated development environment CODEO has also been updated and speeds up the configuration process of ELinOS and Android…

SYSGO appoints Norbert Kuhrt as Vice President Sales to further accelerate the company's growth in safety-critical systems. With many years of experience in the embedded software market, Nobert Kuhrt will lead the global sales teams and sales activities.

Vector Software, the world’s leading provider of innovative software solutions for testing safety and mission critical embedded applications, announced today that the company has partnered with SYSGO GmbH to offer the VectorCAST™ software test tool in an integration with the latest version of microkernel based real-time operating system (RTOS) PikeOS 3.4. Certified to the highest safety and security standards, this RTOS is used in safety-critical applications such as aircraft, rail, medical…

SYSGO expands its virtualization platform PikeOS with support for the high-end infotainment system Renesas R-CAR H2 for the automotive market. PikeOS provides full hardware virtualization for the high performance system-on-chip platform and achieves almost identical benchmarks for virtualized as for native systems.

SYSGO’s Stuart Fisher talks at DASIA in Warsaw to system and software designers about the key role of the operating system to meet the standards necessary to promote multi-core CPU’s in products requiring safety and/or security certification.
