MicroEJ OS uses Micrium's µC/OS RTOS kernel and associated libraries
to provide software portability, scalability and security to embedded
and IoT devices
NANTES, France & AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
MicroEJ® and Micrium Software, part of the Silicon
Labs (NASDAQ: SLAB) portfolio, today announced the integration of
the MicroEJ OS application platform and µC/OS real-time operating system
(RTOS), designed to offer the best mixed C and Java language programming
environment to software developers for embedded microcontrollers and
microprocessors.
The combined solution of Micrium's µC/OS RTOS runtime components and
MicroEJ OS allows device manufacturers to quickly deliver embedded
software that offers a richer user experience. MicroEJ and Micrium
support a wide range of microcontroller architectures and evaluation
kits, making this solution portable across all hardware configurations.
As a result, manufacturers can capitalize on their software investment.
"MicroEJ allows device manufacturers to better manage the software
content of their IoT devices by offering flexibility through dynamic and
secure download of code as apps," said Vincent Perrier, chief marketing
officer of MicroEJ. "The combined Micrium µC/OS RTOS and MicroEJ OS are
optimized for performance, power and footprint, so cost-effective,
low-power IoT devices can benefit from capabilities, business models and
ecosystems similar to mobile solutions with the online MicroEJ Store."
"Micrium offers the most comprehensive and integrated environment for
developing embedded software applications written in the C language on a
large set of processors and boards," said Jean Labrosse, founder of
Micrium. "With MicroEJ, embedded developers can benefit from the
productivity, security and scalability offered by a virtualization
platform with minimal performance and footprint overhead. The combined
Micrium and MicroEJ solution allows the Java development community to
benefit from Micrium's real-time and safety-critical capabilities,
regardless of hardware platform."
Combining Micrium and MicroEJ solutions for developing and deploying
software for IoT and embedded devices enables:
-
Support for a diversity of cost-effective and low-power hardware
-
Reliable and optimized low-level software runtime that makes the most
of available hardware services and allows connection to a variety of
networks
-
Delivery of a software platform to a large community of programmers
that allows portable application development
-
Connectivity to IoT cloud platforms for deployment of cloud-based
services and big data analytics
-
Dynamic app download that allows flexible software content management
and the creation of ecosystems around online stores
The combined MicroEJ and Micrium solution is available today and will be
demonstrated at ARM TechCon 2016 (http://www.armtechcon.com/)
in Micrium's booth, #800. The expo will take place at the Santa Clara
Convention Center in Santa Clara, California, on October 26-27, 2016.
