and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release SIL3-certified RTOS runs on Industrial PowerQUICC from
Green Hills Software, which we summarised at the time by saying "Combined solution helps deliver safe, reliable, independent execution and containment of the networking and communications needs of end devices in harsh environments".

we featured the news release Media processing blade boosts performance from
RadiSys Corporation: "With the new MPC-IV blade, Convedia CMS-9000 Media Servers offer the industry's highest port capacity with a lower price per port for the most demanding media processing applications".
In September 2007, we covered the news from Aonix
concerning its ObjectAda Raven
- take a look at Development system improves efficiency
which says: "ObjectAda Raven is an embedded Ada development system that enables engineers to isolate and build applications for deployment in one or more VxWorks 653 execution partitions".
Take a look also at the news release from ARM, 32bit core answers automotive safety demands,
as well as Ada development to advance air traffic control from AdaCore,
and Switchers are ready for 2008 power requirements from Power Sources Unlimited.
