Developers of automotive ECU software can now reduce their development time, produce code with fewer bugs and lower their production cost with Green Hills Software's industry-leading ECU development tools combined with RTA-OSEK.

"We are pleased that Multi has now been validated for use with our RTA-OSEK real-time operating system", commented James Dickie, RTA-OSEK Product Manager at LiveDevices.

"This solution meets the growing demand from ECU developers for an integration between these leading technologies for ECU software development".

"A considerable portion of the ECU software running on the world's automobiles was developed using Green Hills' software", said Dan O'Dowd, founder and Chief Executive Officer of Green Hills Software.

"Now RTA-OSEK users can take advantage of this solution to minimise time to volume production while maximising reliability and performance".

RTA-OSEK provides a production real-time operating system suitable for applications in all areas of automotive ECU design.

It implements the Autosar-OS V1.0 (SC-1) and OSEK/VDX OS V2.2.3 standard and is fully MISRA compliant.

An extremely small and fast runtime kernel is supplied for more than 20 popular microcontrollers.

The low overhead and advanced timing control features of RTA-OSEK are ideal for powertrain and chassis electronics applications.

RTA-OSEK is available today from LiveDevices, and Multi is available today from Green Hills Software.
