Mercury Computer Systems has announced the MultiCore Plus SDK 1.0 software suite, a collection of software products developed for the Cell Broadband Engine (BE) and other multicore processors The focus of the MultiCore Plus SDK is performance and developer productivity

This seamless package of software development tools and libraries enables users to take full advantage of the multicore processors' computational model to maximise an application's resources and boost performance.

The Beta version of this software has been in use at customers across industries since late 2005 including aerospace and defence, seismic, semiconductor, life sciences, digital media and national labs.

Last year, Mercury and IBM announced an alliance focused on the joint development, engineering and commercialisation of Cell BE processor-based products.

Since then, Mercury has announced a family of Cell BE processor-based products including the Cell Accelerator Board (CAB), a 1U blade server, the ruggedised PowerBlock 200, and Cell technology-based development systems available in multiple form factors.

Mercury and IBM both recently announced the general availability of a Cell BE processor-based IBM BladeCenter blade which both companies are actively selling.

General availability of the Mercury MultiCore Plus SDK 1.0 is scheduled for this month.
