RTOS support for Java virtual machine
The newest release of the NewMonics PERC Java virtual machine (JVM) will support Accelerated Technology's popular Nucleus real-time operating system.
Java virtual machine aims for carrier control
NewMonics has developed the first Java virtual machine specifically for use in the product development life cycle of the management and control plane functions of carrier-class products.
The Platform Partner level of participation is by invitation only, and requires Platform Partners' technologies to be aligned with Wind River products from roadmap through development, QA and test to ensure seamless integration.
Platform Partnership strategically positions Aonix with select upper-tier partners focused on driving joint business through one or more of Wind River's vertical market segments.
Aonix addresses Wind River's Aerospace and Defence segment and offers years of servicing many customers with Ada real-time and DO-178B certified development solutions.

Virtual machine tackles large dynamic systems
Perc 4.2 is a clean-room virtual machine expressly created to manage the complexity of large, dynamic real-time systems.
Now, as a Platform Partner, Aonix is closely aligned with Wind River strategic direction for Java developers, providing industry-leading real-time virtual machines and tools tightly coupled with the Wind River development and execution environment.
"It is an honour to be selected by Wind River as a Platform Partner", stated Gary Cato, Aonix Manager of Strategic Alliances.
"Plans are already underway for a joint safety-critical Java solution".
"Current Ada customers are enquiring about the potential of PERC, and C/C++ developers are eager for a better solution for their mission- and safety-critical applications as well".
"We look forward to expanding this interest to the larger Wind River audience".
"Safety critical expertise and ability to address customers with large or complex projects sets Aonix apart from other vendors", said Chip Downing, Aerospace and Defence Industry Marketing Manager at Wind River.
"Aonix' development tools, especially the newer PERC real-time and safety-critical products, offer significant help to VxWorks platform users wanting to move up to a more modern, cost-effective development solution for ever-increasing levels of complexity".
PERC Ultra is the ideal solution for embedded applications of high complexity, thanks to PERC Ultra's predictable performance and its extensive support of off-the-shelf J2SE libraries and components.
Its sister product, PERC Pico, meets the needs of resource-constrained hard real-time applications, featuring performance and footprint characteristics comparable to C.
PERC Pico is smaller and faster than any other real-time virtual machine, yet it preserves key virtues of Java such as portability, reliability, and scalability.
PERC Ultra and PERC Pico are interoperable within a single application.
For the first time, it is now possible for Java developers to create complete complex applications from infrastructure to the device level, without resorting to the use of other languages with less portability and robust memory use for specialised components.
PERC Ultra for VxWorks 6.x is shipping now for Windows and Solaris hosts and PowerPC targets with AOT and JIT compilation.
PERC development tools are available at no charge in combination with a maintenance contract.
Target execution and deployment license pricing is based on projected volume.
ObjectAda Real-Time for VxWorks is shipping now.
