MapuSoft Technologies Announces the
Newest Release of OS Changer®
3.0
A Streamlined
Software Tool that Provides Developers the Flexibility to Write New Embedded
Applications Suitable for Multiple RTOS and Reuse Various Legacy
Code-base
Release
3.0 adds RTOS portability and legacy code-migration solutions to
Linux®
November 24, 2003 MOBILE, AL - MapuSoft Technologies today announced the release of OS
Changer 3.0, a cross RTOS development/target solution that provides developers
the flexibility to develop and reuse legacy code across a variety of RTOSs.
"Who has
the time & budget for developer training or to take-on a long-term porting
project? asks Raj Johnson, president and CEO of MapuSoft Technologies. OS
Changer greatly reduces cost and time-to-market by allowing you to re-use your
existing software easily over Linux and other popular RTOS platforms instantly.
OS
Changer 3.0 adds Multi-RTOSTM Abstraction API that allows developers
to write one set of code that is highly optimized for several popular RTOSs and
now Linux. Current release supports application migration path from VxWorks®,
pSOS® and Nucleus PLUS® to several Linux platforms. Implementation is based on
POSIX 1003.1a, 1003.1b and 1003.1c layers to provide the necessary portability
across various Linux distributions. Further optimizations and tighter
integrations are optionally available over selected Linux distributions.
"Cutting
cost seems to be a strong motivator for developers moving to LINUX. Also, a
wealth of CPU support, device driver support and network solutions that are
easily available on LINUX make this an attractive choice. Adding support for
Linux in OS Changer 3.0 makes this move easier than ever
" says Raj Johnson,
president and CEO of MapuSoft Technologies.
OS Changer
tools hide the RTOS
differences and allow developers to focus on their product development. OS Changer simplifies porting and also
saves developers from future porting efforts. The OS Changer family of products gives users
the freedom to switch RTOSs and greatly reuse existing code base to enable their
product to get to the market faster with lower development costs. These products
come in the form of individual compatibility and/or abstraction API libraries
that are fully scalable and readily usable within an application. OS Changer
does not require modification to the underlying RTOS
products.

OS Changer 3.0 is available now. OS Changer
single API component can be licensed at $4995 for first developer and $1995
