Integration Toolkit-PC Product Announcement
Multiprocessor Toolsmiths Inc. announces an innovative cross
development environment called the Integration Toolkit-PC.
This toolkit simplifies and streamlines the design and integration
phases of real-time system software development on IBM compatibles
running MS-DOS or PC-DOS. Its use results in better quality products,
produced in less time, with both cash flow and profit improvements.
The Integration Toolkit consists of five main components. The
Unison Operating System is a real-time multiprocessor, multitasking
operating system. CopyCat provides complete Unison simulation
in the development environment. Remedy is a system level debugger
for Unison, and Composer is an automatic system builder. A set of
support tools provides downloading and other utilities. This
comprehensive, integrated environment provides the means for you to
achieve substantial reductions in design time, integration time,
and system cost. Using the toolkit also improves software quality,
reduces development risks, and improves product adaptability.
The Unison Operating System provides communication, synchronization,
resource management, and device support software modules for building
real-time embedded multiprocessor and uniprocessor systems. Software
subsystem reuse is the most effective method available
to increase system development productivity. It improves system
quality, reduces your development time, reduces your system costs,
maximizes your product flexibility, and minimizes your development risks.
Unison has multilingual capabilities, including direct support for Ada.
Standards support also includes Unix compatible I/O and networking.
Transparent multiprocessing, an open architecture, portability,
extensive device support, and dynamic resource management round out the
feature set. These features provide you with the latest technological
innovations and emerging standards. Using Unison insures that you keep
abreast of this rapidly changing technology and position yourself in
the mainstream of real-time computing.
The Integration Toolkit offers an integrated, comprehensive set of tools
to build real-time embedded systems. Using sophisticated tools, like
Remedy and CopyCat, is the second most effective means of increasing
development productivity. These tools improve system quality, reduce
integration time reduce system cost, and minimize integration risks.
The toolkit supports a networked development environment.
It provides target system configuration management, high
bandwidth downloading, and flexible information exchange.
The time savings, cohesive project team building, and effective
resource utilization this produces are of substantial importance.
The Integration Toolkit-PC development tools run on IBM compatibles
running MS-DOS or PC-DOS. In general, the Integration Toolkit runs
on a heterogeneous set of host computers. This set includes Unix work
stations, and Unix terminal based systems. This broad set of host
hardware provides the means to evolve your environment to adjust to
a changing world. The ability to improve resource utilization,
reduce purchase risk, and increase cash flow are also beneficial.
The Unison Operating System provides essential real-time embedded system
features. Message timeouts and calendar clock features improve
exception handling. Very high performance messaging,
prioritized natural break scheduling, and transparent
multiprocessing, reduce the necessity for
system optimization, thereby saving both time and money.
Support for a broad set of device handlers minimizes system customization
requirements, which results in time and resource savings.
The Integration Toolkit uses text windows and function keys,
simple, comprehensive documentation, and on line help
facilities. These features insure that the toolkit is easy to
learn, and easy to use. The net resource and time savings are
substantial.
Training and structured methods are an integral part of the product.
They provide the means to optimize the use of the toolset, producing
productivity and quality improvements, and reducing risk.
The Integration Toolkit comes with complete support, including
training, telephone support and
emergency services, porting services, and field troubleshooting
support. This comprehensive set of services ensures that you may
introduce the toolkit into your organization easily and effectively,
and that it will continue to meet your needs.
You may purchase the Integration Toolkit by component.
Volume discounts apply. A complete system costs $5790 US.
