According to testing conducted by PrismTech, this combined SDR solution has demonstrated breakthrough performance on multiple processors from Freescale and Intel, including round trip times of less than 10 seconds to power up, initialize the platform, load waveform components, unload waveform components, and shut down the radio. http://www.prismtech.com/section-item.asp?id=940 Mon, 19 Oct 2009 11:47:19 +0100 PrismTech, the world leader in Open Source high-performance communications middleware, today announced the availability of the Open Source OpenSplice DDS Connector for Apache Camel. This new connector, developed as part of a contract award from the MIT Lincoln Laboratory, makes the systems integration and Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) connectivity of Data Distribution Service (DDS) applications easier than ever before. Apache Camel is an Open Source transport-independent routing and mediation engine implementing the key Enterprise Integration Patterns that enable users to route, transform, filter and aggregate messages flowing across transports such as JMS, HTTP, REST, Web Services, XMPP, and now DDS. The use of Apache Camel greatly simplifies the task of systems integration by adapting message formats as well as allowing information to go beyond the technology boundaries imposed by a specific transport. In summary, the integration of OpenSplice DDS into Apache Camel (1) greatly simplifies the integration of new and existing DDS applications, and (2) allows DDS data to be exposed to an open-ended set of SOA and web technologies. OpenSplice DDS is the most advanced, complete, and widely used (commercial and Open Source), implementation of the Object Management Group's Data Distribution Service for Real-Time Systems (OMG DDS). OpenSplice DDS is particularly popular for demanding data distribution applications in vertical markets such as air traffic management, military systems, low-latency financial trading systems, and real-time SCADA. http://www.prismtech.com/section-item.asp?id=937 Tue, 6 Oct 2009 16:03:12 +0100 PrismTech an acknowledged leader in Software-Defined Radio (SDR) infrastructure solutions, today announced the General Availability (GA) release of its new model-driven development tool for radio developers - Spectra CX.Developed in partnership with fellow industry leader, Zeligsoft, Spectra CX is a third generation, fully-featured model-driven development tool that helps to simplify, accelerate and validate a Software Communications Architecture (SCA) development process. Spectra CX validates SCA compliance at both the architectural and unit test level, and generates correct-by-construction SCA compliant artifacts, such as: XML descriptor files, compliance test reports, and validation documentation. Spectra CX enables SCA and non-SCA software aspects to be developed together, integrated early, and thoroughly tested. Spectra CX also helps to reduce development risk due to its consistent model-based approach. Together these benefits result in faster time-to-market, lower costs, better software quality, and superior compliance for all SCA waveform and platform code developed with Spectra CX. Spectra CX is built on IBM's (UML 2.0-based) Rational Software Modeler and the Eclipse tools framework. Thus Spectra CX is fully industry-standards compliant and leverages the very latest in software tools technology. http://www.prismtech.com/section-item.asp?id=933 Wed, 16 Sep 2009 15:05:37 +0100 PrismTech, an acknowledged leader in Software Defined Radio (SDR) infrastructure solutions, and Zeligsoft, a leading vendor of software development tools to the embedded computing industry, today announced a comprehensive partnering agreement to jointly develop, and for PrismTech to market, a new advanced, model-driven development tool for radio developers Spectra CX.

Caching technologies are becoming ubiquitous in a variety of application domains, such as: Distributed Caching Platforms, Cloud Computing, Software as a Service (SaaS), Web Servers, Financial Services, and a variety of other large-scale and data-intensive applications. This quick uptake has been fostered by the conceptual simplicity of the technology - the distributed caching of data objects for superior accessibility - together with its broad applicability, the cost reduction it enables and the reduced workload it creates for back-end servers and mainframes. However, this technology has yet to see broad uptake in distributed embedded real-time systems or in low-latency and throughput-sensitive applications - primarily due to the performance and scalability limitations of the hub-and-spoke architectural style commonly used in existing caching solutions. Based on the award winning OpenSplice DDS technology, OpenSplice Cache is the first caching technology featuring a fully distributed, multicast enabled, high availability architecture. It provides superior performance and scalability to traditional caching applications, but also delivers the advantages of caching to a far wider spectrum of applications, ranging from distributed embedded real-time systems, to business- and mission-critical systems requiring low-latency, extreme throughput, and massive scalability. http://www.prismtech.com/section-item.asp?id=893 Mon, 8 Dec 2008 17:46:05 +0000 PrismTech, an acknowledged leader in advanced software integration and infrastructure solutions, has launched OpenSpliceTube, the official YouTube Channel through which PrismTech will be delivering PodCasts, Tutorials, Technology Sneak-Peak, Announcements and News about OpenSplice DDS.
