Moscow, Russia, December 2000 - RTSoft Inc.,
a leading provider of software development services, has announced
that it will provide extended support for systems incorporating
the ARM7™ and ARM9™ microprocessors from ARM Limited. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Nearly half of existing cellular telephones
incorporate ARM™ processors, and the recent licensing
deal between ARM Limited and Motorola will accelerate the
movement of ARM architecture into other markets, including
PDAs, Web-pads, and smart phones," said Alexander Kaliadin,
business development manager at RTSoft. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
RTSoft provides custom software development,
including custom firmware, drivers, Board Support Packages
(BSPs), OS porting, protocol stacks and embedded applications,
for specific customer applications. RTSoft can provide support
based on a variety of real-time operating systems, including
VxWorks, OS9, and OSE, as well as proprietary RTOS support. |

According to Kaliadin, "A number of companies
are rushing to integrate Bluetooth™ into ARM™-based
designs. Many analysts believe that ARM™, along with
Intel's StrongARM™ and new XScale™ architecture,
will play the same role in the mobile market as Pentium processors
now play on the desktop. Because of the rapid expansion of
this market, and because the smallest design error can imperil
an entire project, we believe there will be strong demand
for the services provided by RTSoft Inc." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
"ARM™-based architectures provide the right
blend of raw horsepower and low power consumption for portable
devices," Kaliadin said. "ARM has an opportunity to be a major
player in the 3G mobile phone market, in which multimedia,
voice, and Internet data streams must be processed in the
same device." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"The goal of RTSoft is to simplify the transition
from one core or microprocessor family to a new one," added
Kaliadin. "This process always creates a tremendous challenge
for manufacturers, and we are committed to making the transition
as smooth as possible. We announce our support for a new architecture
only after we have enough hands-on experience to ensure that
our clients can rely on our services." |
