RT-Druid and ERIKA Enterprise RTOS for Nios II

Dear all,

Let me present Evidence Srl, a startup company of the Scuola Superiore S. Anna, a University in Pisa, Italy.

Evidence provides advanced RTOS solutions for single and multiprocessor systems on a chip based on Nios II.

In particular, using our ERIKA Enterprise RTOS, you can:

* design single processor real-time apllications;

* design and program a multi-processor real-time application as if you were on a single NIOS II processor;

* configure a multiprocessor NIOS II platform, and partition your software tasks among different processors without changing a lot the application source code;

* automatically setup multiprocessor shared communication mechanisms between different processors;

* speed-up the development cycle --> Every time you need to add a processor, you only need to reconfigure the placement info without changing the source code;

* ERIKA Enterprise also supports the RAW API of the LightWeight IP (LWIP) together with a multithread application;

Please visit our website at http://www.evidence.eu.com/nios2 (http://www.evidence.eu.com/nios2) to learn more about the ERIKA Enterprise RTOS and the RT-Druid design environment.

A free 30-day evaluation licenses is available to try ERIKA Enterprise on a 2 CPU system.

The business model is a per seat royalty-free license that does not depend on the number of CPUs of your design, does not depend on the number of products you develop, and does not depend on the number of items you produce. Discounts are available for early adopters (before the end of 2005).

Best Regards,

Paolo Gai
