How to Jumpstart Embedded Projects Using an Application Development Framework

Join QNX Software Systems and Tridium for a one-hour webinar at 2pm EST on June 28, 2005

Abstract

Increasingly, manufacturers of embedded devices are experiencing constant pressure to shorten the time-to-market, and at the same time minimize costs and lower the development risks. Meanwhile, development teams must focus on product differentiation at the application level and can no longer afford to develop and maintain complex system-infrastructure software.

QNX Software Systems and Tridium have teamed up to address these requirements. QNX is a leading provider of realtime operating systems and development tools, and Tridium a leader in software for embedded control applications. Together, QNX and Tridium offer a reliable and scalable OS/Software framework solution. By leveraging this solution, developers can work from an existing software framework that integrates smoothly into a realtime operating system, thus gaining the ability to go to market faster and increase their reliability.

This session will be useful for those embedded developers who want to build control into their embedded devices. The webinar will address the following challenges:

• Footprint - managing platform size for typical embedded product.
• Extensible Design - extending platform capabilities to fit unique and specific requirements
• Open API's - allowing access to all inter-module functionality and easy integration with external applications.
• Web Services - building in functionality from the ground up, not as an afterthought.
• Tools - reducing development time and cost through tools that quickly and easily build applications that address the entire device - to - enterprise stack.
