Real-time and Embedded CORBA

Why ORBexpress for Real-time and Embedded systems? Because ORBexpress is simply the easiest way for a complex system to communicate to a world full of differences.

Regardless of whether you are using a general purpose processor (GPP), digital signal processor (DSP) or Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), there is a version of ORBexpress that is tailored to meet your needs.

You will really appreciate the features of ORBexpress if you:

• Use an embedded operating system, or
• Want access to transport protocols beyond TCP/IP, or
• Use the native thread priorities in your operating system, or
• Want to control and bound the resources used by the ORB, or
• Want to control the Quality of Service parameters to optimize use of your transport, or
• Want to build a predictable distributed system.

ORBexpress is available for a wide variety of different real-time and embedded environments:

• ORBexpress RT for C++, C#, Ada or Java, for general purpose processors.
• ORBexpress for Android for Android-based systems.
• ORBexpress DSP for digital signal processors
• ORBexpress FPGA – a lightweight hardware implementation of CORBA targeted for FPGAs.

ORBexpress for Real-time and Embedded Systems

ORBexpress® is a uniquely powerful communications framework for creating high performance, high-reliability, distributed applications. ORBexpress is used for the development of real-time systems, where reliability and predictability are critical. Going beyond the Real-time CORBA Specification, ORBexpress provides developers the tools they need to ensure the success of their project.

Optimized for use in the real-time, embedded, and high-performance development environment, the ORBexpress product family combines performance with extreme reliability. ORBexpress is designed so that unused features are automatically omitted from the target application. ORBexpress provides developers with a small footprint ORB, that is fast, predictable and reliable.

ORBexpress was designed to accommodate hard real-time requirements including predictable time behavior, support for different levels of Quality of Service, and plug-in custom transports. ORBexpress also fully supports the new CORBA/e (CORBA for embedded) standard. Request your own copy of the OIS CORBA/e Whitepaper.
