C4ISR
As you build the next generation of C4ISR systems, there's no question that your customers' demands for performance, reliability, availability, and security will continue to increase. The challenge is how to keep your C4ISR platform up to date with fast-changing global systems and competitive threats.
What's Our Solution?
Wind River delivers complete, integrated solutions based on global standards, including Carrier Grade Linux 4.0, POSIX, IPv6, Common Criteria, SCA, LSB, DISR, Eclipse, and FIPS. Our industry-leading products tame the complexities of developing next-generation C4ISR platforms and control costs by bringing it all together in an integrated COTS solution.
Complete C4ISR Run-Time Platforms
Wind River Linux, Wind River Hypervisor, and Wind River VxWorks platforms are maximized for agility, integrated for high performance, scalable to small footprint requirements, and interoperable with global networking standards.
Wind River's VxWorks is the world's leading commercial real-time operating system (RTOS) and has served the needs of embedded systems designers for more than 25 years. VxWorks maintains this leadership because it is proven in use in more than 500 million deployed devices, from small sensors to global C4ISR systems.
Wind River Linux is the world's leading commercial embedded Linux platform. Wind River Linux brings together all the components companies need to develop, test, and support world-class products quickly and cost-effectively. From fully traceable pristine source code to preconfigured industry-specific profiles, to more than 500 tested and validated software packages, Wind River Linux takes the guesswork and the legwork out of embedded Linux development.
Wind River run-time platforms all use a common development environment based on the open architecture Eclipse standard, maximizing developer efficiency across a wide spectrum of operating systems and microprocessors.
Customization Services
Wind River has deep expertise and proven best practices for C4ISR programs. As part of our comprehensive solution, structured engineering services are specifically designed to help our customers meet strict program schedules and certification requirements.
Our team of technical experts is qualified to assist with a variety of architecting and engineering activities. Services include safety certification, device design, board support package (BSP) and driver optimization, software system and middleware integration, and legacy application and infrastructure migration.
Comprehensive Simulation, Debug, and Test Tools
Wind River Simics virtual platform allows you to simulate the entire target, even if it contains multiple boards with multiple hardware architectures running multiple real-time operating systems (RTOS). Simics virtual platforms are simulations of the entire target system and not just an individual processor, system-on-chip (SoC), or board. This gives all developers, testers, and integrators access to the entire target system so they can debug/test it as a whole instead of individual pieces of the system.
Wind River offers advanced JTAG tools for rapid hardware and software debugging. Wind River Framework for Automated Software Testing (FAST) automates the labor-intensive process of testing the kernel, BSP, middleware, and application integration. The framework can be tailored to specific performance and reliability requirements, significantly reducing development time. It includes an authoring tool so you can create your own automated tests—or we can build tests for you.
Wind River Test Management is a test execution optimization system for embedded devices. It enables unprecedented run-time visibility into devices while under test. The system provides the operational feedback that test teams and their management need to achieve the highest possible quality in the least amount of time.
Global Support
Wind River global support delivers products and services that can help you overcome technical obstacles and accelerate the deployment of your C4ISR system.
Wind River Online Support provides easy 24/7 access to product manuals, downloadable software, and other resources.
Wind River support has achieved Service Capability and Performance (SCP) certification, recognized as the gold standard for delivering world-class customer support.
Superior Partner Ecosystem
Wind River has joined forces with leading military hardware and software providers for complementary technologies such as COTS processor and I/O boards, graphics, Ada support, Java virtual machines, communications protocols, system modeling tools, control design tools, test tools, certification services, and platform simulation applications.
In conjunction with Wind River's offerings, our tool partners enable the entire C4ISR design flow to be easily integrated into the Wind River Workbench development environment, based on the open architecture Eclipse foundation.
We have also invested in pre-integration or validation with commercial software components to reduce the upfront development time and risk and can optimize the software stacks with partner products for your specific target hardware platforms.
