The latest release of Mentor Graphics’ Embedded Nucleus real-time operating system (RTOS) targets high-performance, next-generation applications for connected embedded devices. The process model for ARM Cortex-M based cores is expanded to provide application Dynamic Linking and Loading (DLL) capabilities for devices.
Internet of Things (IoT) endpoints based on Cortex-M cores with the Nucleus RTOS and process model technology can now be reconfigured, updated and/or provisioned using cloud-based services to utilise remote software services. This allows embedded developers to dynamically modify application software during system operation, keeping the target up to date, even in mission-critical environments. The comprehensive, ready-to-use Nucleus RTOS solution provides the IoT middleware, scalable footprint, power management and security required for today’s IoT connected devices.
The lightweight Nucleus process model takes advantage of the memory protection unit (MPU) of Cortex-M0+, Cortex-M3 and Cortex-M4 cores to create protected regions in memory that can be used for dynamic application loading and unloading at system startup or afterward during run time. This release also includes Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) with DTLS security support, and support for Texas Instruments’ WiLink 8 module solution for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth wireless combo connectivity.
