High-Speed Switched Serial Fabrics Improve System Design Handbook
Written by Rodger Hosking, Vice President and Co-founder of Pentek

VMEbus continues as the dominant bus structure for high-performance embedded systems. In an industry characterized by a steady succession of new device offerings with speed and density increases every few months, the VMEbus has retained its leadership position not simply because it was based on a sound electrical and mechanical architecture.

Indeed, the major reason for its longevity has been a series of performance and feature enhancements promoted and nurtured by a broad base of VMEbus vendors.

Model 4996 VxWorks BSP & Drivers

Model 4996 VxWorks BSP & Drivers provide software developers with a complete library of hardware initialization, control and application functions. Used in conjunction with Wind River's Tornado II software environment, Model 4996 speeds applications development by providing a high-level API to access all of the board's memory and communication resources and control of its I/O interfaces and VIM modules.

*

The VxWorks BSP is designed to reduce development time in the initial stages and any time new I/O hardware is added to the system. VIM module drivers, designed to control the hardware features of the I/O interface being used, are built with a consistent style and function-naming convention, thereby allowing immediate familiarity with new VIM hardware as it's added.

Verari Systems Software VSI/Pro for G4 PowerPC

The VSIPL (Vector, Signal and Image Processing Library) standard consists of definitions of over 500 scientific and engineering functions. It supports portable, high performance applications programming. The standard is based upon existing libraries that have evolved and matured over decades of computing.

*

These include functions for linear algebra, signal processing (FFTs, windowing, filtering and convolution routines), image processing, scalar functionality, and vector and matrix view functionalities (scalar, unary, binary and ternary operations).

The Verari Systems Software VSI/Pro is an implementation of VSIPL functions optimized specifically for the PowerPC and AltiVec architectures and is designed to be fully compliant with the emerging VSIPL standard.

As a commercial implementation, VSI/Pro is the immediate step between the VSIPL standard and your own specialized software application. The library is compatible with Wind River’s VxWorks real-time operating system and supports the ANSI C and C++ languages.
