ADVISORY/ VaST Systems Technology’s Systems Engineering Environment Demonstrates Support for StarCore Architecture at Embedded Processor Forum
SUNNYVALE, Calif.– VaST Systems Technology Corporation today announced that they are demonstrating support for the StarCore® architecture in StarCore’s booth at Embedded Processor Forum (EPF) on May 17-20 in San Jose, California. A VaST virtual prototype of the StarCore SC2000 processor is planned for release in the third quarter of 2004.
The two companies announced in March their collaboration on a high-performance, accurate software model of the StarCore SC1200 processor to speed wireless and consumer electronics time to market (http://www.vastsystems.com/news_pr01.html). At EPF, VaST will be demonstrating how embedded software designers can use VaST’s CoMET System Engineering Environment to test and validate software such as RTOSs, drivers and applications, before actual silicon is available. For example, engineers can model power usage to measure battery drain and make tradeoffs in power, performance and cost – key factors in wireless system design – all before the hardware exists.
