RedHawk Embedded

W-RHLE-DEV-02 -- RedHawk Embedded 2-User Development Package, Unlimited Targets

RedHawk Embedded Linux is an industry standard, real-time version of the open source Linux operating system for Intel/AMD-based multiprocessors. RedHawk Embedded is designed to address a wide range for embedded applications such as telecommunications, manufacturing, process control, energy, aerospace, medical and automotive. RedHawk Embedded also provides the performance needed in time-critical embedded environments. RedHawk guarantees that a user-level application can respond to an external event in less than 15 microseconds on certified platforms. RedHawk Linux is compatible with the Red Hat Linux environment.

This package is licensed to a project team of up to two developers and includes the components listed below. A project team is a group working on one or more related application software components that will be deployed as a single system solution. RedHawk can be installed on up to two developer systems. RedHawk support may be limited to customer-identified team members.

This package allows RedHawk Embedded Linux to be deployed on an unlimited number of target systems while the customer is under RedHawk Embedded annual support.

RedHawk Architect is an easy-to-use GUI that lets developers choose the Linux and application modules that will be installed with the RedHawk kernel. RedHawk Architect allows the Linux filesystem to be customized and minimized for diskless applications using flash memories as small as 2 GB. RedHawk Architect creates and processes a configuration file based upon the user’s selections and performs an actual RPM package installation.

NightStar is a powerful, integrated tool set for developing and analyzing embedded applications. NightStar tools run with minimal intrusion, thus preserving application execution behavior and determinism. NightStar includes the NightView source-level debugger, NightTrace event analyzer, NightProbe data monitor and NightTune system and application tuner.

RedHawk Embedded Linux includes one year of customer support as follows:

RedHawk Linux support specifically covers the RedHawk real-time kernel, system calls, libraries and utilities developed by Concurrent. Support for non-RedHawk software, i.e. GNU software, standard Red Hat distribution libraries, commands and utilities not modified or developed by Concurrent, is available on a case-by-case basis. Concurrent can provide a support quotation upon request.

Prerequisites: Target system: certified x86-based, flash-booted, single-board computer (excludes network-booted and disk-booted platforms). Development system: x86-based PC running either RedHawk Linux or Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Notes: RedHawk Embedded is available on certified x86-based single-board computers. Support for non-certified SBCs is available upon request. Non-recurring engineering charges may apply. Platform certification may exclude some hardware features not generally supported by the Linux operating system. Platform support must be confirmed by Concurrent prior to quotation. RedHawk Embedded is available for a wide range of SBCs including those manufactured by GE Intelligent Platforms, Curtiss-Wright, Concurrent Technologies and Mercury Computer Systems.
