Wave7 Optics Selects Aonix PERC VM for the Trident7™ Optical Access Platform
Wave7 Optics Selects Aonix PERC VM for the Trident7™ Optical Access Platform
Aonix | 17 May 2006
Aonix®, the provider of the PERC® technologies for embedded Java™ developers, announced that Wave7 Optics Inc. has selected the Aonix PERC Ultra® virtual machine (VM) for their Trident7™ Optical Access Platform. Wave7, a leading supplier of fiber-to-the-home and -premises (FTTH/FTTP) broadband network equipment for residential and business services, chose to develop software based on Standard Edition Java™ (J2SE) for its portability, scalability, and productivity. The PERC Ultra VM provided predictable and reliable performance not possible with traditional Java™ solutions.
The Trident7 is the first Optical Line Terminal (OLT) with universal support for the leading FTTH and FTTP broadband signal distribution standards. The high level of integration supported in this product’s standards-compliant feature set significantly reduces the costs and expands the breadth of services that broadband service providers can economically deliver to home and business premises. Wave7 Optics’ decision to use PERC Ultra in the Trident7’s management module results in a significant reduction in operational expense.
“Wave7 wanted to leverage the Java language’s benefits of scalability and capacity to optimize the Trident7 OLT chassis,” noted Al Villarica, Chief Software Architect, Wave7Optics. “We chose the PERC Ultra virtual machine for its maturity, reliability, and support for Standard Edition Java.”
“As the complexity of embedded applications continues to rapidly escalate, many embedded Java developers are looking for capabilities beyond the capacity of the Java Micro Edition,” said Dave Wood, Aonix Director of Marketing. “Increasingly, developers are turning to the broader functionality and much greater responsiveness and predictability offered by PERC Ultra technology, which supports off-the-shelf J2SE componentware along with real-time garbage collection.”
First introduced nine years ago, PERC Ultra is the most widely used real-time virtual machine available for Java™ developers, with fielded installations in telecommunications, telematics, avionics, deep space exploration, and office automation applications. PERC supports most major real-time operating systems and a variety of target processors including PowerPC, XScale, ARM, and Intel x86 architectures.
PERC is a clean-room virtual machine expressly created for demanding embedded and real-time systems requiring J2SE™ support. PERC delivers the ease and efficiency of Java™ Standard Edition support without sacrificing integrity, performance, or real-time behavior. It offers AOT and JIT compilation, remote debug support, deterministic garbage collection, standard graphics and extended commercial RTOS support.
PERC Ultra is the ideal solution for embedded applications of high complexity, thanks to PERC Ultra’s predictable performance and its extensive support of off-the-shelf J2SE libraries and components. Its sister product, PERC Pico, meets the needs of resource-constrained hard real-time applications, featuring performance and footprint characteristics comparable to C. PERC Pico is smaller and faster than any other real-time virtual machine, yet it preserves key virtues of Java™ such as portability, reliability, and scalability.
PERC Ultra and PERC Pico are interoperable within a single application. For the first time, it is now possible for Java developers to create complete complex applications from infrastructure to the device level, without resorting to the use of other languages with less portability and robust memory use for specialized components.
Shipping and Availability
PERC Ultra is available for Linux, Windows, and Solaris hosts and supports a wide variety of processor architectures and real-time operating systems. PERC development tools are available at no charge in combination with a maintenance contract. Target execution and deployment license pricing is based on projected volume.
