为智能边缘提供更快、更好、更安全的软件

The demand for system-level simulation is growing exponentially as more devices are beingdeployed at the edge. Overall complexity is introduced by collaboration among varioussystem integrators, hardware types, and software supply chains. Navigating these challengesdemands a more cohesive approach when selecting vendors for your next big project, and itrequires use of open source technologies to avoid vendor lock-in. With the Intel Simics publicrelease as a solid starting point, users can stand up their suite of requirements before hard-ware is available or even decided upon. Moving to the next stage in the product lifecycle, thecommercial advantage from Wind River system simulation can augment the overall develop-ment lifecycle experience, reduce costs, and improve time-to-market.IntelSimicsSimulator and Virtual PlatformThe Intel Simics simulator provides the technology to build fast, functional virtual platforms.The base product contains the simulator core, user interface, framework components, anddocumentation. It also includes the command-line interface, debugging, inspection, tracing,target control, and checkpointing features. The simulator core includes the Intel Simics simula-tor API, multi-threaded scheduler, and configuration management. The release includes theDevice Modeling Language (DML) compiler and example models:•High-performance simulation:One of the original core goals of the Intel Simics simulatorwas to run target system code quickly, using a functional level of abstraction with simpli-fied timing.•Specific system models:A key purpose of the Intel Simics simulator is to provide virtualplatforms for specific hardware systems, with complete isolation between host andtarget.•Flexible and dynamic framework:The Intel Simics simulation framework is fundamen-tally dynamic. It is possible to create objects in the simulation and load new model typesinto the simulator at any time.Wind River’s Comprehensive Portfolio ofOperating Environments and Related ToolsWind River has optimized built-in support for Intel Simics, ensuring seamless integrationwith processes and workflows when using simulation across the portfolio.
