Mobile

Open source technologies including Android, LiMo, and Moblin have energized the entire mobile value chain. These platforms offer substantial functionality to jump-start product development. However, even these platforms require development, support, maintenance, intellectual property protection, and ongoing platform compliance. Mobile device and service providers need a trusted market leader that will deliver and stand behind a united platform that will make open source work for them.

How Wind River Can Help

• As the first Linux commercialization partner for the Open Handset Alliance (OHA), Wind River provides original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) with a productized Android platform and solution that ensure time-to-market and reduce development and test costs for smartphones and mobile Internet devices (MIDs).
• Wind River is the systems integrator of choice for the next-generation LiMo Foundation platform, giving us unique knowledge that we can use to help OEMs and operators assemble LiMo-specific reference platforms and products.
• Wind River is creating a commercial MID stack comprising the Linux kernel through applications that will be contributed to Moblin as open source. Wind River will also offer a commercial solution based on the stack, complete with pre-integrated third-party products, customization services, and support.

Whether you are looking to build your first device using one of these new open mobile platforms or extending initial efforts across a multi-SKU product line, Wind River offers the right solution, blending commercial products and experience-based services to help you get your device to market on time.

Networking

Millions of new mobile devices have the ability to consume network bandwidth like never seen before. The exponential increase in data and video traffic levels will stress even the most advanced network infrastructures.

The networking industry is going through a challenging yet very exciting growth period. As the number of connected devices grows, consumers expect and demand only the highest levels of performance. Operators are under increasing competitive pressure to deliver more for less. And equipment providers must build network elements that can scale and perform to meet the rapidly increasing traffic demands of the next-generation network.

How Wind River Can Help

Wind River understands this challenge. Over the past few years we've expanded our industry-leading run-time software to maximize the performance capabilities of multicore technologies. Developing, debugging, and performance testing network elements are significantly more difficult in multicore environments, but we've made major investments in our run-time technologies and tools to help you in this new world.

Our networking executives will be at Mobile World Congress and would like to meet with you to discuss how the optimization of multicore technologies in your products can be a key differentiator. Schedule a meeting with us today and let us know what topic is of most interest to you:

• Leveraging Carrier Grade Linux, VxWorks, and a hypervisor in a multicore environment
• Increasing application performance through packet processing techniques in run-time software
• Migrating from in-house legacy technologies to optimized commercial components and integrated systems

Whether you are upgrading an existing network element or building one for the next-generation network, Wind River has the right solution for even the most challenging project.
