| SCIOPTA Simulator Released |
Today SCIOPTA Systems AG is announcing the immediate availability of the SCIOPTA Simulator on Windows® PC Workstations
SCIOPTA WIN32 Kernel Simulator is an environment on a PC workstation running Microsoft® Windows® WIN32 for simulating a SCIOPTA kernel and SCIOPTA applications.
SCIOPTA WIN32 Kernel Simulator is royalty free and supports actually the Microsoft® Visual C++ Development Environments. |

| SCIOPTA Simulator Scheduling |
Each SCIOPTA process is implemented as a Windows Thread.
The SCIOPTA scheduler is located inside an own Windows Thread. This Thread has a higher priority than all other SCIOPTA process threads to guarantee the same scheduling behaviour of the SCIOPTA Simulator as a SCIOPTA in a real target system. |
| SCIOPTA Simulator Interrupt Processes |
SCIOPTA interrupt processes are also implemented as Windows Threads.
Any blocking windows functions
(e.g. ReadConsoleInput) can be used as simulated interrupt source. |
| SCIOPTA WIN32 Kernel Simulator Development Environment |
In order to design, develop, debug and run a SCIOPTA Kernel Simulator application you need a Microsoft® Visual C++ Development Environment.
The SCIOPTA Kernel Simulator product is tested with the following two Microsoft® Visual C++ Development Environments:
- Microsoft Visual C++ Version 6.0
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Version 8.0
For both environments getting started example are included.
Other Microsoft® C/C++ environment might work but are not tested. |

| About SCIOPTA |
SCIOPTA Systems develops, sells, supports and maintains systems software for safety-critical embedded applications.
This includes real-time operating systems, network software, file systems, software for interface bus systems, board support packages and other system software.
SCIOPTA is a message based real-time operating system with many built-in safety functions and is therefore very well suited for software forming part of safety-related systems. SCIOPTA is in the process of certification by TÜV to IEC61508 at Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3).
But SCIOPTA is more than just an RTOS. It is a new and modern approach to design embedded systems. The direct message passing method allows easy and time-saving design of robust and secure systems. Applications based on the SCIOPTA Method can cover small static SoC designs to large dynamic distributed systems. |
