All-in-one Development Tool Enables Software Design Before Silicon
CAMBRIDGE, England, February 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ARM
(LSE:ARM); (NASDAQ:ARMHY) today announced at Mobile World Congress,
Barcelona, Spain, the launch of the RealView(R) Development Suite
3.1 Professional tools that brings together four key technologies
and supports the latest ARM(R) technology-based processors that
power the mobile world. RealView Development Suite 3.1 Professional
is designed to support the latest high-performance ARM processors,
such as the Cortex(TM)-A8 processor, and includes vectorizing
compilation for the NEON(TM) media processing engine which can
increase the performance of multimedia applications by more than
200 percent from standard C code. RealView Development Suite 3.1
Professional combines four major RealView technologies: the
industry-leading RealView Development Suite; the innovative
RealView Profiler; the ultra-fast Real-Time System Models; and
state-of-the-art NEON vectorizing compiler technology. RealView
Development Suite 3.1 Professional also provides full integration
with the RealView ESL tools enabling developers to use a single set
of tools from architectural exploration, through system-on-chip
design, system bring-up, and the deployment of hardware and virtual
platforms. The inclusion of fast Real time System models enables
developers to create complete software systems before silicon is
available accelerating the mobile handset design cycle by up to six
months. "With intense competition in the mobile space, OEMs and
silicon providers are looking for software tools that reduce
time-to-market. RealView Development Suite 3.1 Professional enables
ARM Partners to take full advantage of ARM processor technology and
allows software development and tuning to start far in advance of
silicon availability," said John Cornish, VP marketing, System
Design Division, ARM. "The RealView Development Suite 3.1
Professional tools provide a powerful head start in optimizing
mobile system designs." "Using ARM RealView Development Suite
Professional has made it possible for On2 to adapt our market
leading video software codecs to NEON technology without needing
access to hardware from silicon vendors," said Mika Hakala, general
manager - Embedded Solutions, On2 Technologies. "With this
approach, we are able to provide optimized solutions in the same
time frame as silicon vendors are providing hardware platforms."
"ARM RealView Development Suite Professional with its built-in
vectorizing compiler makes it possible for our OMAP(TM) 3 platform
customers and third-party developers to take full advantage of the
powerful Cortex-A8 processor and the NEON media processing engine,"
said Avner Goren, worldwide director, strategic marketing Texas
Instruments. "OMAP 3 application processors deliver the most
compelling, multimedia-rich applications that help handset
manufacturers differentiate themselves in the market while
attracting users to next-generation devices and services." "Symbian
looks forward to using key tools in the RealView Development Suite
3.1 Professional, that will enable Symbian OS to take full
advantage of next-generation ARM processors," said Mike
Whittingham, VP Ecosystem Development, Symbian. "We are
continuously collaborating with ARM to deliver the latest
technology and compelling development experiences to the Symbian
ecosystem worldwide." Optimized performance for mobile applications
RealView Development Suite 3.1 Professional tools include a
Real-Time System Model of the Cortex-A8 processor that incorporates
the NEON advanced SIMD unit. The performance of this ultra-fast
model is equivalent to silicon running at 200MHz or more, on a
typical host PC, which makes it the ideal tool for developing
mobile applications ahead of silicon availability. Together with
the cycle timings delivered by the RealView Profiler, this makes it
possible for software developers to obtain a thorough understanding
of performance bottlenecks and optimize their application months
before target hardware is complete. The integration of the RealView
Profiler enables non-intrusive analysis of code, resulting in a
highly-optimized system. Using the RealView Profiler on existing
applications has enabled software developers to improve performance
by 30 percent and at the same time reduce ROM size by 30 percent in
a matter of hours. The RealView Profiler also enables software
developers to analyse code coverage in order to achieve higher
software quality and reliability. The state-of-the-art NEON
vectorizing compiler enables software developers to take advantage
of the NEON advanced SIMD media processing extensions using
standard ISO C and standard ISO C++ code. This can improve the
performance of individual kernels by up to 400 percent and complete
media applications by more than 200 percent. Designing software for
future handsets today RealView Development Suite 3.1 Professional
provides mobile developers with a convenient all-in-one solution,
significantly reducing time-to-market. It enables software design
for ARM processor-based complex SoCs, and features platform OS and
RTOS support, simulation, debug and device awareness, including the
ARM926EJ-STM, ARM1136JF-STM, ARM1176JZF-STM processors, as well as
the high-performance Cortex-A8 processor. Availability The RealView
Development Suite 3.1 Professional tools will be available at the
end of February 2008. Ordering information is available at
