Accelerated Technology's Nucleus EDGE Embedded Development Environment Supports MIPS Architecture

Accelerated Technology, a Mentor Graphics division (Nasdaq:MENT),
today announced that its Eclipse-powered Nucleus(R) EDGE software
development environment is now available for the MIPS32(R) and
MIPS64(R) architectures from MIPS Technologies. With the Nucleus
software, developers using the 4K(R), 4KE(TM), 5K(R) and 24K(R)
core families for digital entertainment and multimedia applications
have a tightly integrated development environment in which to more
quickly and easily build products to better meet market demand.
"Our customers need to accelerate their time to market in order to
excel in the highly competitive digital consumer space," said Russ
Bell, vice president of marketing for MIPS Technologies.
"Leveraging the industry-leading MIPS architecture and the Nucleus
EDGE software environment allows designers to meet and exceed their
development objectives and deliver superior products." "This new
development environment consists of MIPS Technologies optimized
software, including SDE compiler and MIPSsim(TM) instruction set
simulator, integrated into the industry-standard Eclipse platform,"
said Robert Day, director of marketing, Accelerated Technology
Division, Mentor Graphics. "Combined with our Nucleus EDGE
software, developers of MIPS-Based SoCs now get the most complete
embedded tool chain, ranging from high-level UML design tools, down
to advanced debugging and profiling tools, all working seamlessly
together under the Eclipse framework." The Eclipse-based Nucleus
EDGE software includes an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI)
that provides tutorials and demos to guide users through the
development process. The user interface (UI) is also more
responsive, permitting users to interact with the GUI while the
Nucleus EDGE software is busy running background tasks such as
building the user application. This is particularly useful when
debugging large applications with multiple cores, as engineers
typically focus on different parts of their application,
concurrently. The Nucleus EDGE software contains an advanced
project manager, complete with an editor and builder that helps
users automate their build process. Developers can now set up one
or more build environments by specifying the compiler and build
options, giving total control over multiple projects and allowing
for quick and easy revisions of their embedded systems. This
advanced build system is fully integrated with the MIPS SDE
compiler, and allows other command line-based tools to be plugged
in as well. Adhering to the Eclipse platform debug paradigm, and
hence offering ultimate openness, the Nucleus debugger provides
developers with a number of debugging environments. For example,
using host-based debugging, software developers can experiment by
running an application on the host machine before the final
hardware is available or even decided upon. This allows the
software developer to start coding earlier in the development
cycle. Utilizing the MIPSsim instruction set simulator and MDI
based on-chip debugging via JTAG then allows users to run their
"real" optimized embedded code from the same environment. The
Nucleus debugger also provides all the basic execution and memory
control, plus advanced debugging features such as run-mode debug
and kernel awareness when using a real-time operating system
(RTOS). It also provides real-time trace, profiling, performance
analysis, and code coverage for doing sophisticated code analysis.
Additionally, the Nucleus debugger offers embedded developers true
multi-core debugging, allowing them to fully debug their complete
embedded system, whether small or complex. For connectivity to MIPS
Technologies' target markets, the Nucleus EDGE software supports
the Meta Debug Interface (MDI) protocol, which allows additional
support for the FS2 System Navigator and the MIPSsim Instruction
Set Simulator (ISS), as well as the Macraigor Systems OCD family of
EJTAG probes. Pricing and Availability Licenses for the complete
Nucleus EDGE development suite begin at U.S. $3,000 per seat. For
