Wilsonville, OR —With the growth of internet of things (IoT) and other smart devices, it is becoming increas- ingly complex and expensive for manufacturers to develop embedded distributions and applications for these devices based on the Linux® operating system. Siemens PLM Software has


launched its new enterprise Mentor® Embedded Linux® (MEL) solution that provides electronics manufac- turers secure, scalable and config- urable distributions for industrial, medical, aerospace, and defense applications. This new MEL technology is a


configurable distribution that pro- vides a robust operating system plat-

form for embedded systems develop- ment and is a result of the continued integration of the recently acquired embedded systems design capabili- ties from Mentor Graphics. The solu- tion is based on Debian, a broadly utilized, enterprise-class, open- source Linux operating system. The new Siemens enterprise


technology provides the stability, full features, and ease-of-use benefits of an enterprise solution, and the per- formance, customizability and foot- print of an embedded operating sys- tem. An internal team of embedded Linux experts originally developed this robust solution for use on critical Siemens automation equipment. Now commercially available, embed- ded developers can utilize this proven solution and mitigate the costs and risks of moving to Linux. The large number of pre-built


and fully-tested binary packages integrated in the Siemens enterprise MEL solution provide all of the gen- eral features and parameters in the software platform so a large number of users can install it and use it with ease. This can make standard imple- mentation across organizations much easier and more efficient. The Siemens binary MEL solu-


tion also includes a stable kernel and a robust toolchain — both with broad community support. This community support, combined with the commer- cial support and development power of Siemens, allows for increased development productivity and agility. Embedded developers can stay


up to date with available security patches and product updates, ena - bling enterprise-class standardiza- tion and maintenance. The new Linux solution enables support for secure field updates, and application isolation. This solution is also multicore-


enabled to consolidate multiple het- erogeneous runtime environments using today’s most advanced processor architectures, leveraging the Mentor Embedded Multicore Framework. This helps enable embedded develop- ers to quickly build systems that inte- grate Siemens binary Linux, and the Nucleus® real-time operating system (RTOS) on complex system-on-chip (SoC) processors. The enterprise-class MEL is


cloud-enabled, supporting industry- standard cloud and IoT technologies such as XMPP, MQTT, AMQP, CoAP, and RESTful API support. Development and analysis tools are included for configuration and opti- mization of the operating system so customers can analyze the state and operation of the embedded platform. The industry-proven Sourcery™


analyzer technology can generate time-series data for OS/platform diag- nostics and device profiling. In addi- tion, Siemens’ embedded team of experts can provide support, training, and professional services, from basic support and updates/upgrades to criti- cal security defects patches, platform


extensions and customized training. Contact: Mentor — A Siemens Business, 8005 S.W. Boeckman
