Press Releases

SYSGO, the leading European provider of real-time operating systems for safety-critical embedded applications, will participate in Embedded World 2024, taking place from April 9th to 11th in Nuremberg, Germany. SYSGO is going to present several innovations, comprising a Cobot robotics solution for the industrial market leveraging on PikeOS's ability to enable functionally safe and cyber-secure applications and can be found at booth 4-126.

Highest safety level for PikeOS; certification kit now available for space systems. SYSGO's real-time operating system and hypervisor PikeOS has achieved the highest level Category A (Cat. A) of the space safety standard ECSS-E-ST-40C for the first time. With this level, reached as part of a customer project, SYSGO proves that PikeOS is fundamentally suitable for all safety-critical applications in space.

SYSGO, a leading European provider of real-time operating systems for critical embedded applications, will discuss the evolving landscape of automotive software security at CES 2024, which takes place from January 9 to 12 in Las Vegas, Nevada, highlighting the capabilities of its PikeOS operating system.

SYSGO's embedded Linux distribution ELinOS is now available in the new version 7.1.2. Officially classified as a minor release, the Linux for embedded systems brings a major innovation: In a very simple wizard, the operating system can now be set up as "immutable". This means that the base system is unchangable and therefore much better protected against cyber attacks, because important system areas cannot be changed by unauthorized access. Additional applications and services run in a separated…

SYSGO and CoreAVI are pleased to announce that PikeOS, the real-time operating system with integrated hypervisor, is now available with CoreAVI’s VkCore® SC GPU acceleration driver support for NXP i.MX 8 Quad Max processors. Developers in the aerospace & defense sector benefit from an integrated solution platform for developing immersive human-machine interfaces (HMIs) and GPGPU-powered AI functionalities with certifiable safety. The solution set is aligned with the new Khronos Group Vulkan® SC™…

The European-funded AMPERE project successfully concluded on 30 June 2023, providing an innovative software framework that leverages high-performance computing (HPC) parallel programming models to cope with the performance requirements of complex cyber physical systems (CPS) in the automotive and rail domains, with a high potential for reducing software development and deployment costs by 30%.

Rapita Systems, a leading verification solutions supplier to the global avionics market, and SYSGO, a leading supplier of embedded software solutions for the world's most demanding safety and security applications, have published a whitepaper with guidance on how to efficiently meet A(M)C 20-193 objectives for multi-core software certified to DO-178C guidelines.

Version 1.1 of PikeOS for MPU, which is suitable for controllers, has been released. The real-time operating system now supports the Dahlia NG-Ultra system-on-a-chip (SoC) suitable for space applications and its ARM-R52 cores, as well as the Gnu Compiler Collection in version 11.3. Other new features include an improved debug information view and the ability to configure the size of the DDR memory. The latter is an advantage, as it is no longer necessary to adjust the Board Support Package (BSP)…

AMETEK Abaco Systems and SYSGO are now equipping an unmanned air systems (UAS) developer with their joint certifiable mission computer hardware and software components. It comprises the hardware, consisting of Abaco’s SBC314C flight safety certifiable single board computer, and SYSGO’s real-time operating system and hypervisor PikeOS.

SYSGO's real-time operating system and hypervisor PikeOS has again reached the highest levels of rail and industrial safety standards. PikeOS version 5.1.3 is now officially certified by TÜV Süd Rail at the levels SIL 4 of EN 50128 and EN 50657 (rail) and the highest level SIL 3 of IEC 61508 (industrial) for the ARMv8 architecture. The certifications include hardware virtualization (HwVirt), which enables hypervisor functionality and allows guest operating systems such as Linux and Android to…

• SYSGO announces project to bring mixed-criticality edge computing solution based on Intel x6000FE series Atom processors to a variety of industrial end user applications.

• Solution enables end users to combine real-time safety critical workloads with more advanced applications on a single platform by leveraging Intel’s chip-integrated functional safety features.

The security-focused programming language Rust is now available for the real-time operating system and hypervisor PikeOS. For the use of applications on Rust basis no guest operating system and/or no interface is necessary such as POSIX: Applications can run directly on a native PikeOS instance, making them both resource-efficient to operate and easier to certify against industry-specific safety and security standards. Rust was implemented in such a way that essential PikeOS features can be…

The modeling software Simulink is now integrated with the real-time operating system and hypervisor PikeOS. Simulink is a Matlab extension and is suitable for quickly creating technical-physical and financial mathematical models. These can then be conveniently translated into programming language via Matlab's Embedded Coder and then executed on PikeOS. By combining the two technologies, embedded software developers have the ability to design applications such as complex circuits, control…

SYSGO, the leading embedded software solutions vendor of secure operating systems, has announced that Thales Alenia Space will deploy the real-time operating system (RTOS) PikeOS for MPU in its new telecom product line called SPACE INSPIRE (SPI).

With digitalization, a multitude of new technologies will be introduced to the railway system. These will place high demands on IT platforms in regards to reliability, scalability, performance and strict safety require-ments. As part of the Digitale Schiene Deutschland sector initiative, DB Netz AG, Thales, SYSGO, Fraunhofer IESE, University of Rostock and ESE, have taken a first important step in this direction and have developed the basic architecture for a "SIL 4 Cloud".
