How It works?
We address all aspects of middleware development for Embedded systems, from the development and integration of frameworks up to the integration of user interfaces. We are supporting our customers not just with middleware development but also with partial solutions, that could involve development of various sub components or support for the application developers.

os abstraction layers
Our engineers provide implementations of APIs for several operating systems such as VxWorks, Linux, QNX and various flavors of RTOS including a project structure and build systems that facilitate building projects for particular OS’s and hardware platforms.
Our solutions are designed to facilitate code portability being independent of a particular operating system, providing a shorter development and debug time by allowing the software to be platform independent.
communication protocols
Our team of engineers provide advanced connectivity middleware solutions that ensures communication over the well standardized transport layer required for a reliable data transfer over various peripheral interfaces. We implement or use various industry standards for data transfer and service based communication such as UDP, TCP/IP, SOME/IP, DDS, DICOM etc. depending on the systems requirements and application domain.
application optimization
In order to improve system performance and facilitate code portability, our team of software engineers perform various application optimizations such as runtime optimization, load balancing, memory footprint optimization, as well as custom architecture redesign such that the overall system becomes more scalable and can be easily adapted to new business logic needs.
framework development
We provide custom framework development solutions for real time embedded applications, by implementing the complete architecture and mechanisms for inter component communication, event handling, safety mechanisms etc. Our team makes use of best industry standards and practices for implementing scalable and performant interfaces that facilitate the integration of real time software components on an embedded platform.
Diagnostic Protocols
We implement diagnostics protocols depending on the application, by selecting the industry specific diagnostics protocols such as XCP, DTC or specific custom protocols for diagnosis. In order to ensure a high degree of flexibility our teams employs as well well known code generation tools for facilitate the fast implementation of diagnostic protocols given the specification in a standardized format that can be easily parsed by tools such as ARTOP, Protobufs etc.
SWC Configuration & integration
Our team performs integration of various real time embedded application in to embedded software frameworks using domain specific tools and practices such as various software stacks configurators and opensource frameworks. We ensure that the integrated components run according to their specific needs and the allocated budget for memory and CPU time, is fully optimized..
tracing libraries
In order to facilitate the development process and deployment of embedded real time applications our team of engineers develops and integrates tracing libraries that provide the means for tracing and debugging the application over various peripheral interfaces such as ethernet, serial, CAN etc. using well standardized traces viewers which run on a development pc or on a diagnostics system.
Software stacks configuration
Our team of engineers customises the software stack of an embedded system by integrating the required stacks for networking, wireless, video etc. and striping it off of the redundant components that are not needed in the application being developed, thus ensuring that the OS software stacks are fully customized and can deliver the maximum performance on a custom embedded platform.
Industries We serve
Having previously developed various embedded software and hardware services across numerous industries, our team of engineers is specialized in developing custom solutions that are of the highest industry standards, tailor made to the specification of each individual project.
