Wind River and ACCESS Extend Partnership into Linux-based Mobile Handset Market

Companies combine market-leading technologies

Wind River and ACCESS are extending their partnership into the Linux mobile handset market with a pre-integrated software development solution for mobile handset OEMs and cellular carriers. The solution will combine Wind River's Platform for Consumer Devices, Linux Edition with the ACCESS Linux Platform, delivering a completely integrated, open and flexible Linux-based platform tailored specifically for mobile devices. The Wind River Workbench development suite and ACCESS Linux Platform Product Development Kit, both available with this solution, are based on the Eclipse framework. OEMs and carriers will have the option of coupling a leading commercial-grade Linux distribution with a leading commercial handset software stack to more efficiently develop and differentiate devices, including LiMo-compliant handsets. The new mobile Linux platform is expected to be available during the second quarter of 2008 and has been initially proven on the Texas Instruments' OMAP2430 high-performance application processor and Marvell's PXA30x and PXA31x application processor chipsets. Additionally, the two companies announced that Wind River will join the ACCESS Connect Ecosystem partner program.
