Research areas
Scientific Software
- Development and research in the area of
network distributed measuring data acquisition and distributed data
processing systems together with parallel numeric processing with network
coupled computer clusters. With a compact and scaleable micro kernel
together with a high performance network protocol best suited for
distributed applications it's possible to support both hardware reduced
embedded computers and generic desktop computers. Additional software
running on the top of already existing operating systems merges the
embedded compuer world with a convinient desktop programming environment.
This approach unites a distributed operating system with a comfortable
programming environment.
