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.
