22 May 09

Mistral Solutions, a leading provider of complete technology solutions and professional services in the embedded space, has entered into a partnership with Real-Time Innovations (RTI), providers of high-performance middleware solutions for the development and integration of distributed real-time applications.

As the sole distributor of RTI products in India, Mistral will cater to the real-time middleware requirements of a broad range of industries including military and aerospace, intelligence, simulation, industrial control, transportation, finance, medical and communications.

Real time system standard

The Mistral-RTI partnership has resulted in the availability of the first DO-178B safety-certifiable messaging middleware based on the Object Management Group (OMG) data distribution service for Real-Time Systems (DDS) standard in the Indian IT industry.

The RTI data distribution service, safety critical edition provides a high-performance message bus for integrating distributed components of avionics systems, such as control systems, sensors, actuators and displays, and serves as the ideal solution for communication within and between avionics systems and Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) ground-control stations. Its integrated approach significantly reduces long-term software maintenance costs by allowing individual subsystems to be added or upgraded without impacting existing software.

Safety-Critical Edition supports the standard DDS interoperability protocol and the Real-Time Publish-Subscribe Protocol (RTPS) enabling the seamless communication of applications developed using Safety-Critical Edition with other systems developed using RTPS-compliant DDS middleware.

Providing the core features that safety-critical systems need to perform high-performance data communication, the safety-critical edition simplifies the task of meeting stringent safety and security certification requirements such as RTCA/DO-178B and common criteria for IT security ISO/IEC 15408.
