 | | Working on the principle of using a single, basic design for multiple applications, Xilinx aims to combine an advanced programmable-logic structure with embedded processors, real-time operating systems, DSP tools, and EDA software to create a platform that could be the cornerstone of any digital system. |
 | | "A Platform FPGA based on the Virtex-II architecture has the ability to embed hard cores together with software cores to provide the basic building block for what could be a system," said Wim Roelandts, president and chief executive of Xilinx, San Jose. |
 | | Collaboration with Wind River Systems Inc. of Alameda, Calif., is expected to yield a convergence of products and technologies, including integration of FPGA debugging tools with Wind River's Tornado embedded development tools, and hardware/software co-design, among others. |
