Brochure

AXIS is a full suite of integrated software development tools.
It is designed to simplify the process of creating DSP applications
based on multiprocessor platforms.
AXIS gives developers the tools they need
to be more productive, and largely frees
them from the complexities of the underly-
ing hardware architecture.
AXIS tools allow engineers to focus atten-
tion on the area where they are domain
experts—the application. After all, the
time and energy they spend dealing with
low-level platform details only slows the
development process.
AXIS fills a critical need, because
although traditional real-time operat-
ing system tool-chains do contain some
productivity elements (IDE for instance),
there is still a gap between these tools
and the application domain. This gap is
bridged by AXIS middleware from
GE Intelligent Platforms.
AXIS-Advanced Multiprocessor
Integrated Software
The AXIS software architecture consists of
three integrated elements:
Interprocessor Communications
Multiprocessor Productivity Tools
DSP Libraries
Although they are individual toolsets, they
are designed to work together as a single
environment. Together, they can cut the
time needed to map the application to the
system, run it, test performance, and then
remap until the desired result is achieved.
Declare Independence from your
Hardware and Operating System
In addition to simplifying application
development, AXIS creates a layer of
abstraction between the application and
the hardware and operating system. This
independence offers the added benefits
of portability and scalability.
