July 26, 2006, Mobile, AL – Today MapuSoft Technologies (MT) announced that The Boeing Company, acting as the Lead Systems Integrator (LSI) for the U.S. Army's Future Combat Systems (FCS) program, has selected MapuSoft's OS Abstractor solution for integration in the current build of their System of Systems Common Operating Environment (SoSCOE) architecture. MapuSoft's OS Abstractor will enable SoSCOE to inter-operate across multiple operating systems and allow SoSCOE users to use an industry standard POSIX Application-Programming Interface (API) for software development.

MapuSoft’s OS Abstractor with POSIX product was chosen because of OS Abstractor’s resident features, including its inherent flexibility, plus MapuSoft’s expertise in the area of memory and thread management for leverage in developing additional OS Abstraction capability enhancements.

“MapuSoft's OS Abstractor provides many OS back ends which will be a great benefit to SoSCOE, which runs in a variety of environments”, said Al Williams, SoSCOE's Chief Architect. Read more >>>

MapuSoft Release 3.4 is Now Available with Safety Critical Features

Task-Pooling
Creating a task or thread at run-time requires considerable system overhead and memory resources and includes the possibility of failure. Task-Pooling enhances the performance and reliability of the application by allowing applications to create OS Abstractor tasks during initialization and by providing the ability to re-use the task envelope again and again.

Dynamic Application Configuration and Restart
All of the OS Abstractor resources, such as tasks, queues, etc., can now be created from a specific memory pool belonging to each individual application. This provides the ability for applications to shut down and re-start without exiting in case of failure.
