"The work required of embedded developers is more complicated than ever, from increasingly complex processors to new challenges presented by multiple development teams and a more challenging security environment," said Rob Oshana, Senior Vice President of the Software and Digital Platforms group at ADI. "We have heard from customers time and again they want to be able to more quickly and easily manage their system design, allocate resources, quickly show proof-of-concept, and do it with data integrity at the edge, all of which inspired this expanded CodeFusion Studio System Planner and Data Provenance Software Development solution offerings."In recent years, embedded devices have exponentially increased processing speed, core count, functionality, and complexity – delivering reduced cost and space, but increasing the complexity of software development pipelines. Legacy developer tools often lack the flexibility and customization required to integrate into these pipelines and the established code bases central to effective modern system design. ADI's CodeFusion Studio System Planner solves many of these project creation and resource partitioning challenges on complex, heterogeneous devices.Using a permissibly licensed, open-source architecture, ADI's CodeFusion Studio System Planner enables flexible project creation across multiple cores and graphical resource allocation of memory and peripherals. The offering also includes config tools that are aware of the real-time operating system or firmware platform being used on a given core, exposing context-aware config settings for a peripheral or memory block assigned to a core. With added insight into system performance and accessible, open-source tools to improve resource allocation, developers will have greater ability to efficiently optimize their designs.Additionally, System Planner enables developers to generate the code they need via a plugin-based project creation system
