Products
[edit | edit source]The company's main products were:
- MATRIXx, introduced in 1983,[8] a control engineering (computer aided control system design or CACSD) tool with components including XMath (an extended MATLAB-like language) and SystemBuilder for graphical editing of block diagrams.[9] After the merger with Wind River the product was licensed to MathWorks, but after an anti-trust action,[10][11] it was sold to National Instruments. In 2018, National Instruments placed MATRIXx into a five-year end-of-life phase, with no further support beyond 30 June 2023.[12]
- pSOS, a real-time operating system for the Motorola 68000 microprocessor family acquired from Software Components Group (SCG) for US$20 million[2] in 1991.
- FlexOS, a continuation of Digital Research's Concurrent DOS 286 and Concurrent DOS 68K, a modular multiuser multitasking real-time operating system (RTOS) for Motorola 68000 as well as for Intel 186, 286 and 386 microprocessors designed for computer-integrated manufacturing, laboratory, retail and financial markets; acquired from Novell for US$3 million in July 1994.[13] The deal comprised a direct payment of half this sum, and shares representing 2% of the company.
