Brings Power Architecture Experience to Standards Organization
SANTA BARBARA, CA—June 10, 2008—Green Hills Software,
Inc., the technology leader in device software optimization (DSO) and real-time
operating systems (RTOS), today announced its membership at the Sponsor
level in Power.org™,
the open organization that develops and promotes Power Architecture™ technology.
Green Hills Software is providing leadership and experience to help develop,
enable, and promote Power
Architecture technology, optimize interoperability, and accelerate
innovation. Green Hills Software’s experts are participating in
the Power.org technical subcommittees, including debugging, hypervisors,
operating systems, embedded platform requirements, virtual platforms,

Power Architecture Technology Leadership
Green Hills Software’s software development solution was the first
commercial offering for the Power Architecture (formerly known as PowerPC)
technology. Since 1993, Green Hills Software’s software development
solutions for Power Architecture-based processors have led the industry
in software performance, footprint, reliability, and customer satisfaction.
Green Hills Software’s INTEGRITY® real-time
operating system has been the market-leading, high reliability real-time
operating system for Power Architecture since 1997. Deployed in 2003,
Green Hills Software’s Padded Cel™ was the first commercial
embedded hypervisor targeting Power Architecture solutions. Green Hills
Software’s optimizing compilers for Power Architecture technology
are most often selected by semiconductor manufacturers for Embedded Microprocessor
Benchmark Consortium (EEMBC) benchmark certification.
Power Architecture Ecosystem Leadership
In addition to its innovations around Power Architecture technology,
Green Hills Software has led industry efforts to standardize Power
Architecture Application Binary Interfaces (ABI), assembly language
standards, and debug hardware connectivity standards to enhance interoperability
and software reusability for improved customer experience. Green Hills
Software works closely with all the Power Architecture semiconductor
vendors to help guide hardware directions that impact critical systems
software.
“Power.org has established itself as the most productive and effective
computer architecture consortium in the embedded systems industry,” said
CEO and founder Dan O’Dowd, Green Hills Software. “There
is no doubt that this unique collaboration across software and hardware
vendors will translate directly into improved products and technologies

“The Power Architecture technology platform, driven in part by
Power.org, is growing faster than ever and across a growing breadth of
markets and applications,” said Ray Bryant, chairman of the board,
Power.org. “We are pleased to have Green Hills Software’s
extensive expertise and market insights in Power.org and look forward
