ARM and Synplicity are working together to ensure that mutual customers can successfully implement the ARM processor across a range of FPGA device families
Aplix's collaboration with ARM enables it to offer designers a solution that exploits the performance potential offered by the Jazelle technology.
Maximising the performance of the Java platform will vastly improve the experience of consumers using mobile devices for popular Java-based applications such as 2D and 3D games.
The integrated technologies will also create a platform capable of supporting the next generation of Java-based applications such as web services, location based services and video streaming.
"Consumers are demanding a wider array of rich content and applications from their mobile devices while service providers continue to deliver new applications that will bring value to their customers", said Ryu Koriyama, CEO of Aplix.
"Partnering with ARM will enable us to ease the transition for wireless device manufacturers seeking to meet the demands of consumers and service providers".
"We have witnessed explosive growth in the deployment of mobile Java applications".
"The continued evolution of mobile Java applications will require that developers have a firm foundation upon which to build their applications", said Mary Inglis, Director, OS and Alliances, ARM.
"Our work with Aplix has resulted in a fully integrated platform that will shorten the time to market of next-generation Java platforms".
