Integration takes advantage of Ada
technology
RTI Data Distribution Service is a high-performance messaging and data-caching solution for the development and integration of applications that require low latency and high throughput.
Real-Time Innovations (RTI) has integrated RTI Data Distribution Service with a Gnat ProAda compiler from AdaCore Working closely with software engineers at Saab Systems, RTI has developed the first Ada bindings to support middleware compliant with the Data Distribution Service (DDS) for Real-Time Systems standard

Tools aid Linux development
RTI ScopeTools are now available for the popular MontaVista Linux operating system and the MontaVista DevRocket development environment.
For the first time, software developers can combine the messaging performance of RTI middleware, the portability and interoperability provided by the DDS standard, and the powerful development environment of AdaCore's Gnat Pro to build high-performance, standards-compliant distributed applications.
"RTI middleware with Ada integration is helping our developers build complex applications that require real-time data availability and response across large distributed systems", said Thomas Jungefeldt, Senior Systems Engineer, Saab Systems, Naval Systems Division.
"A major advantage of this approach is our ability to support and develop applications in a heterogeneous COTS-based environment requiring simple and straightforward integration of legacy code with newly developed systems".

Data distribution platform runs on Integrity RTOS
Real-Time Innovations and Green Hills Software have developed a standards-based data distribution platform for embedded applications demanding total reliability and absolute security.
"Adoption of the DDS standard is growing across a wide range of real-time distributed environments from desktop to embedded devices, particularly in defence and aerospace applications", commented Thomas Quinot, Middleware Specialist, AdaCore.
"The integration of Gnat Pro with RTI's industry-leading real-time middleware is a critical part of our ongoing commitment to make Ada a development language of choice in high-performance distributed applications, allowing users to benefit from the strengths of both working together".
"The demand for DDS support from the Ada community is continuing to grow", explained David Barnett, Vice President of Product Management at RTI.
"AdaCore's Gnat Pro is available on more platforms than any other Ada technology, and we are excited to be the first to allow distributed application developers to take advantage of Ada technology in conjunction with RTI Data Distribution Service and the DDS standard".
RTI Data Distribution Service is a high-performance messaging and data-caching solution for the development and integration of applications that require low latency, high throughput, high scalability, deterministic responses and minimal consumption of network, processor and memory resources.
RTI Data Distribution Service is an open-architecture platform that complies with the Object Management Group's (OMG's) DDS for Real-Time Systems standard.
The Gnat Pro development environment, available on more platforms than any other Ada toolset, provides a solution for organisations that need to create reliable, efficient and maintainable code.
