    Jaluna-1 is a real-time component suite designed for carrier-grade projects requiring high performance and high availability. It is based on Sun Microsystems' Chorus microkernel operating system (OS).

    Integrated within Jaluna-1 is the C5 Real-Time microkernel with modular scheduler, memory management, communication, synchronization, time services, and interrupt management. Based on FreeBSD 4.1, the RT-POSIX system layer incorporates high availability, hot-restart, error confinement support. Among the target processors are x86, PowerPC, and Sparc within CompactPCI-based architectures. Host development systems include Linux RedHat 7.3 and Solaris 8.

    Jaluna-1 is royalty-free. The Carrier Grade Edition is available on a per seat basis. The Developer Edition is a free download and is available as an open-source project on SourceForge.

    I earned a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and a Masters in Computer Science from Rutgers University. I still do a bit of programming using everything from C and C++ to Rust and Ada/SPARK. I do a bit of PHP programming for Drupal websites. I have posted a few Drupal modules.  

    I still get a hand on software and electronic hardware. Some of this can be found on our Kit Close-Up video series. You can also see me on many of our TechXchange Talk videos. I am interested in a range of projects from robotics to artificial intelligence.
