IDE Goes Multicore

Aug. 4, 2005

In just one package, the latest Code Composer Studio (CCStudio) from Texas Instruments tackles all TI platforms, including multicore systems like OMAP. CCStudio adds a number of features like the CodeWright editor, Component Manager (to handle updates including DSP/BIOS enhancements), and tuning and compiler tools that span all platforms. The debugger's quick disconnect/reconnect mode speeds development when connections are transient. The debugger also supports Rewind Debugging when tracing, so developers can step backward and forward. The Platinum Edition costs $3600. A free 120-day evaluation version is available so designers have plenty of time to evaluate CCStudio or use it within semester college courses.

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.
