About the Platform:
The Virtual Platform is a soft “emulator” of the ARM RealView
Versatile Platform Baseboard for ARM926-EJS provided for educational purposes
only. It includes a virtualized Ethernet Controller, UARTs, keyboard and mouse
interfaces, and a frame-buffer console that allows the user to interact with
the platform, just like you would with a real hardware board. Besides all the
tools required to operate the virtual platform, the packages come with a
complete Linux software stack, including kernel and file-system. A comprehensive
user’s guide introduces the usage of virtual platforms for embedded software
development.
The user will learn to debug and analyze embedded software along with the
underlying hardware platform. The self-study tutorial style user’s guide
introduces new debugging techniques, enabled by the unique control and
visibility provided by virtual platforms. Even a Linux beginner will gain
a lot of insight into the operation of a complex operating system such as
Linux. Furthermore, the user will learn how to create custom debug and
analysis solutions based on a flexible scripting framework.
The virtual platform also enables you to run Android, interface with GPS
and evaluate power consumption! We invite you to explore all aspects of a
virtual platform and experiment with the software stack.
Software as a Service
The virtual platform will run as a Software as a Service. No download or
installation needed. After registering, you will receive an e-mail with a
