Wind River (News - Alert), a provider embedded and mobile software, announced it has been recognized as the multicore market leader for the second consecutive year by VDC Research Group.


In addition to receiving recognition for multicore enablement, Wind River also won top honors in VDC's 2011 “Embedded Software Engineering Market Technologies & Statistics” report series in categories including Embedded/Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS), Android (News - Alert) & Linux in the Embedded Systems Market, and Virtualization for Mobile and Embedded Systems.

The 2011 “Multicore Components & Tools”report analyzes the global market for software solutions for device/system development incorporating multicore processors. Wind River led the market for multicore components and tools in 2010.

"The embedded market continues to evolve, with OEMs increasingly in need of new technologies and expertise in order to adapt to the mounting complexities and requirements of embedded devices," said Jared Weiner, analyst at VDC Research Group (News - Alert), in a statement.

“Wind River has been able to maintain its leadership position in this evolving market through its diverse mix of products, technologies, and services targeting a wide range of vertical markets,” Weiner added.

Wind River delivers a comprehensive software portfolio to the embedded market. This includes industry-leading embedded software operating systems, run-time technologies, development tools, virtual systems development, and an embedded test management solution. The company also delivers solutions specific to industries.

The Embedded/Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) market leadership award recognizes Wind River’s portfolio of products and services, led by its VxWorks RTOS. Wind River achieved more than 40 percent of total market revenue in 2010. This is the second consecutive year the company accomplished this award.

Wind River was recognized as the embedded Linux market leader for the third consecutive year for its Wind River Linux platform and related solutions. Wind River’s leadership boasts more than 30 percent of total market revenue in 2010.

Virtualization for Mobile and Embedded Systems award is given to Wind River as it garnered the highest share of the global market in 2010, more than 30 percent, for commercially available virtualization technologies that enable multiple operating systems to run simultaneously on a single or multicore processor.

"Wind River's market achievements reflect its 30-year history as a pioneer and leader in the embedded software space, and the superior benefits that our customers derive from our technology," said Jim Douglas, senior vice president of marketing at Wind River, in a statement.

In another recent development Wind River announced partnership with Clarion, a manufacturer of high-performance in-car entertainment systems, to develop Android-based in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) systems.
