PolyCore Software has introduced Poly-Mapper, an Eclipse GUI-based communications topology mapping tool for use with multicore processors. PolyCore president and chief executive officer Sven Brehmer said developers can use the tool to partition and distribute applications across multiple cores.
“Multicore and distributed system developers are challenged by the need to synchronize, manage, and coordinate data flowing between multiprocessors or boards,” Brehmer noted. “Poly-Mapper allows developers to configure, build, and deploy complex multicore communications networks within their design.”
