Wind River (NASDAQ:WIND) recently introduced ICE 2 hardware emulator. Wind River ICE 2 improves debugging efficiency during the device development lifecycle. ICE 2 simplifies uniprocessor and multicore system development challenges by enabling device software developers to visualize complex system interactions and rapidly track down the root cause to resolve problems with greater efficiency. ICE 2 also allows simple migration from one processor family to another via firmware upgrades, allowing developers to leverage existing investments. Wind River ICE 2 is immediately available as a stand-alone solution or packaged with Wind River Workbench for On-Chip Debugging and API.
