OS Porting Solutions from SDC...

You'll know that adapting existing software to a new OS is a major challenge. It can be costly and stressful, both in terms of time and budget but also in terms of introducing bugs into once proven code. At SDC we provide a range of products to help developers streamline development processes and re-use their embedded software on one or more operating systems.

We are the UK distributor for MapuSoft Technologies(MT). Their products include OS PAL, OS Abstractor, and OS Changer, AdaMagic and WinDriver . In addition to this Mapusoft offers porting, integration, support, and training services to help developers easily migrate from legacy platforms to the next generation.
