The OMTP Product Profile process enables network operators and device manufacturers to compare and contrast conformance levels across the whole value chain.

VirtualLogix’s beta phase submission of the product profile statement, available at the OMTP Product Profile portal at http://www.omtp.org/statements.html, declares its level of conformance to the Trusted Environment recommendation. Real-Time Virtualization provides VirtualLogix customers with a reliable and consistent user experience across the mobile phone development process by complying with the OMTP Trusted Environment recommendation, available at http://www.omtp.org/approved.html.

Security is an increasingly important issue as more companies adopt open operating systems in their mobile devices. Wireless carriers and network operators work with manufacturers, semiconductor vendors, operating system providers and software companies to deliver a secure, intuitive and manageable user experience on devices running operating systems such as Linux, Windows or Symbian. As an Advisor level participant to OMTP, VirtualLogix works with market leading companies to deliver real-time virtualization technology that offers a secure way to architect solutions for mobile devices, based on the highest level of protection and standards.

“VirtualLogix’s real-time virtualization technology supports the OMTP mission to create an open ecosystem for advanced mobile platforms,” said Tim Raby, managing director, OMTP. “Now more than ever, security is a critical consideration for device manufacturers. With VirtualLogix’s product profile contribution, mobile device developers will have better tools to take advantage of the features of open operating systems, such as Linux, without compromising security.”

“VirtualLogix continues to work with leading industry organizations, such as the OMTP. Being the first company to make a product profile statement during the beta phase of the process underscores our commitment to deliver products that help our customers expand their competitive leadership and lower their overall costs,” said Michel Gien, executive vice president of corporate strategy, VirtualLogix. “The guidelines and recommendations provided by OMTP ensure that innovative software developments, such as real-time virtualization, can be seamlessly implemented to provide a security architecture with the best end user experience.”

VirtualLogix provides concurrent support for rich operating systems, such as Linux and proprietary or commercial real-time operating systems (RTOS) to enable a flexible architecture for embedded products. With VirtualLogix, companies successfully evolve with the changing market, because virtualization software yields lower bill of materials and development costs, preservation of intellectual property, and enhanced reliability, fault tolerance and security.
