Phoenix CoreArchitect 2

Advanced visual development environment
for Core System Software

Phoenix CoreArchitect™ 2 is an advanced firmware development environment for OEMs and ODMs who are implementing next-generation Core System Software (CSS) for PCs and connected digital devices. It leverages the powerful graphical interface of Microsoft Visual Studio 2005™ so device engineers can create Core System Software for entirely new categories of connected devices for the networked home and the mobile enterprise.

Now companies can use the Phoenix-customized GUI to develop and build more secure, reliable devices based on Core System Software. And they can take those products to market faster with more inherent value.

As the PC industry incorporates new "trusted computing" technologies into standard x86 platforms, the firmware development environment Phoenix CoreArchitect 2 allows device designers to integrate these security innovations quickly and seamlessly while leveraging the built-in device authentication capabilities of Phoenix SecureCore.

In addition, new server platforms incorporating grid, blade and cluster architectures have become mainstream. Now Phoenix CoreArchitect 2 provides a powerful mechanism for integrating network standards such as XML, HTML and TCPIP at the core of the machine.

Phoenix has built CoreArchitect 2 on top of the powerful Microsoft Visual Studio 2005™ and has complemented it by adding a complete, fully-integrated tool suite, customizing the environment with a GUI specifically for Core System Software development.
