TimeSys to Include embedded training in its webinar series

  TimeSys(R) Expands Educational Webinar Series to Include Embedded
            Training Curriculum for LinuxLink Subscribers

    PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 9, 2006--TimeSys(R) Corporation,
the leading developer service provider for the embedded Linux market,
announces the next series of embedded Linux webinars, available
beginning in June. The latest series will offer free educational
sessions and more in-depth training available to LinuxLink subscribers
through the developer exchange. Both the educational and training
sessions will be available via webinar, allowing attendees to interact
with TimeSys experts and developers. While both sessions will be
recorded and archived for convenient replay, the training curriculum
will be expanded to provide an on-demand resource for subscribers.

    Educational Webinar Series:

    TimeSys offers its services through LinuxLink subscriptions, which
includes a number of cross-development and Eclipse-based tools that
simplify every step in the development process. As follow-on to
cross-development topics, each of the new sessions will explore
challenges in embedded development, and enable live interaction with
technical experts from TimeSys. Topics covered in this new Webinar
series include:

    Eclipse and Embedded

    Learn about the core capabilities of the Eclipse project, how
Eclipse manages project and where you can download this great, free
tool. While the Eclipse project started as an integrated development
environment for Java developers, the additional tools for C/C++
programmers developed in the C/C++ Development Toolkit (CDT) make
Eclipse a viable for those coding in C/C++ using the GNU's GCC
toolset. Thursday, June 15, 2006 at 10:00 AM Pacific Time/1:00 PM

    Embedded Development with TimeStorm

    Engineers involved in embedded projects have special requirements
not found in standard integrated development environments. TimeSys
built the TimeStorm product on top of Eclipse to satisfy these
requirements: tool chain management, cross-compilation and remote
program execution and debugging. In this webinar, you'll see first
hand how TimeStorm solves these problems and how it boosts the
productivity of developers by offering a complete, integrated solution
for embedded developers. Tuesday, June 20, 2006 at 10:00 AM Pacific

    OProfile and TimeStorm

    Embedded systems typically have timing constraints and resource
contention bottlenecks that are difficult to find with intrusive
debugging tools. To solve these problems, embedded engineers need
tools that record the state of the system while it's running and
TimeStorm's latest release includes tight integration with OProfile to
provide this functionality. This webinar will walk through using
TimeStorm and OProfile to examine a system that has a priority
inversion, so you can see first-hand the ease of using OProfile and
the data visualization tools included in this release of TimeStorm.

    LinuxLink Training Curriculum:

    TimeSys will also kick-off a training curriculum for LinuxLink and
Developer Suite subscribers. These training sessions will focus on
using LinuxLink and Embedded Linux tools to be successful in embedded
development projects. The training curriculum and schedule will be
accessible by logging into the Developer Exchange
(https://linuxlink.timesys.com). Initial topics to be covered in the
training series include:

    Overview of new features (TimeStorm 3.2)

    Participants in this webinar will learn about the new productivity
tools in TimeStorm 3.2. This release of TimeStorm includes tight
integration with OProfile as well as a host of other features and
improvements. The webinar will also include an overview of the
TimeStorm product for new subscribers.

    Application development and debugging using LinuxLink Developer
Suite

    Start with an empty workspace and build working application as you
get a guided tour on how to use TimeStorm for application development
and debugging. This webinar will walk users through the mechanics of
setting-up a project, adding a compiler to the environment and
debugging code on a remote target, all within the TimeStorm integrated
development environment.

    Linux kernel development and debugging using LinuxLink Developer
Suite

    Kernel development doesn't have to be done from the command-line!
TimeStorm offers the same level of integration and convenience for
kernel developers and application developers. During this webinar,
you'll learn how to create a project based on a Linux kernel, use the
kernel configuration editor, build your project and even remotely
debug the kernel from within the TimeStorm integrated development
environment.

    Target root file system design using LinuxLink Developer Suite

    Creating a fully-functional root file system (RFS) using
traditional tools can be a daunting task; fortunately, TimeStorm
includes tools substantially reducing the effort necessary to create a
RFS for your target system. This webinar will lead the participant
step-by-step through the process of creating a RFS from components
with TimeStorm. Participants in this webinar will learn about the
features in TimeStorm that take the risk and frustration out of the
creating an RFS.

    Using the LinuxLink Developer Suite online builder

    As a LinuxLink Developer Suite subscriber, you have access to the
same powerful tools that TimeSys uses to create Linux distributions.
Learn how to use the LinuxLink Builder on-line tool to create your own
Linux distributions from a combination of LinuxLink-supplied and your
own components. Wizards in LinuxLink make starting a project easy and
the Builder gives you control over every aspect of your distribution.

    System profiling using LinuxLink Developer Suite

    System profiling allows you to see and diagnose resource
contention and timing problems by monitoring your project while its
running code and displaying the results in a easy to understand
format. TimeStorm's integration with OProfile provides a complete
system profiling solution and this webinar will show the participant
how to take advantage of this new feature. Learn what programs you
need on your target system, how to compile your code and how to
collect results from within the TimeStorm integrated development
environment. Understand what problems you can solve with OProfile and
how to get the most from this great new addition to TimeStorm.
