Beijing, May 15, 2006 - Attended by Many Developers and Industry Partners attended the annual move and embedded developer conference, Microsoft announced the launch of the beta version of Windows® CE 6. This software is the next-generation version of the Microsoft industry and real-time software. It is mainly used to build customized operating systems, such as IP set-top boxes, equipment, industrial automation and medical equipment based on GPS global positioning system. With redesigned operating systems (OS) kernel architectures, and enhanced concurrent processing capabilities and new integrated tools, Windows CE 6 will help device manufacturers make excellent equipment faster, and make it satisfied with a range of high-performance demand. Application field.
Suzan Delbene, vice president of Mobile and Embedded Products Company, talked: "We are very happy to be with partners to publish new version software to celebrate the Windows CE 10 years. New version software will be global intelligent connection The future development of the equipment provides powerful driving. We once again improve the technology and tools provided by developers to assist them accelerate the product to put the market and make their products and services more outstanding. "
By using a plugin that has become Visual Studio 2005, Windows CE 6 provides a more integrated embedded development environment. Now, developers can use single, familiar tools, quickly develop operating systems and applications, thus shortening time-to-market, effectively reducing development costs. With Visual Studio 2005, Microsoft is helping more than 7 million developers worldwide use their existing tools and skills to create innovations, excellent embedded devices.
Windows embedded MVP (most valuable expert), OpenNetcf consulting department Advanced Partner Chris Tacke talked: "With Windows CE 6, we not only have single, unified tools to develop software-oriented operating systems and applications, while owns A more powerful and flexible kernel can serve as a platform that meets the next generation of equipment requirements. The above two features allow developers to quickly and easily build and debug the entire device solution without learning the settings of these two tools. This is a powerful tool that effectively improves the production capacity of developers and helps accelerate the product to put market. "
The redesigned operating system kernel architecture supports both 32 to 32,000 processors: each processor runs in 2GB virtual memory address space, which greatly improves concurrent processing capabilities. This allows developers to integrate a large amount of more complex applications to more intelligent devices than ever, thereby providing high-performance multimedia, web services, and wireless network connection applications. Windows CE 6 is compatible with most of the previous generation of Windows CEs, allowing device manufacturers to continue to use previously developed customer interface, application, middleware, and drivers without increasing the development costs in this area.
Windows CE 6 enhances shared success mode and builds in Microsoft's "shared source code plan" to enable developers to have a wide range of millions of Windows CE source code. Developers and equipment manufacturers have the right to modify and re-distribute their custom components based on Windows CE products and retain their modified intellectual property rights. Shared Source Codes also includes a flexible template that the original device manufacturer can create unique, customized user interfaces, making its device greater advantage. *
Barry Evans, general manager of Intel, General Manager, said: "Intel and Microsoft have long-term cooperative relationships, together to improve the performance and flexibility based on Intel Xscale technology and Windows CE. We will continue this Intel-based Intel The processor family of third-generation Intel Xscale technology (alias 'monahans') and the cooperation between Microsoft Windows CE 6. "
