Continuum Insights

Overview

Continuum Insights™ is a suite of GUI-based software tools designed to ease and optimize the development of application software for multi-computer embedded systems. Designed to support systems ranging from a few to hundreds of processors/cores, Continuum Insights enables application programmers greater visibility into the entire system through the collection of critical, periodic, non-intrusive, real-time data. Continuum Insights aims to provide the level of information needed by developers of complex systems to accurately tune their system and ultimately speed time to market.

Continuum Insights is built using the Eclipse™ Development and Application Frameworks, which draws from the open source community for open development platforms and ensures maximum compatibility with industry leading Integrated Development Environments.

Continuum Insights furthers Curtiss-Wrights COTS Continuum product architecture by harnessing the advantages of complementary Continuum products such as Continuum Firmware & BSP™, Continuum Vector™, and Continuum IPC™.  Continuum Insights is supported on Curtiss-Wright's new VPX/VPX-REDI based single board computers, and DSP and FPGA engines including the CHAMP-AV6, the VPX6-185, and CHAMP-FX2 products.

Continuum Insights Features:

Event Analysis Tool

The Continuum Insights Event Analysis Tool collects and displays operating system-level events, driver-level events, and user-defined events across multiple processors and cores within a system, all accurately time aligned using a common time-base.  Because the event data is collected in real-time, Continuum Insights enables developers to debug and verify critical interactions between tasks among multiple processor and cores.

System Monitoring Tool

The System Monitoring tool provides a hierachical, graphical representation of a multicomputer system.  System and health information are updated in real-time providing displays of processing threads, utilization, task allocations, and processor-level and system-level configuration information.

 



Event Analysis Tool

  • Uses a common time-base for accurate synchronization of event data across all processors
  • Supports ability to insert user-defined events around application code to fine tune the application and debug processor interactions
  • Scales to systems consisting of a few to hundreds of processing nodes


System Monitoring Tool

  • Provides system-level information such as card counts, types, and slot information
  • Provides Processor/Core information such as processor utilization, memory usage statistics, and running tasks
  • Easily monitors card-level and system failures
