Oct 24, 2011 10:05 AM, MD&D News Staff

Affirming the company’s commitment to QNX Software Systems, Tridium’s NiagaraAX Framework 3.6 optimally runs on the QNX Neutrino real-time operating system (RTOS). The Niagara Framework software platform is a tool for developing device-to-enterprise applications, Internet-enabled products, and automation system solutions. It drives Tridium’s JACE AX Controllers, which suit a variety of applications including energy and sustainability management, intelligent building automation, machine-to-machine (M2M), telecommunications, industrial, security, lighting control, convergence retailing, and smart facilities management. Simplifying device driver development, QNX Software Systems’ resource manager framework allows developers to write, debug, and run drivers in memory-protected user space. In turn, the framework enables Tridium developers to write new drivers for specialized hardware in less time than on other platforms.
