Vienna/Austria, February 6, 2004 — dmn Software-Entwicklung GmbH (DMN), Europe’s leading HAVi 1.1 solution provider is pleased to announce to have extended its range of supported operating systems (OS) for its entire HAVi stack product range by RTOS QNX®. The list of supported OS for its entire HAVi stack now includes beside QNX® also Windows® as well as the popular open source operating system Linux. Furthermore, it has been proven to run on RTEMS (Real-Time Executive for Multiprocessor Systems operating system).

The change to another operating system does not affect any higher HAVi modules/applications or other supported protocols such as AV/C since all modifications are located in DMN’s ALOS (Abstraction Layer for OS) and AL1394 (Abstraction Layer for 1394 driver) modules.
