Tokyo, Japan. March 18, 2008 - eSOL, a leading developer of realtime embedded software solutions, today announced that it will present a special conference session on application development for multicore processors as part of the company's participation in the Multicore EXPO, which begins April 1 in Santa Clara, California, USA.

Presented by Masaki Gondo, eSOL's Engineering Director and RTOS Architect, the session will introduce eSOL's innovative Blended Scheduling™ technology. It uniquely blends SMP capability and AMP capability with a single, realtime operating system (RTOS), providing an alternative to such issues with mixing different OSes. This talk will describe eSOL's blended AMP/SMP RTOS technology and the tightly integrated debugging and profiling support for the new generation of multiprocessor solutions.

In addition, eSOL's conference booth will showcase its comprehensive development solutions targeted to multiprocessor developers. Knowledgeable representatives will demonstrate why eSOL's multicore-ready RTOS and related tools are used worldwide by industry-leading original design manufacturers (ODMs) and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).

"This is a perfect opportunity to find out how eSOL's innovative Blended Multiprocessing™ technology can lead to significant competitive advantages for multiprocessor programming, debugging, and development." said Bob Ueyama, Executive Vice President of the Embedded Products Division at eSOL Co., Ltd.

Special Conference Session
Blending Asymmetric and Symmetric Multiprocessing with a Single OS
Presented by Masaki Gondo, Engineering Director and RTOS Architect, eSOL Co., Ltd.

Thursday, April 3
9:15 to 10:20 a.m.

Masaki Gondo will describe some of today's biggest challenges associated with RTOS technology for multicore-processor application developers.

Based on Gondo's popular Web article, his presentation will represent the demands posed by many newer consumer electronics and car-infotainment devices. Their wide range of system functionalities require different levels of realtime processing, performance profiles, use of legacy software, and engineering resources.

Gondo will explain how to use the RTOS to solve these challenges, including the use of new scheduling modes and enhanced development-tool support.
