COMMENT - The individual seated at the left is John Fund, who received the singularly valuable assistance of Green Hills Software, Inc., in early 2003, when an officer of the company mailed him a document which he put up on line as part of a continuing campaign to destroy the credibility of Morgan Pillsbury, who he had battered and tried to have murdered the year before.
The document, a deposition, was uncertified, and therefore it was not legal to copy or provide it to anyone.
Several months earlier, Morgan had vented her spleen against Sidney Blumenthal, who, she said, had hacked her computer, stealing information about Fund and the Bush Administration. Morgan hacked Sid's computer, installing a keylogger.
She found a lot more than comments from Sid's editor, and these were revelations the Bush administration was very anxious not find the light of day. They still are.
Nothing about it was political. It started with the Weaselsearch Tape, on which you can hear John and Morgan discuss how to artfully lie as John opines on how you present what you want the facts to be.
An article was written in 2001, published September 4th, by John Connelly, who also writes for Vanity Fair. It was titled, "Sex, Lies, and the Tape."
NEWS RELEASE
Integrated ARM-Based Hard Processor System (HPS) Combined With FPGA Advances Reductions in System Power, Cost and Board Space
Press Release: Green Hills Software – Tue, Apr 23, 2013 8:00 AM 
SANTA BARBARA, CA and SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 23, 2013) - DESIGN West, Booth 1320 --
Green Hills Software, the largest independent vendor of embedded
software solutions, today announced the upcoming availability of its
industry-leading INTEGRITY® RTOS and comprehensive software development and run-time solutions for the Altera® Cyclone®
V SoC. Green Hills Software supported solutions include the INTEGRITY
real-time operating system (RTOS) with SMP configuration; its
award-winning MULTI® integrated development environment (IDE); a full suite of middleware including network stacks, file systems and conformant POSIX; and the Green Hills JTAG Probe.
"Our Cyclone V SoC products provide customers a superior
architecture, both from a silicon and an embedded software perspective,
and the addition of Green Hills INTEGRITY RTOS and MULTI tools support
only furthers our architectural advantage," said Chris Balough, senior
director of SoC product marketing at Altera. "Support for INTEGRITY RTOS
and MULTI tools enables our customers to quickly develop small
footprint, low-cost and high-performance scalable systems with absolute
reliability and safety targets in mind."Altera Cyclone V SoCs include several distinctive features that enable developers in the wireless communications, industrial, video surveillance, automotive and medical equipment markets to create custom SoC variants optimized for system power, board space, performance and cost requirements. The integrated ARM-based hard processor system found in the Cyclone V SoC consists of a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor, peripherals, and memory interfaces, and is connected with the FPGA fabric using a high-bandwidth interconnect backbone.
With the Cyclone V SoCs, Altera is the only FPGA vendor today shipping SoCs that offer 32-bit error correction code (ECC) support, which helps ensure data integrity throughout the memory system. ECC support is a requirement for customers who are designing highly reliable systems. ECC functionality is built into the SoC's external DRAM memory interface and an extensive number of on-chip memory instances and peripheral interfaces, including L2 Cache, scratch RAM, Ethernet MACs, USB ports and flash memory interfaces. Other unique features in the device family include a high-bandwidth memory controller with built-in memory protection, flexible boot capability and integrated PCI Express® (PCIe®) across all SoC devices.
The comprehensive Green Hills support for the Altera Cyclone V SoC includes:
- INTEGRITY real-time operating system (RTOS) with SMP configuration
- Full suite of middleware, with:
- High reliability / journaling file systems
- Wear leveling FLASH storage
- TCP/IP v4/v6 Network stack
- POSIX Conformant System interfaces
- Award-winning MULTI development environment
- Industry's fastest C/C++ ARM compilers
- Green Hills JTAG Probe
In addition, the Green Hills tool suite has recently been independently qualified by multiple agencies for use in developing application code that requires certification up to the highest safety levels, covering industrial safety IEC 61508 SIL 4, railway EN 50128 SIL 4 and the new automotive ISO 26262 ASIL D standard.
"Combining the INTEGRITY RTOS's independent certification pedigree and proven use in the world's most reliable systems with Altera's ECC-enabled SoCs empowers customers to develop the most advanced, highly reliable solutions, while achieving excellent power, performance, size and cost metrics," commented Dan Mender, vice president business development, Green Hills Software. "Altera's Cyclone V SoCs provide the ultimate combination of hardened intellectual property (IP) for performance and power savings with the flexibility of programmable logic."
Availability Green Hills Software will sell its solutions for the Altera Cyclone V SoC in 2Q 2013.
