TOKYO, June 16, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Hills Software, a worldwide leader in embedded safety and security, today announces that Hitachi Solutions Technology, Ltd. (formerly Hitachi ULSI Systems Co., Ltd.), a software engineering services provider, is now a value-added integrator for Green Hills Software's INTEGRITY® RTOS and INTEGRITY Multivisor(TM) virtualization solutions. Green Hills Software and Hitachi Solutions Technology will leverage each other's expertise in building safe and secure software systems to guide customers in building solutions based on the INTEGRITY RTOS for the Asian automotive, medical, industrial, railroad, and IoT (Internet of Things) markets.

The increasing demands placed on embedded software systems requires coordination between software vendors, hardware vendors, customers and the customer supply chain to ensure that the complex safety and security solutions required of the industry are implemented efficiently and competently. Starting from 2002, Green Hills Software has offered development toolchains (including its compilers and debuggers) and RTOSes certified to the highest levels of safety and security, including IEC 61508 SIL 4 and ISO 26262 ASIL D. Hitachi Solutions Technology will work together with Green Hills Software to help customers use the Green Hills INTEGRITY RTOS and INTEGRITY Multivisor to build and support integrated embedded software systems able to meet even the most complex customer requirements and demands.

No other solution on the market can deliver the same security and safety capabilities that the INTEGRITY RTOS is enabling customers to utilize today.
