"Embedded operating system is ubiquitous, all kinds of industrial equipment will be used on the chip, it is like a personal computer on the Windows system or cell phone on the Android system, you can let the device 'run' up. Compared to the latter, it has higher real-time requirements." Recently, the "2019 Nanjing Innovation Week Media Tour" came to Yihui Information located in Yuhuatai Hi-Tech Zone, Yunmizheng City, the company's R&D director Li Xiaocheng used a graphic analogy to popularize this "invisible" operating system: embedded operating system is a specialized computer system designed for a specific application. Embedded operating system is a special computer system designed for specific applications, from large spaceships to small home appliances, their internal "embedded" in the underlying software system. In recent years, although China's domestic chip breakthroughs, but the development of domestic embedded operating system has been lagging behind, many domestic operating systems are based on foreign open source system transformation.
"The system is characterized by small and compact, cross-platform support for eight processor architectures. More importantly, domestic autonomy also means a high degree of security." Li Xiaocheng introduction, the use of foreign operating system equipment in the face of virus attacks are often in a passive position, the independent operating system can be found in a timely manner to stop the vulnerability, to ensure network security, to change China's basic software in the field of the constraints of the "neck" problem.
According to reports, "Wing Fai SylixOS" early application in the defense industry, aerospace and other fields, such as public reports of the China Aerospace Science and Technology "Seahawk Wing Fai" domestic missile operating system, part of the commercial satellites, ships and so on. In 2016, Wing Fai information settled in Nanjing, is located in the development of a number of civil industry integration headquarters. At present, the company has hundreds of cooperative enterprises, involving medical, public transportation, electric power, rail transit, automobile manufacturing and other industries. The "Yihui SylixOS" operating system is setting off a wave of domestic substitution in many fields: in train operation control, the company has reached a strategic cooperation with China Tongzhou Group; Evert, the largest domestic industrial robot shipment enterprise, started to carry this system two years ago; in electric power, Yihui Information participates in the undertaking of the "nuclear high base". In the electric power sector, Yifai Information has participated in the "Nuclear High Base" National Science and Technology Major Special Project "Customization and Application of Electric Power Control System" sub-topic, and has made key breakthroughs.
"From the early followers to parallel runners, now we have come to no man's land, out of a road that no one has traveled." Li Xiaocheng said. Last year, the company and Ni Guangnan academician, Beijing Jiaotong University, Professor Liu Feng team, China (Nanjing) Software Valley and other joint establishment of a new R & D institution Nanjing Independent Operating System Research Institute, the Institute relies on the Nanjing software industry foundation and scientific and educational talent advantages, focusing on research and development of high-speed rail and other rail transit control systems and equipment of the national industrialization platform, the future will be joint chip design and manufacturing and industry applications, such as upstream and downstream enterprises, to create a In the future, we will join hands with upstream and downstream enterprises in chip design and manufacturing and industry applications to create a new ecosystem, form an industrial cluster in Nanjing, and fill the gaps in the domestic operating system and the entire industrial system.
