embeddedMIND™ provides multi-protocol management infrastructure
for networked devices. The innovative architecture dramatically reduces management layer development time. This is achieved through a combination
of leveraged intellectual property, pre-integrated components and design automation.
Legacy solutions have typically evolved from in-house single protocol solutions retro-fitted to support the multiple protocol needs of modern device management.
embeddedMIND™ is a multi-protocol solution designed to be easily customisable to your needs. embeddedMIND™ provides a radical improvement over traditional architectures for management software
and delivers major benefits in terms of development cost, time to market and future extensibility. Ongoing product development provides a roadmap to future management protocols.
embeddedMIND™ is targetted at networked devices with particular emphasis on network infrastructure devices in the telecom and datacom space. Product scalability means embeddedMIND™ uses range from residential gateways to multi-service switches, from DSLAMs and enterprise routers to core optical switches and wireless infrastructure elements.
embeddedMIND™ also provides an efficient solution for device families which are joining the networked world. This includes consumer devices such as multi-media set top boxes, home medical equipment and home automation systems.
embeddedMIND™ allows application providers and hardware component manufacturers to add value by providing out-of-the-box management interfaces to their products. This allows customers to more easily evaluate applications by moving quickly to actual use without integration efforts lengthening the sales cycle.
embeddedMIND™ reduces the cost
of management layer software development by:
- Reusing integration effort across protocols to avoid the effort duplication of traditional architectures.
- Automating many tasks which in traditional solutions require manual coding effort.
- Pre-integrating with some 3rd
party components to provide an
out-of-the-box solution.
- Simplifying maintenance by using a clear well-structured architecture which ensures fewer bugs and easier functional enhancements.

Use of embeddedMIND™ reduces
the risk in management software development by:
- Allowing rapid generation of a prototype management layer
before the underlying device has been fully defined.
- Supporting integrated management layer and device testing.
- Supporting an iterative development approach with preservation of existing effort.
- Providing an architecture which allows later addition of new management protocols thus future-proofing the development effort.
