32 Operating System Windows Embedded Compact Rich experience in Windows Embedded since more than 10 years! 33

33 Operating System Windows Embedded Compact - Architecture 34

34 Operating System Windows Embedded Compact - Coding Native Code C / C++ Qt (3rd party) Silverlight Managed Code C# VB.NET Java (3rd party) #include <windows.h> /* * Application entry point. * * Say hello. */ int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { RETAILMSG(1,(L"Hello World from native code \r\n")); return 0; }//_tmain 35

35 Operating System Windows Embedded Compact - Silverlight Framework for modern, intuitive and highly customizable UIs Separate Designers (UI) from Developers (business logic) Business Logic: Visual Studio UI development: Expression Blend (XAML) Silverlight is THE technology for graphic user interfaces 36

36 Operating System Windows Embedded Compact - Tools Remote Registry Editor Time Line Viewer Kernel Tracker Application Verifier (memory leaks) 37

37 Operating System Windows Embedded Compact 2013 Still based on CE core: hard-real-time, small footprint Supported CPUs: ARM v7, Thumb2, VFPv3+NEON Native (C++) and managed (C#) application development support in Visual Studio 2012.NET Compact Framework 3.9 Kernel update: increased file system performance Hardware optimized code paths for Silverlight for Windows Embedded (SWE) SWE UI development tools in Expression Blend 5.0 Faster OS boot (2 seconds from power-on) 38

38 Operating System Linux vs Windows Embedded Compact Technical Features? Do you get what you need? Development environment? If both operating systems meet your technical needs, then compare the business requirements for each option by analyzing the fixed and variable project costs. Has Customer experience with WINCE or Linux? If customer only need WINCE Core License royalties aren t the point IP protection vs open Source? 39
