Compile-Time Analysis Spots Quality and Security Problems An enhanced compile-time analysis tool identifies quality and security problems, helping companies to avoid failures in the field. CodeSonar 3.6 from GrammaTech provides a radically improved graphical user interface (GUI) to streamline developer interaction and boost productivity. In addition, CodeSonar 3.6’s analysis engine is more efficient. For large code bases, the analysis time has been reduced by as much as a third. CodeSonar is an advanced static-analysis tool that performs a whole-program, interprocedural analysis on code and identifies complex programming bugs that can result in system crashes, memory corruption and other serious problems. Like a compiler, CodeSonar does a build of the code. However, instead of creating object code, CodeSonar creates an abstract model of the program, capturing information about the program’s control flow and the relationships between data. The program model is executed symbolically by CodeSonar’s analysis engine. Automated reasoning about feasible paths and program variables is used to identify tricky defects, including defects that result from complex interactions among procedures. CodeSonar 3.6 is available today starting at $18,000 for small projects. Licenses for larger projects are based on the size of the project.

Server-Grade Network Appliance Supports the Latest Xeon 5600 Series Processor

A new server-grade network appliance supports the Intel Xeon 5600 series quad-core and six-core processor based on 32 nm processor technology. The CAR-5010 from American Portwell features a 2U rackmount chassis, dual sockets for Intel Xeon 5600 series processors with an integrated memory controller, up to 6.4 GT/s Intel Quick Path Interconnect (QPI) Technology links between the two processors and Intel 5520 I/O Hub with 36 PCI Express generation 2.0 lanes, six DDR3 DIMM slots for each processor. The CAR-5010 provides extensive throughput performance using PCI Express Gen 2.0 solutions of both GbE and 10GbE bandwidth, at a competitive price. The CAR-5010 also supports remote network monitoring and active management. The remote management features include KVM, IPMI 2.0, Power Management, Virtual Media, IPMI Authentication and Web GUI. The CAR-5010 network appliance built with a 10G PCIe SFP+ network interface card (NIC)—one of the many NIC options—delivers breakthrough performance of multicore, 10 GbE computing, in addition to supporting the Linux OS, the most secured carrier-grade OS for the network and communication industry. It allows network application developers to consolidate solutions and lower development costs with a great feature set supporting both the PCI Express Generation 1.0 and 2.0, GbE and 10GbE (Intel 82599ES/EB), Copper and Fiber NIC with bypass or without bypass (fail-over). Customers can choose from these different solution portfolios to enhance their development cycle and launch their products to the market faster. American Portwell Technology, Fremont, CA.
