The first update to Arm Development Studio is now available. Arm Development Studio 2019.0 builds upon the 2018.0 release, offering further support for the latest Arm IP and technologies.

The new Arm Compiler 6.12 achieved the highest 4.02 CoreMarks/MHz on a Cortex-M33. New features include stack protection, global named register variables and Neoverse, Cortex-A65AE and Helium support.…

GNU compilers and LLVM-based compilers like the Arm Compiler for HPC have three compiler flags in common: -march, -mtune, and -mcpu.  I look at what these flags mean for GNU compilers and LLVM-based compilers…

An in-depth look on porting PuTTY to Windows on Arm. Traditionally, programs like this have only ever been run on x86 machines. Simon Tatham explains how he got his side project PuTTY running on a Windows…

Development Studio is the ideal solution for developing with complex multi-core and heterogeneous Arm based devices

Slash bug finding time by gathering and storing parallel trace data from multiple sources with the new DSTREAM-PT debug probe.

In this blog I’ll discuss the various platform options for embedded software development and go through when it is appropriate to choose one type over the others.

Arm offers Functional Safety Run-Time System, a set of qualified components for Cortex-M microcontroller​s that lets developers use the highest safety integrity levels for end applications.

CMSIS has an immense role in standardizing and simplifying software development across a wide range of applications from DSP to functional safety.

Arm today announces that it is supporting the open source LLVM community through the provision of a build bot and build cache that targets the Arm architecture.

The Iris Debug and Trace interface represents a major step forward in functionality for virtual prototypes incorporating Arm Fast Model.

Another milestone achieved for the Arm Compiler 6.11.

Accurate and efficient tests are essential when developing software for embedded systems, particularly in continuous integration and functional safety flows. Quick pass/fail results from a comprehensive…

Arm NN makes it easy to move NN workloads around an SoC, reducing the need for processor-specific optimization and facilitating software portability.

The story so far: I’ve been placed in front of an HPC code base for which I have not been the primary developer (in fact I am new to the domain as well as the code). The task at hand is to find the main…

Cortex Microcontroller Software Interface Standard (CMSIS) is a vendor-independent hardware abstraction layer for Arm Cortex-M and Cortex-A processors and defines generic tool interfaces.   

This article outlines the process of using Arm Development Studio with custom Fast Model systems and provides tips to help connect Development Studio to Fast Model systems and start running and debugging…

Today I’m pleased to announce our latest toolchain, Arm Development Studio, to the wide software development community.
