“C.N.S. Systems AB (Linkoping, Sweden) announced that it has
used MontaVista Linux Carrier Grade Edition as the operating system
platform within the ground station portion of a new air traffic
control system in Europe. According to C.N.S., the integrated
system of ground and mobile units uses the VDL Mode 4 digital radio
link, a new standard for air traffic control in Europe, to provide
surveillance, navigation, and communication services between ground
stations and mobile units, or among mobile units that are either
mounted in aircraft or in vehicles operating in airport areas.“‘MontaVista Linux Carrier Grade Edition provided us with a
robust and stable platform and enabled us to get to market in an
extremely short time period,’ commented C.N.S. chief technology
officer Tommy Bergstrom…”
