  • Publication number: 20090175177
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a system for testing a wireless network device (1) connected to a communication channel (3), whereby:—a testing computer (2) connected to the communication channel (3) starts a test function;—the wireless network device (1) starts a unifying testing module being adapted to a hardware constellation of said wireless network device (1) and/or an operating system running on said wireless network device (1) and providing an application programming interface connected to said communication channel (3) and being independent of said hardware constellation and/or said operating system;—said test function sends at least one command to said unifying testing module at least via said communication channel (3) and said application programming interface; and—said unifying testing module executes said command from the test function and sends at least a status of execution of said command back to the test function at least via the application programming interface and said communication c

  • Patent number: 7404153
    Abstract: In order to improve the functionality of a computer-assisted design, test and/or development environment for a data processing circuit arrangement, the instructions of the circuit arrangement are stored in a machine-readable manner in a data base with the binary representations thereof. The allocation of a predefined binary representation (instruction code) to an instruction occurs in a modifiable manner. In this way, processors can be developed which are specialized and optimized in terms of processing specific software applications. The invention also relates to a computer-assisted design, test and/or circuit environment corresponding the above-mentioned method.

  • Publication number: 20050097531
    Abstract: In order to minimize the time taken to compile a source code program into a machine-readable target object program in a network environment when the processor is also further developed at the same time as the program is being created, a method is proposed in which the compiler program continuously scans an input interface of the server (10) for a source code program newly written thereto, and a client program is started on a client (20-50), wherein the running of said program causes a source code program that is to be compiled to be written to the input interface of the server and causes an output interface of the server to be continuously scanned for a target object program newly written thereto. In response to the detection of a source code program newly written to the input interface of the server, the source code program is read and compiled into a target object program, which is subsequently written to the output interface of the server.
