RTI Offers Leading DDS Implementation Without Charge to IR&D, SBIR and University Projects

Sunnyvale, CA, March 18, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Real-Time Innovations (RTI), The Real-Time Middleware Experts, announced today that RTI Data Distribution Service will now be without cost for most Independent Research and Development (IR&D), Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and university projects. This makes DDS technology accessible to many projects that cannot acquire commercial software or accept the effort and risk inherent in using immature or unsupported open-source options.

Dr. Stan Schneider, RTI’s CEO commented, “RTI’s user-friendly, top-performing DDS implementation is now available without cost or paperwork. Further, it comes with a free online support system, and for a small fee, with the industry’s best support. RTI consistently achieves 98 percent customer satisfaction. This announcement expands that experience to many more projects.”

Support Options
In addition to access to the most mature DDS implementation, RTI’s no-cost licenses give developers the support benefits of a widely used commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) product. This support improves productivity, accelerates implementation and minimizes risk.

Availability
No-cost research licenses to RTI Data Distribution Service are available for the Windows and Linux platforms. Application programming interfaces support C, C++, Java and .NET (C# and C++/CLI).

The software is immediately downloadable from RTI’s website at
