Machine Ware

Virtual Prototyping for Next-Generation Embedded Systems

In today’s embedded industry, the growing complexity of hardware and software integration demands innovative tools that allow engineers to develop, validate, and optimize systems long before physical prototypes are available. MachineWare is at the forefront of this transformation, providing advanced virtual prototyping solutions that enable faster development cycles, lower costs, and higher reliability. Represented in Israel by ITEC LTD, MachineWare empowers companies in automotive, aerospace, industrial, and high-tech sectors to accelerate innovation while ensuring safety and performance.

The Vision of MachineWare

MachineWare’s mission is to eliminate the bottlenecks caused by traditional hardware-dependent workflows. By delivering accurate and efficient virtual prototypes of embedded processors and systems, their technology allows engineers to design, test, and optimize embedded software without waiting for physical hardware. This shift not only saves valuable time but also reduces risks, enabling teams to detect design flaws, performance issues, or security gaps at the earliest possible stage.

Key Advantages of Virtual Prototyping

• Early Development Start: Engineers can begin coding and validation months before silicon is available.
• Increased Productivity: Teams can run simulations in parallel, with unlimited scalability in virtual environments.
• Lower Costs: Eliminates reliance on expensive hardware prototypes and repeated testing cycles.
• Enhanced Debugging: Deep visibility into processor states, timing, and interactions that are impossible to capture on real hardware.
• Security and Safety Validation: Simulation-based methods make it easier to validate compliance with safety-critical standards such as ISO 26262, DO-178C, and IEC 61508.

Technology Highlights

MachineWare provides cycle-accurate and high-performance processor models that cover a broad range of embedded architectures. These models integrate seamlessly into system-level simulations, giving developers a complete digital twin of their target hardware. Whether for RISC-V, ARM, or custom architectures, MachineWare enables realistic and scalable simulation for embedded applications.

One of the company’s strongest assets is its Just-in-Time (JIT) compiled simulation engine, which delivers exceptional performance without compromising accuracy. This ensures that complex workloads, such as those found in automotive ADAS systems or industrial automation, can be validated in real-time conditions.

Applications Across Industries

• Automotive: Virtual ECUs allow automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers to accelerate ECU software development and test compliance with standards like AUTOSAR and ISO 26262.
• Aerospace and Defense: Enables early verification of mission-critical systems while ensuring strict safety and certification requirements are met.
• Industrial Automation: Supports the design of robust and reliable controllers for factory automation and robotics.
• IoT and Edge Devices: Provides a secure, scalable platform for developing and validating firmware for connected devices.

Integration into the Development Workflow

MachineWare solutions are designed to fit into modern development toolchains. Their platforms support popular debuggers, compilers, and modeling tools, enabling seamless adoption by embedded teams. This integration ensures that engineers can leverage existing workflows while gaining the additional benefits of virtualization.

Furthermore, virtual prototypes provide an ideal foundation for continuous integration and continuous testing (CI/CD) pipelines. With unlimited scalability in the cloud, developers can execute thousands of test cases in parallel, dramatically increasing test coverage and reliability.

Benefits for Safety-Critical Systems

In domains where safety is paramount, such as automotive and aerospace, MachineWare’s technology provides a decisive advantage. Virtual prototypes allow organizations to verify compliance with safety-critical standards early in the process, reducing costly late-stage redesigns. The ability to simulate fault injection, worst-case scenarios, and timing conditions ensures systems meet the highest safety and reliability requirements.
