Linux mobile distro wins software award
MontaVista's Mobilinux 5.0 Linux distribution for mobile phones won an EDN Magazine 2008 "Innovation Award" under the software category. The award for "Innovator of the Year," meanwhile, went to Intel's 45nm semiconductor process technology team.
The EDN Innovation Awards honor significant people, products, and technologies that have shaped the semiconductor industry over the past year, says EDN. Based on MontaVista Linux Professional Edition, Mobilinux was released last year in version 5.0, and powers "90 percent of Linux smartphones," according to MontaVista.
Mobilinux also beat out Microsoft's recently renamed Robotics Studio platform, currently available in a free public beta.
