Company History
The company was founded as a spin-off from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in 2016. The idea for emmtrix Technologies originated in the cutting-edge research in the European FP7-Project ALMA (287733, https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/287733) that focused on the architecture-oriented parallelization for high-performance embedded multicore systems. The core technology of the ALMA project was taken as the basis for the tools emmtrix Code Generator and emmtrix Parallel Studio and further developed for industrial requirements. Further enhancements, such as worst-case timing information from AbsInt (https://www.absint.com/) have been implemented within the European Research project ARGO (688131, http://www.argo-project.eu/) from the Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme. The tools are usable for safety-critical applications (ISO 26262 for example) since 2020.
