Abstract
New instruction-set architectures (ISAs) live or die depending on how quickly they develop a large software base. This paper describes SoftSDV, a presilicon software -development environment that has enabled at least eight commercial operating systems and numerous large applications to be ported and tuned to IA-64, well in advance of Itanium^TM processor's first silicon. IA-64 versions of Microsoft Windows 2000 and Trillian Linux* that were developed on SoftSDV booted within ten days of the availability of the Itanium processor.
