Boston Circuits provides a version of the Linux operating system that has been ported to the gCORE. This distribution of Linux comes with standard GNU and Exclipse based tools, and a library called GridWare that gives the programmer seamless access to the features of the gCORE processors. Using these libraries, standard Linux applications can run as is. Boston Circuits plans to add support for other operating systems in the future.
