Source-code upload procedure

 

The purpose of this web-site is to create value from your developer’s experience.


Our primary focus is the delivery of source-code libraries for data-crunching on DSP and ARM processors. We would also like to provide any type on technical consulting (patent prior-art researches, trainings, …).

 

Money comes from paid downloads of the source codes, and later consulting services for customisations.

 

Your code must be well documented to help creating confidence with our customers and lower the time spent in remote support.

 

Your code is your property we will together have a commercial and licensing agreement where we keep 10% of your selling price. Your code will be reviewed before being uploaded or rejected if not complying to usual software quality standards.


The code is distributed under LGPL. 


You will provide support for the advertised features of your code.
