In about 1991, Software Components Group was acquired by [[Integrated Systems Inc.]] (ISI) which further developed pSOS, then renamed as pSOS+, for other microprocessor families, by rewriting most of it in the [[programming language]] [[C (programming language)|C]]. Attention was also paid to supporting successively more [[integrated development environment]]s, culminating in pRISM+.
 
In July 1994, [[Integrated Systems Inc.]]ISI acquired [[Digital Research]]'s modular real-time multi-tasking operating system [[FlexOS]] from [[Novell]].<ref name="pNDE"/>
 
In 1995, [[Integrated Systems Inc.]]ISI offered a <code>pSOSystem/NEST</code> package for [[Novell Embedded Systems Technology|Novell's Embedded Systems Technology]] (NEST).<ref name="Novell_1995_NEST"/><ref name="pNDE"/>
 
In February 2000, [[Integrated Systems Inc.]]ISI was acquired by [[Wind River Systems]], the originators of the rival RTOS [[VxWorks]]. Despite initial reports that pSOS support would continue, development was halted. Wind River announced plans for a 'convergence' version of VxWorks which will support pSOS system calls, and that no further releases of pSOS will occur.
 
[[NXP Semiconductors]] acquired pSOS for [[TriMedia (mediaprocessor)|TriMedia]] from Wind River and continued to support this OS for the TriMedia [[very long instruction word]] (VLIW) core.<!-- Likely not after 2010, when NXP's TriMedia group was terminated. -->
Line 53:
Popular ''Secure Sockets Layer'' (SSL), now ''[[Transport Layer Security]]'' (TLS), libraries such as [[wolfSSL]] still support pSOS.
