Tabula Announces Availability of Stylus Compiler Version 2.8.2

Software release features new 100G reference designs

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Feb. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Tabula, Inc., announced today the availability of version 2.8.2 of its Stylus® compiler, supporting its ABAX®(2) P-Series of devices. Stylus 2.8.2 includes a new 3 x 40G-to-100G low-latency Ethernet bridge reference design, as well as a high-performance search engine soft IP core developed in collaboration with Algo-Logic Systems. These and the many other capabilities included in this release are designed to facilitate next-generation 100G networking equipment development and to further improve user experience.

The new capabilities and design kits introduced in the Stylus 2.8.2 release include:

    --  A 3 x 40G-to-100G Ethernet bridge: this reference design implements a
        fully functional 40G Ethernet to 100G Ethernet bridge providing
        transparent bidirectional bridging between the 40 GigE ports and the 100
        GigE port and utilizing deficit-weighted round-robin (DWRR) traffic
        scheduler for aggregation of the 40 GigE ports. Features include:
        --  Three 40G Ethernet ports
        --  One 100G Ethernet port
        --  Forwarding table using Algo-Logic System's EMSE2 soft IP core for
            100 GigE traffic
        --  Support of multicast, broadcast and jumbo packets
        --  Host management interface serial port
    --  EMSE2 Hybrid soft IP core: created in collaboration with Algo-Logic
        Systems, this second generation exact-match search engine (EMSE2)
        delivers high-performance exact-match search capabilities. The EMSE2
        Hybrid core performs up to 150 million searches per second (MSPS),
        sufficient for a 100G Ethernet traffic stream with minimum-sized 64-byte
        packets. If additional performance is needed, it is possible to use two
        or more replicated tables simultaneously. The core supports a wide range
        of key sizes, including up to 1.5 million entries, and very wide 640-bit
        keys for even the most demanding applications.
    --  DDR3 multi-port front-end reference (MPFE) design: the DDR3 MPFE allows
        up-to-eight independent (yet synchronous) hosts to drive a single DDR3
        hard controller. The MPFE reference design has the following features:
        --  Enables up to eight independent ports (operating on the same clock)
            to drive a single hard DDR3 controller.
        --  Supports up to 2133 MT/s ×72 DDR3 throughput.
        --  Maintains a user interface that is consistent with the Tabula DDR3
            subsystem, enabling easy integration into an existing design
        --  Uses deficit round-robin arbitration to cycle between valid ports to
            optimize DDR3 efficiency

LG Electronics Introduces 105-inch Ultra HD 4K Commercial Display

Unveiled at DSE 2014, Immersive Display is Largest in LG's Ultra HD Digital Signage Portfolio

LAS VEGAS, Feb. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Electronics USA is expanding its Ultra HD large-screen commercial-grade monitor line-up for 2014 by unveiling LG's all-new 105-inch class display - its largest commercial screen to date. Introduced at Digital Signage Expo 2014 (Booth 500), LG's new edge-lit LED LCD Ultra HD Display features impressive 105-inch class screen with a 21:9 aspect ratio and 5120 x 2160 (5K) resolution for visually stunning picture clarity.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110203/CG42292LOGO-d)

"Our newest Ultra HD digital signage displays are going to turn a lot of heads at this year's show," said Dan Smith, director of digital signage, LG Electronics USA. "Our new 105- and 98-inch class products are the doorway to the future, and they literally are larger than doorways.  When combining this scale and this incredible resolution with expanded color standards and the benefits of LG IPS technology, what was only a concept a short time ago is now a reality.  It must be seen to be comprehended."

Large Scale Ultra HD Viewing

Ideal for retail settings, LG's 105-inch Ultra HD 21:9 commercial display can render stunning, life-size images of people and products. LG's newest model has five times the resolution of a Full HD display*, for crisp pictures with an incredible level of detail. The 21:9 aspect ratio screen is perfect for displaying all types of content, giving customers the freedom of a broad canvas on which to communicate their brand. LG's 105-inch ULTRA HD display also offers the installation flexibility customers desire ? it can be oriented vertically in portrait mode or horizontally in landscape.

Joining the 105-inch class Ultra HD commercial display at the show is another notable display from LG's ULTRA HD digital signage lineup, the 98-inch class 98LS95A. This  Ultra HD digital signage display delivers  3840 x 2160 resolution in a 16:9 aspect ratio. The 98-inch Ultra HD display has a bezel width of just 14.6mm and may be mounted in portrait or landscape mode for optimal use in a wide range of commercial applications.

Both the 105-inch and 98-inch displays are equipped with a proprietary chip that optimizes  image quality. This sophisticated upscaling function takes SD, HD or Full HD content and renders it in sharp detail on the Ultra HD screen . Both displays can decode H.264 and HEVC H.265  at 30p or 60p. What's more, the TV seamlessly displays Ultra HD content from nearly any input source, including HDMI 2.0, USB and LAN.

Boasting an image with 8 million pixels and enhanced by LG's renowned IPS (In Plane Switching) panel technology, the Ultra HD displays provide the sharpest picture available on a large-screen display and the most immersive viewing experience in the industry. LG's IPS panel technology ensures optimal color saturation and contrast for off-angle viewing (both horizontal and vertical). IPS technology also provides a screen surface temperature tolerance of up to 230 degrees Fahrenheit (110 degrees Celsius), which helps alleviate a common problem with screens overheating and, as a result, suffering from permanent picture quality damage.

Information through Interaction

Also demonstrated at DSE 2014 is a highly responsive touch display from LG's Ultra HD lineup: The 84-inch class84WT70MS(PS) (84.0 inch diagonal) is an ideal solution for numerous interactive touch applications  -  wayfinding in public spaces, an educational platform in schools and museums, or as an advanced sales tool in retail stores. The 84WT70MS(PS) is one of the world's largest Ultra HD-based touch screen displays that can be mounted in landscape or portrait. 

LG's IR-Spread touch technology on the 84WT70MS(PS) provides smooth and accurate 10-point multi-touch interaction and gestures for a broad range of precise interactive needs and a more intuitive and predictable interactive touch experience. The image quality and integrity is protected with a specialized coating, which minimizes the visibility of fingerprints and smudges to keep the touch surface and on-screen images looking crystal-clear.

Cambium Networks Launches Sub-6 GHz PTP 650S For Small Cell Networks

- Compact form factor backhaul solution enables ease of use for street level small cell deployments -

ROLLING MEADOWS, Ill., Feb. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Cambium Networks(TM)( http://www.cambiumnetworks.com ), a global leading provider of wireless broadband solutions, today debuted PTP 650S( http://www.cambiumnetworks.com/products/ptp/ptp-650S ), a new sub-6 GHz point-to-point (PTP) wireless backhaul solution tailored for small cell networks. With a smaller form factor, PTP 650S reliably and securely handles modern network complexities in any deployment environment while addressing municipal regulations regarding the look and size of small cells mounted on streetlights, utility poles and buildings.

According to Infonetics' Small Cell and LTE Backhaul Strategies survey, respondents expected that by 2016, in-building and outdoor small cells are expected to handle 25 percent of all mobile traffic[1]. PTP 650S excels in small cell deployments in urban hot spot environments with high data traffic, as well as lower small-cell density installations in rural communities. By addressing the unique backhaul needs of the growing small cell market, PTP 650S is a prime addition to Cambium Networks' field-proven, reliable PTP portfolio.

This new wireless backhaul solution features the company's signature technologies and design that make deployment and return on investment equally swift:

    -- Flexible non-line-of-sight (NLOS) installations are made possible by 2x2 multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) and Dynamic Spectrum Optimization (DSO(TM)) technologies. With high spectral efficiency to combat RF and self-interference; immediate support for 4.9, 5.2, 5.4 and 5.8 GHz frequencies, and future support of 2.6 and 3.5 GHz; PTP 650S is exactly what small cell network architects need to confidently deploy in NLOS environments.

    -- Quick, cost-effective implementation is supported by small form factor, built-in alignment tools for easy installation, low power consumption and flexible management interfaces that allow service providers to plan, deploy, monitor and support their networks while keeping costs low. Once online, fast Adaptive Modulation (AMOD) analyzes changing field conditions, greatly increasing link reliability and efficiency.

    -- Support for 3G and 4G/LTE network timing standards (IEEE 1588v2 and Synchronous Ethernet) offers network operators the ability to meet the performance and security requirements of their current service level agreements, while also provisioning for the future expansion needs of their small cell networks.

    -- Scalable capacity is achieved with a simple software upgrade that increases each PTP link's capacity as needed from 125 Mbps (lite) to 250 Mbps (mid) to 450 Mbps (full).

    -- Reliability is assured with PTP 650S, as it is with all of Cambium Networks' products. PTP 650s was rigorously tested in extreme physical environments to ensure 99.999 percent availability. This equates to less than five minutes of downtime annually. Additionally, PTP 650S architecture optimizes available airside capacity, ensuring a high packet-per-second (PPS) rate.

In addition to small cell backhaul, PTP 650s is suited for video surveillance; for use in private networks installed for hospital, academic and hospitality industry campuses; and for deployment anywhere short-range NLOS links are required.

"Performance, reliability, scalability and agility are the cornerstones of all of our platforms. In PTP 650S, we have given all of these qualities a boost with built-in technologies: dynamic spectrum optimization (DSO), IEEE 1588v2, Synchronous Ethernet, and dual stack IPv4 and IPv6 support to name a few," said Scott Imhoff, vice president of product management, Cambium Networks. "With small cell networks continuing to proliferate and require additional support, in addition to the need for flexible platforms to suit global connectivity spanning industries and applications, the timing for PTP 650S's release couldn't be better."

PTP 650S is now available on every continent through Cambium Networks' distributors.

PTP 650, PMP 450 and ePMP(TM) will all be exhibited at Cambium Networks' booth (Hall 7, Stand #7B41) at Mobile World Congress, February 24-27, 2014.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Feb. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Cloud Technologies, Inc., (http://www.cloudtechinc.com) an information technology company serving small to mid-sized businesses, has developed a Backup & Disaster Recovery (BDR) Server that negates the impact of the CryptoLocker virus and other malware.

The Cryptolocker virus is a variant of ransomware that encrypts computer files including any files on company servers to which the computer is connected. Cryptolocker then demands victims provide payment within a 96-hour period in order to decrypt and recover files. Failure to pay the ransom results in complete loss of all encrypted files. After seeing two of its customers attacked by CryptoLocker, Cloud Technologies developed a solution to enable its business clients to better protect themselves.

Cloud Technologies' BDR Server sits to the side of production servers and workstations taking and storing a snapshot copy of the hard drive every fifteen minutes. This same backup is replicated offsite daily, providing a second level of protection. If a business computer or server is attacked by CryptoLocker, Cloud can restore data from the BDR from a period prior to infection, or can have a virtualized backup server available within minutes.

"Any business that has data worth retaining needs to utilize a BDR server to protect themselves, particularly if their work is time sensitive," said Jeff Freeman, vice president of IT for Cloud Technologies.

Cloud Technologies' BDR server captures all aspects of a business' servers, including systems, applications, configuration settings, services, and data. It backs up Microsoft SQL Server, Exchange, and SharePoint servers, as well as other critical application servers. In the event a business suffers a system failure, the BDR Server facilitates a data restore in minutes and can restore a system to the same or to different hardware, or to a virtual environment.

Additionally, the BDR Server is user-friendly, helping businesses to resume normal operations more expediently because users can quickly connect to any of the backup images available and search to recover a single file or folder. Or, they can restore an entire data volume from a backup image file.

"For now the payment of ransom to the attackers and the resulting decryption key appear to be working to unlock the hostage data, but who knows how long that will work or what techniques these criminals will advance to next," said Freeman. "It is important for businesses to stay educated and take proactive measures to protect data," he said.

Handbook 4  -  Business App for B2B Sales and Marketing Communications  -  Released in US Market

- Availability on All Major Tablet & Smartphone Platforms (iPad, iPhone, Android, Windows 8.1); New BookDrop Feature Enables Customer-to-customer Marketing -

TOKYO and CUPERTINO, Calif., Feb. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Infoteria America Corporation on February 12 announced the general availability of the company's Business App "Handbook 4" in the US market on a variety of Tablet and smartphone platforms - including iOS (iPad, iPhone), Android and Windows 8.1.

Tablet penetration and usage within the enterprise is growing at a phenomenal pace. Several factors - such as ease-of-use, high pixel-density screens, increasing use of video, and the expanding set of options in terms of size and portability - are triggering new types of business uses - especially in the area of sales and marketing communications.

"Well-designed business apps like Handbook 4 are helping companies harness this powerful trend," said Sachin Mithal, CEO of Infoteria America. "In the case of Handbook 4, by empowering sales and marketing professionals with new communication, presentation, and content marketing capabilities - helping corporate marketing and sales teams reach key marketing and sales goals."

"Our customer base of more than 100,000 paid users and 500 companies worldwide confirms the high value our customers are deriving from reliable business apps," said Auri Biswas, Director of Marketing at Infoteria America. "Business apps like Handbook are helping companies achieve specific business goals like accelerating the sales cycle, improving conversion rates, and improving customer satisfaction."

The flip side of this new power available to enterprises is the challenge of accommodating the BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) trend i.e. employee preferences for different devices and platforms (iPads / iPhones, Android, and Windows 8.1 tablets). With the non-stop improvements and changes to these platforms, companies trying to develop in-house business apps are facing serious challenges in terms of development costs, time, and access to quality engineering and design talent. An associated challenge is the expectation from today's departmental heads and business users of ease-of-use and productivity with minimal training or setup.

"Handbook 4 squarely addresses these critical enterprise needs by accommodating all the major tablet & smartphone platforms." said Yoshiyuki Kitahara, CTO of Infoteria Corporation. "Given Infoteria's core business and product strategy, we constantly monitor various platforms and deepen our knowledge of these technologies and UI / UX best practices. We are able to add value to our customers by reinvesting that growing body of knowledge into Handbook design and development - ensuring that a variety of content published & distributed via Handbook is presented smoothly and attractively on all major devices."

The notable new enhancement in version 4 is the innovative BookDrop feature which allows impromptu sharing of Handbooks in a face-to-face setting without requiring any user account setup. This feature helps Infoteria's customers realize the ultimate marketing goal of helping end-customers become advocates and evangelists. Sales staff, using the Handbook App on their tablets, can not only show prospective customers attractive sales presentations and marketing collateral - but also "leave behind" some of those marketing materials on the customers' tablets & smartphones - allowing those prospects and customers to share such materials with their friends and family. Contemporary research indicates that this is one of the most powerful forms of marketing in terms of credibility and reach.

Other key improvements incorporated into the latest version of Handbook encompass text search, ratings & surveys, and analytics. Plus enhancements to the enterprise-grade cloud backend that drives interoperability and fast, secure distribution. 

To help Infoteria's business customers experience the ease-of-use and power of Handbook, Infoteria America is offering a 30-day free trial (no credit card required) at https://handbookapp.net/signup/. For more information on Handbook - its key benefits and an overview of features, please visit: http://handbookapp.net/us/

About Handbook:
Handbook is a user-friendly business app available on all major mobile platforms (iPad, iPhone, Android, Windows 8.1 tablets). Sales and marketing professionals use the Handbook platform to create and present engaging and effective communications packages in the form of Handbooks. A powerful cloud backend takes care of automated and nearly-instantaneous distribution of these Handbooks to specified target audience groups (such as internal sales teams or external customer groups).

In addition to the Handbook App, the Handbook platform includes a cloud-based web application called Handbook Studio. Handbook Studio allows users to create Handbooks quickly and easily - by combining a variety of existing source materials - such as videos, images, PDFs, presentations, MS-Office documents, price lists / spreadsheets - with drag-and-drop ease from their local file system or a cloud storage service (like Google Docs or Dropbox).

One major business advantage of Handbook is that it does not require any special IT investment other than a low monthly subscription (cancellable any time). Plans start from as low as $6 per user per month. Volume discounted pricing is available for enterprises with higher numbers of users. More information on plans and pricing are available at http://handbookapp.net/us/pricing/

In terms of learning curve, both Handbook App and Handbook Studio have been designed to allow users to become productive with minimal effort and time.  Infoteria estimates 3 minutes for a Reader role (those who use the Handbook App on their tablets and smartphones to browse the distributed Handbooks); and about 15 minutes for the Editor role (those who put together the Handbooks). 

About Infoteria America Corporation and Group:
Infoteria America Corporation is the US subsidiary of Infoteria Corporation, which is headquartered in Tokyo, Japan. Infoteria Corporation is listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol 3853.

Founded in 1998 as an innovative software product company, Infoteria went public in 2007. Infoteria's middleware product Asteria has 47% market share in Japan.

Games2win Launches "Kursi Cricket"

MUMBAI, February 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

    Bat for Your Favorite Politician to Know India's Mood!

    Games2win announced the launch of "Kursi Cricket" - a unique mobile and online cricket
game that involves the current lineup of politicians vying to be India's next Prime
Minister!

    (Photo:
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140211/10088604 )

    Alok Kejriwal - Co-Founder and CEO of Games2win said, "Indians love to play cricket
and criticize politicians. So we thought of a simple, one tap game that combines both
emotions!"

    Kursi Cricket is a smooth, one tap cricket game that lets players bat for their
favorite politician and defeat the other politicians that are vying for the "Kursi", a la
the top job as far as politics goes. The game play is easy, yet challenging. The
animations showcase each politician in their element and makes for very enjoyable game
play.

    The soul of the game is the results screen. When the players are finally bowled out,
they are served a live scorecard of the total runs of the three politicians and their
national ranking. These scores immediately identify the winning politician (as far as
voter sentiment is concerned) and how competitive the 'game' (pun intended) really is!
This live, cloud-based scorecard is refreshed in real time and reveals the choice of the
nation at any moment!

    We believe that politics and politicians are ready for gamification (making games
around serious topics) and this is our humble contribution. We are not serving any ads in
the game and not charging for any in-app items. This is a pro-bono effort to make Indian
voters aware of their voting rights and to encourage them to vote (play) for their
preferred politician. We hope the politicians involved appreciate our effort and encourage
their supporters to play & demonstrate their popularity! Kursi Cricket is available online
[http://www.games2win.com/en/cricket-games/kursi-cricket-game.asp ] on games2win.com and
also on the Android Play Store
[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.com.games2win.kursicricket&hl=en ]
currently.

    Games2win (G2W) is one of the world's largest casual games businesses, operating
across a global footprint, leveraging its own IP. The business has clocked 40 million game
downloads across the iTunes, Android, Amazon and Windows mobile game platforms and is
famous for its #1 game in the world - Parking Frenzy. The Company entertains over 20
million monthly consumers and owns 800 proprietary, casual games.

See, Treat & Share: PetSafe to Introduce the Industry's First Social Sharing and Remote Treating System for Pets

PetSafe's SocialPet(TM) Camera & Treat Dispenser will be available on Feb. 15

KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Feb. 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- According to the American Pet Products Association (APPA), more than 54 percent of pets are left at home during the day while owners are at work or involved in extra-curricular activities. However, one company will soon be offering an innovative way for busy pet owners - and their Facebook friends - to check in with their pet from wherever they are.(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120322/CG75215LOGO)

PetSafe(®), an industry brand leader in the development of innovative pet behavioral, containment, lifestyle product solutions and services, has announced the launch of its SocialPet(TM) Camera & Treat Dispenser. Available Feb. 15, SocialPet is the only complete system that allows pet owners to remotely treat and socially share photos and videos of their pet via the SocialPet Facebook App.

According to Randy Boyd, CEO and founder of Radio Systems Corporation, makers of the PetSafe brand, the popularity of social networking and pet owners' desire to interact with their pets while away from home were the foundation for developing the innovative SocialPet system.

"Visiting social network sites is the No. 1 activity on the web," Boyd said. "As the leader in innovative pet products, we saw the opportunity to make busy pet owners' lives easier by developing the SocialPet system. We're excited for SocialPet to hit the market and can't wait to see how it improves the pet ownership experience."

SocialPet enables pet owners to see, treat and share their pet's best moments from anywhere. The SocialPet system includes a camera and treat dispenser that can be accessed anytime via a computer or smartphone through the SocialPet Facebook App. Pet owners and their friends can watch a live video stream of the pet, take and share photos with others, and give the pet his or her favorite treats all through the SocialPet Facebook App. SocialPet also allows pet parents to set certain permissions for friends and family, as well as a feeding schedule through the SocialPet Facebook App, so that their pet can only be treated during the times (or users) they select.

In addition to remote treating and sharing photos and videos of their pet through the SocialPet Facebook App, pet owners can also use SocialPet's live video stream feature to monitor their pet's behavior when they're not around. Pet owners may learn that their pet isn't truly housetrained or suffers from separation anxiety. The SocialPet system is also great for multiple pet households where pet owners may not know which pet is responsible for each action when they're not at home.

The SocialPet Camera & Treat Dispenser will be available to purchase online starting Saturday, Feb. 15 for $199 at http://store.petsafe.net/socialpet. Learn more about SocialPet and the results of initial product testing on PetSafe's blog, The Paw Print.

EPGL Developing Wearable Tech

Wearable Tech Predicted to Be as Large as the Smart Phone Revolution

IRVINE, Calif., Feb. 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- EP Global Communications, Inc., (OTC Ticker EPGL) announces that as of fourth quarter 2013, EPGL has focused 100% on development of smart wearable technology.  Because of recent developments and opportunities before the Company, EPGL has now established itself as an early player in the growing field.  "Leading industry insiders believe wearable smart technology will be as large as the smart phone revolution.

EV Group Unveils High-Volume-Manufacturing Photoresist Processing System For Logic And Memory Advanced Packaging Applications

EVG®150XT combines EV Group's expertise in lithography and XT Frame platform to enable industry's first HVM resist processing system for mid-end and back-end interconnect applications

ST. FLORIAN, Austria, Feb. 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- EV Group (EVG), a leading supplier of wafer bonding and lithography equipment for the MEMS, nanotechnology and semiconductor markets, today unveiled its most advanced 300-mm photoresist processing system for logic and memory high-volume manufacturing (HVM) -- the EVG150XT resist coating and developing system.  Leveraging EVG's XT Frame platform utilized across the spectrum of the company's industry-leading systems, the EVG150XT is optimized for ultra-high throughput and productivity -- bringing the company's expertise in lithography processing to HVM environments.  The EVG150XT is designed for processing resists, spin-on dielectrics and thick films for mid-end-of-line (MEOL) and back-end-of-line (BEOL) semiconductor applications, including through silicon via (TSV) formation, wafer bumping, redistribution layer and interposer manufacturing for 2.5 and 3D-IC packaging.

(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140211/SF62631)

As 2.5/3D packaging moves closer to production reality in the semiconductor industry in order to integrate increasing amounts of chip functionality in smaller form factors for mobile devices and other consumer electronic products, new manufacturing and cost requirements must be addressed across the wafer fabrication process--particularly in the MEOL and BEOL segments.  Smaller pitches, copper pillars, the formation of redistribution layers to enable chip-to-chip connections utilizing under bump metallization, and the connection of dies produced with different design-node processes, have led to tighter standards in process uniformity.  As the industry ramps to volume production on these devices, the wafer processing equipment used to manufacture these devices will require both enhanced throughput and processing capabilities.

The EVG150XT features nine process modules that can operate simultaneously for multi-parallel wafer processing.  Smart scheduling software for throughput-optimized handling sequences has also been incorporated, along with pumps and dispense systems tailored for thick film applications.  In addition, an in-line metrology module has been integrated into the EVG150XT that can detect a variety of process irregularities and defects to enable real-time process corrections to reduce defects, increase yields and lower production costs.  These and other software and hardware enhancements optimize the EVG150XT for high-volume manufacturing environments. 

"For the past 30 years, EV Group has built up significant process know-how in both lithography and HVM processing working closely with our customers and turning their feedback into new capabilities built into our next-generation products.  With our latest product introduction -- the EVG150XT -- we've successfully combined both areas of expertise to provide our customers with the industry's first true HVM resist processing system that can meet their most demanding requirements for mid-end and back-end-of-line applications," stated Paul Lindner, executive technology director at EV Group.

Media and analysts interested in learning more about EVG's latest developments in photoresist and lithography processing, as well as other high-volume manufacturing solutions, are invited to visit the company's booth #1264 in Hall C at the COEX Convention and Exhibitor Center in Seoul, Korea at the SEMICON Korea show on February 12-14.

About EV Group (EVG)
EV Group (EVG) is a leading supplier of equipment and process solutions for the manufacture of semiconductors, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), compound semiconductors, power devices and nanotechnology devices.  Key products include wafer bonding, thin-wafer processing, lithography/nanoimprint lithography (NIL) and metrology equipment, as well as photoresist coaters, cleaners and inspection systems.  Founded in 1980, EV Group services and supports an elaborate network of global customers and partners all over the world.  More information about EVG is available at http://www.EVGroup.com.
