Siemens Unveils SOMATOM Definition Edge Single-source CT

System sets new standards for image quality, dose reduction and dual energy

CHICAGO, Nov. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- At the 97th Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), from November 27 to December 2 in Chicago, Siemens Healthcare (NYSE: SI) (Booth #822, East Building/Lakeside Center at McCormick Place, Hall D) is unveiling the SOMATOM® Definition Edge(1) - the first single-source CT to use Siemens recently developed Stellar Detector. In routine examinations, structures up to 0.3 mm are visible, and image sharpness may potentially be improved. Boasting a rotation speed of 0.28 seconds, the SOMATOM Definition Edge is Siemens fastest single-source CT scanner, acquiring up to 23 centimeters per second - which may enable a physician to perform a customary thorax-abdomen examination in approximately two seconds and potentially eliminate the need for patient breath-holding during a scan. Siemens also has developed a new Dual Energy mode for the SOMATOM Definition Edge. In Dual Energy images, two different tube voltages are generated to help enable recognition of different tissue types. This system release exemplifies how Siemens builds on innovation, such as dual-source CT, and brings these solutions to a broader audience at an attractive prince point, which is a goal of Siemens Agenda 2013.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20070904/SIEMENSLOGO )

The SOMATOM Definition Edge employs the new TrueSignal technology of the Stellar Detector, which for the first time integrates the electronic detector components into the photodiode. With the aid of TrueSignal technology, Stellar may significantly reduce electronic noise and potentially improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the images. To date, a spatial resolution of up to 0.33 mm has been possible with Siemens single-source CT scanners. However, in critical cases such as cardio-vascular examinations or in emergency diagnostics, every additional visible micrometer can be significant. The examination of adipose patients further illustrates how Stellar's signal processing may potentially open up new possibilities in clinical practice. An obese patient can attenuate the signal from the X-ray tube to such an extent that many CT systems can no longer generate images suitable for diagnostic purposes. Even where signals are weak, TrueSignal technology may enable the generation of images with contrast levels that the physician may be able to use for diagnostic purposes.

Increased speed in single-source CT

A major challenge in CT scanning involves maintaining good spatial resolution at high gantry rotation speeds. With patients who cannot remain still for extended periods, or with fast-moving organs such as the heart, the shortest possible scanning time minimizes image motion artifacts. For this reason, the SOMATOM Definition Edge features a newly developed gantry that requires just 0.28 seconds per rotation, enabling a very high spatial resolution of 142 ms. Additionally, the scanner allows a pitch of 1.7, equivalent to an acquisition speed of up to 23 centimeters per second.

Dose-optimized dual energy for single-source CT

Until now, Dual Energy examinations with single-source devices required the tube voltage to be changed several times during a single scan, which deteriorates image quality, as less than half the number of projections are available for each energy level. Since changing the voltage while the current is being modulated is also impossible, the current must be permanently set for the duration of the scan. This results in a dose level several times higher than is seen with a customary single-source scan.

Since dose reduction is a top priority for Siemens, the SOMATOM Definition Edge introduces a new scanning technique into single-source CT examinations: During a Dual Energy examination with the new Siemens CT scanner, two scans are performed in succession with different energy levels, with each scan using only about half the dose applied in normal mode. Together, the two scans deliver the original dose required. Also, since the voltage in each scan is fixed, all dose-reducing methods can be used. Of particular note is Care Dose4D, a fully automatic radiation exposure control system that adjusts the dose in real time according to the area of the body being scanned; Care Dose4D is therefore capable of reducing overall dose levels. The SOMATOM Definition Edge also uses SAFIRE (Sinogram Affirmed Iterative Reconstruction) - a rapid iterative reconstruction method for CT data that may also help reduce dose levels. Thus, Dual Energy images may be generated using a single-source system without exposing the patient to unnecessarily high radiation levels.

Some of the products/features mentioned here are not commercially available in all countries. Due to regulatory reasons, the future availability in any country cannot be guaranteed. Further details are available from the local Siemens organizations.

Launched by Siemens Healthcare Sector in November 2011, Agenda 2013 is a two-year global initiative to further strengthen the Healthcare Sector's innovative power and competitiveness. Specific measures will be implemented in four fields of action: Innovation, Competitiveness, Regional Footprint, and People Development.

Siemens offers its customers products and solutions for the entire range of patient care from a single source - from prevention and early detection to diagnosis, and on to treatment and aftercare. By optimizing clinical workflows for the most common diseases, Siemens also makes healthcare faster, better and more cost-effective. Siemens Healthcare employs some 51,000 employees worldwide and operates around the world. In fiscal year 2011 (to September 30), the Sector posted revenue of 12.5 billion euros and profit of around 1.3 billion euros.

SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- ADLINK Technology, Inc., a leading global provider of ruggedized embedded products, announces the release of its latest Ampro by ADLINK(TM) Extreme Rugged(TM) COM Express® module, the Express-HRR for mobile applications running in harsh environments. The Ampro by ADLINK(TM) Express-HRR is a COM Express Type 6 module based on the quad/dual-core 2nd Generation Intel® Core(TM) i7 processor and Mobile Intel® QM67 Express Chipset.  Following ADLINK's Rugged By Design methodology, the Express-HRR is ideal for use in environments prone to severe shock, vibration, humidity, and extended temperature ranges.

"The strength of COM Express has always been its flexibility and modularity," said Jeff Munch, CTO of ADLINK Technology and chair of the COM Express COM.0 R2.1 Subcommittee. "We see our digital signage, transportation, and military customers building industry-specific applications powered by our COM Express modules, like the Extreme Rugged Express-HRR. Delivering an effective, standards-based product that supports vendor interoperability gives our customers many more solution options than would a non-standard COM Express design."

The Ampro by ADLINK Express-HRR is a modular, power efficient solution for mobile applications running in space constrained, extreme rugged environments. The Express-HRR is compatible with the COM Express COM.0 Revision 2.0 Type 6 pinout, which is based on the popular Type 2 pinout, but with legacy functions replaced by Digital Display Interfaces (DDI), additional PCI Express lanes, and reserved pins for future technologies. The new Type 6 pinout also supports the SPI Interface, which was unavailable in COM.0 Rev. 1.0.

The Ampro by ADLINK Express-HRR is powered by a quad- or dual-core 2nd Generation Intel® Core(TM) i7 processor and offers up to 16GB ECC 1333MHz DDR3 memory in two SODIMM sockets; three DDIs for DisplayPort/HDMI/DVI/SDVO; eight PCIe x1 and one PCIe x16 (Gen2) for graphics (or general purpose x8/4/1); as well as two SATA 6 Gb/s, two SATA 3 Gb/s, Gigabit Ethernet, and eight USB 2.0 interfaces. The Express-HRR is validated for reliable performance in extended temperatures ranging from ?40 degrees C to +85 degrees C and features a 50% thicker printed circuit board (PCB) for high vibration tolerance.

ADLINK Technology's Extreme Rugged modules, boards, and systems are designed for harsh environments from the ground up. Robust test methods, including Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT), ensure optimal product design phases and meet stringent requirements, such as extended temperature range, MIL-STD, shock and vibration, and long-term reliability.

ResearchMoz: Global LTE Industry Landscape: Adoption, Applications, Deployments and Subscriptions by Region, Country, Spectrum and Operator 2011 - 2015

ALBANY, New York, November 28, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

    New Report Added in ResearchMoz Reports Database Global LTE Industry Landscape:
Adoption, Applications, Deployments and Subscriptions by Region, Country, Spectrum and
Operator 2011 - 2015
[http://www.researchmoz.com/global-lte-industry-landscape-adoption-applications-deployments-and-subscriptions-by-region-country-spectrum-and-operator-2011-2015-report.html ]
Published by Mind Commerce
[http://www.researchmoz.com/publisher/mind-commerce-publishing-4.html ].

    While LTE adoption is moving at a much quicker pace than initial analyst expectations,
a number of hurdles still exist that undermine the early adoption of LTE by many
countries. Firstly the limitation of the frequency spectrum presents a major setback for
many network operators, as majority of the spectrum bands suitable for LTE are yet to be
fragmented in many regions. The 800 MHz 'digital dividend' band covered primarily by
television broadcasters, in particular, has caused setbacks for many countries in Western
Europe, a region where LTE is financially feasible. Furthermore the requirements for
initially high investments and economies of small scale production have challenged early
adoptions for most developing countries in the Asia Pacific, Africa and Latin America
regions. Nonetheless, LTE's distinct long term advantages such as high data rates,
capacity enhancement and OPEX reduction are likely to drive large scale adoption in a
majority of countries worldwide by 2015.

[http://www.researchmoz.com/global-lte-industry-landscape-adoption-applications-deployments-and-subscriptions-by-region-country-spectrum-and-operator-2011-2015-report.html ]
.
Firstly the key market drivers and barriers are discussed in comprehensive detail. This is
followed by a brief overview of LTE technology. The report then discusses some key
applications of the LTE standard including HD Video Streaming, Online Gaming, PTT
communications, supplementary voice capacity, M2M communication and public safety
applications. This is followed by a detailed analysis of LTE's feasibility, potential
success, current deployments, subscriptions from a global and as well as a regional
perspective, with a particular emphasis on country and operator level market share,
operator strategies and regional spectrum adoption strategies. Presented in the end are
detailed subscription, market share and spectrum adoption forecasts for LTE from 2011 to
2015 on a country and operator wide basis, based on a comprehensive survey of worldwide
operators and regulatory authorities. The forecasts are complimented by a review of
regulatory activities, spectrum availability and strategies, and a list of current and

Tasktop Technologies New Sync 2.0 Provides ALM Architecture Mapping and Application Lifecycle Linking Via OSLC

Tasktop continues to bring order and increased productivity from disparate and disconnected Agile ALM tool stacks within enterprise IT organizations

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Tasktop Technologies (http://www.tasktop.com), creators of Eclipse Mylyn and a global leader in ALM integration and developer tools, today announced Tasktop Sync 2.0, the latest version of its Task Federation(TM) platform  that allows IT organizations to synchronize existing ALM servers from multiple vendors and open source projects. Tasktop Sync 2.0 makes it even easier for administrators to manage their ALM synchronizations through powerful visual tools and extends integration support via change management artifact linking via the Open Services for Lifecycle Management (OSLC) interoperability protocols.

"Complex sourcing has become the norm for most companies - including off-shoring and open source - and deployment across a multitude of platforms, such as mobile, embedded, cloud and on-premise, drives software development challenges," said Melinda Ballou, program director for IDC's Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) service. "In this context, lack of coordination across lifecycle management phases and automation undermines business innovation and agility. Companies urgently need ways to effectively connect a broad range of lifecycle tools to enable visibility, metrics and control."

Tasktop Sync is built on the industry-standard Eclipse Mylyn ALM interoperability framework to provide real-time synchronization, automatic and configurable conflict resolution, and support for more than two dozen ALM tools. It unifies heterogeneous ALM stacks by allowing developers, testers, business analysts and managers to work within their best-of-breed tools of choice, while automatically maintaining traceability across ALM artifacts. Built on the company's Task Federation(TM) technology, Tasktop Sync brings task federation to ALM servers, by providing the only real-time, bi-directional and fully automated synchronization between ALM servers. The company's Tasktop Dev product line supports Tasktop Sync by federating tasks and other ALM artifacts on the developer's Eclipse and Visual Studio desktops.

"Medium and large organizations' ALM stacks have become so diverse and disconnected that the lack of traceability and cross-stakeholder collaboration has become the bottleneck of large-scale software delivery," said Mik Kersten, CEO of Tasktop and creator of the open source Eclipse Mylyn project. "Tasktop has spearheaded a new approach to connecting stakeholders in the application lifecycle, making it possible to capture an organization's ALM architecture in a single tool and deliver real-time connectivity and traceability across a wide variety of open source, commercial and legacy ALM systems." (To read Mik Kersten's blog post on this announcement please visit: (http://tasktop.com/blog/news/tasktop-sync-2-0-released)

Tasktop Sync 2.0 includes several innovations for connecting ALM stacks and stakeholders. It provides new visual tools that allow ALM architects and administrators to connect to ALM repositories, conduct introspective analysis of repository schemas and intelligently connect previously disconnected tools via ALM artifact mappings. In addition to artifact synchronization, Tasktop Sync 2.0 provides a new software lifecycle artifact linking facility built on the OSLC ALM interoperability protocols to serve as a broker for linking ALM artifacts.

Based on Tasktop's continued collaboration with IBM to define the OSLC protocols, Tasktop Sync 2.0 provides OSLC-based REST API access to more than 20 Tasktop Certified(TM) Mylyn connectors as well as dozens of other community-driven or in-house Mylyn connectors.  For example, organization using IBM Collaborative Lifecycle Management (CLM) tools in the ALM stack, such as Rational Team Concert and Rational Requirements Composer, can now link with artifacts from a broad range of third-party and open-source ALM tools, such as HP ALM and Quality Center, Atlassian JIRA and Mozilla Bugzilla. OSLC linking extends Tasktop Sync's synchronization facilities to support live connectivity and embedding of ALM artifacts in a similar way that social networking tools can embed each other's feeds (e.g., Twitter within Facebook).

New Features in Tasktop Sync 2.0 include:

    --  For IBM CLM users, full support for IBM Rational Team Concert (RTC)
        synchronization rules and mappings, allowing administrators to update
        mappings within RTC.
    --  Groovy-based scripting support for complex field transformations.
    --  Bi-directional synchronization of task associations, ALM artifact
        hierarchies, and complex fields.
    --  Unlimited mappings and repositories to connect large-scale ALM stacks
        with numerous servers and tools.
    --  Synchronization support for all common ALM artifacts, including defects,
        tasks, work items, test summaries and requirements.
    --  Full support for custom fields, rich text and wiki transformations,
        attachments and user mappings.
    --  Fine-grained and automated conflict resolution and handling.
    --  Visual editor for configuring synchronization mappings.
    --  Sync Quick start wizard to dramatically reduce the time to set up the
        first synchronization.
In addition, Tasktop announced the availability of Tasktop Dev 2.2 that brings new connectivity for developers using HP ALM and Quality Center. Tasktop Dev 2.2 builds on HP's Application Lifecycle Intelligence (ALI) feature to provide instant workspace provisioning for developers using Eclipse. Now, developers can simply connect to a release in HP ALM, and Tasktop's Task Federation facilities load into the workspace the SCM and Continuous Integration (CI) artifacts needed to work on the release, for example, source code from Subversion or builds from Hudson/Jenkins. Tasktop Dev 2.2 also extends HP ALI traceability automation to ClearCase.

Availability

Tasktop Sync 2.0 and Tasktop Dev 2.2 are both available for download tomorrow. Tasktop Sync is offered through perpetual licenses with annual support and maintenance, or annual subscriptions. As a limited-time introductory offer, Tasktop Sync is available as a bundle with Tasktop Dev (Enterprise Edition) for $199 per user, per year. More information is available at (http://tasktop.com/sync).

About Tasktop Technologies

Tasktop Technologies aims to transform the productivity of software delivery by unifying Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) and empowering developers with task-focused tools. Tasktop invented the task-focused interface and created the popular Eclipse Mylyn project, which transformed the developer's IDE experience to center around ALM tool-based collaboration. Building on top of Mylyn, Tasktop has been unifying the ALM landscape with its broad ecosystem of ALM partnerships that connect disparate tools from leading Agile, enterprise ALM and open source offerings. Tasktop's Task Federation(TM) technology builds on this ecosystem to unify heterogeneous ALM stacks by allowing developers, testers and managers to work within their best-of-breed tools of choice, while automatically maintaining traceability and visibility across ALM artifacts. The company's Tasktop Sync provides the only real-time bidirectional and fully automated synchronization between ALM servers. Tasktop Dev is the developer-centric ALM interface for the Eclipse and Visual Studio IDEs, making it dramatically easier for developers to work and collaborate, while keeping ALM tools up-to-date with development activity.

Accenture and AT&T Launch Medical Imaging Solution

Helps Hospitals Access Medical Images and Doctors Collaborate

CHICAGO, Nov. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Accenture (NYSE: ACN) and AT&T* have launched a new medical imaging solution that will enhance the capabilities of health professionals and radiologists to electronically share, review and store medical images, such as X-rays and CT or MRI scans, through AT&T technologies.

The Accenture Medical Imaging Solution, enabled by AT&T, can help medical professionals review patient images almost instantly, allow radiologists to see more patients and improve long-term technology costs and profitability. The solution can also enable national hospital networks to centrally manage medical images and collaborate efficiently with other institutions, physicians and radiologists.

The Accenture Medical Imaging Solution will be offered to U.S. hospitals and support the following capabilities:

    --  Long-Term Image Management - The AT&T Medical Imaging and Information
        Management solution, a vendor-neutral, cloud-based service, helps
        providers to store, access, view and share patient medical images from
        virtually anywhere over a highly-secure infrastructure. The
        pay-as-you-go storage pricing helps providers to store medical images
        easily and avoid costly capital investment in storage infrastructure.
    --  Teleradiology Exchange - The Accenture exchange will help to match
        supply and demand of radiology facilities and services. This can provide
        community-based hospitals with access to radiology services from medical
        centers, enabled by AT&T's network and cloud hosting capabilities.
    --  Workflow Analysis and Enablement - The Accenture benefit assessment and
        optimization analysis is a process that helps hospitals and other care
        providers connected by this solution to share their capacity for storing
        medical images and information. The offer includes features that can
        help hospitals efficiently manage radiology services.

"Access to an accurate, cost-effective diagnosis will significantly improve all aspects of health delivery," said Derek Danois, who leads medical imaging for Accenture Health. "Healthcare IT is an integral link in connecting clinical decisions and enabling an insight driven healthcare system."

"Accenture's systems integration experience coupled with AT&T's cloud-based technologies means hospitals can have virtually real-time access to medical images while reducing healthcare costs," said Randall Porter, assistant vice president, AT&T ForHealth.

Medical imaging management is one of the health industry's biggest challenges, and providers increasingly are turning to cloud-based solutions. Roughly 73 percent of healthcare organizations plan to shift imaging data storage to the cloud, in some capacity, while 32 percent actively use some form of cloud solutions today, according to an Accenture study. The shift from analog to digital images has resulted in exponential growth in the amount of data that must be stored.

    The 2011 study has 971 pages and 255 tables and figures. Worldwide markets are poised
to achieve significant growth as globally integrated enterprises worldwide move to
implement more cost efficient IT systems. Transaction process and Internet workload
computer processing delivery modalities depend on the efficiencies of scale achievable
using cloud computing.

    Virtualization is the fundamental aspect of cloud computing. Virtualization permits
enterprises to achieve modernization of IT by consolidating workloads onto fewer platforms
and to optimize the management of those workloads with automated process. The aim of
computer virtualization is to increase the utilization of systems in the data center and
at the line of business.

    Most workloads being virtualized are the Microsoft applications used in the data
center. Scale out Web applications, with each application located on a separate server are
being consolidated at a rapid pace. Each application is being packaged as an image that
runs on a larger server, with 10 to 15 images per server being achieved for consolidation
in the distributed platform environments, and 100 to 500 images per IFL being achieved on
the mainframe Linux class servers.

    Cloud computing has three virtualization aspects: Software as a Service (SaaS),
Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Business software as
a service SaaS applications and cloud computing models have matured and adoption has
become an issue for every IT department. These models are offered as solutions targeted
top different types of application delivery. These solutions all adapt to virtualized
environments.

    Microsoft solutions are being virtualized to increase the utilization and density of
server processing. VMware a virtualization solution commonly used. It facilitates the
creation of virtual machines on the Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2003
operating systems, creating multiple images of single servers on a larger server. Server
virtualization creates economies for running the data center.

    Virtual machines are created and managed through a VMware or tother web-based
interface. A utility is used to mount multiple server images on a single more powerful
server, consolidating workloads and saving hardware costs. Running Linux In Virtual
Machines IBM z/VM offers the ability to run Linux in virtual machines on IBM System z. IT
needs to run Linux in virtual machines for enterprise computing. Linux in virtual images
is evolving rapidly. Data centers have to meet ever increasing demands with flat budgets.
IBM System z delivers a unique hybrid computing model.

    IBM zEnterprise 196 allows data centers to optimize workload deployment on best fit
technologies with a common management infrastructure. It works for both mainframe and
distributed system resources. zLinux is positioned to drive down overall costs. This model
integrates data serving and analytics for actionable insight. IBM zEnterprise 196 is
positioned for use by the line of business. It enables fast and flexible delivery of new
services to drive innovation. z/VM works with open source operating systems, Linux, on the
mainframe. Within the z/VM environment, Linux images benefit from the ability to share
hardware and software resources and use internal high-speed communications.

    According to Susan Eustis, "Customers consolidating on System z virtualized systems
are benefiting from the reliability, availability and serviceability of IBM System z
servers. z/VM offers platforms for consolidating select UNIX(TM), Windows(TM), and Linux
workloads on a single physical server."

    Virtualization software for a cloud service market forecasts indicate that markets at
$5.8 billion in 2010 are anticipated to reach $16 billion by 2017.

Revolutionary Word-of-Mouth App Marketing Tool to Launch at AppsWorld Europe

LONDON, November 28, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

    Pay-per Results Model Set to Appeal to Developers

    buzzdoes, an app marketing tool developer, will unveil its flagship
viral app marketing product at AppsWorld Europe
[http://www.apps-world.net/europe ].

    Designed to help app developers get users' attention, buzzdoes is a
reward-based viral distribution add-on that encourages people to recommend
apps to others, turning users into apps distributors.

    Assaf Kolirin, buzzdoes founder and CEO, comments, "With more than
1,000,000 mobile applications currently available and over 60,000 new ones
developed every month, the apps market is overcrowded and constantly
growing. Existing apps marketing methods are either expensive or
inefficient, and developers need powerful and cost effective ways to
distribute their apps. buzzdoes allows them to penetrate the app market and
increase exposure through word-of mouth marketing, the most effective and
reliable way to promote buying decisions."

    Using the buzzdoes add-on, users can introduce the applications to many
new potential customers and are rewarded for every download that occurs as a
result of their recommendation. This way, buzzdoes guarantees developers
profitable market penetration and promotion through a risk-free,
pay-per-success financial model.

    buzzdoes integration for app developers requires only a simple drag and
drop operation and a 2-minute assimilation. User operation is made easy
through a single click on the buzzdoes button, automated contact suggestion
and transparent application distribution.

    Assaf Kolirin, continues: "I know the marketing challenges facing
developers from my personal experience as an app developer in the past. I
have learned how competitive it is and have therefore created an efficient
solution for app exposure and distribution. Word-of-mouth viral marketing
which has proved to be successful in other tools like gmail or million
dollar homepage, should be equally successful when applied to app marketing.
I believe it brings a unique and cost-effective way for app developers to
gain more users."

    As a launch promotion at AppsWorld, the first 100 registrations at the
buzzdoes stand will get a $100 credit on their buzzdoes account.

    Buzzdoes will be exhibiting on stand 73 at Appsworld Europe.
