Jabra enhances enterprise voice generated communication with launch of Cortana-integrated headsets
Offers customers greater workplace functionality with Cortana-enabled headsets
LOWELL, Mass., Aug. 24. 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Audio and communications technology specialist Jabra is now offering customers access to Cortana, Microsoft's digital personal assistant. This is via integrated, Cortana-ready headsets, which offer high-quality audio with the voice-control functionality of Cortana, giving users easy access to all that Cortana has to offer.
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20130903/LA72151LOGO
Jabra headsets enabled for Cortana with voice are both wireless and wired, offering UC plug-and-play functionality. They are also optimized for Microsoft Skype for Business to enable customers to gain the full business potential of their collaboration solution.
-- Jabra Evolve(TM) Series: ideal for desk-centric workers, the Jabra
Evolve headset creates a complete concentration zone around the user in
a noisy, open office - enabling the user to stay focused on the job.
Headsets within the range are:
-- Jabra Evolve 80
-- Jabra Evolve 65
-- Jabra Evolve 40
-- Jabra Biz 2400 II: HD voice technology and an ultra noise-cancelling
microphone provide the highest degree of background noise elimination of
any Jabra headset
-- Jabra Motion UC: designed for mobile-centric workers, Jabra Motion is
ideal for comfortable all-day use and performs under any condition,
including scenarios with lots of background noise. Cortana, your
personal digital assistant, is designed to help you get things done
throughout your day across your devices, helping you with tasks such as
sending emails and scheduling events. Speech recognition and
conversational understanding are built into Cortana; these
functionalities add the ability to speed up commands and communication
with Cortana. Jabra's range of headsets make it easy for Cortana to hear
the user even in a noisy office environment.
Holger Reisinger, SVP, Jabra, comments: "Jabra has long recognized that audio has an important role to play in the workplace, whether through ambient noise, during phone calls or in meetings. The future of communication, inside and outside of the workplace, will center around voice. In the office, it will be focused on voice control and the productivity gains and seamless communication experience it can offer. Workplaces are already experiencing this to an extent, but to truly benefit, they must get their competencies right. Only if audio and voice are high quality can they stand up against the audio challenges the workplace presents."

Enhanced "Tilt-to-Scroll" Technology Can Make Scrolling 360-Degree Photos Easier on Your Phone
INNOVENTIONS awarded sixth US patent for its RotoView(TM) tilt scrolling for mobile devices
HOUSTON, Aug. 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- INNOVENTIONS, Inc. has been awarded US Patent 9,424,810 for its RotoView "tilt-to-scroll" technology for mobile phone displays. The new patent, "View Navigation Guidance System For Hand Held Devices With Display," covers RotoView's unique Scroll Controller technology that guides and controls the RotoView scrolling without traditional scroll bars seen on the edge of the display. The patent also offers a wide range of general applications for Heads Up Displays (HUD) with automatic color selections and expanded functionality.

"Developers are adding tilt-based scrolling to mobile devices and applications to enhance the user experience by sharing immersive views of the world around us," said Dr. David Y. Feinstein, president and CTO of INNOVENTIONS. "This makes RotoView technology very suitable for tilt-based scrolling in popular applications like viewing 360-degree panoramic photos and videos, where the user navigates highly magnified scenery in all directions."
RotoView is the original tilt-to-scroll technology for mobile displays found in smartphones and tablets. The first RotoView patent family has been cited as prior art in 412 US patents. RotoView apps, including RotoView Photo Viewer and RotoView PDF Reader, use the technology disclosed in the new patent to efficiently scroll or pan large images and documents.
RotoView is easy to implement in mobile devices that use today's gyroscope and accelerometer sensors. It offers an improved user experience by allowing fast and precise scrolling with one hand. The Scroll Controller allows users to know exactly which portion of the large 360-degree image is shown on the phone's screen, without the need to glance simultaneously at both the horizontal and vertical scroll bars.
INNOVENTIONS' RotoView technology portfolio now includes six US patents, one European patent, and extensive API software for Android and iOS developers. INNOVENTIONS is seeking strategic partnerships with major companies to expedite development and deployment of the technology.

Teleplan, DHL and Sky Deutschland Open a New European Distribution Center
AMSTERDAM, August 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
- The new facility follows the signing of a new five-year contract between DHL and
Sky Deutschland
- Teleplan to provide reverse supply chain services and solutions on site
- Distribution center creates 200 new jobs
Teleplan, DHL and Sky Deutschland today opened a new 13,600 sq. m. distribution and
reverse supply chain center at Panattoni Park Cheb, in the Czech Republic. Senior
executives from Sky Deutschland, DHL and Teleplan were all present at the ribbon-cutting
ceremony. The opening of the new center creates 200 new jobs.
Based on a new five-year contract between DHL and Sky Deutschland, DHL Supply Chain,
in cooperation with other partners, will provide standard storage services, inbound and
distribution for Sky Deutschland. The contract also covers reverse logistics and customer
service, which Teleplan will carry out, and value-added services such as packaging,
labelling and correspondence with customers.

a wide range of different hardware items such as set-top boxes, smartcards, hard drives,
and WLAN modules that are delivered by a parcel service to customer households, retail
partners, as well as hotels and sports bars in Germany and Austria.
"The convenient location on the Czech-German border will make distribution
significantly faster. Items outbound in the evening have to be at their destination the
next morning. For picking up urgent orders, in some cases we have at most one hour," says
Filip Budik, Managing Director, DHL Supply Chain Czech Republic and Hungary.
Teleplan will deliver high quality screening, objective automated testing and
refurbishing services directly in the warehouse in Cheb. "Our solutions can be provided
and managed remotely from anywhere and are no longer linked to Teleplan's own physical
footprint. Increasingly we are bringing our 'in hub' solutions to the premises of our
customers, forward logistics partners or any relevant other third party location and
demonstrate that we are the right partner to drive improvement and speed of processing
home entertainment devices," says Charles Stewardson, President, EMEA region at Teleplan.
"Over the last few years, Teleplan has distinguished itself with a high level of
innovation spirit and operating excellence. In combination with DHL's expertise as a
worldwide leader in logistics, we are well prepared to realize efficiency improvements
while taking the customer experience to another level at our new hub in Cheb. Furthermore,
we make a positive impact on the environment by reducing our carbon footprint," says Dr.
Sebastian Hauptmann, Executive Vice President Operations at Sky Deutschland.

Exegy Launches Market Data Capture and Replay Service

Exegy Launches Market Data Capture and Replay Service
ST. LOUIS, Aug. 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Exegy, Inc., a leading provider of managed services and low-latency technology for market data normalization and distribution, announced today the availability of Exegy Journal Replay - a fully managed service that enables high-precision capture and scaled replay of multiple market data feeds. The managed service addresses a growing need to accurately replicate the behavior of electronic trading systems under previous market conditions, as well as to demonstrate their capacity, speed, and stability in future market conditions with higher market data rates. "The capabilities of Exegy Journal Replay allow market participants to respond to competitive pressures to reduce latency and to improve execution quality, corporate mandates to bolster system stability and to lower operational risk, and regulatory requirements to prove the capacity and resiliency of trading systems," says chief executive officer James O'Donnell. "This offering is our response to a chorus of demand from our customers to enable precision testing of client applications and related client infrastructure that are driven by Exegy market data appliances in production environments globally," adds O'Donnell.
https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160823/400688LOGO
When combined with Exegy market data appliances in a testing environment, Exegy Journal Replay enables firms to drive electronic trading systems with the same normalized market data event streams that occur in the live market environment. This allows the complete trading system to be exercised, rather than relying on piecemeal testing of individual client applications or components. Testing scenarios may be precise reproductions of previous market conditions to analyze previous trading system behavior and performance. This capability is invaluable for agency execution businesses needing to demonstrate best execution to customers and regulators, as well as market making businesses seeking to optimize the performance of quoting applications. Testing scenarios also may be high-resolution simulations of stressful market conditions with increased market data rates. This allows firms to quantify the performance of trading systems under stress, to identify maximum system capacity, and to verify the behavior of the system when data rates exceed maximum capacity. "Even if a firm is not subject to regulations such as RegSCI that require ongoing certification of system capacity and resiliency, the competitive landscape and the disruptive consequences of trading system failures compel firms to achieve this level of sophistication in the development and testing of their trading systems," adds O'Donnell.
Exegy Journal Replay is enabled by a fully managed appliance that is deployed to a client data center and records raw market data packets from multiple real-time market data feeds supplied by the client. The standard appliance model provides storage for two weeks of contiguous raw data for typical combinations of feeds, such as all direct feeds for North American equities and commodities. The appliance assigns a timestamp to every received packet that is accurate to within 20 nanoseconds. The high-resolution timestamps allow the appliance to reproduce traffic patterns with high precision when replaying market data from multiple feeds. The appliance also supports replay scenarios that precisely scale the traffic patterns, slower or faster, relative to the recorded rate. "The ability to produce accurately scaled microbursts of raw market data while maintaining synchronization across multiple market data feeds is a differentiating feature of Exegy Journal Replay," says chief technology officer David Taylor. "Commodity data capture and replay tools are not capable of delivering the accuracy and capacity required to test mission-critical trading systems," adds Taylor.
Exegy Journal Replay is delivered as a managed service that includes monitoring and management of the appliance to ensure comprehensive recording of raw market data in the client's environment. In addition, Exegy Managed Services constructs replay scenarios from a user-specified set of feeds, time ranges, and scaled rates. An easy-to-use set of web utilities allows users to select, start, and stop replay scenarios on demand. A key feature of the managed service is the orchestration of replay scenarios with Exegy market data appliances at the head of the test environment. "Synchronizing the configuration and operational state of Exegy market data appliances with user-defined replay scenarios is a complex, but essential part of staging accurate reproductions of trading system behavior," says David Taylor. "It has always been Exegy's mission to deliver value and minimize complexity through our managed services, and Exegy Journal Replay is our newest example of that commitment," adds Taylor.
About Exegy, Inc.
Exegy provides best-of-breed technology and managed services for the normalization and distribution of real-time market data to a diverse set of élite firms in the financial services industry.

Exegy Launches Market Data Capture and Replay Service

Exegy Launches Market Data Capture and Replay Service
ST. LOUIS, Aug. 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Exegy, Inc., a leading provider of managed services and low-latency technology for market data normalization and distribution, announced today the availability of Exegy Journal Replay - a fully managed service that enables high-precision capture and scaled replay of multiple market data feeds. The managed service addresses a growing need to accurately replicate the behavior of electronic trading systems under previous market conditions, as well as to demonstrate their capacity, speed, and stability in future market conditions with higher market data rates. "The capabilities of Exegy Journal Replay allow market participants to respond to competitive pressures to reduce latency and to improve execution quality, corporate mandates to bolster system stability and to lower operational risk, and regulatory requirements to prove the capacity and resiliency of trading systems," says chief executive officer James O'Donnell. "This offering is our response to a chorus of demand from our customers to enable precision testing of client applications and related client infrastructure that are driven by Exegy market data appliances in production environments globally," adds O'Donnell.

When combined with Exegy market data appliances in a testing environment, Exegy Journal Replay enables firms to drive electronic trading systems with the same normalized market data event streams that occur in the live market environment. This allows the complete trading system to be exercised, rather than relying on piecemeal testing of individual client applications or components. Testing scenarios may be precise reproductions of previous market conditions to analyze previous trading system behavior and performance. This capability is invaluable for agency execution businesses needing to demonstrate best execution to customers and regulators, as well as market making businesses seeking to optimize the performance of quoting applications. Testing scenarios also may be high-resolution simulations of stressful market conditions with increased market data rates. This allows firms to quantify the performance of trading systems under stress, to identify maximum system capacity, and to verify the behavior of the system when data rates exceed maximum capacity. "Even if a firm is not subject to regulations such as RegSCI that require ongoing certification of system capacity and resiliency, the competitive landscape and the disruptive consequences of trading system failures compel firms to achieve this level of sophistication in the development and testing of their trading systems," adds O'Donnell.
Exegy Journal Replay is enabled by a fully managed appliance that is deployed to a client data center and records raw market data packets from multiple real-time market data feeds supplied by the client. The standard appliance model provides storage for two weeks of contiguous raw data for typical combinations of feeds, such as all direct feeds for North American equities and commodities. The appliance assigns a timestamp to every received packet that is accurate to within 20 nanoseconds. The high-resolution timestamps allow the appliance to reproduce traffic patterns with high precision when replaying market data from multiple feeds. The appliance also supports replay scenarios that precisely scale the traffic patterns, slower or faster, relative to the recorded rate. "The ability to produce accurately scaled microbursts of raw market data while maintaining synchronization across multiple market data feeds is a differentiating feature of Exegy Journal Replay," says chief technology officer David Taylor. "Commodity data capture and replay tools are not capable of delivering the accuracy and capacity required to test mission-critical trading systems," adds Taylor.
Exegy Journal Replay is delivered as a managed service that includes monitoring and management of the appliance to ensure comprehensive recording of raw market data in the client's environment. In addition, Exegy Managed Services constructs replay scenarios from a user-specified set of feeds, time ranges, and scaled rates. An easy-to-use set of web utilities allows users to select, start, and stop replay scenarios on demand. A key feature of the managed service is the orchestration of replay scenarios with Exegy market data appliances at the head of the test environment. "Synchronizing the configuration and operational state of Exegy market data appliances with user-defined replay scenarios is a complex, but essential part of staging accurate reproductions of trading system behavior," says David Taylor. "It has always been Exegy's mission to deliver value and minimize complexity through our managed services, and Exegy Journal Replay is our newest example of that commitment," adds Taylor.

FREMONT, Calif., Aug. 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- GammaTech, a major international manufacturer and supplier of innovative rugged notebooks and tablet computers, announced that it has made some significant updates to its popular multi-use DURABOOK SA14 rugged notebook computer. One area, however, that remains the same, the company stated, is the SA14's built-tough rugged design that has long been synonymous with the DURABOOK name.

In addition, IRIS-NoiseSweeper software has also been ported to the Tensilica Vision DSP to provide premium video quality and cleaner still-images. The software is targeted at image noise reduction for high-resolution still images. The technology features an automated noise profile estimation that reduces calibration needs and shortens development time. It operates in a single frame and eliminates any motion-blurring phenomena associated with multi-frame techniques. For more information on Irida Labs' technologies, visit http://www.iridalabs.gr/products.
The Tensilica family of imaging/vision DSPs was designed for the complex algorithms in imaging, video and computer vision applications including innovative multi-frame image capture, video pre- and post-processing, object and face recognition, low-light enhancement and many other complex tasks.
"Embedded vision and machine learning is becoming more and more popular in a number of different markets like mobile, automotive and surveillance. The wide adoption of embedded vision depends on the use of computationally complex algorithms in challenging low-power environments," said Vassilis Tsagaris, CEO of Irida Labs.

Charges through the air just as fast as being plugged in.
Using resonate magnetic waves, the Gryker Air Charge will recharge your Apple Watch through the air, just as fast as having it plugged in, and all while floating by magnetic levitation.
Design inspired by nature.
The charging puck is covered in leather with a polished tungsten counterweight to perfectly balance your Apple Watch while it's floating above a beautiful oak base.
Availability and Pricing
The Gryker Air Charge is only available through its Kickstarter campaign at http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gryker/air-charge

Launching Tom Clancy's The Division Pushed Analytics 'To Its Limits'

Launching Tom Clancy's The Division Pushed Analytics 'To Its Limits'
LONDON, August 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
For those living under a rock, this past March saw Ubisoft launch its long-awaited
open world online-only third-person shooter, Tom Clancy's The Division , on multiple
platforms. The game broke company records, including the highest number of first-day sales,
not only garnering strong reviews across the board but boosting the company's profits for
fiscal 2015-16. Leading up to launch, those involved in the game's data analytics were in
no doubt that the pressure would be on.
"The release of The Division was the biggest launch in Ubisoft's history. It took
maybe six months before launch to get everyone on the same page with regards to analytics
but it still proved to be a big challenge, especially when it came to our tracking
infrastructure. When we launched, our capacity was slowly reaching its limit so we
actually had to make a lot of decisions on the fly just to maintain our analytics
pipeline. It was a lot of work, but we did it!" says Alzbeta Kovacova, Massive
Entertainment's analytics manager.
"Almost every game company uses data these days, even if it is just following standard
business KPIs ," she tells Gaming IQ. "More directors and senior managers understand the
need for analytics and want to use it. Analytics can help to improve games for all their
players, inform development teams during the creation of new and better games, as well as
make marketing efforts much more efficient.
Kovacova insists that the key differentiator between success and failure for a game of
this scale - and within the game analytics world in general - is the people. However,
while the significance of data to any commercial product is on the rise, people can also
prove to be a hurdle.
In its annual effort to help those involved in this arena to come together and share
their lessons and experiences, the Game Analytics and Business Intelligence Forum will be
returning to London this September (20th - 22th), offering seminars from the likes of
Rovio, Spotify, King and Miniclip.
In an exclusive talk, Kovacova will also be offering deeper insight into Massive
Entertainment's launch of The Division at this forum.
"I hope the industry can learn something from my presentation," she says, "but I'm
also looking forward to hearing more about different challenges and solutions from the
other speakers on the panel."

VIZIO SmartCast(TM) App to Integrate Google Play Movies & TV Content Catalog
New Enhancements to VIZIO SmartCast Offers Faster Performance, Quick Start Mode and Other Expanded Capabilities to Make Streaming More Beautifully Simple
IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- VIZIO, Inc. announced today updates to its VIZIO SmartCast experience. Enhancements allow for expanded capabilities within the VIZIO SmartCast app, additional content offerings and more. The VIZIO SmartCast app allows users to control their VIZIO SmartCast devices from any room in the home and stream content from their mobile devices straight to the big screen. VIZIO SmartCast devices also feature Chromecast built-in, which lets users tap the cast button in popular Chromecast-enabled apps such as Netflix, VUDU, Hulu, Google Play Movies & TV, YouTube, HBO NOW and more to stream their favorite content to VIZIO SmartCast devices.
https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160822/400263
The newly enhanced VIZIO SmartCast app provides users a faster all-around content aggregation experience. From quicker load time for movies, TV shows, videos, music and more, to faster population of search results, enhanced VIZIO SmartCast app performance makes finding content easier than ever. Instead of jumping between apps, the VIZIO SmartCast app allows users to search and browse content first by genre across multiple apps at once, then select the app or source to play the content. This quicker response time is further enhanced by additional content offerings added to the app. Coming soon, Google Play Movies & TV will be fully integrated into the VIZIO SmartCast app, allowing users to easily browse Google Play's content catalog along with other integrated content catalogs all at the same time, for a seamless and faster search and discovery experience(2).
On-screen navigation has been improved via the recent recent firmware updates to VIZIO SmartCast displays, which now allow users to adjust settings, navigate apps and access menus and playback controls. The latest updates to the VIZIO SmartCast app include an Android widget, which allows for easy accessibility of quick control features like power, play, pause and volume control even when the user's VIZIO SmartCast tablet remote, or Android mobile device, is locked. On top of that, the control features themselves now boast an even faster response time, allowing for quicker device discovery and input switching. The newly added Quick Start mode enables consumers to turn on their SmartCast displays automatically over WiFi when a Cast session is initiated, without having to separately turn on the display. Once a user taps the Cast button from any Cast-enabled app, including favorites like Netflix, VUDU and Hulu, the VIZIO display will turn on, allowing consumers to stream their favorite content to the big screen.
"The VIZIO Smartcast ecosystem not only simplifies the entertainment experience by giving consumers one app that controls many devices, but it also lets users search and browse across content catalogs from multiple apps at once," said Matt McRae, Chief Technology Officer, VIZIO. "We're excited to announce that soon Google Play Movies & TV will be added to the VIZIO SmartCast app. Soon consumers can easily search Google Play's expansive library of movies and TV shows alongside selections from their other favorite apps. This process streamlines content discovery so consumers can easily find and tap to cast their choice to the big screen."
Google Play Movies & TV offers tens of thousands of new release movies, classic films and next day TV shows that consumers can rent or buy in HD or SD. VIZIO SmartCast users can watch their favorite shows anywhere, at home on their TV or display or on the go using their Android or iOS device. Consumers can even download and watch when they're not connected.
The VIZIO SmartCast app simplifies the entire whole-home entertainment experience for consumers, allowing them to transform their iOS or Android mobile devices into a powerful touchscreen remote. The app makes it incredibly convenient for consumers to search, discover, browse and cast their favorite movies, shows, songs and more to their VIZIO SmartCast P-Series or M-Series Ultra HD HDR Home Theater Displays or E-Series Home Theater Displays.
With Chromecast built into every VIZIO SmartCast display, sound bar and speaker, consumers can easily access thousands of mobile apps they already know and love. By simply tapping the Cast button, consumers can easily watch content go from their mobile screen to any VIZIO SmartCast or Cast-enabled device on their home WiFi network. And with casting over WiFi, users can still multi-task on their tablet remote or their own mobile device without interrupting the Cast session.

Caringo Brings the Benefits of Scale-Out Object Storage to NFS

Caringo Brings the Benefits of Scale-Out Object Storage to NFS
SwarmNFS eliminates storage and protocol silos to bring you complete data management at scale
AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Caringo today announced Caringo® SwarmNFS, the first lightweight file protocol converter to bring the benefits of scale-out object storage -- including built-in data protection, high-availability, and powerful metadata -- to NFSv4. Unlike cumbersome file gateways and file connectors, SwarmNFS is a stateless Linux® process that integrates directly with Caringo Swarm -- allowing mount points to be accessed across campus, across country or across the world. The patent-pending technology delivers a truly global namespace across NFSv4, S3, HDFS, and SCSP/HTTP, delivering data distribution and data management at scale without the high cost and complexity of legacy solutions.
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20120619/LA26635LOGO
The power behind SwarmNFS lies in the innovative patent-pending protocol conversion approach that streams data in parallel between native NFSv4 applications and Caringo Swarm scale-out storage. This eliminates the need for spooling and staging, significantly reducing the disk, CPU and RAM needed for native file support. Additionally, this approach eliminates the bottlenecks present in existing connector and gateway solutions. The result is a stateless process that can be rapidly deployed and requires a fraction of the hardware resources of a gateway.
"What Caringo has done with SwarmNFS is bring the ease of data distribution, retention, and accessibility of object storage within reach of any organization," said Scott Sinclair of ESG. "By seamlessly integrating one of the most pervasive file standards with their metadata approach and search, they have created an incredibly powerful tool chest for application developers to work with large amounts of data."
SwarmNFS enables new use cases for object storage. Organizations can use existing native NFS file-based applications without the need to customize them first. This allows users to reap the benefits of a limitless pool of scale-out storage with built-in data protection in areas including content distribution, video surveillance, research, big data, digital curation and document management.
Among the benefits of SwarmNFS are:
-- Improves productivity with data portability between NFSv4, S3, SCSP,
HTTP and HDFS protocols
-- Uses 80% less resources (compared to gateway and connector solutions)
with no single points of failure
-- Brings the power of metadata to files, eliminating the need for a
metadata database
-- Lowers Total Cost of Ownership of data distribution at scale with the
benefits of Swarm object storage
"Gateway products are really trying to mimic traditional file systems. That is a dead-end technology: expensive to build and maintain and it doesn't scale well," said Jonathan Ring, Caringo CEO and Co-Founder. "SwarmNFS provides native NFS throughput and a true universal address space so you can eliminate all caching and spooling. This is the most cost- and resource-efficient way to enable economical data distribution, management and universal access at scale for organizations."
SwarmNFS is available from Caringo or through Caringo partners. For additional information or to schedule a demo, interested parties can visit http://www.caringo.com/ or email info@caringo.com.

Among the benefits of SwarmNFS are:
-- Improves productivity with data portability between NFSv4, S3, SCSP,
HTTP and HDFS protocols
-- Uses 80% less resources (compared to gateway and connector solutions)
with no single points of failure
-- Brings the power of metadata to files, eliminating the need for a
metadata database
-- Lowers Total Cost of Ownership of data distribution at scale with the
benefits of Swarm object storage
"Gateway products are really trying to mimic traditional file systems. That is a dead-end technology: expensive to build and maintain and it doesn't scale well," said Jonathan Ring, Caringo CEO and Co-Founder. "SwarmNFS provides native NFS throughput and a true universal address space so you can eliminate all caching and spooling. This is the most cost- and resource-efficient way to enable economical data distribution, management and universal access at scale for organizations."
SwarmNFS is available from Caringo or through Caringo partners. For additional information or to schedule a demo, interested parties can visit http://www.caringo.com/ or email info@caringo.com.

IDT and IBM Develop High-Performance Computing Solution for Telecom Edge Computing Networks
IBM POWER8®-based Servers Connected by IDT® RapidIO Switches Deliver Optimized Low-Latency Compute Clusters for 5G, C-RAN, and Financial Applications
SAN JOSE, Calif., Aug. 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Integrated Device Technology, Inc. (IDT) (NASDAQ: IDTI) today announced a new high-performance computing solution for telecommunications "edge" networks that combines its RapidIO technology with IBM's POWER8-based servers. The computing cluster can be used at the edge of wireless 4G advanced and 5G networks for a variety of data-intensive applications including networked robotics control, network-assisted private and public transportation, and video analytics and caching.
https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20160822/400261
The computing cluster features four dual-socket IBM POWER8-based servers connected with IDT's RapidIO 10xN switch technology, which delivers 100 ns latency, 50 Gbps top-of-rack switching, along with IDT's advanced timing devices. The cluster is ideal for designs in 5G, C-RAN, mobile edge computing, high-performance computing, data analytics and financial trading applications, and can be scaled in a 42U rack to connect up to 76 POWER8 sockets with only 300 ns of switching latency.
This industry-first solution, built on OpenPOWER technology, is the result of work conducted by the Open Compute Project (OPC) HPC Project, which IDT co-chairs and which lays the foundation for the edge computing use case in the OpenPOWER Foundation.
"The 100 ns latency and energy efficiency of our 50 Gbps RapidIO silicon is ideal for connecting the IBM POWER8-based servers for edge applications," said Sean Fan, IDT's vice president and general manager of IDT's Computing and Communications Division. "The work with OpenPOWER technology has enabled this collaboration with IBM to advance 5G edge computing."
In edge computing, data and services are moved from their traditional centralized location to the edges of the network, enabling data management and analytics to occur at the data source for faster results.
"Taking an open and collaborative approach to developing solutions for edge computing with OpenPOWER technology is accelerating and strengthening the development efforts of our broader open community," said Calista Redmond, president of the OpenPOWER Foundation and director of OpenPOWER Global Alliances at IBM. "Completing this edge computing cluster with a combination of POWER8 servers and IDT RapidIO switching is foundational for solving the emerging analytics and machine control use cases at the 5G network edge."
The RapidIO switch appliance ports used in the edge computing cluster can run at 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 40 and 50 Gbps using IDT's 50 Gbps RXS2448 silicon, and can be tuned to optimize overall system power consumption, depending on application workload and edge node power budgets. Twelve-port 1U 19-inch solutions are available in production from StarBridge, Inc., while larger radix 50 Gbps per port switches from 48-96 ports can be ordered directly from Prodrive Technologies. For more information on IBM POWER8 servers, visit http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/power/. IDT RapidIO networking software and timing devices can be ordered at the IDT website.
IDT will deliver a presentation on the new edge computing solution at the Mobile Edge Computing Congress in Munich, Germany Sept. 21-22.

Cat® S60 Announced as the World's First Smartphone With Integrated Thermal Camera
BRISTOL, England, August 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Southwest Technology Solutions Ltd are pleased to announce the supply of the Cat S60;
the world's first smartphone with integrated thermal imaging, and the world's most
waterproof smartphone.
The Cat S60 includes an embedded thermal camera from FLIR, the global leader in
thermal imaging technology, allowing Cat S60 users to be the first in the world to use
their smartphones for a multitude of use cases, including: detecting heat loss around
windows and doors, spotting moisture and missing insulation, identifying over-heating
electrical appliances and circuitry, finding leaks in underfloor heating and seeing
through obscurants like smoke.
The thermal camera visualises heat that is invisible to the naked eye, highlighting
temperature contrasts. It can pick up heat and measure surface temperatures up to a
distance of around 30 metres, and see through obscurants such as smoke, enabling a huge
range of use cases for building professionals, utility workers, outdoor sports enthusiasts,
and emergency first responders to name but a few.
The Cat S60 is also waterproof to depths of up to 5 meters for one hour, allowing it
to be used to take video and pictures while underwater*.
*Only when unique lockdown switch is set to 5M.
"As an organisation that prides itself on searching for new innovative products that
can help our existing customers and find new customers, this Cat S60 phone has almost
endless possibilities. We have already provided this phone to builders, plumbers,
electricians and also the emergency services It allow use to differentiate ourselves when
discussing solutions with prospective clients," said Manuel Pearce, Director at Southwest
Technology Solutions Ltd.
"We work very closely with Bullitt Group to introduce this product to the UK
marketplace. An important event coming up in September is the Emergency Services Show at
Birmingham NEC where we will be working on the stand with them."
The cost of the phone retails at GBP529.99 but we can also incorporate it in a new
business mobile contract on EE, Vodafone, O2 or Gamma mobile networks.
