AUGUSTA'S MIDDLEWARE POWERS NETWORK 2.0 FOR ENTERPRISE.Augusta Systems Inc., Morgantown, W. Va., provider of intelligent enterprise network technologies, has released EdgeFrontier(TM) v2.0, middleware Software that functions as a conversion or translation layer. It is also a consolidator and integrator. Custom-programmed middleware solutions have been developed for decades to enable one application to communicate with another that either runs on a different platform or comes from a for building and managing intelligent networks, systems and applications featuring data from sensors, actuators, wireless sensor networks “WSN” redirects here. For the metasyntax, see Wirth syntax notation. A wireless sensor network (WSN) is a wireless network consisting of spatially distributed autonomous devices using sensors to cooperatively monitor physical or environmental conditions, such as , RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) A data collection technology that uses electronic tags for storing data. The tag, also known as an "electronic label," "transponder" or "code plate," is made up of an RFID chip attached to an antenna. systems, imagery devices and other edge assets. EdgeFrontier v2.0 provides a powerful, easily configurable middleware solution that enables enterprises and systems integrators to build and manage intelligent networks for military operations This is a list of missions, operations, and projects. Missions in support of other missions are not listed independently. World War I ''See also List of military engagements of World War I
"EdgeFrontier middleware is a powerful addition to the network-centric enterprise," said Charlie Stuewe, General Manager of Crane Co.'s Wireless Monitoring Solutions (WMS WMS Warehouse Management System WMS Web Map Service (open geospatial consortium specification) WMS West Middle School (Rochester Hills, MI) WMS Workforce Management Software WMS Wechsler Memory Scale ) business unit, a leading provider of wireless sensor networks for industrial, commercial and government applications. "When installed on computing devices, EdgeFrontier enables those machines to easily support processing and correlation of data from wireless sensors see mote. , RFID systems, video cameras and other devices and systems -- including Crane WMS MicroObserver Unattended Ground Sensor Systems. EdgeFrontier enables an enterprise network to intelligently connect with and control sensors and devices that reside at the network's edge." EdgeFrontier provides users with a complete, remotely-configurable middleware solution for integration, processing, correlation, distribution and control throughout the network -- from the edge to the core. EdgeFrontier also acts as an edge application server and can be configured as an edge enterprise service bus, providing an abstraction layer Software that translates a high-level request into the low-level commands required to perform the operation. The most common abstraction layer is the programming interface (API) between an application and the operating system. to support processing and distribution of data without writing code. EdgeFrontier, along with Augusta Systems(R) SensorBridge(TM) and SensorPort(TM), are core building-block tools for today's Network 2.0-enabled enterprise. With the rapid growth of sensors, actuators and other devices and systems for security, monitoring, automation, asset tracking, and other applications, Network 2.0 approaches and technologies are critical for efficient and effective enterprise networks, with processing capabilities and intelligent functions not limited to centralized cen·tral·ize v. cen·tral·ized, cen·tral·iz·ing, cen·tral·iz·es v.tr. 1.

"Most enterprises lack the capacity to easily integrate intelligent information from the edge of the network to the core -- that all changes with Edge Frontier," said Patrick Esposito, president and chief operating officer Chief Operating Officer (COO) The officer of a firm responsible for day-to-day management, usually the president or an executive vice-president. of Augusta Systems. "With EdgeFrontier, an enterprise can keep its existing enterprise network infrastructure, cut out costly software development time and eliminate multiple middleware applications tied to specific systems. EdgeFrontier is the missing element in intelligent enterprise networks." About EdgeFrontier EdgeFrontier is middleware for building and managing intelligent networks, systems and applications featuring data from edge assets. EdgeFrontier is available for individual device installations. Substantial discounts are available for multi-user and original equipment manufacturer (OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and ) purchases.

Augusta Systems products enable collaboration and communication between enterprise networks and edge assets -- sensors, actuators, wireless sensor networks, RFID systems, imagery devices, and other edge-of-network systems and devices -- which have existed beyond the reach of these networks. With platforms for building and managing solutions featuring data from these edge assets, Augusta Systems provides simplified data integration, processing, correlation, and communication capabilities for Network 2.0-enabled enterprises. Augusta Systems technologies and integration services - including core products SensorBridge, EdgeFrontier, and SensorPort - support security, monitoring, automation, asset tracking, and other enterprise applications. These technologies reduce the total cost of ownership for intelligent enterprise networks and maximize return on investment for enterprise networks and edge assets. Through key partnerships, Augusta Systems also offers integrated monitoring and control products, including ThreatViewer(TM), which provides remote monitoring (protocol) remote monitoring - (RMON) A network management protocol that allows network information to be gathered at a single computer. Whereas SNMP gathers network data from a single type of Management Information Base (MIB), RMON 1 defines nine additional MIBs that provide a capabilities for industrial, military, and homeland security Noun 1.
