Agranat Systems and AMD Bring a Spring to Your Board; Agranat Systems announces EmWeb and EmStack availability for AMD's Net186 Evaluation Kit.CONCORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 26, 1999-- Agranat Systems, a provider of embedded Web technology for access and management of home, business and network appliances, today announced that it has furthered its technological relationship with Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :AMD (Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., Sunnyvale, CA, www.amd.com) A major manufacturer of semiconductor devices including x86-compatible CPUs, embedded processors, flash memories, programmable logic devices and networking chips. ). AMD is now including Agranat's flagship products, EmWeb and EmStack, in AMD's Net186 Evaluation Kit. Agranat's technology, together with the Net186 evaluation kit, allows companies evaluating the capabilities of AMD's microcontrollers to likewise demo Agranat's embedded Web technology. EmWeb, a fully compliant HTTP HTTP in full HyperText Transfer Protocol Standard application-level protocol used for exchanging files on the World Wide Web. HTTP runs on top of the TCP/IP protocol. 1.1 Web server enables the management of any microprocessor-based device via the Web. Complementing EmWeb in the AMD Net 186 Evaluation Kit is EmStack, Agranat's proprietary TCP/IP stack An implementation of the TCP/IP communications protocol. Network architectures designed in layers, such as TCP/IP, OSI and SNA, are called "stacks." See TCP/IP, OSI model and protocol stack. . EmWeb and EmStack's implementation results in a memory footprint Memory footprint refers to the amount of main memory that a program uses or references while running. This includes all sorts of active memory regions like code, static data sections (both initialized and uninitialized), heap, as well as all the stacks, plus memory required to hold of less than 50K for a fully featured server and stack, minimizing the impact on overall system performance. With EmWeb, EmStack and AMD's Net 186 Evaluation Kit, companies may design graphical user interfaces and deploy them in efficient, real-time, embedded Web servers. With the Net186 Evaluation Kit programmers and system developers are able to build firmware functionality onto a single board. By coupling EmWeb and EmStack, the Net186 evaluation kit offers management of products and devices through remote and real time access. "Placing EmWeb in our evaluation kit opens new application opportunities for the customer," said Aaron Feen, Product Marketing Manager at AMD. "Engineers are increasingly looking for Looking for In the context of general equities, this describing a buy interest in which a dealer is asked to offer stock, often involving a capital commitment. Antithesis of in touch with. more efficient ways to manage devices and embedded Web technology is the most advanced means available today." "The opportunity to test embedded Web technology at the microprocessor level lets OEMs create an enhanced technological foundation that will guide the product design," said Ian Agranat, president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Agranat Systems. "Having Web server capabilities built into a product infrastructure lets companies address access needs while reducing cost of goods and time-to-market."
