Blue Wave Systems Launches New Release of FACT Telecom Application Management Software.Business Editors & High-Tech Writers CARROLLTON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 13, 2000 New Release to Support Windows 2000 and Solaris 2.8 64 Bit Hosts Also Enables Migration to Higher Density ComStruct(TM) Platforms Blue Wave Systems Inc. (Nasdaq:BWSI), a leading supplier of communications processing solutions for the telecom infrastructure, has launched a major new release of its FACT(TM) integrated subsystem A unit or device that is part of a larger system. For example, a disk subsystem is a part of a computer system. A bus is a part of the computer. A subsystem usually refers to hardware, but it may be used to describe software. development tool and management environment. This is the first version to support Windows 2000 and Solaris 2.8 64 bit host operating systems Operating systems can be categorized by technology, ownership, licensing, working state, usage, and by many other characteristics. In practice, many of these groupings may overlap. . This new release of FACT also supports the ComStruct(TM) CPCI/C6402 communications processing platform, which will enable customers that have developed applications using Blue Wave's ComStruct CPCI/C6400 platform and FACT to take advantage of the significantly improved performance that is possible by migrating to the company's higher density ComStruct CPCI/C6402. FACT provides a comprehensive software environment for managing DSP (1) (Digital Signal Processor) A special-purpose CPU used for digital signal processing applications (see definition #2 below). It provides ultra-fast instruction sequences, such as shift and add, and multiply and add, which are commonly used in math-intensive resources, enabling developers to harness their power without the need to program the on-board On board usually means to be traveling on some vehicle. For example, Baby On Board. Compare with overboard. Metaphorically, the term on-board is often used to refer to some piece of technology that is integrated in a moving vehicle, for example: TMS Test Match Special (sports - cricket) TMS Texas Motor Speedway TMS Transportation Management System TMS Toyota Motor Sales 320(TM) DSP Algorithm Standard. The new version of FACT is available immediately. "As telecom infrastructure developers are demanding higher density carrier-class solutions to meet the needs of their customers, we are delivering on our promise to enable our telecom customers to take advantage of the latest DSP technology without having to significantly change their application," said Karl Wale wale n. A mark raised on the skin, as by a whip; a weal or welt. v. To raise marks on the skin, as by whipping. , product manager for Blue Wave Systems. "For example, the ComStruct CPCI/C6402 can provide the processing power for over 200 channels of G.729A standard voice codec Same as speech codec. -- more than twice the 80 plus channels that could be achieved using the ComStruct CPCI/C6400. Using FACT to manage the hardware migration puts higher density solutions just a few mouse clicks away for most developers." Blue Wave Systems' ComStruct is a set of modular and scalable communications processing building blocks that includes hardware, software and DSP resources. ComStruct enables telecom infrastructure equipment manufacturers to develop, test and deploy carrier-class wireless and wireline technology for applications ranging from 3G wireless to Voice over IP.

Digital Signal Processing - (DSP) Computer manipulation of analog signals (commonly sound or image) which have been converted to digital form (sampled). (DSP) subsystems used in telecommunication telecommunication Communication between parties at a distance from one another. Modern telecommunication systems—capable of transmitting telephone, fax, data, radio, or television signals—can transmit large volumes of information over long distances. infrastructure equipment, such as voice over packet (VoIP) gateways, digital wireless communications wireless communications System using radio-frequency, infrared, microwave, or other types of electromagnetic or acoustic waves in place of wires, cables, or fibre optics to transmit signals or data. and intelligent peripherals. The ComStruct(TM) line of telecom infrastructure communication processing subsystems was launched in January 1999. At the heart of the ComStruct(TM) line is the company's FACT(TM) software (Framework Architecture for Communication Technologies), which enables the DSP subsystem to be rapidly and effectively deployed in a variety of carrier class telecom applications. Blue Wave Systems has been a market leader in DSP board-level products since 1983. For additional information, please visit our company's Web site at www.bluews.com.
