Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :CCUR CCUR Center for Crops Utilization Research ), a leading provider of real-time computer systems and software for mission-critical applications, today announced the availability of ruggedized, mobile versions of its popular real-time Linux operating system on ImaGen visual servers. Utilizing NextCom's FleXtreme COTS technology, the solutions will address mobile image generation requirements in simulation and training, modeling and process control applications. NextCom, LLC (Logical Link Control) See "LANs" under data link protocol. LLC - Logical Link Control is a leading manufacturer of high-performance, small footprint, rugged and mobile computing solutions. ImaGen visual servers run Concurrent's powerful, enhanced real-time Linux distributions -- RedHawk Linux, (compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux Red Hat Enterprise Linux (often abbreviated to RHEL) is a Linux distribution produced by Red Hat and targeted toward the commercial market, including mainframes. Red Hat commits to supporting each version of RHEL for 7 years after its release. ) and Concurrent Real-Time Extensions Powered by SUSE Linux. With Concurrent's partnership with NextCom, ImaGen users can now take advantage of NextCom's rugged mobile, 64-bit computing technology. Typical applications include civil and military simulation, mission planning, homeland security, scientific and medical visualization, architectural design, energy exploration, and entertainment. "This partnership is an opportunity for both Concurrent and NextCom," said Warren Neuburger, COO of Concurrent. "The combination of NextCom's unrivaled hardware and Concurrent's time-critical, low-latency Linux-based computing and visualization software will greatly advance military training environments providing a level of accuracy crucial to mission success." Based entirely on open COTS technology, NextCom's success comes from understanding client objectives and offering customized, scalable solutions to resolve the most pressing platform needs. Featuring server-level performance in a mobile form factor smaller than a briefcase, NextCom's solutions are ideal for on-site consultants or developers that need extreme-performance computing away from the office. Key technical design features of NextCom's product line include 64-bit multi-core processing, PCI Express x16 expansion, DDR (Double Data Rate) Refers to an SDRAM memory chip that increases performance by doubling the effective data rate of the frontside bus. For more details, see SDRAM. DDR - Double Data Rate Random Access Memory memory and multi-DIMM channeling, as well as flexible networking, storage and OS support. "Concurrent customers can experience dramatically reduced packaging size and enhanced real-time performance enabled by the synergy of NextCom and Concurrent's Linux-based real-time operating system (operating system) Real-Time Operating System - (RTOS) Any operating system where interrupts are guaranteed to be handled within a certain specified maximum time, thereby making it suitable for control of hardware in embedded systems and other time-critical applications. and COTS visualization technology. Our combined ability to refine the graphical environment to such an accurate and highly-responsive degree will greatly improve mission training and rehearsal for critical military operations," said Bob Labadini, NextCom CTO (Chief Technical Officer) The executive responsible for the technical direction of an organization.
