Contigo's Itinerary Web Presenter Illustrates Enhanced Java-Based Server Performance at Intel Processor Launch.SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 15, 1998-- Itinerary Shows 33 Percent Performance Gain on Pentium II/Gateway ALR ALR Administrative License Revocation ALR Agricultural Land Reserve (Canada) ALR Automatic Locking Retractor (seat belts) ALR Australian Law Reports (University of Tasmania Library) 8200 Itinerary Web Presenter, the industry's leading Internet data-conferencing application from San Diego-based Contigo Software, was demonstrated Wednesday at the Intel Pentium II The successor to the Pentium Pro from Intel. Pentium II refers to the CPU chip or the PC that uses it. Code named "Klamath," the Pentium II was a Pentium Pro with MMX multimedia instructions. processor launch in San Francisco San Francisco (săn frănsĭs`kō), city (1990 pop. 723,959), coextensive with San Francisco co., W Calif., on the tip of a peninsula between the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay, which are connected by the strait known as the Golden . Itinerary, one of the event's key Java-based server applications, illustrates the performance and power of this business application at the latest processor speeds. The Itinerary Internet presentation can support 33 percent more participants in real-time with no loss of performance using a Gateway ALR 8200 server with a new 100-MHz front side bus and a 400-MHz Pentium II. "Contigo's Java-based technology application, when run on Intel Pentium II processor-based platforms, delivers an exciting new visual computing The use of computers for 3D modeling and animation.

Education Paul Otellini graduated from St. Ignatius College Preparatory. He holds a bachelor's degree in economics from the University of San Francisco. , executive vice president of Intel's Architecture Business Group. "Pentium II processor-based performance helps bring these visual computing capabilities to mainstream business users." Optimized for Larger Audiences Itinerary Web presenter allows users to launch real-time Internet presentations and data conferences by simultaneously controlling the remote Web browsers The following is a list of web browsers.

Although this process does not require special equipment of technical expertise from the users' or audiences' end, it benefits from enhanced performance from the server hardware. Itinerary has been optimized to leverage Windows NT's multi-threading capabilities to deliver real-time graphical presentations simultaneously to a large number of participants. Servers Pick up New Bus At the server end, companies such as ALR, now a wholly owned subsidiary Wholly Owned Subsidiary A subsidiary whose parent company owns 100% of its common stock. Notes: In other words, the parent company owns the company outright and there are no minority owners. of Gateway 2000 Inc., has significantly optimized the performance power that CPUs can deliver. The ALR 8200's new 100-MHz bus increases server I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output. I/O - Input/Output by 50 percent more than the industry standard 66 MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc. buses. Bolstered by this new bus, Itinerary can send Web pages, presentation slides and video streams faster than was possible before. "Gateway is at the forefront of developing technologies that can exponentially expand the performance of PCs, workstations, servers and mobile PCs," said Gene Lu, vice president of Gateway's Global Products Organization. "This performance enhancement becomes evident when running highly scalable, real-world, graphical business applications, such as Contigo's Itinerary data-conferencing software."
