NetLogic Microsystems and Advanced Micro Devices Showcase the Industry's Most Advanced Layer 7 Content Processing Solution at 3GSM World Congress 2007.MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- NetLogic Microsystems, Inc. (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :NETL NETL - A semantic network language, for connectionist architectures. ["NETL: A System for Representing and Using Real-World Data", S.E. Fahlman, MIT Press 1979]. ), the leader in the design and development of knowledge-based processors, today announced that it is exhibiting the industry-leading NETL7[TM] knowledge-based processor in collaboration with the 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. Opteron[TM] processor in AMD's booth #2.1B26 at the 3GSM World Congress 2007 in Barcelona, Spain from Feb. 12th to Feb. 15th. The 3GSM World Congress combines the world's largest exhibition for the mobile industry with a cutting edge congress featuring the most prominent mobile operators, vendors and content owners from across the world. The collaborative platform incorporates NetLogic Microsystems' NETL7 processor and the AMD Opteron processor to deliver unparalleled Layer 7 performance and functionality for 3G and 4G wireless infrastructure networks. The NETL7 knowledge-based processor enables application awareness and unified network security that in turn allows mobile operators to create tiered services based on user applications and to provide comprehensive security protection against malware. The NETL7 processor accelerates intensive deep-packet inspection and complex signature recognition functions on the AMD Opteron, and allows network managers to perform full content processing on every bit of data, voice and video traffic traversing the network at wire speeds. "The mobile infrastructure segment represents a key element of our quad-play enablement strategy, and we are excited to team up with AMD at the 3GSM World Congress to showcase our respective families of best-in-class processors that allow customers to enhance the functionality of next-generation wireless infrastructure equipment while leveraging significant industry investments in x86-based systems," said Kelvin kelvin, abbr. K, official name in the International System of Units (SI) for the degree of temperature as measured on the Kelvin temperature scale. A unit of measurement of temperature. Khoo, director of strategic marketing at NetLogic Microsystems. "This collaboration further extends our relationship with AMD and our participation in the AMD Torrenza program." The Torrenza program was launched by AMD in June 2006 as the industry's first x86 customer-centric innovation platform that allows customers to differentiate, innovate and take control of their brands by collaborating with silicon acceleration partners such as NetLogic Microsystems to provide enhanced functionality and performance for enterprise-class computing and high-end embedded systems Embedded systems Computer systems that cannot be programmed by the user because they are preprogrammed for a specific task and are buried within the equipment they serve. . The tightly coupled See tight coupling. and highly optimized solution from NetLogic Microsystems and AMD are targeted at applications such as Layer 7 switching and routing, Unified Threat Management See UTM. (UTM (Unified Threat Management) Refers to a stand-alone appliance or a software package that combines a firewall, antivirus, spam and content filtering as well as intrusion detection. See firewall, antivirus, antispam and IDS. ) systems, intrusion prevention See IPS and IDS. and detection systems, malware and virus protection gateways that provide network managers with application awareness and unified layers of defense to more effectively manage and protect their networks against an increasing variety of blended threats.
