PRINCETON SOFTECH HELPS PIONEER, CROSS-PLATFORM UNIVERSAL DATA SYNCHRONIZATION STANDARD.Princeton Softech, a subsidiary of Computer Horizons Corp. (Nasdaq:CHRZ), and a leader in enterprise data synchronization Keeping data in two or more computers up-to-date so that each repository contains the identical information. Data in handheld devices and laptops often require synchronization with the data in a desktop machine or server. technology, has joined, at IBM's invitation, the consortium of leading vendors developing SyncML, an industry-wide mobile data synchronization protocol. The SyncML initiative, founded by Ericsson, IBM (International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, NY, www.ibm.com) The world's largest computer company. IBM's product lines include the S/390 mainframes (zSeries), AS/400 midrange business systems (iSeries), RS/6000 workstations and servers (pSeries), Intel-based servers (xSeries) , Lotus, Motorola, Nokia, Palm Inc., Psion and Starfish Software Starfish was founded in 1994 by Philippe Kahn, best known for his invention of the camera phone and his most recent company Fullpower Technologies. The founding vision of Starfish was global synchronization and integration of wireless and wireline devices, which translated with the , develops and promotes an open industry specification for universal data synchronization across multiple networks, platforms and devices. "Princeton Softech leads the way in enterprise database synchronization with SyncPoint. Designed to enable web-based and remote computing via synchronization of mission-critical data, our vision for SyncPoint fits perfectly with the mission of the SyncML initiative, which is to deliver a protocol that is capable of handling every data type," explains Joe Allegra Al·leg·ra A trademark for the drug fexofenadine hydrochloride. fexofenadine hydrochloride Allegra, Telfast (UK) Pharmacologic class: Peripherally selective piperidine, selective histamine , president, Princeton Softech. "Princeton Softech's considerable experience in data synchronization technology will make us a vital contributor to the SyncML standard." Princeton Softech's SyncPoint is an enterprise-scale product that allows thousands of handheld, palmtop palmtop or hand-held personal computer, lightweight, small, battery-powered, general-purpose programmable computer. It typically has a miniaturized full-function, typewriterlike keyboard for input and a small, full color, liquid-crystal display and laptop users to simultaneously synchronize with corporate, mission-critical applications. By using SyncPoint, mobile workers have universal, web-based access to corporate data that was once locked in the data center. This enables mobile workers to be fully functional in a disconnected mode, enabling them to fully realize the advantages of a thin client computing See thin client. strategy that includes access to relational databases. |
