Parvus to Launch New Rugged Computing, Networking and Display Products at Embedded Systems Conference April 4-6; Parvus Unveils Rugged Hardware Platforms for Military/Aerospace, Transportation and Commercial OEM Industries.SALT LAKE CITY -- Parvus Corp. will unveil new families of ruggedized mobile IP networking solutions, flat panel displays and embedded computer systems at the 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. Conference (Booth No. 1828) April 4-6 at the McEnery Convention Center, San Jose San Jose, city, United States San Jose (sănəzā`, săn hōzā`), city (1990 pop. 782,248), seat of Santa Clara co., W central Calif.; founded 1777, inc. 1850. , Calif. The launch of these commercial off-the-shelf Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) is a term for software or hardware, generally technology or computer products, that are ready-made and available for sale, lease, or license to the general public. (COTS) hardware platforms Each hardware platform, or CPU family, has a unique machine language. All software presented to the computer for execution must be in the binary coded machine language of that CPU. Following is a list of the major hardware platforms in existence today. See platform. further positions Parvus as a leading provider of rugged solutions for demanding real-world applications. "Time-to-market is often a critical factor for our customers, and development of completely custom systems may be cost or time prohibitive," said Clark Roundy, vice president of sales and marketing for Parvus Corp. "For this reason, Parvus is introducing these exciting new standardized rugged processor, display and computer networking
Computer networking is the engineering discipline concerned with communication between computer systems or devices. systems, which combine the core feature sets, environmental compliance and functionality desired by our customers. These products build upon years of experience by Parvus developing and qualifying similar devices for prime defense contractors, metropolitan transit authorities and homeland security Noun 1. Homeland Security - the federal department that administers all matters relating to homeland security Department of Homeland Security executive department - a federal department in the executive branch of the government of the United States integrators. We anticipate this offering will enable our customers to fast-track their development cycle, since 80 to 100% of what they need will be already developed." These three new product families leverage Parvus' 20+ year heritage in embedded PC architecture and system ruggedization. They include: the DuraMAR(TM) mobile access router See edge router and remote access router. , the DuraCOR(TM) rugged computer A rugged (or ruggedized) computer is a computer specifically designed to reliably operate in harsh usage environments and conditions, such as strong vibrations, extreme temperatures and wet or dusty conditions. processing platform family, and the DuraVIS(TM) rugged monitor and multi-function display family. DuraMAR Mobile Access Router DuraMAR is the first Mobile Internet Protocol (IP) router specifically tailored to the needs of the military, aerospace and rail transit industries. The DuraMAR leverages Cisco Systems' industry standard IOS (1) (Internetwork Operating System) An operating system from Cisco that is the primary control program used in its routers. IOS is widely used and robust system software that supports the common functions of all products under Cisco's CiscoFusion architecture. (R) software and 3200 Series Mobile Access Router (MAR) technology to enable a wide range of previously unattainable computer networking applications in challenging application environments, such as trains, helicopters, buses and armored vehicles. The DuraMAR is designed to support seamless mobile roaming between different wireless networks, supporting such applications as mobile hot spots hot spots acute moist dermatitis. , mobile Voice Over IP (VoIP) communication, inter-vehicle networking, IP technology bridging for legacy communications and real-time situational awareness capabilities for net-centric initiatives. DuraCOR Processor Platforms The DuraCOR series systems are modular, highly configurable embedded computers designed to meet military and transportation environmental standards. Ideal for general-purpose processing or application-specific functionality with add-on modules, these systems are engineered to withstand the shock, vibration, humidity, extreme temperatures and power requirements experienced onboard vehicles or aircraft. DuraVIS Displays The DuraVIS series are rugged monitors and avionics displays available for industrial mobile, aerospace and military applications. DuraVIS products offer daylight readability, a hardened mechanical design with anti-glare protective covers for impact protection and explosive decompression, excellent dimming capabilities and exceptional low-temperature operation. Some models also integrate modular embedded PC technology to support system expansion and onboard data processing capabilities. Designed to meet MIL-STD-810F and MIL-STD-461, each unit is designed with high reliability in mind, protecting against glare, EMI/EMC EMI/EMC Electromagnetic Interference/Electromagnetic Compatibility , extreme temperature, physical contact and shock & vibration.
