Report generator for UNIVAX SS90. today announced it has been working with HP to add key enhancements to the Linux Programmer's Toolkit (PTK PTK Phi Theta Kappa PTK Protein Tyrosine Kinase (insulin receptor) PTK Polskiego Towarzystwa Kardiologicznego (Polish Cardiac Society) PTK Phototherapeutic Keratectomy PTK Pairwise Transient Key ), an integrated development framework for developing Linux applications on IA32 and Itanium systems using Red Hat or Debian Linux See Debian. (http://ptk.progeny.com). PTK empowers software developers and ISVs to hone the competitive edge of their products. PTK's convenience allows registered users to download To receive a file transmitted over a network. In any communications session, "download" means receive, and "upload" means send. The download/upload often implies a big/little scenario, in which data is being downloaded from the "big" server into the "little" user's computer. more than 1,000 packages that are targeted for developers and ISVs creating applications in Debian and Red Hat Linux Red Hat Linux, assembled by Red Hat, was a popular, "middle-aged" Linux distribution (not as old as Slackware but older than Ubuntu) upon its discontinuation in 2004.[1] Red Hat Linux 1.0 was released on November 3, 1994. environments. The PTK team continually searches for and assembles the best and most up-to-date Linux development tools so that developers can focus on writing code. Other significant PTK developments: -- Access to Itanium 2 machines for testing and optimizing applications -- News content to be provided by LWN.net -- Integration of Java tools, including the Eclipse platform (Eclipse delivers a plug-in based framework that makes it easier to create, integrate, and use software tools, saving time and money) -- Numerous OS enhancements, including incorporation of the KDE 3 desktop, Gnome2, OpenOffice, authentication and installation upgrades, and security updates -- Addition of GCC 3.2 (GNU Compiler Collection) "PTK was created with Progeny's Platform Services, which now includes the Linux Platform Manager, a web-based tool that allows businesses to build products on a more stable, secure, and functional Red Hat or Debian Linux platform at significantly lower cost than a custom solution," said Ian Murdock Ian Murdock (born April 28, 1973, in Konstanz, Germany) is the founder of the Debian GNU/Linux distribution and the commercial Linux distributor Progeny. He currently works for Sun Microsystems "head[ing] up operating system platform strategy"[1] , Chairman and Chief Technology Officer of Progeny. "PTK will continue to evolve into a more comprehensive environment that allows users to develop Linux-powered applications in a developer-focused environment and deploy on nearly any distribution," said Steve Geary, director of Linux and Open Source Lab, HP Business Critical Systems. "HP is committed to supporting Linux by lowering barriers to entry for experienced developers who are using non-Linux platforms, which is why we've co-developed PTK with Progeny." Progeny will be on hand in HP's booth (No. 822) at LinuxWorld to discuss and demonstrate PTK and Platform Services technologies.
