Reedy Creek Technologies and Ubicom to Work Together to Grow New Market in Smart Device Management; Enabling Millions of Connected Devices to be Easily Managed.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers RESEARCH TRIANGLE REGION, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 5, 2001 Reedy reed·y adj. reed·i·er, reed·i·est 1. Full of reeds. 2. Made of reeds. 3. Resembling a reed, especially in being thin or fragile: Creek Technologies, Inc., developers of software technology for information exchange, instruction delivery, and remote device management and control, and Ubicom, Inc., the leading supplier of Internet Processors and networking software  This article is written like a personal reflection or and may require .Please [ improve this article] by rewriting this article in an . , today announced that they will work together to expand opportunities in large scale distributed device networks. Reedy Creek software technology, when combined with the Ubicom Internet Processor platform, provides a device management solution for original equipment manufacturers. Reedy Creek will take advantage of the programmability of the Internet Processor, using the chip to carry its own Command & Control Internet Transport (CCIT See ITU. )(TM) software. Potential applications range from 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. to vending machines vending machine, coin-operated, automatic device for selling goods. Many vending machines are capable of making change, and some of the more sophisticated ones accept paper money or credit cards. to industrial automation. One of the newest applications is for built-in color display that promotes interaction with end-users, changing and updating the message as needed as needed prn. See prn order. . Today these devices include gasoline dispensers, cashless vending machines, information kiosks, and even home appliances. "Looking ahead to the millions of intelligent devices to be connected, device management is crucial for the success of large-scale distributed communications," said Stephan Thaler THALER. The name of a coin. The thaler of Prussia and of the northern states of Germany is deemed as money of account, at the custom-house, to be of the value of sixty-nine cents. Act of May 22, 1846. 2. , vice president of Marketing at Ubicom. "We're pleased to work with such innovators as Reedy Creek Technologies to provide solutions for their customers." Reedy Creek's CCIT technology leverages standard e-mail processes to perform a variety of tasks including sending commands and receiving information from remote devices and embedding 1. (mathematics) embedding - One instance of some mathematical object contained with in another instance, e.g. a group which is a subgroup. 2. (theory) embedding - (domain theory) A complete partial order F in [X -> Y] is an embedding if content. CCIT works in device specific information exchange and instruction delivery. The system enables device managers to interact securely and independently with servers or directly with widely dispersed smart devices. For example CCIT is ideal for applications ranging from home-appliance self-diagnosis to compiling profiles of device usage such as time-of-use or type-of-use. "This technology has been validated with our CCIT-based web content management solution called Real-time Page Management (RPM)(R) which has been in use for over two years by companies such as Motorola, DuPont, Sun Microsystems Sun Microsystems, Inc. (NASDAQ: JAVA[3]) is an American vendor of computers, computer components, computer software, and information-technology services, founded on 24 February 1982. , Marconi, the US Navy, and others," said Neal Davis, president of Reedy Creek Technologies. "CCIT can be easily deployed in conjunction with Ubicom's SX Series communications controllers A peripheral control unit that connects several communications lines to a computer and performs the actual transmitting and receiving as well as various message coding and decoding activities. and IP2022 Internet Processors. We look forward to working with Ubicom to develop this growing market." Ubicom's hardware and software products are highly programmable chips and pre-built software modules. The chips are delivery platforms that consist of a powerful, deterministic 1. (probability) deterministic - Describes a system whose time evolution can be predicted exactly. Contrast probabilistic. 2. (algorithm) deterministic - Describes an algorithm in which the correct next step depends only on the current state. processing engine and a field of extremely fast flash memory. A software "personality," such as Ubicom's networking protocols or CCIT, is electronically programmed into the flash memory to configure the chip for an application. Reedy Creek Technologies, Inc. Reedy Creek Technologies provides Internet-based software solutions and technology to help businesses manage and distribute information, including the automation of distributed command and control networks. These software solutions utilize Reedy Creek's patented Command and Control Internet Transport ("CCIT") technology. The company is building upon its initial CCIT application called Real-time Page Management ("RPM")(R), as well as expanding its growing relationships with OEM's who wish to leverage CCIT technology. www.reedycreek.com. Ubicom, Inc. Headquartered in Mountain View, Calif., Ubicom, Inc. is the leading supplier of Internet Processors and networking software that will connect billions of devices to the Internet. Ubicom implements communications and control functions as pre-built software modules that run on its Internet Processors. This approach reduces time to production and system cost, while providing greater flexibility, compared to traditional design approaches.
