Sandia National Labs Inks Contract with ActionFront.


ATLANTA -- ActionFront's SignalTrace(TM) Technology to be leveraged by US Government Lab

ActionFront Data Recovery Labs has signed a contract with Sandia National Laboratories Sandia National Laboratories, which is managed and operated by the Sandia Corporation (a wholly owned subsidiary of Lockheed Martin Corporation), is a major United States Department of Energy research and development national laboratory with two locations, one in Albuquerque, New  to provide technical assistance for Sandia's data recovery capabilities.

Sandia's data storage team will gain access to certain aspects of ActionFront's SignalTrace(TM) research via this contract. SignalTrace(TM) is a breakthrough technology that can recover data from hard drives that are considered unrecoverable using current state-of-the-art recovery technology. ActionFront has coined the term "drive-independent" to describe their new process that can read digital media without using original drive electronics.

"We are pleased to assist Sandia in their data recovery efforts and needs" says ActionFront President Ron Austin. "We welcome this third party validation of the value of our Research and Development program."

In a related development, ActionFront's SignalTrace(TM) Technology will be presented next month to TMRC TMRC - /tmerk'/ The Tech Model Railroad Club at MIT, one of the wellsprings of hacker culture. The 1959 "Dictionary of the TMRC Language" compiled by Peter Samson included several terms that became basics of the hackish vocabulary (see especially foo, mung, and frob). , (IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields.  16th Annual Magnetic Recording Conference, tmrc.nanointernational.org) by Charles Sobey of Channel Science.
