SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 7, 2004

Teja Technologies Inc., the leading supplier of embedded networking and communications software for multi-core processor architectures, today announced that in order to meet increased demand within the European Union, the company has established a direct sales presence in London and Stockholm that will cover the entire region.

"As multi-core processor architectures continue to gain significant traction with network OEMs, Teja has seen increased demand overseas for its Teja NP Software Platform," said David Sequino, vice president of worldwide sales of Teja Technologies. "In response, it is imperative that we establish a local sales presence within the EU in order to better serve our expanding base of European customers."

Messrs. Johan Gardelius and Micke Wersall, each industry veterans with over 20 years of pan-European sales and marketing support experience for US-based electronics and embedded software companies, will run Teja's Stockholm and London efforts respectively.

"Leading European networking companies are picking up the pace in terms of new product design and development, and they find the reduced time to market offered by Teja NP a 'must-have,'" stated Johan Gardelius, Teja's sales representative in Stockholm. "Feedback from Teja's existing European users has been extremely encouraging."

About Teja NP

The Teja NP Software Platform allows system vendors and networking OEMs to create, test and implement software applications for multiprocessor architectures -- such as network processors and multi-core communications processors -- in less than half the time it takes with other methods. Teja accomplishes this through a unique approach to developing embedded networking applications that greatly simplifies the creation of software for parallel, multiprocessing architectures.

An OEM's primary challenge in designing with these types of systems is in properly partitioning the application code among the multiple processors, allocating shared memory, and building a framework to support scheduling, inter-processor communication and synchronization. Teja NP gives OEMs the ability to define a complete system's application logic in a C-based, hardware-independent model that is separately mapped to the various resources of the target hardware configuration, resulting in the automatic generation of optimized production code for the target system. The benefits of using Teja NP include the development of reliable, high-performance products that provide OEMs with a first-to-market advantage with significant reduction in engineering risk. Teja NP includes an Application Development Environment, a Network Processing Operating System (NPOS) Run Time and an extensible library of embedded network application building blocks.

Available applications from Teja and Teja Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) include IPv4 and IPv6 forwarding, TCP Offload/Termination, and ATM. Unlike reference code, all of Teja's foundation applications are fully documented and supported and are designed to be quickly and easily extended and customized using the Teja NP Application Development Environment. Teja applications are delivered pre-configured to run on popular development and production boards, including ADLINK, Force, Intel, Motorola, and RadiSys. Teja NP is currently available for the Intel(R) IXP2000(TM) family of network processors, as well as the Broadcom(R) SiByte(TM) family of multi-core MIPS processors.
