Nazomi Communications has set up a strategic agreement with Aplix Corp to provide powerful Java multimedia functionality to wireless mobile handsets and consumer electronics products The two firms are leveraging the strengths of Nazomi's JStar, Universal Acceleration Technology, with JBlend, Aplix Corporation's best of breed Java platform
By combining these innovative hardware and software technologies, handset and consumer electronics manufacturers can bring fully accelerated, Java-powered mobile devices to market faster.
The integration of Nazomi's acceleration solutions and Aplix's JBlend platform enables mobile wireless handsets and other Internet appliances to run highly functional Java applications that are very responsive, yet require minimal power consumption.
As a result, carriers and service providers, that utilize the combined offering, can confidently deploy revenue-enhancing services that are developed with Java application software.
This, in turn, means that their end-user customers can more readily use portable devices to run complex Java applications like multimedia messaging, 2D/3D games, location-based and financial services, among others.
"Device OEMs and ODMs now have assurance that our Universal Java Accelerator technology and chip products featuring our JStar, Java coprocessor intellectual property (IP) solution, are readily interoperable with industry leading Java platform solutions such as Aplix's Jblendy", said Mukesh Patel, CEO and president of Nazomi Communications.
"Aplix is the leading provider of Java software technology to mobile wireless handset and Internet appliance manufacturers, so we are delighted to be aligned with Aplix and see JBlend for JStar getting ready for high volume deployment".
"Aplix is widely recognised as the leading provider of Java platform solutions for wireless handsets and Internet appliances in Japan.
By integrating our solutions with Nazomi's technology, we can also deliver fast hardware-accelerated solutions that enable consistent, responsive and energy efficient operation of the most complex Java programs", said Ryu Koriyama, CEO of Aplix Corp.
"Moreover, the cost effectiveness of the joint Nazomi-Aplix solution makes it suitable for both high-end premium products as well as high-volume, cost-sensitive products".
The integrated solution of JBlend and Nazomi's JStar technology is currently available to wireless, mobile handset and consumer electronics product developers.
