EMC Unveils Next-Generation Platform for Automated Network Change and Configuration ManagementEMC VoyenceControl 4.0 Leverages Model-Based Approach for Compliance and Closed Loop Network Orchestration with EMC Smarts

HOPKINTON, Mass., May 5 /PRNewswire/ -- EMC , the world leader in information infrastructure solutions, today unveiled its newest platform for next-generation automated network change and configuration management (NCCM) - EMC VoyenceControl 4.0. Providing a model-based approach to configuration management, the solution further reinforces EMC's closed-loop service orchestration strategy for data center automation and offers tight integration with EMC's market-leading resource management suite of software, including EMC Smarts.

VoyenceControl 4.0 delivers industry-leading return on investment by enabling enterprises and managed service providers to ensure the operational efficiency, compliance, security, and availability of their networks. Core to Version 4.0 is the solution's new modeling, reporting, compliance and multi-configuration management capabilities -- addressing key management challenges posed by the complexity of today's network device designs and configurations.

"As companies struggle to keep pace with network growth, complexity and the increasing frequency of change across the networked infrastructure -- solutions for managing change while monitoring governance, compliance, security and service impact are now one hundred percent vital to IT," said Dennis Drogseth, Vice President, Enterprise Management Associates. "Since research shows more than half of IT problems stem from change and configuration issues, investments in network change and configuration solutions not only make sense, they are now becoming must haves for any enterprise or service provider that wants to remain competitive."

VoyenceControl 4.0 is a model-based automated compliance, change and configuration management solution -- delivering industry-recognized best practices, enhanced collaborative network infrastructure design, verified controlled change processes, network device and service configuration transparency, and an enhanced ability to ensure compliance with corporate and regulatory requirements. This enables enterprises and service providers to better ensure the security, availability and operational efficiency of their networks. When combined with the model-based power of Smarts analytics, customers have an unparalleled closed loop network automation system able to automatically find root cause issues, determine compliance, provision and make appropriate network changes or rollbacks within the context of their best practices and policies.

"With the introduction of EMC VoyenceControl 4.0, we continue to help our customers reduce the complexities of their IT environments by enabling them to take a highly automated approach to IT management," said Chris Gahagan, EMC's Senior Vice President, Resource Management Software. "When integrated with EMC Smarts or any other leading management software, EMC VoyenceControl enables fully closed-loop configuration management -- automating and streamlining all tasks related to network configuration, change and compliance management."

Core to VoyenceControl 4.0 are several new features, including: -- Extensible Hybrid Model-Based Approach Aligns closely with the model-based management capabilities of Smarts and EMC Application Discovery Manager (ADM), enabling a higher level of vendor-neutral management by policy or best practice. This approach also saves customers significant time and money, allowing them to create vendor-neutral compliance templates for network devices instead of creating a policy and template for each vendor. -- One of Industry's Only Multi-Configuration File Support Solutions Allows for complete understanding of the configuration state at any time (running, start-up, VLAN database, etc.). VoyenceControl is now one of the only network change and configuration management solutions prepared to manage next generation devices and provide detailed accounting of who has changed what when, and if the change was in compliance. -- Closed Loop Network Orchestration with EMC Smarts Enables VoyenceControl change events to be associated with Smarts managed devices, viewing VoyenceControl details from an event displayed in Smarts, contextually launch VoyenceControl directly from Smarts, and synchronize the Smarts and VoyenceControl topologies. -- New Compliance Engine Supports both device and regulatory compliance. -- New Reporting Engine Provides advanced compliance-reporting capabilities and the ability to create customized reports.

VoyenceControl 4.0 is available now. More information can be found at http://www.emc.com/products/category/it-operations-management.htm

InfoLogix Acquires Delta Health Systems; Adds Strategic Cost Management Consulting Services at the Executive Level

HATBORO, Pa., May 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- InfoLogix, Inc. , a leading technology provider of enterprise mobility solutions for the healthcare and commercial industries, announced today that it has acquired substantially all the assets of Delta Health Systems, Inc. a company specializing in providing strategic cost management consulting services to hospitals across North America. The assets acquired include Delta's proprietary On-Demand Executive Information System (EIS) for strategic cost management and productivity within hospitals.

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20071101/NETH165LOGO )

Delta has saved millions of dollars and improved service levels for healthcare organizations over the past 30 years through its strategic cost management consulting services and web-based analytics software. Delta's consultants have an average of more than 25 years of clinical experience and many hold multiple healthcare and management degrees.

Demand for healthcare consulting and systems integration continues to witness tremendous growth with the total healthcare consulting marketplace being projected to exceed $30 billion by 2010 according to analyst estimates.

"The addition of Delta enables InfoLogix to further partner alongside the healthcare executive suite. Delta has strong relationships with healthcare CEOs and CFOs, which complements InfoLogix's relationships with healthcare CIOs and technology executives," says David Gulian, President and CEO of InfoLogix. "The majority of Delta engagements involve resource management recommendations that our InfoLogix Healthcare Informatics Associates consulting team can readily execute and deliver. Together with our core healthcare mobility expertise, this acquisition allows us to better provide holistic solutions across the healthcare organization."

"With Delta's expertise in pinpointing resource management opportunities, and the InfoLogix Healthcare Informatics Associates team's in-depth knowledge of clinical systems and workflow, we look forward to enabling hospitals to put Delta's powerful recommendations into action and achieving the greatest degree of savings possible from these programs," says Gerry Bartley, Executive Vice President and Managing Director of Healthcare Consulting at InfoLogix.

"We are excited to be joining the InfoLogix team, as we believe that Delta's services are highly complementary to the services that InfoLogix provides," says Michael D. Talerico, principal of Delta Health Systems. "Research shows that as little as 40% of nursing time is spent on providing patient care, and over the course of 300 engagements, we have proven that implementing a Delta strategic cost management program vastly improves this percentage. Together with the systems consulting and mobility services that InfoLogix provides, we look forward to helping hospitals take their Strategic Cost Management programs to the next level-with a powerful, holistic approach to improving resource management and financial performance throughout the organization."

In addition to Delta's consulting services, Delta's proprietary web-based MRS-Web software provides all levels of hospital management with an On-Demand tool for continuous monitoring of cost management performance metrics, including insight on specific operational targets -- such as cost and quality -- that can directly improve operations and impact bottom-line financial performance.

"We are looking forward to leveraging Delta's MRS-Web On-Demand Executive Information System asset alongside our other On-Demand software mobility applications, as well as using Delta's strong expertise in return on investment (ROI) studies to help our customers better quantify and assess the impact of technology solutions across their entire hospital," says Gulian. "For example, this can provide us with the ability to empower healthcare executives with time and motion studies that quantify the true business impact of RFID asset and people tracking. The addition of Delta brings both immediate and long-term synergies."

InfoLogix expects the acquisition to be accretive to 2008 earnings. About InfoLogix, Inc.

Phoenix Technologies Brings Remote Data Protection to Fujitsu Mobile Disk Drives- Phoenix FailSafe(TM) will enhance FDE-based notebooks with remote secure erase functionality and more- Phoenix FailSafe service is optimized for the leading mobile hard drives available in the market today

MILPITAS, Calif., May 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Phoenix Technologies Ltd. today announced it is working with Fujitsu Limited to enable remote disk control and disk data protection for mobile computing environments equipped with Fujitsu's new full disk encryption (FDE) 2.5" 7,200RPM SATA hard disk drive (HDD). With Phoenix FailSafe, the laptop or notebook owner can remotely disable the Fujitsu FDE drive in the laptop, thus ensuring "failsafe" protection against data theft and personal information loss.

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20070410/SFTU048LOGO)

"Fujitsu's new FDE technology delivers the industry's strongest security method for mobile computing, while preserving a high level of performance," said Joel Hagberg, vice president, marketing and business development, Fujitsu Computer Products of America, Inc. "Our encryption capabilities ensure data on the disk drive is inaccessible to unauthorized users if a laptop is lost or stolen. By enabling users to remotely disable, enable or securely erase the drive in a laptop, the Phoenix Failsafe solution provides an added level of protection to further prevent any confidential information from being compromised."

Surendra Arora, vice president of business development at Phoenix Technologies, said, "We are committed to providing the best theft deterrence service and data protection solutions in the PC industry.

His informal counsel has been very valuable to CNS Response during the past year.

About CNS Response

CNS Response is a life-sciences data company whose patented system provides treatment guidance to psychiatrists and other physicians for patients with behavioral (mental or addictive) disorders. This technology allows CNS Response to create and provide simple reports ("rEEG(R) Reports") that specifically guide physicians to treatment strategies based on the patient's own physiology.

rEEG(R) utilizes traditional electroencephalography (EEG) in conjunction with a normative database and a proprietary clinical (symptomatic) database to identify the following: (1) medication classes most likely to be needed; and (2) medications within these classes with the most probable treatment potential for each patient. Reports are provided to physicians in a relationship analogous to that of a reference laboratory. Prospective, retrospective and field studies of treatment-resistant patients have reported treatment success of 70% or greater in managed care, outpatient psychiatric and residential substance abuse clinical settings.

In addition to providing analytical support to physicians, CNS Response is also an aid to pharmaceutical developers, who can use rEEG to (1) stratify study populations to improve the success of FDA clinical trials; (2) provide insight on effective therapeutic dosing of investigational drugs; (3) identify additional indications for psychiatric medications; (4) provide insight into effective drug combinations; and (5) discover opportunities for decision analytics and support. In addition to these applications, CNS Response continues to investigate the use of rEEG analysis for development of proprietary pharmaceutical opportunities.

EMCORE Receives $28 Million Order for Concentrator Solar Cell Receivers from ES System in KoreaAccelerated deployment of solar farms in Korea drives increased demand for EMCORE's Concentrating Photovoltaic (CPV) products

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., May 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- EMCORE Corporation a leading provider of Semi-conductor-based components and subsystems for the broadband, fiber-optic, satellite and terrestrial solar power markets, announced today that it has entered into a $28 million definitive supply agreement with ES System of Gwang-Ju, South Korea, for solar cell receivers to be fielded in fully licensed and funded solar farms in South Korea. This agreement incorporates an advance deposit to ensure production priority, and will enable the installation of 70 megawatts (MW) of solar farms. Production for this order has commenced and shipments are scheduled to occur over the next 24 months with the provisions for accelerated deliveries as well as future purchase options under the same terms.

"We are delighted that ES System has elected to source CPV receivers directly from EMCORE," stated David Danzilio, Vice President and General Manager of EMCORE's Photovoltaics Division. "We continue to see increased demand for this enabling product from customers around the world and this purchase order further diversifies our growing terrestrial component backlog, which now exceeds $110M. Our second automated receiver assembly line has entered into volume production and we expect to commence shipments from the third receiver line in June. When combined with the recently completed CPV solar cell capacity expansion, this assembly capability positions EMCORE as the only vertically integrated CPV receiver manufacturer to the global concentrating photovoltaics industry," added David Danzilio.

James Park, Chief Operating Officer of ES System stated, "ES System is proud to be the leading provider of CPV systems in Korea. Our longstanding record of low-cost manufacturing and deployment of complex PV systems, including our previous success in the silicon solar power fields, assures our significant contribution in meeting the growing need for affordable renewable energy. We are convinced that the EMCORE cell receiver technology provides the best solution for high concentration CPV systems both now and in the future."

The Korean Government has recently announced an increase of the total installed capacity target from 100 to 500 MW while maintaining the solar power feed-in tariff at 677 Korean won per kw-hr for systems deployed by September 30, 2008. This policy has stimulated the acceleration of solar farm installation in Korea. ES System is responding to robust sales of their solar CPV systems and currently is also procuring EMCORE receivers under an existing supply agreement from Green and Gold Energy (GGE) of Adelaide, Australia. All Emcore solar cell receivers are being integrated into ES System CPV units at their manufacturing facilities in Gwang-Ju City, Korea. Recently, GGE has been encouraging direct supply relationships between their major licensees and EMCORE. We expect more orders from GGE's licensees under similar terms in the near future.

EMCORE has introduced a line of integrated CPV solar cell products optimized for operation from 500X to 1000X concentration, which provide terrestrial systems integrators with a complete photovoltaic solution for their CPV systems. EMCORE's CPV receiver is easily integrated into existing CPV systems and has emerged as the most desirable form in the industry. EMCORE is the first company to provide its customers with 20 years of performance warranty. By choosing EMCORE's complete and highly reliable receiver solution, CPV system developers are able to focus their efforts on advancing their optical design and optimizing the balance of the system, significantly reducing their time to market.

LanOptics Announces Record Revenues of $7 Million in the First Quarter of 2008, Representing 78% YoY Revenue Growth

YOKNEAM, Israel, May 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- LanOptics Ltd. , a provider of network processors, today announced its results for the quarter ended March 31, 2008.

First Quarter 2008 Highlights: -- First quarter revenues increased 78% year-over-year and 21% sequentially -- Gross margin for the quarter was 46.0% on GAAP basis, 60.2% on non-GAAP basis -- LanOptics/EZchip share exchange resulted in one-time, non-cash, in-process R&D charge of $5.1 million, leading to a net loss for the quarter of $6.3 million on a GAAP basis -- Net income for the quarter totaled $0.5 million on non-GAAP basis -- Cash position increased by $2.0 million in the quarter, to $44.7 million at the end of March 2008

Total revenues in the first quarter of 2008 were $7.0 million, an increase of 78% compared to $3.9 million in the first quarter of 2007, and an increase of 21% compared to $5.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2007. All of LanOptics' revenues were attributable to its EZchip Technologies subsidiary.

Net results - A one-time, non-cash, in-process research and development charge of $5.1 million, associated with the LanOptics/EZchip share exchange (see below), resulted in a net loss on a GAAP basis for the first quarter of 2008 of $6.3 million, or $0.28 per share, compared to a net loss of $1.1 million, or $0.07 per share, in the first quarter of 2007, and a net loss of $0.6 million, or $0.03 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2007. Net income on a non-GAAP basis for the first quarter of 2008 was $0.5 million, or $0.02 per share (diluted), compared with non-GAAP net loss of $0.3 million, or $0.02 per share, in the first quarter of 2007, and non-GAAP net income of $0.4 million, or $0.02 per share (diluted), in the fourth quarter of 2007.

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of March 31, 2008, totaled $44.7 million compared to $42.6 million as of December 31, 2007.

"During the first quarter of 2008 we continued to experience the strong business and financial growth trend predominant throughout 2007," commented Eli Fruchter, CEO of EZchip Technologies. "During the quarter we saw a healthy ramp up in revenues, reaching $7 million, primarily driven by demand for our NP-2 network processor. This quarter was especially significant on the business front, as our specialized NP-3 chip is nearing production and our mainstream NP-3 chip is on track for sampling in the second quarter of the year. In addition, both of our recently announced products, the NPA family of processors, targeting the access market, and the NP-4 100-Gigabit network processor, received their first design wins during the quarter."

"Looking ahead, we are continuing to leverage our strong technological expertise and sound product and customer base to further build and expand the Company. We are experiencing strong recognition for our NP-4 chip, and anticipate that many of our current customers will select the NP-4 as the basis for their next generation products," concluded Mr. Fruchter.

Exchange Transaction

On January 22, 2008, we issued an aggregate of 5,011,841 of our ordinary shares to the last two principal EZchip shareholder groups, in an exchange transaction in which we acquired all of the shares of EZchip held by them. Following the exchange, we now own approximately 99% of the outstanding share capital of EZchip, or 89% on a fully diluted basis. This transaction was accounted for according to the "purchase method" of accounting. The purchase price for the shares acquired was $82.7 million, based on the average share prices of our ordinary shares for the two day period before and two day period after the transaction announcement. The excess of the purchase price over the book value of the acquired EZchip shares is being treated principally as intangible assets, and recorded as follows: "In-process research and development charge," in the amount of $5.1 million, was recorded as a one-time expense in a separate line item in our statements of operations; other tangible and intangible assets (including existing technology, backlog, customer relations and inventory adjustments) in the amount of $7.0 million are being amortized over the useful life terms of the various assets, with the corresponding expense recorded in our statements of operations; goodwill, in the amount of $46.7 million, is not being amortized and will be tested for impairment annually.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this release of operating results also contains non-GAAP financial measures, which LanOptics believes are the principal indicators of the operating and financial performance of its business. The non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effects of stock-based compensation charges recorded in accordance with SFAS 123R, amortization of purchased tangible and intangible assets, in-process research and development charge, amortization of discount on long-term loan and minority interest in loss of EZchip. Management believes the non-GAAP financial measures provided are useful to investors' understanding and assessment of LanOptics' on-going core operations and prospects for the future, as the charges eliminated are not part of the day-to-day business or reflective of the core operational activities of the Company. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as a basis for strategic decisions, forecasting future results and evaluating the Company's current performance. However, such measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures are provided in the schedules attached to this release.

CCID Consulting Analyzes Prospect on China's MFP market

Laser Products' Market Share Increases, Integrated Solutions will Attract Market Attention

BEIJING, May 5 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- CCID Consulting, China's leading research, consulting and IT outsourcing service provider, and the first Chinese consulting firm listed in Hong Kong (Hong Kong Stock Exchange: HK08235), recently released its 2007-2008 Annual Report on China's MFP market.

The report shows that, the market share of laser MFPs reaches 48.7% in 2007, up 26% over 2006. CCID Consulting forecasts that the market share of laser MFPs will reach 53.5% in 2012.

Table 1: The Structure of China's MFP Market, 2006-2007 (by Output Mode) Different Sales Volume Market Sales Volume Market Growth Output Modes in 2006 Share in 2007 Share Rate (10,000 (10,000 Sets) Sets) Laser Output 74.62 47.3% 94.04 48.7% 26.0% Ink-jet Output 83.13 52.7% 99.11 51.3% 19.2% Total 157.75 100% 193.15 100% 22.5% Source: CCID Consulting, Jan, 2008

CCID Consulting forecasts MFP market will develop in three trends in the future:

Laser products' demands increases, color MFPs become the focus

Users have high demands for high-speed printing and heavy load printing functions. Based on its high speed, high quality and durability, laser MFPs cater for more users and thus become more and more popular. Laser MFP is the first choice for office equipment in the future. With the evolution of global business, especially the development of media and advertising industries, color MFP products become the major development trend. Besides, laser MFP's price has a slowdown trend, which accords with the market trend of laser products replacing that of ink-jet products, similarly, color laser MFPs will substitute black and white laser MFPs.

Office integrated solutions receives much concern

MFP functions are becoming more sophisticated and system applications more complicated, which makes MFP not only OA equipments, but also solutions to improve efficiency and reduce cost. While industrial OA matures, MFP solutions tend to satisfy more urgent office demands. For example, logistics and finance industry need MFP solutions to provide high load printing tasks with high printing definition and fast printing speed, while media and advertising industry need MFP solutions to provide high quality, colorful, high definition printing results. Cost is the key issue in OA system construction for enterprises in merging industry and small enterprises. Hence, the performance price ratio and service life of MFP products are the key deciding factors for these enterprises. MFP solution for segment market will be the focus of different kinds of MFP providers. As MFP providers enhance technologically, providing optimized solutions will be an important approach to enhance their competitive capacities.

High efficiency and energy saving products are key areas in market competition

Under the policy of 'energy saving and reduction of emission', more enterprises tend to focus on high efficiency and energy saving products. MFP products from HP, Canon, and Konica appear in the list of energy saving government purchasing products. Consumers can find high efficiency and energy saving products in both high-end commercial market and low-end household market. High performance, such as high speed, low power consumption, and low noise of these products attracts more consumers, which will be the hotspot in the future MFP market.

Merkur Group Helps Polycom Improve Order-to-Cash EffectivenessPolycom Automates Inbound Purchase Orders and Outbound PO Acknowledgements Using Merkur's PeopleSoft Order Management Integration

DAYTON, Ohio, May 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Advant-e Corporation (BULLETIN BOARD: AVEE) , through its wholly owned operating subsidiary Merkur Group, Inc., announced today that Polycom Inc. has implemented the Merkur PeopleSoft Order Management Integration to automate inbound faxed and e-mailed orders to reduce manual data entry, reduce data entry errors, speed order entry, and automate document storage.

Ron Coble, Director, Information Technology at Polycom, Inc., commented: "Merkur Group's PeopleSoft Order Management Integration has greatly reduced the amount of work our Customer Service Representatives (CSR) must perform and has automated how we process paper-based orders."

Instead of requiring Polycom CSR's to manually key in a purchase order data from a paper document, Merkur's solution converts the inbound faxed image to text using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology. The OCR data is validated against the PeopleSoft Order Management tables to check part numbers, pricing, discounts, etc. and the data is then presented to the CSR for review in a web-based application. Once the CSR verifies the order, they can accept it and Merkur's PeopleSoft Order Management Integration creates a new order in the PeopleSoft system similar to how Polycom processes Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) orders. The document is automatically indexed and stored in Polycom's imaging application and an order confirmation is faxed or e-mailed to the customer.

Bob Kroger, Director of Industry Sales, commented: "The Polycom implementation is a great example of how companies can automate paper-based processes using Merkur Group's technology. With the ability to integrate data from faxed and e-mailed transactions, they can capture information from inbound customer purchase orders and supplier invoices and import the data into their ERP system similar to an EDI process. This solution dramatically reduces the effort and errors associated with manual processing of these documents."

Jason K. Wadzinski, CEO of Advant-e Corporation, added: "Polycom's use of Merkur's PeopleSoft Order Management Integration is a perfect example of how we can provide document automation solutions that extend beyond our strength in Electronic Data Interchange. Inbound purchase order automation has traditionally been difficult to achieve with EDI alone. Due to the nature of the supplier-to-customer relationship, EDI can be offered as one way to automate business transactions, but additional methods are necessary to extend the options available to the customer."
