Zumwalt Team Achieves Software Certification Milestone

TEWKSBURY, Mass., July 10, 2008 /PRNewswire/ -- Raytheon Company has achieved another significant program milestone for the Zumwalt-class destroyer.

The company successfully completed the U.S. Navy software certification panel for the Total Ship Computing Environment (TSCE) Release 4, verifying readiness to proceed to the next phase of software development.

The software certification panel was composed of a diverse set of Navy "Technical Warrant Holders" who assessed the team's overall readiness to proceed to software Release 5, using Release 4 as the baseline. The panel members were impressed with the processes in place and commended the Zumwalt team for the breadth of topics and technical details included in the comprehensive review.

This success marks the official completion of Zumwalt TSCE software Release 4, with more than one million equivalent lines of code developed, integrated, tested and delivered on schedule - a substantial accomplishment within the overall program.

"With each achievement, we move closer to delivering Zumwalt's advanced and proven capabilities to our warfighters," said Raytheon Integrated Defense System's (IDS) Bob Martin, vice president and deputy of Seapower Capability Systems. "We attribute this success to our collaborative partnership with the U.S. Navy and industry partners."

The panel chairman, Reuben Pitts, Naval Surface Warfare Center's Warfare Systems department head, remarked that the team's processes are seen as "a model for the Navy," adding: "With no reservations, I declare Release 4 closed and will sign a letter authorizing you to proceed to Release 5. Good on all of you."

Zumwalt's TSCE comprises six releases of software, each adding mission capability and robustness to the ship's computing infrastructure. TSCE's modern, open architecture provides an affordable, cost-efficient platform for the reuse of millions of lines of code from existing Navy programs.

The current increment under development, Release 5, introduces surface warfare, integrated undersea warfare, information operations and general naval operations capabilities to the combat system and also provides the framework to support the ship's engineering control system. In addition, multi-mission engagement support is significantly enhanced with the addition of post-launch missile support for both Evolved SeaSparrow Missile and Standard Missile, as well as the full capabilities of the Close-in-Gun System and Advanced Gun System.

Software is being simultaneously developed by the Zumwalt National Team, geographically dispersed across 25 locations, representing the combined efforts of 80 different companies. Raytheon performs software work for the Zumwalt program at a number of IDS mission centers across the country, including IDS Headquarters, Tewksbury, Mass.; Seapower Capability Center, Portsmouth, R.I.; Surveillance and Sensors Center, Sudbury, Mass.; Expeditionary Warfare Center, San Diego, Calif.; as well as several other Raytheon facilities.

Under the Navy's DDG 1000 Detail Design and Integration contract awarded in 2005, Raytheon IDS serves as the prime mission systems equipment integrator for all electronic and combat systems for the Zumwalt-class destroyer program. Working with the Navy and a team of industry leaders, IDS is leading the effort to transform the Navy's ship requirements to reality. For more information, visit http://www.raytheon.com/products/ddg_1000.

Integrated Defense Systems is Raytheon's leader in Joint Battlespace Integration providing affordable, integrated solutions to a broad international and domestic customer base, including the U.S. Missile Defense Agency, the U.S. Armed Forces and the Department of Homeland Security.

Sonus and VeriSign(R) Communications Services Enable Operators to Provide Cost Effective Number PortabilitySuccessful Interoperability Testing Delivers Choice To Operators To Run Queries Over IP-Based Networks

WESTFORD, Mass., July 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Sonus Networks , a market leader in IP communications infrastructure, today announced that VeriSign, the trusted provider of Internet infrastructure services for the networked world, has successfully demonstrated interoperability testing that will allow wireless, wireline and cable operators the ability to run number portability queries over IP-based networks.

The introduction of number portability regulation by many governments has, in some cases, increased the resources needed by carriers to complete the accurate transfer of calls. The implementation of Local Number Portability (LNP) has created the need for carriers to perform a LNP Query. This in turn has resulted in an elevated use of the carrier's SS7 networks, and in some cases necessitates the need to purchase additional SS7 network capacity.

"Minimizing cost continues to be a driving force behind the migration to IP," said Paul Florack, vice president of network and database services, VeriSign Communications Services Division. "Use of the VeriSign(R) Number Identity Registry for real-time location routing number discovery leverages our ENUM infrastructure, and its complete, up-to-date, portability-corrected record of the entire North American Number Plan (NANP)."

Sonus has implemented an IP-based LNP Query mechanism, ENUM-LNP, as an inexpensive alternative to the traditional SS7-based LNP Query. The IP transported LNP Query is served by the VeriSign Number Identity Registry.

"Historically, number portability queries were taking place on traditional networks, increasing resources required to fulfill the process," commented Vikram Saksena, CTO at Sonus Networks. "By eliminating the need for legacy SS7 Service Control Points and related signaling interfaces, Sonus solutions can reduce operational costs associated with number portability implementations. We added this functionality in the most recent release of the Sonus multimedia platform and we are pleased to announce interoperability with VeriSign to enable more carriers to leverage one solution to manage their entire network, both legacy and IP-based."

Sonus' complete Local and Mobile Number Portability solutions, which are currently deployed in North America, Europe and Asia, support a variety of number portability routing methods, including traditional SS7 TCAP/INAP (Transactional Capabilities Application Part/Intelligent Network Application Part), ENUM, or direct hosting of a local number portability routing database.

Wegener Corporation Reports Results for Third Quarter of Fiscal 2008

DULUTH, Ga., July 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Wegener Corporation , a leading provider of products for television, audio and data distribution networks worldwide, today announced financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 ended May 30, 2008.

Third quarter revenues for fiscal 2008 were $4.4 million compared to $6.2 million reported in the same period of fiscal 2007. Revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2008 were $16.1 million compared to $15.8 million for the same period in fiscal 2007. The Company reported a net loss of $(775,000) or $(0.06) per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2008. This compares to net earnings of $251,000 or $0.02 per share for the same period in fiscal 2007. Operating results for the first nine months of fiscal 2008 were a net loss of $(489,000) or $(0.04) per share compared to a net loss of $(895,000) or $(0.07) per share during the same period in fiscal 2007.

WEGENER's eighteen-month backlog was $8.2 million at May 30, 2008, compared to $7.7 million at June 1, 2007. The total multi-year backlog at May 30, 2008 was approximately $13.6 million compared to $15.3 million at June 1, 2007. Bookings for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 were $1.9 million compared to $4.7 million for the same period in fiscal 2007.

"Large projects contribute about two-thirds of our total yearly revenue," stated Robert Placek, Chairman and CEO of WEGENER Corporation. "Obviously, this leads to very cyclical revenue and the third quarter was unfortunately a valley rather than a peak due to some unexpected delays with customer projects and product development. We continue to evaluate ways to expand our customer base to improve the consistency of revenue from quarter to quarter; however, the cyclical nature of our business will likely remain at some level.

"Due to the challenging business conditions facing WEGENER, we are scaling the company to make it more efficient for this environment. We do not expect to cut capacity significantly in order to achieve the needed scale."

Ned L. Mountain, President and COO of WEGENER(R) stated, "We believe our new products on which we are just completing development will generate solid revenue going forward. MPEG-4 video compression technology is proving to be a critical buying criterion for media companies and private network operators. Our first iPump(R) product incorporating MPEG-4 technology was just fielded in the third quarter and we expect additional revenue from that product."

Wegener Corporation will host a conference call to discuss its financial results at 4:30 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time on Thursday, July 10, 2008. To join the conference call, dial 1-866-510-0704 or 1-617-597-5362 and enter participant code 32420216.

iPhone 3G on Sale TomorrowOver 500 Native Applications for iPhone & iPod touch Available at Launch

CUPERTINO, Calif., July 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Apple(R) today announced that more than 500 native applications will be available on the iPhone's App Store when Apple's iPhone(TM) 3G goes on sale tomorrow. Apple's iPhone provides a breakthrough mobile platform for developers, who have created an incredible array of innovative applications such as stunning action games, advanced medical applications and robust productivity tools for the enterprise. These apps will be available on Apple's revolutionary new App Store, enabling customers to wirelessly download them directly onto their iPhones and start using them immediately. More than 125 applications are being offered to iPhone customers for free.

The new iPhone 3G combines all the revolutionary features of iPhone with 3G networking that is twice as fast*, built-in GPS for expanded location-based mobile services, and iPhone 2.0 software which includes support for Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync and runs hundreds of third party applications available through the new App Store which is a built-in application on every iPhone running iPhone 2.0 software.

"iPhone represents a new software platform for developers, combining the most advanced mobile operating system, sophisticated developer tools and a breakthrough way for developers to wirelessly sell and distribute their applications right onto every iPhone," said Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing. "The reaction from developers has been very, very positive and we're opening the App Store with over 500 native iPhone applications available for immediate purchase and download."

Many of these amazing new applications also take advantage of iPhone's large display, Multi-Touch(TM) user interface, fast hardware-accelerated 3D graphics, built-in accelerometer and location-based technology to bring far more powerful applications to the mobile arena than ever before.

The App Store on iPhone works over cellular networks and Wi-Fi, which means it is accessible from just about anywhere, so users can purchase and download applications wirelessly and start using them instantly. Applications are free or charged to the user's iTunes(R) account and the App Store notifies the user when updates are available for their apps. The App Store is also available in iTunes (http://www.itunes.com/) running on a Mac(R) or PC, which syncs applications to the iPhone or iPod(R) touch using a USB cable.

The App Store will offer over 500 native applications from hundreds of companies around the world in a variety of categories including games, business, news, sports, health, reference and travel.

"iPhone enables The Associated Press to deliver news in a way that simply wasn't possible before," said Benjamin Mosse, director of Mobile Products, The Associated Press. "Taking advantage of iPhone's revolutionary location-based services, our Mobile News network can capture and store local news stories that can be read by users even when they're offline and our award winning photography and AP video are displayed in stunning clarity on its high resolution screen."

"iPhone is changing the entire mobile industry and has quickly become the number one mobile device for accessing eBay," said Ken G. Sun, group product manager, eBay Mobile. "Users can shop, track bids and get great deals from the largest online marketplace in the world directly from their iPhone. We couldn't deliver such a complete and easy-to-use eBay experience on any other mobile device and iPhone users can download it free from the new App Store."

"iPhone is one of the most popular ways for people to enjoy Facebook on-the-go and we're excited to deliver a great native application via the App Store," said Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook. "Facebook is even cooler on the iPhone 3G, with the ability to discover friends nearby, or to effortlessly take pictures and upload them instantly to their Facebook account."

"The global MySpace community will love MySpace Mobile on iPhone," said Chris DeWolfe, CEO and Co-Founder of MySpace. "With rich features such as seamless photo uploading from iPhone to your MySpace profile, the MySpace Mobile application is gorgeous and as intuitive as possible-empowering the community with complete control over their global MySpace network right from the palm of their hand."

"Apple's iPhone and iPod touch open up the world of games to an entirely new audience," said David Cobb, vice president of Product Development, Sega. "The touch and tilt controls are natural and easy to learn, making gaming even more inviting, creative and rewarding. Super Monkey Ball takes advantage of these defining aspects and offers consumers an extremely accessible, imaginative and fun game experience. Whether an iPhone owner is new to games, or has been a fan for years, they will be intrigued and engaged by Super Monkey Ball and this progressive way to interact with entertainment."

"With an iPhone in your pocket, you'll never roam alone," said Jeffrey Glueck, CMO of Travelocity. "From finding the nearest hotel with just a few taps to checking your flight status in a snap, the magic of iPhone lets us put tools that no one has ever seen before in the hands of travelers."

In addition to the App Store, the iPhone 2.0 software update includes enterprise support, contact search, complete iWork(R) and MS Office document viewing support, the ability to delete or move emails in bulk, saving images from emails, a scientific calculator, parental controls and support for 16 additional languages.

Pricing & Availability

iPhone 3G will be available in the US on July 11 for a suggested retail price of $199 (US) for the 8GB model and $299 (US) for the 16GB model in both Apple and AT&T's retail stores and requires a new two-year contract with AT&T for qualifying customers**.

Judson Green, President and CEO of NAVTEQ, said: "Nokia has a deep understanding of the requirements for the industry. As part of Nokia, NAVTEQ will further invest in its map and content capabilities and make our products and services easier for all our customers to use and access."

NAVTEQ is a leading provider of comprehensive digital map data for automotive navigation systems, mobile navigation devices, Internet-based mapping applications, and government and business solutions. NAVTEQ creates the digital maps and map content that power navigation and location-based services solutions around the world. The Chicago-based company was founded in 1985 and has approximately 3 000 employees located in 168 offices in 30 countries.

"NAVTEQ's map data already play an important role in Nokia Maps service, which brings downloadable maps, voice-guided navigation and other context-aware web services to people's pockets. Now that the acquisition has been completed, this role will become even more important as context-aware Internet services grow," added Niklas Savander, Executive Vice President for Services & Software, Nokia.

Nokia Maps covers over 200 countries, with over 70 of them navigable. Nokia Maps 2.0 has improved its optional Car Navigation, enhanced its pedestrian navigation, added multimedia city guides, offers satellite images, and is sporting a redesigned user interface.

"Conergy has taken several steps to restructure its business and create a sustainable business model for the future," commented Nabeel Gareeb, MEMC's Chief Executive Officer. "This new agreement supports Conergy's move to a profitable business model, and will create a stronger partner for MEMC. Our amended contract fits in with Conergy's new vision and allows MEMC to reallocate the remaining portion of the wafer volume and further diversify our customer mix."

Conergy CEO Dieter Ammer commented: "We appreciate MEMC's flexibility in allowing us to adjust the agreement to our revised business model. We view MEMC as a key strategic partner for Conergy's long-term growth. The amendment gives us much more operational and financial flexibility as we move the company to be a profitable downstream specialist with one of the most international sales and distribution networks in our industry.

Schneider Electric and Bull Use Their Joint Skills to Launch New IT Energy Audit Services

PARIS, July 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Schneider Electric and Bull have combined their respective skills to form a partnership offering comprehensive data center energy audit services, designed to help organisations meet the challenge of energy efficiency.

These audit services will provide organizations with the indicators needed to define high performance, eco-friendly and sustainable practices in their IT activities and strengthen their environmental initiatives. Schneider Electric and Bull will combine their expertise in the areas of IT and power infrastructures management.

Under the terms of this agreement, Bull will market the offering in Europe.

Schneider Electric will rely on the leadership of APC by Schneider Electric in the datacenter environment.

"Environmental responsibility is still a relatively new phenomenon in business, explained Paul-Francois Cattier, Vice-President France, APC by Schneider Electric. IT Departments are aware that their datacenters are consuming a growing amount of power, and are increasingly seeking eco-friendly energy solutions, but do not necessarily know how to ensure that this new imperative is a core part of their strategy for investment in IT."

The audit methodology developed by Bull and Schneider Electric has four distinct stages:

- identifying potential economies of scale once the scope of the exercise has been established, - evaluating energy efficiency and confirming opportunities where savings can be made, - setting out recommendations that are consistent with the datacenter's energy profile, - supporting the customer in its implementation of an energy optimization strategy and in the achievement of performance objectives.

"Schneider Electric had longstanding experience in energy efficiency services and projects, noted Paul Hamilton, Schneider Electric's Energy Efficiency Program VP. We have successfully implemented a large number of projects in the construction and industrial sectors."

In October 2007, Bull unveiled its "Bio Data Center(TM)" concept: an innovative approach using an effective combination of servers and services to deliver performance, flexibility and sustainable development. This approach focuses in particular on curbing complexity and enhancing flexibility, in order to simplify and strengthen IT infrastructures, and ultimately reduce the data center's carbon footprint.

In this context, Bull's list of customer references includes numerous projects where the carbon footprint of IT facilities has been reduced by over 40%, and the virtualization/consolidation ratio is more than 15:1, with the number of low-workload servers being reduced and the optimization of virtualized servers to ensure they are working at 80% of their full capacity.

"This latest partnership reflects our vision of the Bio Data Center(TM), said Edgar Snoijink, General Manager of Bull Infrastructure Services and Support. It further strengthens our IT infrastructure expertise and allows us to offer a global and consistent service to our customers, enabling them in turn to implement ambitious green IT strategies."

About Bull, Architect of an Open World

As one of the leading European IT companies, Bull delivers open, flexible and secure information systems. The group helps public and private sector customers transform their information systems, applying its know-how and expertise in three main areas:

- Capitalizing on its extensive mainframe experience, Bull designs and produces robust, innovative and open servers, based on industry-standard technologies; - Building on its alliances with leading ISVs and long-standing involvement with Open Source, Bull develops and implements flexible and interoperable application infrastructures which give business processes the freedom to evolve; - Bringing together recognized expertise in end-to-end IT security, Bull secures data and exchanges that are so critical in preserving customers' business integrity.

PARIS, July 10 /PRNewswire/ --

Les deux sociétés annoncent que CareerBuilder fait l'acquisition du Groupe Les Jeudis.

Les marques du Groupe Les Jeudis conserveront leurs noms mais bénéficieront du marketing, des partenariats et de la technologie qui ont propulsé CareerBuilder en première position sur le marché américain. Président Directeur Général, Cédric Barbier continuera de diriger la société.

Les deux entités revendiquent un rapprochement stratégique prometteur.

CareerBuilder a commencé son expansion internationale à l'automne 2006, établissant sa présence grâce à la combinaison d'un développement interne, de partenariats et d'acquisitions en fonction des conditions du marché.

La société a lancé la création de sites internes au Canada, au Royaume-Uni, en Inde, en Espagne, en Allemagne, en Norvège, en Suisse, en Italie et en Roumanie. De plus, CareerBuilder a acquis des sites en France (les sites du Groupe Les Jeudis), en Suède (Jobbguiden.se), aux Pays-Bas (JobbingMall.nl) ainsi qu'en Grèce (Kariera.gr). CareerBuilder entretient également de solides partenariats en Chine avec 51Jobs, en Corée du Sud avec Incruit et en Asie du sud-est avec Gulf Talent.

Selon Farhan Yasin, ce partenariat permettra de rapprocher de façon dynamique et efficace les recruteurs et les candidats. << Ce résultat sera obtenu en alliant les nombreuses connaissances du secteur du recrutement en France détenues par le Groupe Les Jeudis, à la technologie, au service client et aux multiples carrières qui ont contribué à faire du site CareerBuilder.com le leader sur son marché aux Etats-Unis.>>, affirme-t-il.

<< Nous sommes ravis de nous rapprocher d'une société qui a les mêmes valeurs et qui attache un engagement profond dans l'innovation. Nous pensons que cela se traduira par des moyens amplifiés apportés aux recruteurs tout comme aux personnes à la recherche d'un emploi en France. >>, conclut Cédric Barbier.

This partnership now gives PureNet an opportunity to bring IPTV products and services to the universities in China using ZhengYuan's integrated debit and smart card technology as the primary billing format and marketing services to ZhengYuan's customer base. The Company spent several years researching its IPTV system to create this opportunity and is now in the right place at the right time and plans to aggressively move forward with its partner to bring these services to the universities throughout China. Management has spent a great amount of time and resources in the past several years in research and development of this technology and this is a major step in rebuilding the organization and creating value for its shareholders."

Mr. Chen Jian, Chairman of ZhengYuan stated, "We are very pleased to have finally, after two years of research and due diligence, reached an agreement with PureNet and look forward to a long and rewarding relationship that will bring the first of many IPTV systems in major universities throughout China utilizing our integrated technologies and substantial debit and smart card customer base. It is ZhengYuan's intention to quickly establish itself as the leading provider of high definition IPTV products and services beginning with the educational institutions in China. The joint venture company will have the expertise, technology and human resources to bring high definition digital IPTV services to China."

Simon Mou, President of PureNet.TV Hong Kong Limited stated, "With the Joint Venture now in place, the Company with its IPTV system and ZhengYuan's proprietary debit and smart card technology and large loyal customer base, is well positioned to have an immediate impact in bringing high definition television, high-speed Internet and other IPTV products and services to China. We will begin with marketing to students at China's universities and then expand to other market areas currently utilizing ZhengYuan's patented products. I look forward to this very exciting opportunity and working with ZhengYuan to quickly build an IPTV network in China."

The Company moved major operations to China in 1995 and played a significant role in the construction of the national backbones and provincial access networks for all of China's major national telecom carriers, including China Telecom, China Mobile, China Unicom and China Netcom. Since 1998, AsiaInfo has continued diversifying its product offerings and is now a major provider of telecom software solutions in China.
