"By combining the incredible processing power of the Transmeta Crusoe CPU and its cool, low power operation with the ViA product expertise in man- wearable and embedded systems, we have once again set the standard for small, lightweight powerful computers to meet the diverse needs of mobile workers," said Ed McConaghay, Vice President of InfoLogix.
"Transmeta processors are ideally suited for innovative next-generation devices like InfoLogix's wearable computer," said Arthur L. Swift, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Transmeta Corporation. "With the Crusoe processor's small footprint, cool and fanless operation, low power consumption and high performance, it has enabled InfoLogix to develop one of the smallest and most powerful wearable computers currently available."
"All of us at InfoLogix are excited about this demonstration of our commitment to the development of the ViA computer product line we acquired earlier this year," said David Gulian, President of InfoLogix. "With the ViA computer's powerful compute engine, comprehensive I/O and sophisticated power management, coupled with its unparalleled packaging and systems integration flexibility, we have, for the first time, a platform that combines the full power of computing with the versatility of embedded systems. We anticipate the impact of this computer on the mobile computing market and InfoLogix to be extensive."
About ViA Computers
ViA IICT is the most powerful man-wearable, battery-operated, full Windows(R) computing system for mobile workers on the market today. ViA computers support Microsoft(R) Windows 2000(R) and Windows XP(R) operating systems for compatibility with thousands of existing applications and peripherals. With its advanced power management technologies including Transmeta LongRun(TM) and unique hot-swap smart lithium ion batteries, and optional outdoor readable displays, the ViA IICT delivers the most cost effective and versatile performance of any man-wearable computer available on the market today.
The ViA SR is designed for military programs, and similar very rugged operations, requiring a compact footprint, long battery life, high performance, sophisticated wireless I/O, voice recognition and real-time computing capabilities in a COTS system. Packaged in a super-rugged alloy enclosure with hermetic seals and LEMO F series connectors, the SR is available with either ruggedized rotating disk drives or solid state drives and is designed to operate in the severe environments encountered by infantry, special operations, armored vehicle, and naval vessel and aircrew personnel. ViA computers operate on smart lithium ion or standard issue U.S. Army BA5590 batteries.
The ViA Embedded computer has the power, small size and flexibility of the ViA IICT family of computers, but is mated with a family of docking stations and mounting brackets to suit the embedded computing needs of mobile cart and vehicle computing applications. AC/DC or DC-only operation with user selected LCD monitors and peripherals makes the ViA Embedded computer the perfect choice for compact, lightweight, extended all-day operation, mobile computing applications.
ViA computers provide mobile, wireless technology solutions that increase productivity and efficiency by giving people the ability to manage information whenever and wherever they work.

Digital zebrafish embryo provides the first complete developmental blueprint of a vertebrate
Researchers at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) have generated a digital zebrafish embryo - the first complete developmental blueprint of a vertebrate. With a newly developed microscope scientists could for the first time track all cells for the first 24 hours in the life of a zebrafish. The data was reconstructed into a three-dimensional, digital representation of the embryo. The study, published in the current online issue of
Science, grants many new insights into embryonic development. Movies of the digital embryo and the underlying database of millions of cell positions, divisions and tracks will be made publicly available to provide a novel resource for research and scientific training.

CERN openlab boosts the performance of LHC computing
The LHC Grid Fest, held last Friday at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland, and at several sites around the world, commemorated the readiness of the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG). At full capacity, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's largest particle accelerator, is expected to produce more than 15 million Gigabytes of data each year. Hundreds of millions of subatomic particles will collide each second, presenting a massive data challenge. The mission of the WLCG is to build and maintain the data storage and analysis infrastructure for this immense flow of data, thus helping physicists open new frontiers in our understanding of the Universe. This ambitious project connects and combines the IT power of more than 140 computer centres in 33 countries
