CeBIT 2000: ProSyst Presents World's Smallest Jini Server

Controlling and providing Internet connectivity for a diverse array of 
home and business network devices, "mBedded Server" supports Jini and 
WAP technology with a memory requirement of just 99 KB


Cologne, 21.02.2000 - With "mBedded Server", the Java experts of 
Cologne-based ProSyst Software AG are presenting a new software product 
for controlling a diverse array of devices in home appliance business 
networks at CeBIT 2000, Stand A 47 in Hall 19. The "mBedded Server" 
supports Sun Microsystems' Jini Technology, as well as the Wireless 
Application Protocol (WAP), and allows the simple networking and 
Internet connection of various terminal devices, such as handheld 
computers, printers, PCs, mobile phones, television sets, stereo 
systems, refrigerators, heating and air-conditioning systems and alarm 
systems, etc. The ProSyst "mBedded Server" has a memory requirement of 
just 99 KB, meaning it can be installed in any device (e.g. modem, 
router or set-top box). From there, the "mBedded Server" can provide all 
other devices in a home network with a host of services, such as 
Internet, E-Mail, software updates and administration functions.


With its Jini Server and the 4 KB Jini Client already developed a year 
ago, which even fits in the memory of common chip-cards, ProSyst is 
focussing on a market for which analysts and market researchers forecast 
glowing growth potential. One of ProSyst's primary goals is to further 
develop this market, also on an international scale, and not only with 
its own branches, such as the Atlanta/Georgia office, but also via 
cooperation with partner companies, such as equipment manufacturers, 
content providers und Internet Service Providers. Only recently, SAP AG 
acquired a holding in ProSyst via its Venture Capital Fund.


The ProSyst "mBedded Server" is a base technology for networking devices 
in private households and businesses. Internet-based services and 
business applications can be accessed via the Jini Server and 
distributed to various terminal devices in a home network. In this way, 
home-banking can be realised on a gaming console, to name just one 
example. At the same time, the "mBedded Server" also serves as a 
platform for developing Jini Client applications. In addition to Admin
Service, Jini Container Service and Jini Lookup Service, Web Service, 
eMail Service and eBusiness Service will also be available.
