Heroku Announces New Enterprise Cloud Service for Java

Full-stack Java solution now available to developers without complexity and infrastructure costs of traditional software

Integration with Atlassian unites most popular developer productivity tools with most popular platform as a service

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- DREAMFORCE 2012 -- Heroku, a leading cloud platform as a service (PaaS) and a salesforce.com company, today announced Heroku Enterprise for Java, a new service for companies and IT organizations to build and run Java applications in the cloud. With Heroku Enterprise for Java, companies can now create and deploy mission-critical Java applications in minutes instead of months, as well as move their apps to a continuous delivery model, all without traditional software or infrastructure. Heroku Enterprise for Java is part of the Salesforce Platform, the world's leading enterprise cloud platform for next-generation social and mobile apps.

Java is the most widely adopted language in the enterprise, with millions of Java developers building and maintaining Java applications worldwide.  Traditionally, creating these applications has required piecing together both a range of development and runtime infrastructure tools--such as source code control systems, continuous integration servers, testing and staging environments, load balancers, application server clusters, databases and in-memory caching systems.  This painstaking process typically extends application building and deployment by months, taking developer attention away from their core focus of app development. With Heroku Enterprise for Java, for the first time, enterprise developers can get a complete Java solution in a single package, provisioned with a single click.

"Enterprise developers have been looking for a better way to easily create innovative applications without the hassle of building out a back-end infrastructure," said Oren Teich, COO, Heroku. "With Heroku Enterprise for Java, developers get all the benefits of developing in Java along with the ease of using an open, cloud platform in a single click."

As part of today's launch, Heroku is also announcing integration with products from Atlassian, the leading provider of collaboration software for product development teams. A new Heroku plug-in for Atlassian's Bamboo continuous integration service lets developers automate application delivery across all lifecycle stages: source code control, testing, staging and production deployment. More than 21,000 companies of all sizes already use Atlassian's issue tracking, collaboration, and software development products to work faster and smarter, together.

Features and Benefits

Heroku Enterprise for Java includes:

    --  Full-Stack Java: In addition to support for core Java JDK and JVM,
        including new support for JDK 7 and latest JDK 8 builds, Heroku
        Enterprise for Java provides a full stack of pre-configured systems
        needed to build scalable, high-performance, highly available
        applications.  This also includes memcache for session management and
        horizontal scaling, and Postgres for relational data management.
    --  Heroku Runtime:  In addition to providing runtime and management of the
        full stack of components, the service includes separate environments for
        development and staging.  Leveraging the capabilities of Heroku's PaaS,
        these environments can be provisioned instantaneously, providing a way
        for IT organizations to adopt rapid development methodologies with
        unprecedented ease.  As with other applications running on Heroku, these
        applications can be scaled to serve massive volumes with a simple
        control change.
    --  Continuous Delivery Framework: When combined with Atlassian's
        best-in-class continuous integration service, Bamboo, Heroku Enterprise
        for Java completely automates the application delivery process. From
        code check-in to test builds, staging deploys and production promotion,
        developers get a smooth out-of-the-box experience with no server set-up
        needed. All components are automatically provisioned and configured.
    --  Native Java Tools:  New with Heroku Enterprise for Java is native
        support for Eclipse, the popular Java IDE.  With the Eclipse plug-in,
        developers can create and deploy Java applications directly within their
        IDE.  In addition, Heroku now supports direct deployment of Java WAR
        files, providing a simple way to migrate existing Java applications to
        the cloud.
    --  Enterprise-Class Support: The service includes enterprise support,
        providing access to technical resources with guaranteed SLAs.  Optional
        24/7 support services are also available.

Comments on the News

    --  "The way we work has changed, but the technology most companies use to
        manage work is painfully out of date," said John Wookey, EVP of social
        applications, salesforce.com. "Work.com empowers teams to work better
        together by delivering the tools they need to stay aligned and motivated
        -- and integrating them with the systems where people actually work."
    --  "Work.com's social performance management platform combined with
        Workday's unified talent and HR solution answers the modern
        organization's need for a system of engagement - one that aligns and
        motivates employees to deliver better business results." said Amy
        Wilson, vice president of Workday HCM, Workday.
    --  "As skills become more and more scarce, aligning, motivating and
        retaining people within the walls of an enterprise is something all
        business professionals need to focus on--not just HR," said noted HCM
        analyst Jason Averbook, CEO of Knowledge Infusion. "Work.com is designed
        to enable that process as we continue to define and understand the
        future of work."
    --  "We believe real-time feedback, coaching and recognition are essential
        to improving the productivity of our sales reps and the continued growth
        of our business" said Mark Roberge, SVP of Sales and Services, HubSpot.
        "Work.com helps our sales managers and reps identify areas of
        improvement and work toward turning them into strengths."
    --  "Salesforce.com is providing us with tools to help evolve and enhance
        our performance-driven culture at 1-800 Flowers," said Maureen Paradine,
        SVP of HR, 1-800 Flowers. "Being able to recognize and reward our people
        in the moment for doing great work keeps them motivated to achieve their
        goals and deliver great results."
Transforming Work for the Social Revolution
Lost productivity costs enterprises in the U.S. $300 billion every year, according to the Gallup Organization. The reason: 79 percent of employees are disengaged from their work. Away from the office, Facebook and other social apps have transformed the way we connect and share information. Yet the systems most companies use to manage work were designed for the hierarchical, siloed, slow-moving workplace of the past. They automate legacy processes and painful reviews instead of improving productivity and results. And they often feel like work on top of work - completely disconnected from employees' daily jobs.

Just as salesforce.com revolutionized the way companies sell and service their customers, the company is now transforming the way people work with the introduction of Work.com.

Work.com focuses on the inherent social nature of performance management--goal setting, feedback, recognition and continuous dialogue--to help companies align, motivate and drive performance. Work.com liberates performance management from a top-down, once-a-year process into an integrated daily solution that makes a meaningful impact on business performance. Work.com empowers managers and teams to work better together in three key areas:

    --  Alignment -- Today's workplace is more fragmented than ever. We work
        remotely and virtually and have people spread across the globe. At the
        same time, the pace of business is accelerating, placing a premium on
        getting the right information to the right people as quickly and
        efficiently as possible. In fact, a recent study by Savo Group found
        that 40 percent of businesses suffer from poor alignment of messaging,
        sales tools and seller skills. With Work.com, teams can manage in
        real-time, drive alignment with social goals and solicit and receive
        ongoing feedback and coaching. Work.com social goals are also visible in
        Chatter, encouraging greater alignment, visibility and transparency
        across the enterprise.
    --  Motivation -- A recent study from Market Tools found that 76 percent of
        workers are unsatisfied with the amount of recognition they receive at
        work, while 77 percent said they would work harder if their efforts were
        better recognized. With Work.com, enterprises can create a culture of
        meaningful recognition at work. Now people can recognize colleagues with
        custom badges that reflect their company's unique culture and values.
        The recognition a person receives becomes part of their social profile
        in Salesforce, allowing people to build their reputation and enabling
        colleagues identify experts.
    --  Performance -- Performance reviews are among the most hated processes in
        business. A study by Reuters found that 80 percent of workers are
        dissatisfied with their performance reviews and would like to see them
        better reflect their real work. Work.com enables painless, productive
        reviews that actually improve performance by capturing all the
        achievements, recognition and feedback a person receives and calibrates
        performance across teams.
Work.com Bridges the Gap Between Management Tools and the Apps Where People Work
Now managers can drive alignment, motivation and performance directly from within Salesforce. People can see colleagues' goals, feedback and recognition inside Chatter or recognize great work from within a Sales Cloud opportunity record. With Work.com sales managers can onboard new reps more effectively and improve the productivity of their teams. Service teams can reduce agent churn and absenteeism to improve productivity and customer satisfaction, while marketers can track progress of their campaigns and collaborate more effectively with sales. Work.com employee social profiles reflect their expertise, goals and performance right inside Chatter, helping them build their reputation.

New Partnership with Workday Makes Performance Management More Social and Engaging
Today salesforce.com announced a partnership with Workday that enables seamless integration between Workday HCM and Work.com. With this integration, Workday HCM will deliver worker data including organizational relationships into Work.com's social performance management layer, empowering employees to manage performance through social goals, continuous feedback and recognition. Work.com will send performance feedback back to Workday's Talent Profile to be used in formal performance reviews, development planning or reporting. Now, joint Workday and salesforce.com customers will be able to keep employees engaged and motivated to deliver better results.

New Partnership with Amazon.com Seamlessly Integrates Work with Rewards
Also announced today is a new partnership with Amazon.com. Users will be able to reward great performance with Amazon.com gift cards directly from within Work.com. Recipients collect points awarded by managers and colleagues that can later be redeemed from the world's largest online marketplace.

With Work.com, managers and their teams can share priorities, continuously update the progress of key goals and recognize one another for great work -- encouraging an aligned, motivated, performance-driven workforce. Hundreds of companies including Facebook, LinkedIn, LivingSocial, Spotify, Virgin America and 1-800 Flowers have already transformed the way they manage people with Work.com.

Pricing and Availability

    --  Work.com is scheduled to be generally available in calendar Q4 of this
        year. Pricing and packaging will be announced at general availability.
    --  Salesforce Rypple is currently available today. Pricing starts at $5 per

Comments on the News

    --  "Mobile and social technologies have sparked a revolution in the way
        that companies connect with customers to grow their businesses," said
        Linda Crawford, EVP and GM of Sales Cloud, salesforce.com. "And mobile
        and social innovations like Salesforce Touch and Chatter Communities for
        Partners are just the latest examples of the relentless focus on
        customer success that has made the Sales Cloud the world's #1 sales
        app."
    --  "The social revolution has created a data explosion-and businesses must
        leverage that data to grow their business," said Andy MacMillan, senior
        vice president and general manager, Data.com. "Built especially for
        Salesforce, the Data.com Social Key will empower companies to derive
        value from social data for the first time, directly within the world's
        #1 sales app."
    --  "Social is all about relationships and we're a relationship bank," said
        Steve Ellis, executive vice president, Wells Fargo Wholesale Banking.
        "Salesforce is one tool we are using that helps us connect across the
        company in order to deepen customer relationships."
Salesforce Touch: The Power of Salesforce on any Device
A mobile and social revolution is taking place, sparking staggering growth in mobile device usage across enterprises. The number of tablets deployed in the workplace is expected to increase 48 percent annually over the next four years for a total of 96 million enterprise tablets by 2016, according to Infinite Research.

Salesforce.com led the industry in the shift to mobile CRM with native Salesforce Mobile and Chatter Mobile apps and is now extending its leadership with the launch of Salesforce Touch. Salesforce Touch enables employees to easily enter, access and collaborate around data in Salesforce by making it accessible immediately. Powered by HTML5, Salesforce Touch is optimized for tablets and phones including Amazon Kindle, iPhone, iPad and Android devices. Sales reps can now increase productivity by taking advantage of even the smallest periods of downtime to quickly log follow up action items after a meeting, uncover information to prepare for an important presentation or get an approval needed to move a deal forward. Salesforce Touch lets reps spend more time connecting with customers and selling, and less time entering and accessing data, so they can close more deals.

Chatter Communities for Partners: Connecting to Drive Growth
Many companies drive significant revenue via indirect sales channels, but legacy partner portals typically lack the tools they need to effectively collaborate. New Chatter Communities for Partners, built on the Chatter Communities platform, is the next generation portal-an interactive social community to enable companies to quickly and easily create multiple private, branded communities in the context of business process-all with the trusted security and sharing model of Salesforce. Now companies, along with their partners, suppliers and distributors, will be able to create custom communities to drive more sales through seamless deal registration, access to proven sales tools and collaboration with the right experts.

Data.com Social Key: The Missing Link Between Contact Data and Social Networks
The unprecedented growth of social networks has created an explosion of new kinds of data, further compounding the challenges of how companies unlock the value of business data. Since its inception, Data.com has helped businesses engage customers by unleashing the power of traditional data to target prospects. Now, Social Key will unite the best context from social networks with the business framework of traditional data, enabling enterprises to build even stronger relationships with customers and close more deals, faster. By harnessing real-time public social data like tweets, blogs and YouTube videos, companies now have a view into what a customer talks and cares about. By linking that information with traditional data like employer and phone number, enterprises will have the data perspective necessary to develop deeper connections with customers.

i-parcel Announces Successful Opening of Midwest and United Kingdom Facilities

BURLINGTON, Mass., Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- i-parcel, a leading international air express company catering exclusively to ecommerce merchants, has opened two new facilities.  Located in Indianapolis, IN and Camberley, Surrey, United Kingdom, both facilities were created due to new and existing demand from Midwest US and EU ecommerce merchants.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120919/NY76597LOGO)

i-parcel's signature Preferred service offers US and now EU ecommerce merchants:

    1. Fully Landed Costs in the Shopping Cart through our own proprietary
       technology platform
    2. International deliveries with multiple scanning events and delivery
       confirmation
    3. Delivery in 5-7 working days to most major international locations
    4. Automatic compensation for loss, damage or undue delay
    5. 24/7/365 in-sourced customer service
    6. Extremely competitive delivery costs, decreasing cart abandonment and
       stimulating checkouts
    7. Optional multi-currency payment, currency localization and credit card
       fraud screening modules
i-parcel's non-asset based international air express network offers significant improvements on the traditional asset based integrated international parcel delivery model when it comes to the needs of ecommerce merchants.  High delivery costs, COD charges for duties and taxes and a delivery network formed around delivering to business addresses during business hours doesn't serve the needs of consumers who shop online.

i-parcel was formed to meet exactly these needs and is now in its third successful year of business.

Until recently, i-parcel's value proposition was only truly viable to merchants located on the East and West coasts of the US with existing offices in New Jersey and California.  Opening in the Midwest and UK has allowed i-parcel to expand its network to serve a much greater number of merchants.

AT&T 4G LTE Available In Metro Detroit

Customers to benefit from ultra-fast mobile Internet on the latest LTE devices

DETROIT, Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --  AT&T* has turned on its 4G LTE network in Metro Detroit, bringing customers in Macomb, Oakland, Washtenaw and Wayne counties the latest generation of wireless network technology. Watch here to see several of the benefits AT&T 4G LTE provides, including:

    --  Faster speeds. LTE technology is capable of delivering mobile Internet
        speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G. Customers can stream, download,
        upload and game faster than ever before.
    --  Cool new devices. AT&T offers several LTE-compatible devices, including
        new AT&T 4G LTE smartphones and tablets, such as the Motorola ATRIX (TM)
        HD, Sony Xperia (TM) ion, HTC One(TM) X, Samsung Focus® 2, Nokia Lumia
        900, Samsung Galaxy Note(TM), and Pantech Element(TM) tablet.
    --  Faster response time. LTE technology offers lower latency, or the
        processing time it takes to move data through a network, such as how
        long it takes to start downloading a webpage or file once you've sent
        the request. Lower latency helps to improve services like mobile gaming,
        two-way video calling and telemedicine.
    --  More efficient use of spectrum. Wireless spectrum is a finite resource,
        and LTE uses spectrum more efficiently than other technologies, creating
        more space to carry data traffic and services and to deliver a better
        network experience.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120612/DA23287LOGO)

"21st century jobs require 21st century infrastructure and that means advanced technology and fast connections," said Lt. Governor Brian Calley.  "High tech investment from great partners like AT&T is helping make Michigan's economic comeback possible.  Thanks to investments like these, local job makers are staying connected better and faster than ever before, helping Michigan compete in the global economy."

AT&T's 4G Network
AT&T's innovation and investment has resulted in the nation's largest 4G network, covering 275 million people with ultra-fast speeds and a more consistent user experience. That's coverage in 3,000 more 4G cities and towns than Verizon.

"We continue to see demand for mobile Internet skyrocket, and our 4G LTE network in Metro Detroit responds to what customers want from their mobile experience -- more, faster, on the best devices," said Jim Murray, president, AT&T Michigan.

AT&T is the only U.S. service provider to deploy two compatible 4G technologies to deliver more speed to more customers. Our 4G LTE network delivered faster average download speeds than any of our competitors in PCWorld's most recent 13-market speed tests.

AT&T's 4G LTE network delivers speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G**, as well as multiple innovations that optimize the network for performance. Our network's radio components are placed close to the antenna at most cell sites, instead of inside the base station, which helps minimize power loss between the base station and antenna and, in turn, improves the performance of our 4G LTE network. The network also is designed with its core elements distributed across the country, which helps reduce latency, or the delay when using the Internet, because your request isn't traveling as far.

Even as AT&T continues to expand its 4G LTE coverage in 2012 and 2013, customers can get 4G speeds outside of 4G LTE areas on our 4G HSPA+ network, unlike competitors, where customers fall back to slower 3G technologies when outside of LTE coverage.

AT&T's focus to deliver the best possible mobile Internet experience goes beyond 4G to embrace additional connection technologies. AT&T operates the nation's largest Wi-Fi network*** including more than 30,000 AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spots at popular restaurants, hotels, bookstores and retailers across the country. Most AT&T smartphone customers get access to our entire national Wi-Fi network at no additional cost, and Wi-Fi usage doesn't count against customers' monthly wireless data plans.

AT&T also is a leading developer of Distributed Antenna Systems, which utilize multiple small antennas to maximize coverage and speed within stadiums, convention centers, office buildings, hotels and other areas where traditional coverage methods are challenging.

Over the past five years, AT&T invested more than $115 billion into operations and into acquiring spectrum and other assets that have enhanced our wireless and wired networks. Since 2007, AT&T has invested more capital into the U.S. economy than any other public company. In a July 2012 report, the Progressive Policy Institute ranked AT&T No. 1 on its list of U.S. "Investment Heroes."

**Limited 4G LTE availability in select markets. Deployment ongoing. 4G LTE device and data plan required. Up to 10x claim compares 4G LTE download speeds to industry average 3G download speeds.

NICE and Asteros Implementing Advanced Security Solutions for the City of Sochi to Meet Growing Public Safety Needs

NICE's Integrated Security Portfolio Will Ensure Safety, Security, and Smooth Operations in a City set to Host Millions of Visitors in the Coming Years for Some of the World's Greatest Sporting Events

RA'ANANA, Israel, September 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    NICE Systems (NASDAQ: NICE) announced today that it is implementing its Surveillance
portfolio in the city of Sochi, Russia, as part of its "Safe City" initiative for
mitigating security, safety, and operational risks. Having been chosen to host multiple
prestigious sporting events, including the FIA Formula One World Championship(TM) in Sochi
in 2014, and being one of the candidate cities to host the 2018 FIFA World Cup, the
Russian resort town of Sochi foresees a significant influx of visitors and accelerated
growth in the coming years.

    Using NICE's Safe City solutions, Sochi will be able to more efficiently manage city
operations, optimize its law enforcement resources, and enhance public safety for its
citizens and visitors. The city of Sochi is deploying the complete NICE Surveillance
portfolio. This includes NICE Situator, a holistic situation management solution;
NiceVision Net 2.5 IP Video Surveillance, which will span over 1,400 channels; NICE
Inform, to enable multimedia incident debriefing and simulation investigation; NICE video
analytics and audio recording; and the NiceVision Web application, which can be used by
field agents and police to access live and playback video feed for enhanced security
operations.

    "We are extremely excited to be hosting these world famous sporting events in Sochi
and are committed to ensuring that the city is safe and secure," said Sergey Cherepov,
Director of The Situation Monitoring Center of Sochi. "The coming years will witness rapid
population and economic growth in Sochi, broadening the safety and security challenges as
well as increasing the requirements and complexity of everyday city operations. We are
confident that NICE, together with its partner, Asteros, will provide the comprehensive
solutions to meet our extensive requirements and scaling needs."

    To enhance the management of its daily operations, the city of Sochi has set up an
integrated command and control center that includes 40 NICE Situator workstations. With
implementation well underway, the city's law enforcement authorities are using NICE
Situator to build a common operating picture for all stakeholders as well as create an
automated response plan with adaptive workflows. All of Sochi's surveillance cameras have
already been hooked up to NiceVision, in order to provide visual documentation of all
incidents city-wide.

    The implementation of this sophisticated technology by NICE, in collaboration with
Asteros, will enable the city of Sochi to monitor its urban operations and thereby address
security, safety, and operational risks. Specifically, Sochi law enforcement authorities
will be able to automatically detect overcrowding, unattended baggage, and perimeter
intrusions. Consequently, the city will be able to provide advanced protection to critical
infrastructure and public buildings, monitor, detect, and manage traffic congestion and
illegal parking, and prevent loitering and overcrowding situations in public buildings and
commercial areas.

    "We are proud to be the city of Sochi's comprehensive solution of choice for securing
its citizens and visitors," said Yaron Tchwella, Security President and EVP Business
Operations at NICE. "NICE's participation in the Safe City project is a testament to our
expertise in large-scale critical deployments as well as to the ability of our
pre-integrated solution to support safety and security while also promoting improved
operations."

    Tigran Pogosian, Deputy General Director of Strategy Projects at MegaFon OJSC, the
main contractor on the project, said: "The unique surveillance system, based on the
MegaFon network, will provide 24-hour monitoring of the city's main roads, buildings, and
popular resort locations. This in turn will enable high responsiveness among law
enforcement bodies, emergency services, the Federal Security Service, and the Ministry of
Emergency Situations (EMERCOM) to any unfolding incidents and at the same time will
enhance the quality of life of local citizens and resort guests."

    "Sochi's Safe   ity project is a significant implementation of an emergency control
center and video surveillance platform. It will provide additional advantages to the
police force, law enforcement authorities, and emergency and city operation services to
help them reduce the number of offences and ensure public safety," said Andrey Cheremnykh,
President of the Asteros Group.

    The NICE Security Offering addresses the needs of governments and enterprises with
intent-based solutions for fighting crime and terror, by anticipating, managing and
mitigating safety, security and operational risks. The solution enables capture, analysis
and correlation of data from multiple sensors and systems, including audio, video, radio,
geo-location and web, providing a framework for fusing data silos into a single, holistic
operational view. NICE Security solutions empower organizations to act effectively in real
time to prevent, manage and investigate incidents, ensuring fast resolution and
debriefing, and continuous security improvements. NICE Security solutions are deployed
worldwide in transportation systems, critical infrastructures, city centers and enterprise
campuses.

RTX technology utilizes real-time GNSS corrections from a global reference station network to compute centimeter level positions based on satellite orbit and clock information.

The announcement was made today at the ION GNSS 2012 Conference and Exhibition.

"While standard autonomous GNSS position solutions provide accuracies in the 1 meter range, Trimble RTX can achieve accuracies at the centimeter level - anywhere on or near the earth's surface," said Patricia Boothe, general manager of Trimble's Positioning Services Division. "Combining global coverage, fast initialization times, and high-accuracy correction data, RTX technology provides GNSS users unprecedented, operating freedom. We are committed to offering field-proven correction technologies that can satisfy a variety of users needs across applications and markets, from agriculture to infrastructure."

RTX Technology in Infrastructure Hardware 

The Trimble NetR9 reference receiver provides advanced global correction data with the addition of Trimble RTX technology. Receiving corrections via either L-Band satellite or IP (cellular) communications, high-accuracy absolute positioning can now be achieved worldwide for coordinate and tectonic monitoring. The NetR9 with RTX is ideal for establishing or monitoring CORS station coordinates and static operations for survey campaigns.

"The extensive coverage and delivery options provide opportunities in environments where corrections historically have not been available," said Ulrich Vollath, general manager of Trimble's Infrastructure Division. "Used standalone or as part of a larger network of receivers, onboard RTX technology enables faster setup/deployment, increased efficiency in daily routines, and the confidence of knowing that corrections are available wherever the receiver may need to be deployed."

RTX Technology in Infrastructure Software

Trimble Pivot(TM) software is an advanced platform for Infrastructure apps that supports a range of capabilities to serve various markets. Within the Infrastructure portfolio, two key applications--Trimble Pivot RTX Real-Time App (RTX) and Trimble Pivot RTX Postprocessed (RTX-PP) App--offer the advantages of absolute positioning techniques using Trimble RTX technology to provide users with centimeter-level real-time position accuracy.

The new Infrastructure apps are ideal for establishing or monitoring station coordinates in Real Time Networks (RTN), measuring station movement for earthquake, volcano, landslide, dam or other monitoring applications, and also providing kinematic and/or static/filtered positions.

Trimble Pivot RTX App is designed to perform absolute position monitoring in real-time for a network of receivers. This is particularly helpful when operating a network for CORS receivers which may be used in an RTN or for monitoring applications. The Trimble Pivot RTX App uses a software based RTX engine, so that the receivers which are to be monitored do not require RTX capability onboard. Using GNSS data streaming from a receiver, the Pivot RTX App applies RTX corrections in real-time, monitoring the reference station position.

Trimble Pivot RTX-PP App is designed to perform position monitoring in postprocessing mode. The Pivot RTX-PP App provides highly accurate position results based on the RTX postprocessing technique. This enables precise determination of initial coordinates for CORS or measurement of displacements after station movement. The Pivot RTX-PP App supports different processing modes: static or kinematic. The static mode enables users to receive highly accurate absolute positions, while the kinematic mode allows users to process data to obtain position measurements during periods of station movement.

The Trimble NetR9 reference receiver with RTX technology and the Trimble Pivot RTX and Trimble Pivot RTX-PP Apps are available now.

HomeInsurance.com Launches A Home Buyer's Guide to Home Insurance

New resource helps guide home buyers through the home insurance shopping process

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Today HomeInsurance.com launched a new resource, A Home Buyer's Guide to Home Insurance, as a tool for first time homebuyers who are seeking home insurance shopping advice. The Guide offers tips to steer them through the home buying process and save time and money.

A Home Buyer's Guide to Home Insurance, written by insurance experts, explains the necessity of having a solid insurance policy and contains information about how to spend less on a premium while still getting great value. The manual identifies features of a home that could trigger savings on home insurance premiums and outlines the process of buying coverage in six sections, including "Discounts You Should Be Asking For (But Probably Aren't)" and "Shop Smart: Questions Every Home Insurance Buyer Should Ask."

"So often homebuyers will jump into the first policy they are quoted because they mistakenly believe that all homeowners policies are created equal," said Carlos Lagomarsino, Founder of HomeInsurance.com. "Coverage and premiums can actually vary greatly from one policy to the next. A Home Buyers Guide to Home Insurance aims to educate first time home buyers so that they can get the best coverage possible at rates they can afford."

The Guide is also available to professionals who frequently work with first-time homeowners, such as realtors and mortgage brokers who may co-brand the Guide and use it as a resource for clients. For convenience and versatility, it is available in three formats: an infographic that can be embedded onto a website or blog; an HTML version that can be linked to; and a PDF that can be co-branded and used on any website or blog.

Home insurance is designed to protect homeowners from covered disasters and help them in the event someone has an accident on their property. Lenders require home buyers to purchase home insurance as part of the mortgage process.

Wendia Sets The Bar For Service Management With POB Hybrid(TM), Providing On-Premise, Cloud or Hybrid-Platform Support

-Wendia Unveils Industry's First True Hybrid Solution, Offering On-Premise, Cloud or Hybrid Platform Options Through Dynamic Platform Delivery-

SUNDANCE, Utah, Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Is on-premise or cloud the better way to deliver service management to an organization? How about both, or the ability to choose your favorite aspects of each? Wendia, the innovative leader in IT service management, has raised the bar for advanced ITIL-compliant service management with today's announcement of POB Hybrid, and the ability for customers to move or modify their software platform as needed through Dynamic Platform Delivery(TM).

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120918/LA76557LOGO)

Dynamic Platform Delivery allows Wendia to deliver the popular POB (Point Of Business) solution through whatever platform or set of options will suit their unique requirements the best. Only Wendia is able to give customers the flexibility to move back and forth between cloud and on-premise installations as their needs and circumstances evolve.

For example, a large organization with extensive IT capability may prefer POB On-Premise(TM), as a means of conducting high customization to their service management alternatives on-site. Smaller organizations may prefer the lighter IT footprint and the service/pricing options of POB In The Cloud(TM). However, companies who are growing fast, who are highly distributed, or who are contracting and re-tooling in reaction to a changing economy are finding it highly advantageous to have the ability to evolve from premise to cloud, from cloud to premise, or to combine the aspects of both as their needs continue to change.

For example, companies such as Wendia customer Canyon Park Technology Center, in Orem, Utah, want to have their service management secured and located within their own company, but prefer to have Wendia manage their installation for them, in essence creating their own "private cloud."

"Canyon Park has used Wendia POB for more than three years," says Allen Finlinson, Canyon Park's President. "We love having POB installed in our datacenter, on our own machines, while having our software administered and managed entirely by Wendia.  We don't have to worry about maintaining a POB trained resource or even keeping the application maintained; Wendia does that for us." 

"Wendia's customer service and professional administration of our POB system is excellent.  The POB Hybrid alternative is ideal for us," Finlinson said.

"Most providers offer only on-premise or cloud-based solutions," said Hal Tueller, CEO of Wendia's U.S. operations. "In a few cases, the largest vendors offer the choice of premise or cloud based software--however, their large corporate and channel structures don't allow for customers to modulate from one to the other easily, or to create a custom solution that incorporates both. Our ability to innovate quickly is a great advantage to our customers. I strongly believe it's why we're moving so quickly, and is one of the biggest reasons we're experiencing faster POB adoption than ever before."

POB is based on the popular .NET development platform and embodies 20-plus years of experience and six generations of best-in-class service management and ITIL support.

About Wendia

Wendia is a global software company that specializes in robust, ITIL-compatible on-premise, cloud-based or hybrid-platform IT service management solutions. Wendia's flagship product, POB (Point Of Business), covers a spectrum of services ranging from analysis, evaluation and optimization of existing service processes to implementation and training of customized solutions for one employee or millions of users, based on POB.

Easy-to-Use, Multi-Vendor Wireless Display has Arrived: Wi-Fi Alliance® Launches Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Miracast(TM)

On the go or at home, users can display video, pictures, and applications instantly between certified devices from any brand

AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Wi-Fi Alliance(®) today announced the launch of the Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Miracast((TM)) certification program. Miracast devices provide simplified discovery and setup, so users can quickly transmit video content from one device to another. Industry analysts predict annual shipments of Miracast-certified devices to exceed one billion units within the next four years.

(Logo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20070516/SFW029LOGO)

Miracast users can do things like view pictures from a smartphone on a big screen television, share a laptop screen with the conference room projector in real-time, and watch live programs from a home cable box on a tablet. Miracast connections are formed using Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Wi-Fi Direct((TM)), so access to a Wi-Fi(®) network is not needed - the ability to connect is inside Miracast-certified devices.

"Wi-Fi users around the world want to experience multimedia on the device of their choice - no matter what brand - and Miracast is the breakthrough they have been waiting for," said Edgar Figueroa, CEO of Wi-Fi Alliance. "We have been delighted with the level of enthusiasm and support among our member companies for this new offering."

Miracast supports protected content streaming, enabling devices to stream feature films and other copy-protected materials. To protect premium content, Miracast uses a wireless adaptation of the trusted content protection mechanisms widely used today for cabled interfaces like HDMI(®) and DisplayPort. In addition, the latest WPA2(TM) security protections are automatically enabled on every device, making the transport of all multimedia content private.

"Miracast builds on Wi-Fi Direct with a compelling application," said Brian O'Rourke from IHS iSuppli Research. "This is a big step forward in a market migration from single-vendor display solutions, into an offering from a wide array of vendors. With more than 1.5 billion Miracast devices expected to ship in 2016, the program is poised to have broad adoption."

The technology underlying Miracast was developed in Wi-Fi Alliance by a diverse group of mobile and consumer electronics manufacturers and silicon vendors to standardize methods for simplified video sharing. Based on the Wi-Fi Alliance Display Specification, products bearing the Miracast brand interoperate across vendors, making it easy to enjoy video on screens throughout the home or office.

The first products to be designated Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Miracast, and which form the test suite for the certification program, are:

    --  Broadcom Dualband 11n WiFi
    --  Intel® WiDi
    --  Marvell Avastar USB-8782 802.11n 1x1 Dual-band Reference Design
    --  MediaTek a/b/g/n Dualband Mobile Phone Client, MT662X_v1 and DTV Sink,
        MV0690
    --  Ralink 802.11n Wireless Adapter, RT3592
    --  Realtek Dual-band 2x2 RTL8192DE HM92D01 PCIe Half Mini Card and RTD1185
        RealShare Smart Display Adapter
The first consumer products certified since testing opened to vendors include the LG Optimus G smartphone, Samsung Galaxy S III smartphone and Samsung Echo-P Series TV.

More information, including a list of Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Miracast products, the Wi-Fi Alliance Display technical specification, white paper, and more is available at http://www.wi-fi.org/miracast.

Broad industry support for Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Miracast

"As a Wi-Fi market leader, Broadcom is honored to be one of the primary certification solutions for the Wi-Fi Alliance Miracast(TM) program and is committed to driving new Wi-Fi standards," said Dino Bekis, Senior Director, Wireless Connectivity Combo Group at Broadcom. "The standardization of this technology will enable consumers to easily and seamlessly share content across the ever-growing landscape of connected devices."

"Users clearly expect that they should be able to move their content and applications freely at home, at work, in the classroom, and on the go," said Joe Van De Water, Director of Consumer Product Marketing at Intel.

Good Technology Unveils New Services to Help Companies Build Best-in-Class BYOD Programs

New Service Offerings Detail BYOD Policy Construction and Transition Services

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Good Technology(TM), the leader in secure enterprise mobility solutions, today unveiled two new professional service offerings designed to help organizations quickly and easily transition to a bring-your-own-device (BYOD) mobile infrastructure and establish appropriate BYOD policies. The new services--BYOD Policy Construction and Transition Services-are available immediately to companies globally.

According to a survey by Forrester Research, Inc., 72 percent of North American and 60 percent of European information workers already pay for all or part of their monthly data plans simply to have the freedom to use their personal device at work[1].  Today's 'consumerization of IT' pressures--where employees are demanding access to corporate data on their personal devices --creates new challenges for IT.  Structured BYOD programs are a way to leverage consumer mobile device and application innovation to enhance employee productivity, while keeping enterprise data secure.

As a leader in enabling BYOD environments for the FORTUNE 100 and beyond, Good Technology has the experience not only to help companies jumpstart defining their BYOD Policies, but also to assist IT departments plan an efficient transition from their current infrastructure.

"We talk with a lot of customers who have been thinking about implementing a BYOD program but don't know where to start, or how to finish and roll out. Others had been planning for a three-year transition, but are now challenged to potentially implement a BYOD program and migrate all mobile employees in just six months," said Allen Spence, Vice President of Worldwide Professional Services, Good Technology. "When you're dealing with global customers like ours, who are converting thousands of employees to new technologies, it can be a daunting project, and extremely resource intensive. Our BYOD services provide our existing and new customers with expertise and the frameworks to roll out successful BYOD programs."

Good's new BYOD Policy Construction and Transition Services are geared towards customers that want to tap the productivity and cost benefits of BYOD, but are grappling with how to navigate the business, legal, financial, and HR questions needed to reach agreement by cross-functional stakeholders outside IT and roll out a successful BYOD offering.

    --  Offer industry and peer data, as well as best practices, to inform
        Policy decisions
    --  Accelerate decision-making
    --  Drive consensus within an inter-disciplinary team, including
        representation from HR, Finance, Legal, Security, Regulatory Compliance,
        Purchasing, Global Privacy, and Employee Communications
    --  Balance the security interests of the employer with the employees'
        concerns around privacy
    --  Tailor a standalone BYOD policy to the organization's unique culture,
        workforce, and risk management profile
    --  Complete the BYOD Policy Statement, and End-User Agreement, ready for
        executive ratification and adoption
Good's Transition Services provide customers with a dedicated consultant who works with them to:

    --  Define success criteria
    --  Forecast the number of BYOD that need to be provisioned and launch
        demand-generation programs
    --  Map out the steps necessary for an efficient rollout
    --  Define and recommend process and infrastructure improvements where
        needed
    --  Oversee the implementation
    --  Track progress of end-user support issues, server and software
        performance
    --  Train all program participants with target attendees and delivery
        schedule
    --  Advise on a communication plan to outline when and how the transition
        will occur
    --  Perform a final readiness review to ensure the company is prepared to
        execute the Transition Plan

AT&T 4G LTE Available In Seattle

Customers to benefit from ultra-fast mobile Internet on the latest LTE devices

SEATTLE, Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T* has turned on its 4G LTE network in Seattle, bringing customers the latest generation of wireless network technology. Watch here to see several of the benefits AT&T 4G LTE provides, including:

    --  Faster speeds. LTE technology is capable of delivering mobile Internet
        speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G. Customers can stream, download,
        upload and game faster than ever before.
    --  Cool new devices. AT&T offers several LTE-compatible devices, including
        new AT&T 4G LTE smartphones and tablets, such as the Motorola ATRIX (TM)
        HD, Sony Xperia (TM) ion, HTC One(TM) X, Samsung Focus(®) 2, Nokia
        Lumia 900, Samsung Galaxy Note(TM), and Pantech Element(TM) tablet.
    --  Faster response time. LTE technology offers lower latency, or the
        processing time it takes to move data through a network, such as how
        long it takes to start downloading a webpage or file once you've sent
        the request. Lower latency helps to improve services like mobile gaming,
        two-way video calling and telemedicine.
    --  More efficient use of spectrum. Wireless spectrum is a finite resource,
        and LTE uses spectrum more efficiently than other technologies, creating
        more space to carry data traffic and services and to deliver a better
        network experience.
(Logo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120612/DA23287LOGO)

"We continue to see demand for mobile Internet skyrocket, and our 4G LTE network in Seattle responds to what customers want from their mobile experience -- more, faster, on the best devices," said Mike Maxwell, AT&T's Vice President/General Manager.

AT&T's 4G Network

AT&T's innovation and investment has resulted in the nation's largest 4G network, covering 275 million people with ultra-fast speeds and a more consistent user experience. That's coverage in 3,000 more 4G cities and towns than Verizon.

AT&T is the only U.S. service provider to deploy two compatible 4G technologies to deliver more speed to more customers. Our 4G LTE network delivered faster average download speeds than any of our competitors in PCWorld's most recent 13-market speed tests.

AT&T's 4G LTE network delivers speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G**, as well as multiple innovations that optimize the network for performance. Our network's radio components are placed close to the antenna at most cell sites, instead of inside the base station, which helps minimize power loss between the base station and antenna and, in turn, improves the performance of our 4G LTE network. The network also is designed with its core elements distributed across the country, which helps reduce latency, or the delay when using the Internet, because your request isn't traveling as far.

Even as AT&T continues to expand its 4G LTE coverage in 2012 and 2013, customers can get 4G speeds outside of 4G LTE areas on our 4G HSPA+ network, unlike competitors, where customers fall back to slower 3G technologies when outside of LTE coverage.

AT&T's focus to deliver the best possible mobile Internet experience goes beyond 4G to embrace additional connection technologies. AT&T operates the nation's largest Wi-Fi network*** including more than 30,000 AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spots at popular restaurants, hotels, bookstores and retailers across the country. Most AT&T smartphone customers get access to our entire national Wi-Fi network at no additional cost, and Wi-Fi usage doesn't count against customers' monthly wireless data plans.

AT&T also is a leading developer of Distributed Antenna Systems, which utilize multiple small antennas to maximize coverage and speed within stadiums, convention centers, office buildings, hotels and other areas where traditional coverage methods are challenging.

Over the past five years, AT&T invested more than $115 billion into operations and into acquiring spectrum and other assets that have enhanced our wireless and wired networks. Since 2007, AT&T has invested more capital into the U.S. economy than any other public company. In a July 2012 report, the Progressive Policy Institute ranked AT&T No. 1 on its list of U.S. "Investment Heroes."

*AT&T products and services are provided or offered by subsidiaries and affiliates of AT&T Inc. under the AT&T brand and not by AT&T Inc.

**Limited 4G LTE availability in select markets. Deployment ongoing. 4G LTE device and data plan required. Up to 10x claim compares 4G LTE download speeds to industry average 3G download speeds.

Thanks to a complete redesign of the internal architecture, the volume and weight of the new PS3 has been reduced by more than half compared to the very first PS3 model with a 60GB HDD, and by 20% and 25% respectively compared to the current PS3. By adopting a sliding disk cover, the new PS3 continues with the characteristic sleek curved body design, which fits various places in the home and enables users to enjoy an array of entertainment content.

With the extra HDD capacity which has been extended from 320GB and 160GB, users can store and enjoy more and more entertainment content including games, music, photos, and video on the new PS3.  In addition, the new PS3 with 12GB flash memory offers opportunities to experience the world of PlayStation® at an affordable price point.  Users can also expand the storage capacity of the 12GB flash memory PS3 by connecting a dedicated HDD (250GB) to be released concurrently with the new model(5).  In addition, a variety of accessories will be introduced by SCE to meet various kinds of needs from users including a vertical stand that offers more flexibility in how the new PS3 can be displayed(*6).

Since the launch of PS3 in November 2006, the number of BD-based titles has reached more than 3,300 titles and more than 4,100*(7) downloadable PS3 games are available worldwide, thanks to support from a broad range of third party developers and publishers.  In addition to this extensive software title line-up, exciting and attractive new titles are to be released from third party developers and publishers as well as SCE Worldwide Studios, including Assassin's Creed III (Ubisoft Entertainment.), Call of Duty Black Ops 2 (Activision Publishing, Inc.), Madden NFL 13 (Electronic Arts Inc.), PlayStation® All-Stars Battle Royale, LittleBigPlanet Karting, God of War: Ascension (Sony Computer Entertainment), and more.

SCE will further accelerate the expansion of the PS3 platform which is in the 7th year of its lifecycle, by continually releasing a vast library of exciting and attractive software titles and offering users a choice from a variety of hardware models.

AT&T 4G LTE Available In Pittsburgh

Customers to benefit from ultra-fast mobile Internet on the latest LTE devices

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T* has turned on its 4G LTE network in Pittsburgh, bringing customers the latest generation of wireless network technology. Watch here to see several of the benefits AT&T 4G LTE provides, including:

    --  Faster speeds. LTE technology is capable of delivering mobile Internet
        speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G. Customers can stream, download,
        upload and game faster than ever before.
    --  Cool new devices. AT&T offers several LTE-compatible devices, including
        new AT&T 4G LTE smartphones and tablets, such as the Motorola ATRIX (TM)
        HD, Sony Xperia (TM) ion, HTC One(TM) X, Samsung Focus(®) 2, Nokia
        Lumia 900, Samsung Galaxy Note(TM), and Pantech Element(TM) tablet.
    --  Faster response time. LTE technology offers lower latency, or the
        processing time it takes to move data through a network, such as how
        long it takes to start downloading a webpage or file once you've sent
        the request. Lower latency helps to improve services like mobile gaming,
        two-way video calling and telemedicine.
    --  More efficient use of spectrum. Wireless spectrum is a finite resource,
        and LTE uses spectrum more efficiently than other technologies, creating
        more space to carry data traffic and services and to deliver a better
        network experience.
"We continue to see demand for mobile Internet skyrocket, and our 4G LTE network in Pittsburgh responds to what customers want from their mobile experience -- more, faster, on the best devices," said J. Michael Schweder, president, AT&T Mid Atlantic.

AT&T's 4G Network

AT&T's innovation and investment has resulted in the nation's largest 4G network, covering 275 million people with ultra-fast speeds and a more consistent user experience. That's coverage in 3,000 more 4G cities and towns than Verizon.

AT&T is the only U.S. service provider to deploy two compatible 4G technologies to deliver more speed to more customers. Our 4G LTE network delivered faster average download speeds than any of our competitors in PCWorld's most recent 13-market speed tests.

AT&T's 4G LTE network delivers speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G**, as well as multiple innovations that optimize the network for performance. Our network's radio components are placed close to the antenna at most cell sites, instead of inside the base station, which helps minimize power loss between the base station and antenna and, in turn, improves the performance of our 4G LTE network. The network also is designed with its core elements distributed across the country, which helps reduce latency, or the delay when using the Internet, because your request isn't traveling as far.

Even as AT&T continues to expand its 4G LTE coverage in 2012 and 2013, customers can get 4G speeds outside of 4G LTE areas on our 4G HSPA+ network, unlike competitors, where customers fall back to slower 3G technologies when outside of LTE coverage.

AT&T's focus to deliver the best possible mobile Internet experience goes beyond 4G to embrace additional connection technologies. AT&T operates the nation's largest Wi-Fi network*** including more than 30,000 AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spots at popular restaurants, hotels, bookstores and retailers across the country. Most AT&T smartphone customers get access to our entire national Wi-Fi network at no additional cost, and Wi-Fi usage doesn't count against customers' monthly wireless data plans.

AT&T also is a leading developer of Distributed Antenna Systems, which utilize multiple small antennas to maximize coverage and speed within stadiums, convention centers, office buildings, hotels and other areas where traditional coverage methods are challenging.

Over the past five years, AT&T invested more than $115 billion into operations and into acquiring spectrum and other assets that have enhanced our wireless and wired networks. Since 2007, AT&T has invested more capital into the U.S. economy than any other public company. In a July 2012 report, the Progressive Policy Institute ranked AT&T No. 1 on its list of U.S. "Investment Heroes."
