Atinav's launchs aveLink Technologies
to enable a Connected World
Software that enables incompatible devices
to communicate over incompatible networks
New York, May 31,
2001– , a provider
of integrated networking technology tools that add compatibility
and communication connectivity, today launched aveLink,
new software technology that enables incompatible devices
to interact and communicate over incompatible networks.
aveLink is a framework technology
that allows heterogeneous devices or services to communicate,
share functionality and provide accessibility to any type
of network from browser/non-browser based clients. The
software allows devices and services incorporating different
standards (i.e. Jini, UPnP, etc.) to connect through different
networking technologies (i.e. Bluetooth, Home RF and IEEE
802.11, etc.) Using aveLink, the incompatible devices
or services form a temporary network that enables access
to the Internet, a LAN/WAN or a wireless network. The
product also provides an application development platform,
so service providers can quickly develop services using
multiple technologies.

“The true benefit to aveLink is its
ability to integrate multiple standards and technologies,
thereby alleviating the burden on the developer
of understanding all the different environments,”
said Kash Patel, CIO, Atinav. “We feel that the
aveLink product is uniquely placed to provide our
customers a development framework that can incorporate
future technologies without the need to rewrite
existing solutions.”

The first version of aveLink
supports Bluetooth, Jini, UPnP, WAP, and I-mode. The client
gateway (Embedded Gateway) of aveLink has been developed
using the OSGi standard. aveLink is designed in such a
way that new technologies (HomeRF, Salutation etc) can
be added easily.
Patel added: “As a company,
we see integrating technologies such as Bluetooth a tremendous
market opportunities in which we can capitalize, and we’re
excited that businesses are starting to embrace this new
standard. Cahners In-Stat Group expects shipments of Bluetooth-enabled
products to reach 955 million by 2005. This puts Atinav
at the cusp of a new era of Internet technology.”
aveLink can also integrate
seamlessly with Atinav’s aveComm and aveAccess products.
aveComm provides Java-based, feature-rich modules such
as Voice-over-IP, application sharing, white board, co-browsing,
HTML form sharing, and more. aveAccess is a Java-based
software that acts as a translator between the Internet
and any communication device (from traditional telephones
to PDAs to WAP phones). The software provides the ability
to access and translate Internet resources in real time
over any carrier network. By using these products in conjunction,
businesses will be able to complete the full range of
communication, collaboration and management activities
over the Internet—both PC-to-PC and device-to-device.
