EADS North America Defense
Test & Services and CPU Technology Announce Teaming
Agreement
Irvine,
CA and Pleasanton, October 8, 2007
-
EADS North America Defense Test & Services and CPU
Technology today announced that, effective immediately,
they have entered into a teaming agreement to offer
"Total System Life Management" technologies
for defense electronics applications. Total System Life
Management provides system-of-systems modeling and simulation
capabilities in real time, radically improving complex
system design, support, and redesign processes. Our
superior technology generates safer products with increased
performance and proven efficiency. As a result, customers
in the armed forces will benefit from superior products
with a lower acquisition cost, lower through-life support
costs, and much lower costs to redesign obsolete subsystems
and systems.
EADS North America Defense Test & Services brings
more than 45 years of experience in the design of instruments
and systems for commercial and defense applications
to the new team. "Our experience with military
communication and avionics systems, combined with the
recent success of EADS as a supplier of helicopters
and fixed-wing aircraft to the Department of Defense,
provide the foundation for offering this new technology.
We have combined our expertise in system engineering
with the powerful new technology developed by CPU Technology
to offer this solution to military supportability problems,"
remarked Jim Mulato, Executive VP, EADS North America
Defense, Test and Services.
CPU
Technology offers advanced system design technologies,
multiprocessor architectures and compatible System-on-a-Chip
implementation which yield products and solutions that
offer better performance, are more reliable, and require
less space and power than alternative embedded or general
purpose computing architectures.
"Our
compatible System-on-a-Chip means that we provide an
economically feasible technology migration to the customer,
because there is no software rewrite and the solutions
are 100% backward compatible," said Robert Beanland,
CPU Technology VP of Marketing.
"This
technology delivers performance and saves money, whether
you are redesigning an obsolete avionics module into
a smaller form factor or are doing a new design of a
complex system of systems and want to minimize life
cycle costs" added Mulato.
