London, UK – April 20, 2010 – DeviceLock, Inc., a worldwide leader in endpoint data leak prevention software solutions, today announced that the iPhone® local synchronisation filtering technology built into DeviceLock 6.4.1 controls local data transfers between Apple’s new iPad® and DeviceLock-protected endpoint computers. DeviceLock customers are able to define and enforce permissions for this new tablet computer with the same high degree of flexibility and granularity already applied to iPhone® and iPod® touch mobile devices, as well as other types of smartphones, PDAs, and removable storage gadgets. “DeviceLock customers already have the enforcement technology in place to protect themselves from users locally copying sensitive data from a Windows endpoint to an iPad and from the loss of control over that data should the iPad user then store or send it to destinations that are even further outside the protected confines of the corporate network,†said Ashot Oganesyan, DeviceLock CTO and Founder. “The iPad is positioned as a digital book reader, video player, and gaming platform. But, with its bigger screen, keyboard, and a well-funded application development community, iPad buyers are equipped to not just consume content, but to create content - and for knowledge workers that means to work. However, the IT security impacts need to be taken into consideration and policy set with regard to iPad use. DeviceLock can easily be configured to enforce accepted-use policies for local data communications with iPad by using the 'iPhone'-related configuration controls in any DeviceLock v6.4.1 administration console. It delivers an unprecedented level of completeness and quality of local synchronisation control.†DeviceLock’s patent-pending local synchronisation filtering technology gives security administrators the ability to centrally control which types of data specified users or their groups are allowed to synchronize between corporate computers and locally connected iPads, iPhones and iPods. DeviceLock also can recognise and filter numerous data object types for the iTunes® protocol, thus empowering administrators to selectively allow or block synchronisation of files, email accounts, contacts, tasks, notes, calendar items, bookmarks, and various media types. DeviceLock provides scalable, centralised, and easy-to-learn management and administration via a customised Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in that natively integrates with Group Policy Object Editor in Microsoft Active Directory. DeviceLock agents can be deployed, managed and administered completely from within an existing Microsoft Active Directory domain. A separate component, the DeviceLock Enterprise Server (DLES), is available for centrally auto-collecting audit and shadow data from protected endpoints. Highly-granular event logging and data shadowing configurations are supported for tracking and analysing user actions on peripheral ports/devices, related system events and data transferred to peripheral devices. In addition, DLES can monitor remote DeviceLock-managed computers in real-time to check on agent status and policy template consistency. DeviceLock’s comprehensive mix of configurable policy parameters and options facilitates the definition and enforcement of a “least privilege†corporate IT security policy. With DeviceLock, IT security administrators are equipped to logically profile the business role of every employee, group or department with regard to their use of local PC ports and peripheral devices, keeping each to the minimal set of operations required to perform their role. This reduces the overall risk of data leaks and helps organisations to better comply with applicable IT security regulations and industry standards. -Ends- About DeviceLock, Inc. Since its inception in 1996 as SmartLine, DeviceLock, Inc. has been providing endpoint device control software solutions to businesses of all sizes and industries. Protecting more than 4 million computers in more than 60,000 organisations worldwide, DeviceLock has a vast range of corporate customers including financial institutions, state and federal government agencies, classified military networks, healthcare providers, telecommunications companies, and educational institutions.

April 15 2010 - SCHEMA ST4 is the only technical documentation oriented product from Germany that was represented in the study "Global Content Management" by the US consulting company Common Sense Advisory. Altogether, 16 different solutions, from open-source products to component-based content management systems (CCMS), were examined. Among other areas, SCHEMA ST4 convinced analysts in the area of content management. The study covered four different factors necessary for successful global content management. In the multilingual content support category, SCHEMA's software came in third together with EMC Documentum, behind DocZone and IBM FileNet. For international companies to successfully position themselves, global content management strategies, i.e. adapting product information and company presentation to individual target markets, are the decisive factors. According to assessments by the Common Sense Advisory consultants, last year in Germany alone more than a billion US dollars were spent on language services. In their study on global management, viable solutions, along with the most common content management systems, were presented and evaluated in this context. Web content management and technical content management emerged as the most important areas of application. System Requirements for Global Content and Processes For the creation of content and texts it is important in global content management that systems comfortably support the capture of content as well as subsequent processing, translation, and management. Texts in various languages – including those with non-Latin alphabets – should be easy to publish. Typically, translation and localization are integrated into workflows, so that the exchange of content between systems needs to work seamlessly. Data standards such as TMX or XLIFF, as well as other text standards such as DITA (Darwin Information Typing Architechture) ensure this. In this area, SCHEMA ST4 achieved one of the highest scores with 3.25 of a possible 4.00 points, on the same level as EMC Documentum and behind DocZone and IBM FileNet. SCHEMA ST4 also scored extremely well in the area of process support. Comparing systems, the consultants examined how integrated the workflows are, how easy the exchange of project data, and how well the integration with language technologies are handled. Here SCHEMA ranked only 0.63 points behind the front-runner. Services and Support by System Providers Another central aspect of the study was the services and support by the providers. For software interface and user guide localization and customer service and technical support, among doc-oriented systems the global players EMC Documentum and IBM FileNet had the highest scores, followed by SCHEMA ST4. In regards to multiregional rollout scenarios, SCHEMA still has one or two tasks to accomplish. "We are in the process of implementing our internationalization strategies," comments Stefan Freisler, CEO and responsible for marketing at SCHEMA GmbH. "We are very well prepared for the English-language regions. In the US, for example, SCHEMA ST4 is in use at Philips Healthcare." Future Developments in Global Content Management Where are we headed? No IT solution is an island, say the Common Sense Advisory consultants. This is especially true for content management systems, the content and texts of which can be used in various departments, or even across an entire company. When selecting a system, therefore, it is very important to ensure an easy integration into the IT environment. Above all, the system should possess standard interfaces to professional translation management solutions. Also very important for the future is the ongoing integration of content component management into the complete product lifecycle management portfolios of classical DMS and ERP providers. SCHEMA – Complex Documents Made Easy! SCHEMA GmbH was founded in 1995 by a team of IT and documentation spe[censored]ts in Nürnberg, and is represented by over 60 employees in four locations. SCHEMA's flagship standard software is the XML-based editing and content management system SCHEMA ST4, offering efficient features for all aspects of creating, managing, and publishing complex and large amounts of documentation. Its scalability makes it suitable for small editing teams as well as for company-wide solutions for information logistics. SCHEMA ST4 is successfully deployed across a wide range of industries to manage all tasks around complex documentation including technical documentation, software documentation and help systems, catalogs, labeling for pharmaceutical companies, solutions for specialized publishers, contract and bid management. Integrating SCHEMA ST4 into modern IT environments is simple: implemented in Microsoft .NET Framework, it supports the entire bandwidth of documentation-relevant standards (XML, XSL:FO, DITA, etc.) and boasts a wide range of interfaces (MS Office, Adobe CS, SAP, Documentum, SharePoint). A wide network of partners enables SCHEMA to offer specifically tailored solutions for the various needs of customers and industry. Among the numerous customers already using SCHEMA ST4-based solutions are: ABB, Agilent, Avaloq, Bosch, Boehringer Ingelheim, Bundesanzeiger Verlagsgesellschaft, Carl Zeiss, Daimler, InterComponentWare, Lindauer Dornier, Lufthansa Systems, MAN, Reifenhäuser, Schaeffler Gruppe, Siemens, Österreichische Bundesbahnen, Philips, STOLL, T-Systems, Voith and Wolffkran.

London – 1 February 2010 – Hitachi Consulting UK today announced the successful migration and consolidation of the corporate Management Information Systems (MIS) for Whitbread PLC. Hitachi Consulting created a 1.5 terabyte Data Warehouse using Oracle Warehouse Builder, transforming analysis and reporting capabilities across its hotel and restaurant businesses by providing better business insight, sales and margin analysis and strategic planning, which delivered a six-figure return on investment over 12 months. Whitbread is the UK's largest hotel and restaurant company operating market-leading businesses in the budget hotels and restaurant sectors. Its brands include Premier Inn, Beefeater, Table Table, Brewers Fayre, Taybarns and Costa Coffee. The group employs more than 33,000 people and serves 9 million customers every month in its 1,800 outlets across the UK. The Data Warehouse delivers a single customer view of business performance of key data across its hotel and restaurant businesses, which accounts for 90 percent of group revenue. As a result of the successful rollout, Hitachi Consulting is currently embarking on a similar project for Costa Coffee, the largest and fastest growing coffee shop chain in the UK. “In my opinion, Hitachi Consulting is one of the few organisations I met that had what I could see as true experts in the MIS arena, which is why we selected them to design, migrate, implement and manage our MIS consolidation,” said Andrew Brothers, Information Systems and Change Director for Whitbread. ”Hitachi Consulting absolutely gets it. They’re very business focused first and foremost, and provided us with pragmatic solutions within our budget constraints. They’re extremely skilled and know a lot about Oracle, in particular. They have a very good way of recruiting people who seem to be the best at what they do, which is why we’re continuing to work with them on additional engagements in other areas of our business.” Hitachi Consulting created a 1.5 terabyte Data Warehouse, comprising more than 1.5 billion rows of data across the company’s hotel business, restaurant business, its Commercial Division, as well as its Labour and HR Division. The system was built using Oracle Warehouse Builder, Oracle 10g database, and Oracle Business Intelligence. The solution enables Whitbread to analyse data and KPIs in multiple ways by manipulating data more effectively and providing better reporting at the executive level across the group. More than 600 reports are now generated every week and remotely accessed by more than 400 users, providing more accurate data and better insight into business performance. In addition to planning and implementing the data consolidation, Hitachi Consulting is also providing ongoing service management for Whitbread. The scoping exercise to transform the MIS systems for Costa Coffee is currently in its initial stages and is expected to rollout in 2010. ### About Hitachi Consulting Corporation As Hitachi, Ltd.'s (NYSE: HIT) global consulting company, with operations in the United States, Europe and Asia, Hitachi Consulting is a recognized leader in delivering proven business and IT strategies and solutions to Global 2000 companies across many industries.

The software component vendor The Imaging Source, recently released the new version, 15.1, of the word processing component family TX Text Control. One of the new features of the components for Visual Studio 2005 and 2008 is that all colors TX Text Control uses for the display elements can now be changed. Also, a fully featured built-in drag and drop support was implemented. In addition, the insertion mode and positioning of inserted images and text frames can now be changed programmatically. Additionally, a new Image constructor accepts a System.Drawing.Image object, which is used to initialize the TXTextcontrol.Image object, which allows developers to insert images from memory. The development team improved the image rendering quality and display performance significantly. Also, image formats are automatically maintained or can be adjusted programmatically using the SaveSettings class. Finally, the ZoomFactor of a TextControl is no longer limited to 400 percent and the functionality of the mouse wheel has been extended to scroll the visual part of the document horizontally and zoom the document.

London – 26 November, 2009 – Hitachi Consulting United Kingdom today announced that it has completed the second phase, including warranty period, of Bupa UK Membership’s comprehensive technology transformation project, known as SWIFT Phase 2. The project, which is the largest .NET Smart Client commercial application in Europe, successfully went live in August within Bupa’s Corporate and Personal insurance business unit. The massive legacy migration exercise replaced numerous legacy systems with a single advanced Solutions Platform. Built on a .NET architecture and an Oracle 10g database, the new platform is designed to provide Bupa with lower total cost of ownership, faster and easier systems changes, and reusable components to dramatically reduce timescales and enable reuse of key functionality across all business units. The project is part of Bupa’s programme designed to implement new business processes which include: enabling faster introduction of more flexible health insurance products; standardising the business processes and technology used to allow more flexible staffing; streamlining systems to eliminate duplicate data entry and accelerate processing (e.g. reducing time to invoice to less than one day); reducing payment of invalid claims through codification of all policy rules; improving customer service through better and faster access to information and processing; and improving overall management information. SWIFT Phase 1 included the technology transformation of Bupa’s business unit responsible for small-to-medium-sized companies, which Hitachi Consulting UK successfully completed two years ago. SWIFT Phase 2 includes systems for all member records, claims handling, provider payments to hospitals, claims adjudication and quotations for Bupa’s Corporate and Personal insurance business unit. “We had grown into a legacy IT environment that was 20 years old and we needed a complete update of our systems in order to keep pace with our current and future business requirements,” said Paul Bridge, Bupa’s UK Insurance Change and IS Director. “Making changes to the old system was an extremely complex and time consuming exercise, and it was difficult to get a holistic view of the data. Hitachi Consulting’s extensive experience of enterprise solution delivery, combined with their technical understanding and business insight ensured the successful completion of this project.” More than 60 consultants from Hitachi Consulting UK worked on the project, which included business process redesign, custom development, business consultancy, testing, programme management, as well as project management. Hitachi Consulting UK oversaw the creation of more than four million lines of .NET code and an Oracle database containing over three billion rows of data. In addition to enabling the decommissioning of the legacy applications and a mainframe, Hitachi Consulting integrated the new technology platform with Web Servers and XML to connect to a myriad of other internal and external systems. The new system now supports 2,500 online Bupa users. Bupa has also retained Hitachi Consulting UK to provide ongoing support. Steve Anderson, Managing Vice President Solutions at Hitachi Consulting added, “This massive technology transformation exercise is the latest in a number of strategic consultancy engagements we have completed with Bupa. SWIFT Phase two provides Bupa with a unified set of business processes to enable dramatic improvements in how the business operates, bring new products to market and holistically manage its data across the entire Bupa UK Membership. We’re delighted to help facilitate Bupa’s strategic business objectives and change management programme.” ### About Hitachi Consulting Corporation As Hitachi, Ltd.'s (NYSE: HIT) global consulting company, with operations in the United States, Europe and Asia, Hitachi Consulting is a recognized leader in delivering proven business and IT strategies and solutions to Global 2000 companies across many industries.

Nürnberg. The new version of SCHEMA ST4 features several highlights, among them the possibility for unified presentation of technical documentation, a new product information management (PIM) module, and more flexibility for the layout of text and graphical elements. In addition, this XML-based editing and content management system now offers extended reporting functionality, allowing users to uncover hidden potential for content reuse. The fully automated conversion of graphics is another option that has been added to the extended features of the new SCHEMA ST4. The software now supports the new EPUB format for the easy display of documentation on mobile devices. SCHEMA GmbH is presenting the new version of SCHEMA ST4 at the tekom annual conference, November 4-6 2009 in Wiesbaden (hall 1, booth 114). SCHEMA GmbH has integrated an interactive designer in the new version of SCHEMA ST4, allowing for the creation of a consistent layout for all target formats. The user defines how text elements will be presented, selecting font type and size, and formatting. This information will be reused for all publications, whether for print, online or PDF formats, guaranteeing a unified presentation. Version 3 of SCHEMA ST4 also features rule-based conversion of high-quality graphics to standardized sizes. In addition, graphics that are already stored in the editing and content management system can be converted in batches. The user defines for these graphics what size, resolution and format the online, print or electronic versions should have. When generating the publication, SCHEMA ST4 uses these settings for all graphics. SCHEMA ST4 With New PIM Module SCHEMA ST4 now has its own PIM module. This allows product data, e.g. technical ratings or prices, to be maintained easily and used directly in documentation. Alternatively, the product data can be imported into the editing system from an ERP system via an interface (e.g. the standardized DPC connector from SAP). The data is hierarchically structured by attributes or characteristics in SCHEMA ST4. For example, one structure might contain all machines belonging to one group, including their model ranges. Each product can have different attributes or characteristics that can be inherited by subordinate groups. For product data classification, various classification systems are available. In the case of the descriptive models ETIM and eCl@ss for the electronics industry, the valid attributes for a product are defined by the classification. An export interface allows product data to be exported to MS Excel where the data is displayed as tables classified according to defined attributes. These tables can then be used in documentation, e.g. for presenting technical properties. SCHEMA ST4 also boasts additional features which allow for the creation of relationships between information modules. From a web of phrases, relevant content can be matched, and the phrases then used for navigation and searching. More Flexibility in Positioning Text and Graphics SCHEMA ST4 has been furnished with new features allowing users to create appealing layouts for such publications as flyers or product brochures. With a template editor, individual elements, e.g. pictures or text, can be easily positioned. Finding Reuse Potential – Reducing Translation Costs The reporting functionality has been extended once again in the new version of SCHEMA ST4. Users can now find out the degree of reuse for text modules. This evaluation can be made on a project basis or for all documentation. The results are displayed graphically in several variants. "The higher the rate of reuse, the less text needs to be translated," explains Stefan Freisler, CEO of SCHEMA GmbH. "With our extended reporting functionality, companies can clearly recognize unused potential for reuse and thus reduce their translation costs." SCHEMA ST4 now also supports the EPUB format (acronym for electronic publication). EPUB is an open standard for e-books from the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF). In August 2009, Google announced that in the context of its "Google Book Search" one million books are already available in EPUB format. Not only for publishers but also for technical documentation EPUB is a promising format for the future. About SCHEMA: Founded in 1995 by documentation experts, this Nuremberg software company specializes in XML-based solutions for editing teams. With over 60 employees in four locations, SCHEMA implements professional systems for small and mid-size editing teams as well as solutions for company-wide information logistics.

London – 3 November, 2009 – Hitachi Consulting United Kingdom today announced the successful implementation of Betfair’s new financials analytics capabilities. Hitachi Consulting had previously been Betfair’s systems integrator for Microsoft’s BI Suite. This ongoing initiative takes data from Betfair’s Sun financial system, integrates it into a structured Oracle data warehouse solution, where it is then accessed by Microsoft BI to deliver valuable KPIs back to the business. This is one of the first real-time systems to replicate data from an Oracle data warehouse and build Microsoft Business Intelligence cubes in near real time. Betfair, the world's biggest online betting community, is striving to become the pre-eminent betting platform for the Internet. After launching the world's first successful online betting exchange in June 2000, Betfair has grown into a multi-billion dollar business with an established portfolio of online gaming products including [censored], casino and games. The company now has in excess of two-and-a-half million registered customers with over 50 percent of all new registrations coming from outside the UK and Ireland. “I had personally worked with Hitachi Consulting UK in a previous company and have been consistently impressed with the caliber of their self-motivated consultants,” said Chris Newstead, Head of Business Intelligence for Betfair. “I knew the Hitachi Consulting team would be able to hit the ground running and integrate well with our other teams. Their expertise around Oracle data warehouse and Microsoft’s suite of Business Intelligence will aid us in working toward a successful implementation. The application will transform the speed and efficiency with which users can analyse business performance and drill down into detail. The use of a familiar tool such as Excel 2007 to report directly from BI data makes this a valuable planning and reporting investment for analysts and non-analysts alike.” The project is in the final stages of testing and is scheduled to go live in early November 2009. By addressing the internal data integration issues and eliminating the need for manual intervention, the new system will provide substantial traction for Betfair’s finance team, and deliver valuable, real-time data for other areas of departments, including marketing, to help drive business performance.

Data Management and Compliance Screening spe[censored]ts, Datanomic Ltd, today announced that Business Link West Midlands (BLWM) has deployed its dn:Director data management application to improve the accuracy of data held in its customer relationship management (CRM) system. By significantly improving the fitness-for-purpose of data flowing into and out of the system, dn:Director is enabling BLWM to improve overall customer service levels. The system also forms a central part of BLWM’s reporting processes with Central Government, on which its funding is based. BLWM provides an extensive range of support services and advice to anyone looking to start or grow their business within the region. Having assisted approximately 108,000 companies and 56,000 pre-starts in the region, with close to a million records of contacts alone, BLWM needed to ensure that all customer data held within its CRM system was truly fit-for-purpose. It also wanted to improve the accuracy of its reporting, the flexibility and scalability of the system, the speed of data migration and to reduce the significant and ongoing admin and financial costs associated with its existing manual system, the delays and inaccuracies from which were impacting upon customer satisfaction levels. “We had recognised that duplicate data was an issue, which was impacting our customer satisfaction,” said James Salmon, Chief Information Officer, Business Link West Midlands. “We needed to automate certain functions that were taking significant manual resource, including ad-hoc data matching requests, vali[censored] incoming referrals and leads, analysing key data fields, weekly profiling of key data areas, data migration and consolidation. We needed a system which could meet all of these requirements, would scale with the needs of the business, while still enabling us to enhance third party data, be it from partners or Government bodies.” Following a market evaluation of vendors, BLWM selected Datanomic’s dn:Director based on its superior functionality, ease of use and intuitive interface. The application is currently used by the Data Integrity team on behalf of the rest of the organisation. “We believe dn:Director is the most flexible product on the market,” said Mr Salmon. “Since implementing, we were quickly able to profile our data to get a better understanding of the relevant data quality issues. We have significantly reduced duplicates in the CRM system, and dn:Director’s automation has reduced manual effort, lowering costs and enabling the team to spend time on more effective customer service. The system provides us with in-depth analysis resulting in trusted outputs and reporting processes, negating the historic issues of fields with unverified or blank data. Consequentially, we have seen an increase in relevant and verified data.” About Business Link West Midlands Business Link provides impartial and expert information, support and advice needed to help businesses develop and make them more successful.

AvanZer has launched an advanced, cost-effective enterprise workflow solution that enables organisations to create a complete repository for all work-based processes to eliminate expensive and slow paper-based systems cost-effectively. AvanZer automates paper-based processes and provides a complete repository for all corporate processes – such as policies, requests and procedures – to reduce paper-based form approval from days to a matter of minutes. AvanZer provides an intuitive and incredibly easy to use interface which means that even non-technical staff can create complex, new electronic forms to support critical business needs. The solution is fully compatible with the latest PDAs and hand-held computers for remote approval. AvanZer is a highly powerful enterprise workflow tool that provides sophisticated functionality that matches many of the leading workflow solutions on the market at a fraction of the price. The system means companies have complete electronic workflow for all documents – from creation to publication – around the enterprise underpinned by strong security and authentication features – only the right people see, revise and approve the right documents or constituent components. Compared with rival solutions, that can take months to configure and install, AvanZer is fully installed and live in only days. “AvanZer provides advanced workflow tool creation and automation processes without the necessary expense. A key benefit is that AvanZer can be simply installed, embedded into a company’s IT systems and fully utilisable for staff with simple training, inside three days. Leading rivals, for instance, require another component to allow forms creation, which can cost up to £20,000 in licensing and consultants costs and take months to get up and running,” comments Alan Clarke from AvanZer. Organisations utilising AvanZer have experienced significant business benefits by eliminating inefficient paper processes, automating repetitive tasks and providing a complete audit trail for policies or tasks that travel across the organisation. As non-technical personnel can quickly and easily create comprehensive electronic workflow forms, AvanZer puts the process owners – not the IT department – in control. This intuitive approach means that paper-based forms can finally be eliminated and every department can experience the benefits of automating administrative processes. AvanZer provides a comprehensive range of functionality including: sending documents for electronic review and approval; automating and tracking repetitive tasks; reminders and escalations for task assignments and electronic support forms; comprehensive report tools for any task; and search and retrieval across all forms, processes and policies. The workflow solution is ideal for compliance requirements – such as Sarbanes Oxley / IS0. “AvanZer empowers customers to quickly identify and eliminate labour intensive paper-based processes to reduce approval times from days to minutes. Its flexibility means that it benefits every function within an organisation. Some departments – such as HR – find the technology indispensable because they can now automate complex tasks and have a real-time, single view on business processes that were formerly fragmented,” says Alan Clarke from AvanZer. AvanZer is based at: 31 St Petersburgh Place, London W2 4LA. Telephone: 0207-853-2270. Email: sales@avanzer.com ENDS For further press information: Richard Vaux, Cobalt Blue. Tel: 01252 792734.

(Berlin) Just under 220 attendees from 13 countries, high-powered keynote speakers, fascinating user reports and T-Systems as the 100th member: the third International PDF/A Conference was a complete success for the PDF/A Competence Center. This year’s event demonstrated once more the growing importance of PDF/A. International projects show that this format for long-term archiving is finding acceptance worldwide. As PDF/A becomes more established, the PDF/A Competence Center membership continues to increase. The association was pleased to welcome T-Systems at the symposium as its 100th member. “For increasing numbers of companies and public authorities, the introduction of PDF/A is no longer a question,” stated Harald Grumser, CEO of the PDF/A Competence Center. “It is more a matter for the persons responsible to find the right ways and strategies. Here the user reports from various sectors were an excellent source of information for those attending the symposium. Once again the PDF/A Competence Center succeeded in attracting outstanding speakers for its conference. Bernhard Zöller from the management consultancy Zöller & Partner GmbH explained, for example, why PDF/A is the first choice for format consolidation. PDF/A has particularly clear advantages for archiving colored documents. Stephen Levenson, an IT spe[censored]t for strategy and planning at the administrative office of the US courts in Washington, explained how his institution minimized the costs of migration by using PDF/A. Leonard Rosenthol, a PDF standards architect at Adobe Systems, gave a keynote speech with interesting information on the continued development of the ISO standard for long-term archiving of PDF documents, in which he emphasized that PDF/A-1 will remain a valid format and is fully upward compatible with PDF/A-2. “Generally, PDF/A-1 will continue to be used even after PDF/A-2 is adopted. PDF/A-2 should only be used if it is really necessary to do so because of corresponding technical advancements,” said Rosenthol. The two user presentations also found great resonance. Jacob Bielfeldt from the health insurance provider Techniker Krankenkasse showed how his organization introduced PDF/A throughout the company in phases. Dr. Silke Stapel from the EU Publications Office reported on the successful conversion to PDF/A in the digital library. Each of the parallel tracks for subject and sector issues went into detail. Legal aspects to consider for long-term archiving or storage of e-mail sparked particular interest, as did discussions of the efficient use of metadata and the differences between PDF/A-1a and PDF/A-1b. The concluding panel discussion which included representatives from the professional associations AIIM, Aproged and VOI underscored the growing international spread of PDF/A. For example, in recent months the governments of Argentina, Brazil, China and Uruguay have adopted PDF/A as a national standard for digital long-term archiving. Betsy Fanning from the AIIM explained how in the USA, many states are developing regulations for the use of PDF/A. In Europe PDF/A is already established in numerous countries. Just before the symposium, T-Systems joined the PDF/A Competence Center as its hundredth member. Altogether the professional association now has 101 members from about 20 countries. About PDF/A The ISO 19005 standard (PDF/A) defines requirements for creating documents suitable for archiving based on the widely available PDF format. The standard specifies in detail what content is allowed and what is not. These and other specifications are intended to ensure long-term readability of the documents regardless of the application software and operating system in which they were originally produced. The advantages of PDF/A such as full-text search capabilities have led it to already replace TIFF as the preferred archiving format in numerous international governmental organizations as well as in private industries. About the PDF/A Competence Center The PDF/A Competence Center was established as an international association in 2006. The objective of the association is to promote the exchange of information and experience in the field of long-term archiving in accordance with ISO 19005 (PDF/A). The management board is composed of executives from callas software GmbH, Compart AG, intarsys consulting GmbH, LuraTech Europe GmbH, PDF Tools AG (CH), PDFlib GmbH and SEAL Systems AG. Within less than three years, more than 100 companies and various experts from about 20 countries have joined the PDF/A Competence Center. The executive chairman is Harald Grumser, CEO of Compart AG, Dr. Hans Baerfuss, CEO of PDF Tools AG, Switzerland, is the executive vice-chairman.

Chelmsford, MA, Cambridge, UK and Swindon, UK – June 23, 2009 – Airvana, Inc. (NASDAQ: AIRV), ip.access, and Ubiquisys today announced that the three companies have pledged to support the Services Special Interest Group (SIG) recently formed by the Femto Forum by working together towards a common service framework and application program interfaces (APIs). The Services SIG’s mission is to develop a framework to simplify the development and deployment of femtocell applications, which includes efforts to establish a set of standard APIs. As widely recognised supporters of a femtozone applications development environment based on open standards, Airvana, ip.access and Ubiquisys have already begun working together to advance the goals of the Services SIG. Femtocells sit at the intersection of multiple networks including mobile, Internet, home and office - all of which are fundamental to people’s lives. The intelligence within the femtocell, for example presence and digital content visibility, can be used by application logic residing in any of these networks. The SIG’s work will help the industry establish a framework that encompasses all of these options and establish a common approach. Several unique attributes of femtocell technology make the devices highly suited for supporting an interesting array of applications. First, they change the economics of mobile data by providing massive bandwidth indoors to mobile devices at very low cost. Second, femtocells make sophisticated presence-based applications simple for not only users of cutting edge smart phones but also everyday legacy feature phones. And finally they make it easy for people to share their digital content across various previously isolated networks. "Femtocells open the door for exciting applications that can deliver a new, and highly valuable dimension to how customers use their mobile devices," said Simon Saunders, the Femto Forum’s Chair. "To see femtocell vendors come together in this way is a powerful validation of the potential femtozone services have to change the way both mobile operators and their subscribers view mobile devices." An open development environment based on freely accessible, standard APIs is critical to drive developer interest and create greater opportunities for the widespread adoption of femtozone applications. Airvana, ip.access, and Ubiquisys are dedicated to ensuring that application developers have access to this type of open framework and invite developers and other industry vendors to support this effort. "Femtozone applications greatly expand the value femtocells can deliver to both mobile operators and their subscribers beyond the already recognised improvements in indoor voice coverage and packet data user experience," explained Dr. Vedat Eyuboglu, CTO of Airvana. "Femtozone applications allow the femtocell to become the center of the connected digital home by bridging consumers’ mobile and home environments. This is why we are joining forces with ip.access and Ubiquisys in the advancement of femtozone applications through our involvement in the Femto Forum’s Services SIG." "We believe collaboration on femto services is the right approach," said Dr. Nick Johnson, CTO of ip.access. "The power of the femtocell as a platform for new services can only be fully realised if femtocell vendors cooperate to create an open, standards based development environment. The Femto Forum provides an ideal place for us to work alongside other vendors who share the same commitment." "Femtocells are intelligent devices that blur traditional boundaries between internet, mobile and devices on the home and office LAN," said Will Franks, Founder and CTO of Ubiquisys. "As a result, femtocell intelligence can be harnessed by applications running almost anywhere. That’s why we support the work of the Femto Forum to establish a common approach to femtocell APIs, which will make it easier for developers to femto-enable their apps." -ENDS- About Airvana Airvana helps operators transform the mobile experience for users worldwide.

Cambridge, 22 June 2009 – ip.access (www.ipaccess.com), the multi-award winning developer of picocell and femtocell solutions, today announced that it will demonstrate its new “Virtual Fridge Notes” application for the iPhone at tomorrow’s Femtocells World Summit. ip.access will first showcase the application during the Femtocell Applications Live session at the event. The new application makes use of a femtocell’s ability to detect home presence, sending someone a reminder message as soon as he or she arrives home. ip.access’ “fridge notes” service works on any SMS capable handset, but the new iPhone version actually displays the messages on a virtual fridge, allowing the recipient to manage them just like real fridge notes. The message, which can be composed and sent using Facebook, can be unpeeled, moved to a corner of the fridge door, or removed altogether if the message is no longer relevant. “Since the very early days, the industry has been discussing the potential for new applications based on the home presence information provided by a femtocell. The virtual fridge integrates the femtocell with two of the world’s most popular communication mediums – Facebook and the iPhone – to deliver a useful new service,” says Stephen Mallinson, CEO at ip.access. “As the preferred communication hub for millions of people around the world, Facebook is the ideal place to leave reminder messages for friends, who can use the iPhone’s unique user interface to manage the important jobs they need to do at home.” The application also uses a femtocell’s home presence detection capability to automatically update a person’s Facebook status, meaning all their friends and family can see when they’ve arrived home. ip.access has taken a strong lead in promoting femtocell services, and has helped to initiate the Femto Forum Services Special Interest Group (SIG), which seeks to foster a developer community to build femtocell services. It was also the first company to demonstrate femtocell-enabled connected home services, showcasing many different uses of femtocell technology in a home environment. A video showing the Facebook Virtual Fridge Notes demonstration can be found at: http://3ginthehome.wordpress.com/2009/02/13/virtual-fridge-notes/. ip.access will also be demonstrating the new iPhone application throughout the Femtocells World Summit. - Ends – - Femtocell Applications Live The Femtocell Applications Live event is open to the press, operators and the mobile web application development community (in addition to delegates attending the Femtocells World Summit). The event brings together the latest examples of femtocell services from vendors and operators, giving insight into how these services will enhance the ‘digital home’ and enrich the experience of consumers in the future. Femtocell Applications Live takes place from 18.00 – 20.00 on Tuesday 23rd June 2009 at the Radisson Edwardian Heathrow, London. There will be a press preview from 13.30 - 15.15.

Berlin, Germany - 12 June 2009. Awareness of the ISO standard for long-term archiving, PDF/A, has spread throughout Europe to the point that it is considered in nearly all projects. This was revealed in a survey performed by the PDF/A Competence Center at the end of 2008. A comparison with the results of the 2007 survey showed a steady increase in the number of users. About 400 persons in companies and public institutions were questioned; approximately half of these intend to introduce PDF/A in the next twelve months. At the same time, the number of those working with older archiving formats such as TIFF, JPEG or simple PDF decreased by about five percent. Moreover, the survey clearly showed that PDF/A is used with increasing frequency for e-mail archiving. There are many reasons for using PDF/A, among them the guarantee that users who choose the format will be able to read the documents for many years to come. This satisfies legal requirements and ensures that the digitally archived information remains available for decades or longer. Thus many have switched to the format, which was first published in 2005, to ensure the highest level of security for the future of their information. In its survey on the current situation regarding PDF/A, the Competence Center found that 95 percent of the IT decision makers surveyed know of PDF/A, 16 percent use it actively and 75 percent plan to introduce in the near- to long-term. Moreover, the survey provided information on current and future areas of application for PDF/A. It is used primarily in the digitization of documents as well as for converting digital original documents and existing PDF files. Compared with the 2007 survey, there was a noticeable increase in its use for e-mail archiving. This can be attributed to the growing number of e-mail archiving projects which are currently being carried out due to statutory regulations. "The advantages of archiving with PDF/A are increasingly the decisive factor. There is hardly a project today where PDF/A is not at least considered as a possible format," explained Rainer Lemke, CEO of the PDF/A Competence Center. "The education efforts so far by the PDF/A Competence Center continue to bear fruit here and ensure ongoing growth with the spread of PDF/A. Nonetheless, the survey showed that there are still a lot of companies which simply archive their documents in the original format, a very risky procedure that affects the future reproducibility of the documents." Archiving in the original format cannot meet the statutory requirements for long-term availability of documents subject to auditing, and it is risky, because the readability of the information cannot be ensured after a few years given the rapid pace of IT development. In some cases, content can only be made accessible with considerable effort and expense. Therefore an appropriate strategy which complies with the law is unavoidable for every company. About PDF/A The ISO 19005 standard (PDF/A) defines requirements for creating documents suitable for archiving based on the widely available PDF format. The standard specifies in detail what content is allowed and what is not. These and other specifications are intended to ensure long-term readability of the documents regardless of the application software and operating system in which they were originally produced. The advantages of PDF/A such as full-text search capabilities have led it to already replace TIFF as the preferred archiving format in numerous international governmental organizations as well as in private industries. About the PDF/A Competence Center The PDF/A Competence Center was established as an international association in 2006. The objective of the association is to promote the exchange of information and experience in the field of long-term archiving in accordance with ISO 19005 (PDF/A). The management board is composed of executives from callas software GmbH, Compart AG, intarsys consulting GmbH, LuraTech Europe GmbH, PDF Tools AG (CH), PDFlib GmbH and SEAL Systems AG. Within less than two years, more than 85 companies and various experts from more than 20 countries joined the PDF/A Competence Center. The executive chairman is Harald Grumser, CEO of Compart AG, Dr. Hans Baerfuss, CEO of PDF Tools AG, Switzerland, is the executive vice-chairman.

London, U.K. March 25th 2009: The findings of the 2009 PC Energy Report have been released today by 1E and the Alliance to Save Energy. Despite spiralling energy costs and the environment playing an increased role in the corporate agenda, much further action is required by both individuals and employers. 1E and the Alliance to Save Energy commissioned Harris Interactive® to conduct surveys in the UK, US and Germany to show how organisations can easily cut energy costs and reduce their carbon footprint by better understanding user behaviour in the workplace. Key statistics show that the environment is the main reason why 27% of UK workers power down their computers at the end of the workday compared to only 10% who cited this reason in the US. If the 17 million workers in the UK who regularly use a computer turned it off at night, it would reduce carbon dioxide emissions by approx 1.3 million tons, the equivalent of removing 245,000 cars from the road. Other key report findings: • Three in ten workers in the UK do not always power down when they have finished working for the day. If a UK business with 10,000 computers leaves them on all night for one year, it will cost £168,000 and emit 828 tonnes of CO2 • The information and communications technology (ICT) industry generates 2% of the world’s carbon emissions, equivalent to aviation industry. Of this 2% up to 39% is created by PC’s and monitors. UK vs. US Number of workers who use a PC regularly as part of their job: US - 74% of employed adults (108 million employees) UK – 78% of employed adults (17 million employees) Asked why they power down their computers at night: • UK employees were the most idealistic in their responses, with 27 percent saying they power down PCs to help the environment • The most common reason given by US employees (21 percent) was practical - to ensure the proper functioning of their PC Asked whether their employers should be doing more, responses revealed: • Both US and UK employees who use a PC at work believe their employers should be doing more to reduce their company’s power consumption (63% and 67% respectively) The simple step of powering down a PC can reduce a machine’s energy use by 80 percent, allowing companies to save more than £26 per desktop PC. “Powering down inactive PCs can provide a simple yet effective way for businesses to reduce overhead costs and environmental impact,” said Kateri Callahan, president of the Alliance to Save Energy. “The economic crisis and volatile energy prices make it even more imperative for businesses to save money by saving energy.” "Employers today have a golden opportunity to demonstrate their environmental and financial leadership by taking a few simple, energy-saving measures, like setting up processes to power down PCs," said Sumir Karayi, chief executive officer, 1E. "A computer uses energy even when it appears to be idle. Shutting down PCs when not in use will help businesses to significantly reduce costs while preventing tons of CO2 from being emitted into our atmosphere." Karayi added that most employed adults who use a PC at work believe that their companies should be doing more to reduce power consumption (63 percent in the US, 67 percent in the UK) – suggesting that power management initiatives would be welcomed by employees. In fact, a significant amount of workers believe that their companies should be doing much more to reduce power consumption in the workplace (30 percent in the UK, 24 percent in the US). Setting an example: UK Department for Children, Schools and Families The Department for Children, Schools and Families found that many of its PCs were being left on unnecessarily overnight and at weekends. As part of the target for all government offices to be carbon neutral by 2012, the Department is committed to reducing its carbon footprint and setting an example to others to advocate emission savings. The UK Government’s central procurement department, the Office for Government Commerce (OGC), has selected the NightWatchman PC power management solution from 1E as part of its campaign to encourage the public sector to work smarter for the environment when using PCs. The campaign also ties into the Cabinet Office agenda for “greening” government IT. This pan-government framework will assist the switching off of PCs when not in use and could save up to £10.2 million and carbon emission reductions of up to 55,723 tons per year. By enforcing the automatic powering down of PCs overnight and at the weekends, the Department has made the following savings: • A reduction of 35,290 kg of CO2 emissions • A saving of 53,960 kW of electricity A copy of the full 2009 PC Energy Report, which includes real-world PC energy successes from Dell, AT&T and the UK government, can be downloaded at www.1E.com. The report is based on data resulting from two surveys conducted by leading market research firm Harris Interactive on behalf of 1E and the Alliance to Save Energy. -ENDS- About the Survey The survey was conducted online within the United States, Germany and the UK by Harris Interactive on behalf of 1E and the Alliance Save Energy. In the US, a survey was conducted between September 4-8, 2008 among 2,112 US adults 18+, of whom 1,258 are employed and a follow-up survey was conducted between October 15-17, 2008 among 2,631 US adults 18+, of whom 1,717 are employed. In Germany, it was conducted between September 3-12, 2008 among 2,028 German adults 18+, of whom 1,432 are employed. In the UK, it was conducted between September 3-12, 2008 among 2,021 UK adults 18+, of whom 1,273 are employed. This online survey is not based on a probability sample and therefore no estimates of theoretical sampling error can be calculated. A full methodology, including weighting variables, is available.

Bremen, Germany (February 04, 2009) - Traditionally, the generation of professional looking PDF files with PHP has been a tricky programming task: A number of PHP libraries are available, which allow developers to either convert HTML documents to PDF or programmatically generate PDFs from scratch. Business documents created using the former approach are limited by the capabilities of HTML, while it is extremely tedious to get the layout of documents just right, for those, which are generated using the latter approach. phpLiveDocx offers a solution to both these problems: Templates, which are created in a WYSIWYG environment (such as a standard word processor) are populated with structured data from PHP. The resulting document can be saved as a PDF, DOCX, DOC or RTF file. The concept is the same as with mail-merge. The benefits to an enterprise are numerous: - phpLiveDocx separates template and programming logic, thus a graphic designer can produce the template, while a developer can populate it. Additionally, changes to the layout of a template can be made without any changes to the programming logic. - Using phpLiveDocx, populating a template is simply a matter of assigning a value to a text field. When PDF templates are to be populated using existing solutions, the x and y coordinates of the position at which text should inserted must be specified. It is very time-consuming to calculate these coordinates and in some cases, not possible at all. - phpLiveDocx is the PHP5 implementation of the SOAP web service LiveDocx. As such, it is not necessary that an administrator install any further software on the server, in order to use phpLiveDocx. The complex word processing and mail-merge processes take place on the backend platform. This not only lowers maintenance costs, but also reduces the hardware requirements of the client web server. phpLiveDocx has been authored to fit the architecture of the Zend Framework and follows its extreme simplicity philosophy. To learn more about phpLiveDocx, read the documentation and download a number of runnable sample applications, please take a look at the following article: http://www.phplivedocx.org/articles/brief-introduction-to-phplivedocx/ Please contact Jonathan Maron via the following link for all press inquires: http://www.phplivedocx.org/contact/ THIS NEWS RELEASE HAS BEEN DISTRIBUTED BY NEONDRUM (www.neondrum.com) Nicky Davis Tel: +44 7747 017654 nicky[at]neondrum[dot]com

Charlotte, NC January 29, 2009 - The software manufacturer The Imaging Source announces the latest member of its family of word processing components. A current trend in business software is the generation of Adobe PDF documents on the server.
