Waukesha, WI, May 01, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Odyne Systems, LLC, a leader in hybrid systems for medium- and heavy-duty trucks, has been named winner of an I.Q. Award for Innovation by BizTimes Media LLC. The I.Q. Awards salute Southeastern Wisconsin businesses for innovative products, services or processes.

Odyne’s advanced plug-in hybrid electric truck systems can reduce fuel consumption by up to 50% or greater depending upon the duty cycle, lower emissions and allow large work vehicles to operate quietly at a work site, powering all attachments and tools and providing heat and air conditioning to the cab. The company holds 9 patents (6 U.S. and 3 International) and has 21 patents pending. Odyne’s proprietary hybrid technology combines reliable electric power conversion, power control and energy storage technology. The system interfaces with Allison Transmission’s industry leading fully-automatic transmissions, Remy advanced electric propulsion motors with industry leading power density and efficiency, Johnson Controls lithium-ion battery technology and other robust, automotive quality components.

The company is currently installing over 120 systems on new trucks throughout North America as part of a $45.4 million award from the Department of Energy, which is being administered by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) Odyne is tapping Inland Power Group of Butler Wisconsin, an Allison Transmission distributor, as its manufacturing and installation partner. Together Odyne and Inland Power Group have added over a dozen jobs to Southeastern Wisconsin in late 2013 and 2014.

Joe Dalum, President and CEO of Odyne Systems, LLC noted, "We have a passion for innovation and are pleased the company is being recognized with an IQ Award. The Odyne plug in hybrid system for large trucks is truly unique. Our customers appreciate the improved efficiency provided by the system during driving and stationary work site operations along with the performance of the market leading Allison transmission. The use of advanced batteries to power equipment rather than having to idle an engine also helps reduce noise and emissions within communities. This award is much appreciated recognition that Odyne’s technology plays an important role providing alternative, cleaner energy to hard working trucks.”

The winners will receive their awards at a lunch ceremony on Wednesday, May 21, at the Potawatomi Bingo Casino Woodland Dreams Ballroom in Milwaukee at 1721 W. Canal St., from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. The ceremony takes place during the BizExpo, Wisconsin’s largest business-to-business conference.

AlphaDigits Top Rated Apps for April 2014

0
0

Long Island, NY, May 02, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Mobile app review publisher AlphaDigits has named the top rated apps for April 2014.

AlphaDigits names five top class mobile apps every month based on the reviews published in the website during the particular month. This website has now released the names of top rated mobile apps for the month of April.

Likeability (5/ 5): Likeability is the newest app on the market that allows members to upload and share photos for other members to view, comment on, boost, and promote. Entities that are trying to promote a cause or fundraiser can make great use of this app by posting marketing material and watch as popularity of the event soars with every like that it receives.

iOrnament (4.8/ 5): Looking for a drawing app like no other? Then look to iOrnament. Created by Professor Jurgen Richter-Gerbert, as an accumulation of software programs written and updated over 25 years, this app takes drawing to a whole new level of creation. It skillfully and effortlessly combines art with science, without letting users know about it.

Wordistic (4.7/ 5): In Wordistic, letters fall from the top of the screen, not the sky, and as you see them you tap on them in an order to spell out a word. Start with a word that needs a letter you are not seeing, and point accumulation drops. Pick the right word, and score. As you get better at predicting and building words, the game moves you up in levels.

GeoSonic (4.5/ 5): GeoSonic is essentially a music player using techno-driven sounds that play and evolve as you listen and adjust the app-designed image. There are many options you can change to adjust the look of the image displayed by the app. They are controlled by icons that sit on the left and top edges of the app’s screen. The app itself is extremely simple to use, and does all the work for you.

Plane Insane Multiplayer (4.3/ 5): It is a simple plane-flying app that has you tapping the screen to guide your propeller-fueled aeronautic through so-called skies, avoiding columns of blocks and passing through the airspace in what looks like a young boy’s bedroom. This app is a game, most apt for youngsters, that is simple to learn and master, if given time.

Joe Ellen, an Editor at AlphaDigits said, “We are working to launch an exclusive web designing and web hosting service for mobile app developers. It will be available very soon.” App developers can contact AlphaDigits through the onsite form to get their apps reviewed. They can contact by mail or the contact form to avail other marketing services.

Singapore, Singapore, May 02, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Anaplan today announced the appointment of David Padgett as Vice President of Sales, North and Southeast Asia. In this role, Padgett will manage sales across Singapore, the Philippines, Indonesia, India, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Greater China.

“Organizations are increasingly turning to Anaplan for more agility and actionable insights that help them make key business decisions in sales, operations and finance functions,” said Samir Neji, Anaplan’s Managing Director, APAC. “That demand extends to the North and Southeast Asia regions and, as a result, we are expanding our sales operations by bringing on a seasoned veteran in David.”

According to the results of a recent CFO Innovation Asia Insight Survey of 120 CFOs and finance executives from ASEAN and Greater China, Asia’s CFOs are demanding a more systematic, flexible forecasting and planning solution. Respondents clearly identified a need for driver-based planning, what-if scenario modeling and top-down/bottom-up planning. Only two out of the 120 companies surveyed use a cloud or hosted solution for forecasting and planning. Cloud-based providers such as Anaplan are becoming increasingly popular, with only 36 percent of respondents reporting satisfaction with the ease of use of their current processes, and 67 percent asking for easier top-down and bottom-up modeling.

Padgett joins Anaplan from NTT DATA Business Solutions, where he was General Manager for Southeast Asia, responsible for strategic direction, sales and operational support in the region. At NTT, Padgett identified key growth markets, industries and solutions, improved sales alignment and execution and drove increased group collaboration to win new business for the company. Padgett brings more than 18 years of experience in enterprise planning to Anaplan, including senior positions with Utopia, Backoffice Associates, Diagonal Consulting and Hewlett-Packard.

“Anaplan is a game changer in the market – it is empowering users and raising their expectations of more value in less time – a compelling proposition our competition simply cannot match,” Padgett said. “The traditional software and services market has become content with mediocre results, long projects and questionable ROI. Customers need accuracy and agility, and our real-time, in-memory platform, delivered with the convenience and cost effectiveness of the cloud, is exactly what customers are demanding.”

About Anaplan
Anaplan is disrupting the world of business planning and execution. We built our platform from the ground up to empower companies to plan, collaborate, and act—in real time. Stay ahead of critical business events, rapidly model potential impacts and course correct on the fly.

Pentek Introduces Onyx Virtex-7 Transceiver 3U VPX Rugged Board for Communication and Radar Systems

0
0

Upper Saddle River, NJ, May 02, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Pentek, Inc., announced the newest member of its highly popular Onyx® family: the Model 52751, a two-channel, wideband transceiver 3U VPX board, based on the Xilinx Virtex-7 FPGA. The Model 52751 is suitable for connection to HF or IF ports of communication or radar systems. Its built-in data capture and generation features make it an ideal turnkey solution without the need to develop additional FPGA IP.

The Model 52751 includes two 500 MHz 12-bit A/Ds followed by two DDCs, and two 800 MHz 16-bit D/As with a DUC. Factory installed Virtex-7 FPGA functions include two A/D acquisition modules, a D/A waveform generation IP module, data multiplexing, channel selection, data packing, gating, triggering, synchronization and memory control. Programmable decimation and interpolation ranges for each DDC and DUC cover transceiver signal bandwidths from 4 kHz to 200 MHz.

Enhanced Applications
Target applications for the Model 52751 include radar, digital RF memory, wideband communication, SIGINT and electronic countermeasures systems. Virtex-7 performance enhancements to the Model 52751 allow more data to be collected and processed faster than ever before. For airborne SIGINT and monitoring tasks, more terrain may be covered in less time, reducing the risk of detection. In communication-type applications, more signals can be captured and classified in real time through more detailed analysis. Ground-penetrating radar systems reap the benefits of wider bandwidths for generating and processing radar pulses to detect buried munitions or explosives that might otherwise have been obscured with noise.

Development Tools and Software Support
GateXpress® PCIe Configuration Manager is a sophisticated FPGA-PCIe hardware engine for managing the reconfiguration of the FPGA. At power up, the GateXpress manager immediately presents a PCIe target to the host computer for discovery and enumeration, giving the FPGA time to load from FLASH. Once booted, the GateXpress manager offers multiple options for dynamically reconfiguring the FPGA with a new IP image, handling the hardware negotiation and streamlining the loading task. GateXpress also allows dynamic FPGA reconfiguration across the PCIe interface through a runtime software task on the host computer.

A key benefit of the GateXpress manager is its ability to use a default power-up configuration image in non-volatile FLASH memory to enable booting of a system. Once booted, the sensitive mission signature configuration image can then be uploaded into the FPGA by the system host from a disk file, a network source or even a radio link. Thus, no non-volatile version of the sensitive mission image exists in the module, affording a high degree of security in the event of loss or capture of the system.

For systems that require custom functions, IP can be developed using the Pentek GateFlow® FPGA Design Kit, extending or even replacing the factory-installed functions.

Pentek ReadyFlow® software board support packages for high-level C-language development are available for Linux and Windows operating systems.

Form Factors, Pricing, and Availability
For the latest pricing and availability information, please contact Mario Schiavone by phone at (201) 818-5900 ext.229, or by email at mario@pentek.com.

The Model 52751 3U VPX module with 4 GB of memory starts at $16,995 USD. Additional FPGA options are available. Delivery is 8 weeks ARO.

About Pentek
Pentek develops, manufactures and markets innovative DSP systems and recorders to original equipment manufacturers, distributors and value-added resellers.
