“Pacific Softworks…announced FUSION for Linux, an integrated
suite of Internet communication software development tools and
libraries targeted at software engineers developing commercial
applications on the Linux operating system.”

“PC and embedded devices are merging in the post-PC computing
world,” said William Sliney, president of Pacific Softworks.
We’re taking the lead to align our products to further enable
this convergence.” “Pacific Softworks’ leading SNMPv3 network
management, embedded Web browser and Web server, designed from
scratch for the tight demands of embedded applications, will also
run on Red Hat Linux.
” “We’re seeing more and more companies
developing their Internet appliance solutions on Linux first,
before porting them to the target platform,” said Glenn Russell,
chairman of the board of Pacific Softworks. “By seamlessly
deploying our proven embedded Internet communication technologies
on Linux, developers can start to build their embedded applications
under Linux before the embedded hardware is available. We’re
offering our customers the time-to-market acceleration enabled by
this solution,” said Russell.”

“Included in FUSION for Linux is the full range of Pacific
Softworks’ internetworking technologies including a
high-performance TCP/IP stack, MIB-II-compliant SNMPv3 for the
ultimate in secured network maintenance, advanced protocols that
enable wireless and direct-connect communications, and embedded Web
browsers and servers with advanced features that simplify user
interaction and maximize information content.”
