Huntsville, Ala. – February 23, 2006 – GE Fanuc Embedded Systems, a unit of GE Industrial, today announced that it has joined the board of directors of VITA, the trade association dedicated to fostering open systems architecture in a variety of embedded systems applications.
美國阿拉巴馬州亨茨維爾市 (Huntsville, Ala),2006 年 2 月 23 日訊 - 通用電氣工業系統集團旗下的通用電氣發那科內嵌系統部于今日宣布加入VITA董事會,VITA是一家致力于在各種嵌入式系統應用領域的開放式系統架構的商業機構。
Jim Berlin, Vice President of Hardware Technology will serve as GE Fanuc’s primary representative on the VITA board. “GE Fanuc’s long standing commitment to the VMEbus standard is rooted in our focus on providing solutions for today and driving the technology of the future,” he said. “We look forward to remaining active on new committees and working groups to bring state-of-the-art technologies to the industry.”
硬件技術部副總裁吉姆·柏林(Jim Berlin)將出任通用電氣發那科在VITA董事會的首席代表。“通用電氣發那科長期致力于提供卓越的解決方案、推動未來技術的發展,以實際行動履行對VMEbus標準的承諾”他說,“我們期望在新的委員會和工作組中發揮積極的作用,為業界提供尖端技術。”
GE Fanuc Embedded Systems has been designing and developing VMEbus products since 1986 and has been an integral part of industry standard activities on this platform for the past 20 years.
自 1986 年以來,通用電氣發那科嵌入式系統部就開始致力于VME VMEbus產品的設計和開發,在過去的20年中,已成為了行業標準活動平臺中不可或缺的參與者。
GE Fanuc Embedded Systems has been successful in promoting a new mezzanine standard working group referred to as "VITA 56." VITA 56 enables a modular building block design for both industry standard and proprietary Host Boards. This specification enables larger markets with more unique functions and creates economies of scale that lower prices.
通用電氣發那科嵌入式系統部已經成功地建立了一個新的中間(mezzanine)標準工作組,即 “VITA 56”。 VITA 56 為行業標準和專用主機板實現模塊化構造塊設計。這一規范以更為獨特的功能,開拓了更大的市場,形成了規模經濟效益,從而降低了價格。
Ray Alderman, executive director of VITA said, “Our continuing goal is to unite manufacturers and users through the acceptance and implementation of open technology standards. The strength of our organization lies in the dedication of our membership and their commitment to the VME standard and the industries it serves. To that end, we are very excited that GE Fanuc Embedded Systems will be joining the board of directors of VITA.”
VITA 執行董事雷·阿爾德曼(Ray Alderman)說:“通過接受和實施開放式技術標準、把制造商和用戶緊密地聯合起來,是我們矢志不渝的目標。我們組織的優勢來自于我們成員的獻身精神以及對VME標準及所屬行業的責任感。最后,我們由衷地歡迎通用電氣發那科嵌入式系統部加入VITA董事會。”
The VITA Standards Organization (VSO) provides its members with the ability to develop and to promote open technology standards. The VSO has created more than 30 standards in the past 10 years that promote open technology systems; all the VSO standards are extensions of or related to the original VMEbus standard of 1981. In military and defense embedded computing applications, VME is the most widely used open standard in existence.
VITA 標準組織(以下簡稱“VSO”)使其會員具備開發和提升開放式技術標準的能力。在過去的 10 年中,VSO已制定了 30 多項用于促進開放式技術系統的標準;所有 VSO 標準均是1981 年最初制定的VMEbus 標準的補充或相關標準。在軍事和防御性嵌入式計算機應用中,VME 是迄今為止使用最廣泛的開放式標準。
