San Francisco, CA — (press release excerpt) — Transvirtual Technologies has announced the immediate availability of XOE, the eXtensible Operating Environment. XOE is an extensible browser, rendering architecture, and Web services engine that provides version control, package management and optimized online/offline integration-all in one simple package. XOE supplies a complete set of tools for developers to rapidly build, deploy, and run XML applications and Web services-providing an advanced operating environment that is especially suited for resource-limited devices such as PDA's, mobile phones, and other consumer electronics.

XOE enables manufacturers to utilize a single, portable software architecture that easily integrates device-specific functions, enabling developers to build sophisticated graphical operating environments for specialized electronics. XOE provides a complete set of class libraries for building XML Web services including framebuffered graphics and Unicode font support. Combined with support for all major embedded processors, XOE can easily create elaborate interfaces for personal electronics and mobile devices. With consumer electronics, PDAs, and mobile communications markets showing continued growth, Transvirtual is expecting XOE to exhibit rapid acceptance from manufacturers and OEMs.

XOE is especially valuable to manufacturers requiring a framework capable of providing highly optimized and extensible applications and services. With application management, browsing and Web services being the fundamental strengths of the XOE system, manufacturers will find improvements in development time and a decrease in overall costs.

“XOE is extraordinary because it provides many sophisticated features with very minimal system requirements,” said Peter Mehlitz, founder, chairman and CEO of Transvirtual Technologies. “It's an inexpensive framework that allows developers to build advanced interfaces and bring them to market quickly. It's based upon widely accepted standards and can be used on many different processors, freeing vendors to engineer the hardware without worrying about platform limitations.”
