This successful demonstration of the WAP PUSH technology ushers in an era of unprecedented, unique wireless access solutions by enabling server-side initiated data transfers.

With SGIs high performance computing power and 3uis next generation mobile computing background, the capabilities of WAP push technology will be brought to new heights. Not only will it allow subscribers to receive information and data without requiring them to set up a WAP connection, the 3ui-SGI partnership will also create a whole new experience for network operators and high-demand users. The operators are now better equipped to provide highly innovative applications, services and products simply by exploiting the advantages of PUSH technology.

This milestone is yet another compelling testimonial of the close working relationship between SGI and 3ui, which has produced a number of leading edge mobile computing solutions with exceptional performance over the wireless medium. SGI and 3ui have illustrated the power of integrating SGIs unparalleled supercomputing performance with 3uis inherent technological strengths, robust solutions and scalability in mobile computing.

SGIs Origin 3000 series
Building on the same modular architecture of award winning SGI 2000 series servers and using the latest expression of the revolutionary NUMA (non-uniform memory access) architecture Origin 3000 series now provide the flexibility to scale CPU and memory, storage and I/O components independently within the system.

As todays preferred architecture for high performance, multi-processor systems, NUMA facilitates access to remote system resources with unmatched efficiency. Unlike bus-based SMPs, the NUMA architecture allows systems to increase shared memory to meet the growing CPU-to-memory bandwidth demands of additional processors. As a result, memory bandwidth grows proportionately as CPUs are added, making SGI NUMA systems inherently more scalable.

Mr Jeff Lam, General Manager of SGI South China/Hong Kong, said, The next generation SGI Origin 3000 series allows you to deploy, upgrade, expand and redeploy every system component in every possible dimension. As a result, you can address business changes with unlimited flexibility and astounding agility, making computing infrastructure future-proof for years to come.
