Wavefront - Accelerating Commercialization of Wireless Products and Services

Wavefront will launch its WaveGuide?„? technical training series on October 2 with a one-day Mobile Distillery Celsius v5 free training session that shows developers how easy and quick it becomes to prototype, develop and automatically port innovative mobile applications to potentially +1000 Java and BREW handsets. Chris Scholefield, President of Inception Software Technology, will lead the October WaveGuide session, drawing on his 20 years in the wireless industry as a project consultant, senior engineering manager with Motorola and other leading tech firms, and adjunct professor at the University of B.C.

“The Mobile Distillery partnership reduces mobile application production costs and time and makes training more accessible to B.C.’s emerging wireless development companies,” said James Maynard, President of Wavefront. “Access to mobile industry best practices and new development tools is essential to companies innovating new applications, and Wavefront has made training partnerships like this one with Mobile Distillery a major element in its commercialization strategy.”

“Wavefront’s mission of accelerating the mobile development cycle is a match with the tools we have developed at Mobile Distillery that can cut the whole production cycle time in half, and because of Wavefront’s location in Vancouver, this partnership connects our development solutions with one of North America’s largest mobile development communities,” said Vincent Berge, co-founder and General Manager, Mobile Distillery.

Suitable for mobile marketing, payment, business and game applications, Mobile Distillery’s Celsius v5 automated porting software solution utilizes a unique Parametric Profiling?® methodology that allows developers to automatically port different optimized versions of its application to over 1,000 Java and BREW devices from one single source code whilst also ensuring their automatic update to new devices as they come to market. Fully integrated within NetBeans and Eclipse, Celsius considerably simplifies the whole processes of mobile application development allowing non Java ME or BREW experts to easily embrace a wide range of mobile developments. Its Alembic v1 device database is a powerful web based software service allowing users to access over 1000 device parameters for over 1,000 phones fully tested and catalogued by the Mobile Distillery Testing Labs.

Mobile Distillery is launching Celsius v5 at CTIA Wireless & Entertainment and will be hosting a product demonstration at Booth 129 in the Developer Pavilion on Thursday, September 11, 2008 at 11:15 a.m. Pacific Standard Time.
