Enea Announces dSPEED Platform

The First Commercial Software Platform for Managing High Performance DSP
Clusters

Stockholm, Sweden, and San Jose, Calif., Oct. 16, 2007 - Enea (Nordic
Exchange/Small Cap/ENEA), a leading provider of network software and services,
today announced the availability of dSPEED Platform™, the first commercial high
availability platform designed to manage clusters of Digital Signal Processors
(DSPs). 

High performance digital signal processing is critical to delivering the
computationally intense applications and services that consumer's demand. In
network equipment categories ranging from baseband processing to wireless base
stations to advanced media gateways, designers are increasingly relying on DSP
clusters to achieve the kind of scalable, performance oriented architectures
that simply can not be replicated in FPGA or ASIC-centric designs.

“Up until this point, the absence of a commercial software platform targeting
advanced DSP applications has left network equipment designers saddled with the
high cost and risk associated with writing their own DSP management software,”
said Virginia Walker, vice president of marketing and strategy at Enea. “With
the release of dSPEED Platform, Enea has accelerated the delivery of DSP-based
applications, making DSP cluster management significantly less cost-prohibitive
and more efficient for our customers.”

The dSPEED Platform extends the capabilities of Enea's industry leading DSP
real-time operating system OSE ck™ with a complete set of DSP management
services that include: start up and configuration, error handling, monitoring
and supervision, event notification, logging and tracing, diagnostics and
statistics and remote debugging. It provides a comprehensive suite of
inter-process and network communications technologies.  Additionally, it can be
integrated with Enea's high availability middleware platform to provide
carrier-grade services to remote DSP nodes in the data plane. 

“Enea's dSPEED Platform offers a valuable set of services that address real
customer needs,” said Greg Tiedemann, director of ATCA business development at
Mercury Computer Systems. “The ability to monitor and report DSP status and
performance, coupled with enhanced system maintenance, will help to improve our
customers' R&D experience and accelerate their time to market.”

Enea will be demonstrating the dSPEED Platform running on both Mercury Computer
Systems' Ensemble MTI-104 Quad TI DSP AMC module and Embedded Planet's EP8548A
AMC processor board at the upcoming AdvancedTCA Summit to be held in Santa
Clara, California on October 16 - 18, 2007. Conny Ohult, director of product
management at Enea, will also discuss the platform in a speaking session at the
event entitled, Accelerating Data Plane Application Development on ATCA.

”The powerful combination of our leading EP-8548A AdvancedMC platform, along
with the Enea dSPEED Platform host management system delivers a strong value
proposition for managing DSP farms,” said Tim Van de Walle, marketing manager at
Embedded Planet.
