Engagement to lower OEM development cost and time to market
MILPITAS, Calif., Sept. 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- LSI Corporation
(NYSE: LSI) and Aricent today announced an expansion of their
strategic collaboration to accelerate the deployment of wireless
and wireline networking infrastructure and enterprise networking
systems to the global marketplace. Aricent and LSI currently offer
pre-integrated software stacks for multi-service business gateways
that run on LSI(TM) APP communications processors and have
co-developed broadband networking software with IPv6 capabilities.
Now, the two companies have extended their collaboration to
wireless and additional wireline infrastructure applications.
"Aricent is a global innovation, technology and services company
with a goal of providing OEMs with comprehensive software
frameworks and engineering services, which ultimately reduce
development risk and costs, while speeding time to market of
wireless and wireline infrastructure solutions," said C.P. Murali,
senior vice president, OEM BU at Aricent. "Our laser focus clearly
differentiates us as a truly unique supplier, co-creating together
with our customers the world's most innovative communications
products and services." LSI develops highly integrated, multicore
communications platforms that enable high-bandwidth, content-rich
services. LSI and Aricent expect that pre-integration of their
products will enable OEMs to reduce product development cost and
time to market by as much as 50 percent. Aricent has a long history
of developing production-ready software based on LSI multicore
processor products. "Demand for next-generation rich media services
continues to escalate, and the pace of innovation is causing
product development intervals to shrink," said Charlie Kawwas, vice
president of marketing, Networking Components Division, LSI. "A key
element of our strategy is to partner with global providers like
Aricent who can provide standard products and custom software
services so OEMs can rapidly develop next-generation solutions at
significantly lower cost." Currently, telecom OEMs are required to
integrate software and hardware components from many different
suppliers in order to create next-generation systems for service
provider networks. Through early collaboration, LSI expects to
enable pre-integrated, pre-optimized solutions for OEMs that reduce
the time and cost of delivering systems. About LSI LSI Corporation
