CLIQUE COMMUNICATIONS, LLC INTEGRATES ATINAV'S UPNP SOLUTION INTO VIDEO IM PROGRAM

Atinav, a leading provider of Internet-based and wireless software for communication and workplace collaboration, today announced a partnership with Clique Communications, LLC, a leading provider of innovative digital video applications and solutions, in which Clique Communications, LLC, will use Atinav's aveLink® UPnP Solution to enable its Clique™ Video Messenger, a video-based instant messaging program.


Clique Communications, LLC's Clique™ Video Messenger provides a video communication experience over the Internet at any available bandwidth. It supports modular, flexible, and highly configurable networking services designed to handle user presence, authentication, message exchanging, forwarding, archiving, real-time content delivery, and application security. UPnP is a technology that enables pervasive peer-to-peer network connectivity and a zero configuration network that enables network devices of all forms. Atinav's aveLink® UPnP includes an SDK for UPnP that provides a set of software development kits that can be used as a key component in designing a UPnP-certified device. Atinav's aveLink® UPnP SDK and solution allowed Clique Communications, LLC to make the application UPnP-enabled so it could be deployed commercially across a wide range of platforms and environments regardless of firewalls and other obstacles.


Other aveLink® products include aveLink® Bluetooth Solution, a complete implementation of the Bluetooth Protocol Stack, Profiles and Application Programmers Interface in Embedded systems, Windows, WinCE and Java; aveLink® OSGi, an officially certified as an OSGi 3.0 compliant framework by the OSGi Alliance that can be used as a platform for service delivery in offices, homes, vehicles and even for mobile computing in a PDA; and aveLink® Framework, which allows heterogeneous devices to communicate with each other, to use the functionality offered by each and to enable accessibility from browser/non-browser based clients through any type of network.


"One of Clique Communications' goals in delivering our Video Messaging products is to use standards-compliant solutions whenever possible," said Roger F. Bessler, vice president of strategic relations. "Atinav's aveLink® SDK allows us to directly connect users most efficiently, enabling person-to-person live video chat through the millions of UPnP devices in homes and offices."


"Clique Communications, LLC's integration of our UPnP technology has allowed them to develop and deploy their Clique™ Video Messenger in a timely and efficient manner,' said Salman Ali, Manager of aveLink® Strategy & Business Development. "One of their highest priorities was speed-to-market and with our UpnP technology, Clique Communications, LLC was able to achieve this goal.'
