Personal media company (The representative director:fountain ΌBη(unknown word) and headquarters:Tokyo and telephone number 03-5702-7858 and capital 10,000,000 yen) transplants the T-Kernel version of multi Chinese character OS "Super-Chinese character" to prototype for applied product of standard development platform "T-Engine (tea engine)" in the (*yubikitas*) age "T-Cube (tentative name)", and begins shipping in the first quarter of 2004. gT-Engine" is a project efficiency improvement and to standardize the development of a variety of built-in equipment for the computer to enter all (*mono*), for them to be connected in the network, to operate cooperatively mutually, and to achieve "(*yubikitas*) computing environment" by which benefit and convenience, safety, and the pleasantness are given to us. [It] starts by 22 companies in June, 2002, "T-Engine forum (professor The University of Tokyo of Takeshi chairman Sakamura/YRP (*yubikitas*) network laboratory head)" in which about 280 company one enterprise and the group participate is centered as of December, 2003, and [it] acts. "T-Cube (tentative name)" is half applied product which made the best use of the result of this T-Engine project. It is possible to use it widely as a computer for a high function and an efficient built-in control in standard T-Engine board besides being able to use it for the usage of a business terminal and IA(Internet Appliance) with "T-Cube (tentative name)" unit by adding LAN function not included and the high resolution graphic function, etc.Moreover, the customer oneself can design hardware for end-products again based on the hardware of "T-Cube (tentative name)" because technological information in the circuit chart etc. is open to the public, and [it] develop with original customer's variegated (*yubikitas*) equipment. In this case, the development of the software of end-products also precedes on "T-Cube (tentative name)", can advance, and has merit that the development period of the entire product can be greatly shortened. gPMC T-Shell" which gT-Kernel Extension" for the hardware of "T-Cube (tentative name)" to contain gT-Monitor" which corresponds to gT-Kernel" which is a standard realtime Operating System of T-Engine and BIOS, the device driver, and the filesystem, etc. , and is multi Chinese character GUI middleware in personal media and, and, the application for IA of the browser etc. is transplanted.; The function equal with multi Chinese character OS for the personal computer "Super-Chinese character" was achieved at extremely short time of about three weeks.; The height of the portability of software for T-Engine "It is possible to move it with (*patsu*)" was proven again by having been able to transplant a wide-ranging function to include from OS and the device driver to middleware and the browser to the system with a quite different CPU and hardware composition in a short term. In "T-Cube (tentative name)", [it] succeeded in CPU's making all main modules of the computer a domestic production by adopting VR5701 made by NEC Electronics, and furthermore OS and middleware were developed by the domestic production technology of TRON and the T-Engine base, too. The license cost of large amount of money is lowered to an overseas maker besides the freedom degree of remodeling and the tuning is improved, and therefore, it is not necessary to pay, and the price of the product when mass-producing it can be lowered in end-products of "T-Cube (tentative name)" base. When a large amount of business terminals which can connect LAN for instance are manufactured, this respect becomes big merit compared with the personal computer of PC/AT compatible and the Windows base. Moreover, the system which achieves a highly developed function equal with the personal computer by the domestic production technology are few examples, and, besides, contributes also to the activation of the information industry of Japan greatly. "T-Cube (tentative name)" is exhibited in the booth of personal media of gTRONSHOW2004" held in an international forum of Tokyo and Yurakucho in Tokyo before it on Thursday, December 11, 2003 though the shipment beginning "T-Cube (tentative name)" is a schedule in the first quarter of 2004(booth number E-2). In personal media, it is thought that [it] wants to promote the business related to T-Engine positively by putting "T-Cube (tentative name)" at this time on the market in addition to the transplant of the offer of middleware for T-Engine such as sales of the T-Engine development kit equipped with various CPU and gPMC T-Shell" and T-Kernel and the support service in the future, and contribute to the development efficiency improvement of the (*yubikitas*) equipment by (*S). - Supplementation material
