ALM is a pioneer in the concept of Modularized Integration: VMEbus, VPX, Futurebus and other scalable bus architecture technologies. One of the most profound adoptions of this technology was spearheaded by Motorola – VMEbus. It became the default platform for the DOD, DOE, Sun Microsystems (mainly their Federal division), Xerox and several telecommunication giants Bell Labs, Contel, Plessey and Digital Equipment Corporation. It was deployed worldwide in most Telecoms.
Early design of hardware infrastructure of the WWW was based on modular technology such as VMEbus and bus based technology. Several servers, routers and switchers were designed using this technology; CISCO and Sun Microsystems were some of the early adapters. A landmark approach to future generations of VMEbus – VPX was coined and pioneered by American Logic Machines in 2004 at Bus&Board. Adaptations of VPX are used by companies such as General Electric(GE), Curtiss Wright, Kontron.
ALM also has been a provider of Operating Systems (OS) for this scalable architecture see: http://www.alm-services.com/info/unix/almunix.html
