MOBILE DISTILLERY AND INNAWORKS FORGE STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP TO OFFER INTEGRATED JAVA - BREW PORTING SOLUTION

Streamlined integration between Celsius v4 and alcheMo forms unique Java to BREW production toolset for mobile developers

Marseille, France / Wellington, New Zealand, 3 September 2007
Mobile Distillery and Innaworks, leading providers of software tools for the mobile application industry, today jointly announced that they have entered into a technology partnership and built a streamlined integration of Mobile Distillery's Celsius v4 Java porting solution with Innaworks' alcheMo Java to BREW transcoding solution. Building on their core technology expertise, the two companies have co-developed unique developer facing solutions that bridge the gap between Java(TM) ME and BREW(R) application roll-out, accelerating time-to-market and slashing porting costs. The combination of two best-of-breed products, Celsius, award-winning automated Java porting software, with alcheMo, market leading automated Java to BREW porting solution, provides a comprehensive solution to solve the platform and handset fragmentation issue for mobile game and application providers.

"Today alcheMo automates Java to BREW porting for many of the top mobile game and application publishers." said Stephen Cheng, CEO of Innaworks. "The tight integration with Celsius provides our customers with the opportunity to unify their Java and BREW production and post-production pipelines, and greatly reduces the time and cost of porting to hundreds of Java and BREW handsets." he added.

"The delivery of a dedicated output from Celsius v4 to Innaworks' alcheMo allows to develop once and port easily to a maximum number of platforms and operators from a single Java ME master code base" said Eric Lemarchal, Mobile Distillery Co-Founder and CEO. "This simplifies the whole production pipeline and makes it possible to deploy mobile applications in a highly cost effective way".

The integrated solution provides significant benefits:

  • Simultaneous BREW and J2ME development building off a single Java code base
  • Accelerated time to market
  • Easy updates to future devices
  • Reduced QA, porting and maintenance costs


The integrated alcheMo and Celsius solution is now commercially available. For enquiries please contact Innaworks or Mobile Distillery.
