Personal Media Corporation is currently marketing three BTRON-specification products to the general public in Japan.
These are the 16-bit BTRON1-specification 1B/V3 operating system with three configurations of bundled applications for IBM-PC/AT compatibles (referred to as "DOS/V" machines in Japan), the micro-BTRON-specification personal digital assistant (PDA) called TiPO Plus (the TiPO hardware is manufactured by Seiko Instruments Inc.), and the 32-bit BTRON3-specification B-right/V operating system and bundled software. Although these outstanding products are only available in Japanese versions at present, we are including three galleries below to enable personal computer enthusiasts in foreign countries to get a feel for the exciting new TRON-based personal computing culture that is gradually coming into existence in Japan.
What is "Cho-Kanji"(Super Chinese Characters) ??? I'm going to explain the OS, named "Cho-Kanji"(meaning Super Chinese Characters) in the news which is often introduced on TV and newspapers.
BTRON3 Specification Based OS, "Cho-Kanji" "Cho-Kanji" is an operating system(0S) which runs on PC/AT (compatible) machines, and a Japanese company, named "Personal-Media Corp." has developped and is selling now.
Data Compatibility with TAD "Cho-Kanji" has a common data system named TAD, TRON Application Databus.
TAD has 2 aspects; one is a data, such as a text data or a picture data, to be normally used with several aplication softwares, and the other one is a specific data, named "Post-It", peculiar to an application, and you can mix both of them in one text.
For instance, a tab-seperated data written in a word processor can be opened by a spread-sheet without a data conversion step, and you can search any word through not only a text data but also a spread-sheet data and picture data by a special free-software.
Easy Manipulation As "Cho-Kanji" has been designed to use a GUI system from the beginning, you can use it efficiently, and it runs very smoothly on a machine with small hardware resource.
Because of this, you can run "Cho-Kanji" on old machins on which other brand-new operating systems can NOT run.
Needless to say that the booting time of "Cho-Kanji" is very fast, each application software is also designed so simply that you do not have to wait in operating.
Cf: For your information, I'm going to tell you the booting time of my machines.
One of my machines with Celeron 500MHz, it boots within 10 seconds, and another one with Pentium 133MHz boots within 20 seconds.
BTRON as a topic "Cho-Kanji" is based on BTRON, Business TRON.
BTRON is a the specification for personal computers and/or work-station, developped by Prof. Sakamura, Ken of the University of Tokyo in 1984 in his "TRON Project", and it has the special and unique feature that anyone can operate easiy according to the easy basic rule, named "TRON Manner".
Owing to the "TRON Manner", for example, you can use the same method to move a group of words in a word processor when you use a different application software, such as a drawing editor or a spread sheet, after learning the basic manner of its operation.
And the concept of "Enable-Ware" is also embedded for the purpose that anyone can use computers.
In this case, "anyone" means anyone literally and includes children, aged-people, and physically challenging people.
I'm going to show you what I'm interested in, which are "TRON Project" and "Temple & Shrine Geometry"(called "San-Gaku" in Japanese) here, so that you may find something resourceful and creative, I wish. I'm sure that you can achieve a resourceful life with a resourceful operating system, which is TRON.
Welcome to TRON Web, the new, official overseas news source for the TRON Project.
In TRON Web you will find all the information you need to learn about and keep up on developments concerning the TRON Architecture, a unique, general-purpose (read "total") computer architecture that has been expressly designed for linking together the wide array of computer systems used in human society today, in addition to new types of computer systems that will come into use in the 21st century.
The TRON Project has established the T-Engine Project to offer an open, real-time standardized development environment with the aim of achieving a ubiquitous computing environment where everything has a computer incorporated in it and is connected to a network.
T-Engine offers the most suitable development environment for the efficient development of portable information devices and home electronic appliances and other network devices in a short period of time.
The TRON Project's network security architecture, eTRON, has also been incorporated in T-Engine.
This eTRON subarchitecture is intended to prevent tapping, falsification, and disguise of malicious users so that electronic information can be safely delivered to the other party through insecure network channels such as the Internet.
For efficient development, the hardware (T-Engine board) and real-time operating system (T-Kernel) are standardized and distribution of middleware is encouraged. Moreover,
T-Engine is able to facilitate collaboration among chip makers, hardware makers, software makers and system manufacturers, encourage mutual business dealings, reduce development time and cost, thus enabling product offerings with a high additional value in a short period of time.
The combination of advanced semiconductors, packaging and software technologies in T-Engine makes it suitable and unrivaled for the development of advanced application products.
Based on the outline mentioned above, the T-Engine forum has been established to develop and research, and to contribute to the overall promotion of T-Engine.
For people who support the TRON Project and love the BTRON architecture, the appearance of BrainPad TiPO/Denboogu TiPO is an exciting and historic event.
This tiny personal computing device that weighs roughly 300 grams and fits in the palm of your hand offers workstation functionality, showing just what a outstanding architecture the BTRON architecture really is. Moreover, it can run for up to 50 hours using just two penlight batteries!
How many other PDAs on the market are in this class?
Everybody and nice to meet you! I'm Akina. I'm an one's own pace, and the blog of daily life and the idea to which the photograph readily is suitably exchanged and written. Please look at my with one's own way patiently if it's good. If it's possible to point it out readily, I'm welcome because it thinks that there are a lot of points that don't arrive either.
