In order to capitalize on the high-performance products of tomorrow, ITfirms must identify the latest, cutting-edge technologies of today. TheUniversity of Florida has announced a new service to its commercialpartners and interested investors: UF Tech Alert, a free, web-basedservice that instantly notifies subscribers of University of Floridatechnologies available
for licensing in their specific areas of interest. UF Tech Alertgenerates a text-only email to subscribers with a web link to adescription of the new discovery and contact data for moreinformation. The service is designed to help recipients identifygroundbreaking technologies in order to commercialize the nextgeneration of IT-based products and applications.

A company subscribed to UF Tech Alert would have been among thefirst to read about the following UF-developed, computer engineeringand software technologies, which are only a few examples from the longlist of breakthrough technologies that are currently available forlicensing:

  • MODIA - a software-based system that enables control of multimedia appliances,
    including TVs and DVRs, in the user's home network from a smartphone

  • The Proxy Gator toolkit for rapid development of proxies for mobile
    applications

  • A number of technologies in the form of algorithms, lookup schemes, and
    improved balanced tree data structures, among others, to revolutionize router
    and table performance

  • A Rapid-Mobility Network Emulator (RAMON) to emulate mobile unit speed aswell
    as acceleration and trajectory changes; the technology allows software designers
    at all levels—drivers, protocols, and applications—to test and project
    performance of their applications in an emulated environment, improving
    outcomes, enabling development costs to be cut in half, and minimizing
    investment risk.

    Subscribers to the free UF Tech Alert service may also choose toreceive information about new technologies in a range of otherindustries, including agricultural, environmental, medical devices,human health care as well as other sectors of the physical sciences andengineering.

    To subscribe to UF Tech Alert, simply visit http://apps.rgp.ufl.edu/otl/tech_updates1.cfm (or go to http://www.otl.ufl.edu and click "UF Tech Alert" in the left-hand column) and select the particularindustries of interest.
