Standalone devices are increasingly being network-enabled to take advantage of the technological advancements and limitless possibilities of usage in the networked world. With the onset of the Internet and the consequent transition to Remote Networking, the concept of Device Management has taken a huge leap into the future. Consequently, network enabling the devices and managing their behavior remotely have become a topic of special interest.

For over a decade, Celstream has been offering co-development services in the Device Management domain for varied devices and industries. The objective of our deliverables has been to continuously extend the boundary of device intelligence - be it with regards to monitoring or management or execution. Our customers have benefited from our deep expertise in Device Management.

Celstream has the experience to network enable, configure, control, monitor and diagnose devices and groups of devices using industry standards and protocols such as SNMP. Further, with deep competencies in both - embedded and software development, we have the capability to integrate these devices to larger systems and realize their full potential.

Listed below are key skill sets that are evidence of our capability to provide Product Engineering Services in Device Management for a variety of contexts:

• Languages: C, C++, HTML, Java™ & derivatives, Visual Basic^®, Visual C++^®, XSl, XML
• OS: Linux^®, Unix^®, Windows^®, Apple^®
• Realtime: VxWorks^®, PHAR LAP^®, Windows^® CE, Embedded Linux^®, QNX^®, Symbian OS™, pSoS, etc.
• Interfaces: PCI, Compact PCI, Serial Port (RS232, RS422, RS485), I²C, Parallel Port (IEEE1284), USB, FireWire (IEEE1394), Ethernet
• Communication Protocols: Bluetooth^®, DHCP, HTTP, IP Multicast, LDAP, Proprietary protocols, SNMP, TCP/IP, uPnP™
• Middleware: .NET, Remoting Services, PubSub, SOAP, RMI, CORBA^®, JMS
  

We can handle a diverse range of requirements in the Device Management area, including:

• Product architecture studies, including software/hardware, system-level cost/function trade-off and device/network security analysis
• Rapid prototyping and proof-of-concept designs at system level
• Design, development and deployment of complete network enabled devices
• Design, development and implementation of internetworking, network management and network security solutions
• Configuration management and diagnostic agents
• Embedded networking protocols
• Hardware/software integration
• Testing & validation

Our solutions are robust and effective due to the rigorous integration and test methods adopted by us during the development process. Use cases for definition, data flow diagrams and state diagrams for design are part of our proven development methodology. Finally, we adopt robust test strategies and well-proven criteria to ensure high product stability.

With established business practices and state-of-the-art infrastructure, we have been able to provide fail-proof solutions that have met the most demanding customer needs.

With Celstream, you have a partner who has an advanced domain and technology expertise to design, develop and deploy intelligent Device Management solutions: a true recipe for shrinking your product development time and beating your competition to the market.
