ARM and Falanx Join Futuremarks Handheld Benchmark Development Program
March 7, 2005
ARM and Falanx Join Futuremarks Handheld Benchmark Development Program
Saratoga, CA March 7, 2005 Futuremark Corporation, a leading provider of computer performance analysis software and services, today announced that ARM [(LSE: ARM); (Nasdaq: ARMHY)], and Falanx Microsystems, an innovative provider of mobile graphic solutions, are the newest members in Futuremarks Benchmark Development Program (BDP) for handheld devices. Other industry leading companies, including ATI Technologies, Bitboys, Imagination Technologies (PowerVR), Intel, Khronos Group, Neomagic, and NVIDIA, have already joined the program.
These new partners are logical additions to the Handheld BDP. ARM® processors power the majority of todays smart phones and handheld devices. Falanx designs and licenses hardware-accelerated 3D graphics technology enabling the emerging handheld gaming market. Together with the other BDP members, their membership contributes to the development of Futuremarks professional and objective performance measurement software for handheld devices.
By investing in becoming members of the program, ARM and Falanx gain significant benefits. As full members, they have access to Futuremarks benchmark development process and can influence the direction of Futuremarks roadmap. Members also have access to benchmark source code, which enables them to use the algorithms already in early stages of their own product development. Conversely, they are able to ensure that their products will perform well in real-life end-user applications.
Futuremark has created the Handheld BDP to further several critical needs of the handheld industry. These include the design and publishing of standardized and objective performance testing tools that are widely endorsed within the industry. Additionally, Futuremarks tools relieve handset manufacturers and operators from having to rely on theoretical performance data, or data derived by manufacturer-specific tests, allowing them to objectively evaluate and compare a variety of products and solutions.

"The development of credible benchmarks for the handheld market is key to enabling us to assess the performance of existing products, and to enhance ARMs offering for the future," said Ed Plowman, 3D graphics product manager for ARM. "The program also provides a common comparison framework for those purchasing the technology, from the silicon provider to end user."
"Falanx is committed to both innovation and standardization, and Futuremarks Handheld BDP will help us to achieve these objectives in our quest to bring high-quality 3D graphics and video to mobile platforms," said Borgar Ljosland, President and CEO of Falanx. "We look forward to teaming with Futuremark, ARM and other BDP members to move the entire industry forward in this exciting market."
"We warmly welcome ARM and Falanx to the benchmark development program for handhelds and look forward to working with both companies in creating tools that the industry and consumers can depend on", said Tero Sarkkinen, Executive Vice President of Futuremark Corporation.
About Falanx Microsystems
Falanx Microsystems develops graphics accelerator IP cores, marketed to semiconductor system-on-chip (SoC) vendors, that deliver high quality multimedia images without compromising performance, power consumption and system cost. Unlike most graphics IP cores, Falanx's Mali Graphics Core-designed from the ground-up for mobile applications such as cell phones, PDAs and portable game platforms-is the only graphics IP core offering a complete integration of 2D, 3D and video, plus software and interoperability drivers, in an all-in-one solution. Falanx is headquartered in Trondheim, Norway, and is privately-held.
