IRVINE, Calif. and MALMO, Sweden, May 17, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Telelogic (Stockholm:TLOG), the leading global provider of solutions for advanced software and systems development, was recognized today by SD Times for its industry leadership in modeling, design and collaboration.
In its competitive annual listing of the 100 most influential companies in software development, the magazine awarded Telelogic top honors in its modeling and design category and listed Telelogic among the top 10 in the collaboration category.
``Each year, the editors of BZ Media's SD Times 100 look for companies and influencers which set the technical and market leadership for the software development industry," said Alan Zeichick, editor-in-chief of SD Times. ``When choosing the 2004 SD Times 100, we carefully considered each organization's offerings and reputation with developers, as well as the attention and conversation we've heard around the company and its products and technologies, as a sign of leadership within the industry."
In the modeling and design category, Telelogic DOORS/Analyst and Telelogic TAU Generation2 received the magazine's highest honors. The editors wrote, "Telelogic AB continues to lead in modeling with compelling offerings from its DOORS and TAU product families; recent moves more tightly integrate its modeling, requirements management and architecture tools."
"With DOORS/Analyst and TAU Generation2, teams can work on a common visual model all the way from requirements capture through system design and to development, ensuring consistency with requirements in all phases," said Ingemar Ljungdahl, chief technology officer at Telelogic. "This is a breakthrough capability that is turning heads in the industry."
In the collaboration category, SD Times noted the dynamic requirements management capabilities of DOORS 7.0. The editors wrote, "New DOORS features make gathering requirements truly collaborative."
Telelogic DOORS, the world's leading requirements management tool, is a multi-platform, enterprise-wide system designed to capture, link, trace, analyze and manage information to ensure a project's compliance to specified requirements and standards.
Version 7.1 of DOORS was released earlier today. This latest version makes project team collaboration and communication throughout the development lifecycle even stronger and the adoption of a requirements-driven development approach quicker and easier.
"DOORS 7.1 balances requirements changes with tight control of project scope, cost, quality and delivery. It is truly a team-oriented tool that fosters collaboration and overcomes the challenges of distributed and global development," continued Ljungdahl.
"Telelogic was founded more than 20 years ago as a research and development lab -- an incubator for innovation," said Anders Lidbeck, president and CEO of Telelogic. ``That tradition continues today with our commitment to finding the best, most creative and most beneficial solutions for complex systems and software development. We're proud to see these efforts recognized by SD Times."
