Applications and Markets
Process Control MODCOMP has a long-standing commitment to process control and factory automation applications. MODCOMP computer systems support batch and continuous process control applications to process primary metals, oil and gas, rubber and plastics, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, pulp and paper, and food and beverages. MODCOMP works closely with other companies to provide engineered systems for factory automation that include discrete parts manufacturing for fabricated metals and non-electrical machinery and components for electrical, electronic, and automotive applications. MODCOMP also offers plant control software, intelligent I/O control systems, and advanced networking capabilities for growing mid-size companies, as well as major conglomerates. MODCOMP
can provide users with enterprise-wide solutions such as streamlining
a manufacturing production system and integrating it with the information
management system. The automation of a plant at all levels, from the
factory floor to the corporate boardroom, is increasingly becoming a
requirement to compete in today's global marketplace. MODCOMP's real-time
systems, can meet the requirements of today's competitive industrial
automation marketplace by bringing the factory of the future into the
present. Government/Aerospace For two decades, high performance and reliability have been hallmarks of MODCOMP computer systems in aerospace applications. MODCOMP provides the computing power for a broad range of applications including national defense systems, C4I (command, control, communications, computers and intelligence), planetary exploration, aeronautical engineering, and space transportation systems. MODCOMP is a key supplier of computers for national defense systems that track missiles, hostile aircraft, and other unfriendly objects. MODCOMP systems can be found in the Perimeter Acquisition Vehicle Entry Phased-Array Warning System, or PAVE PAWS, where it controls the radar, processes the radar output, and provides diagnostics on the radar hardware. MODCOMP offers superior real-time solutions for C4I customers who build systems for weather monitoring and forecasting, battle and/or mission control, satellite control, air traffic control, intelligence analysis, environmental monitoring, and mapping geographical analysis. MODCOMP computers are also used for high-speed data acquisition and control applications, such as shuttle engine testing, pre-launch space shuttle data acquisition processing, monitoring and controlling research data at wind tunnel facilities, and processing telemetry data at NASA installations that include the Kennedy Space Center, Langley Research Center, and the National Radio Astronomy Observatory. Recognizing
the growing, changing environment of computing for government and aerospace
applications, MODCOMP is committed to standards by supporting a UNIX
operating system, POSIX, networking such as TCP/IP, Ada, and the MIL-STD-1553
avionic interface. In aerospace applications, MODCOMP has the proven
experience and expertise to handle time-critical applications where
lives, as well as money, are at stake. Communications Accuracy, security, and real-time information have become the essential tools of this information-based world economy. By using MODCOMP's balanced real-time technology as the basis for a communications system, a user can access information quickly and transparently. MODCOMP is on the cutting-edge of Internet based electronic commerce solutions providing corporations the necessary technology and expertise to be able to take advantage of this new way of conducting business. MODCOMP has many real-time systems in communications and network applications including packet switched networks, reservation service systems, transaction processing systems, information system access, and front-end processing for IBM, DEC, CDC, Cray and many other systems. MODCOMP systems are widely used in data communications applications ranging from direct interfaces to satellite channels that link geographically dispersed earth stations to supplying up-to-the-second financial information to stockbrokers and their clients. 
Utilities Other Markets and Services MODCOMP systems can be found in many other real-time applications. In addition to the process control, government/aerospace, communications, and utilities industries, MODCOMP systems are used in applications that include online transaction processing (OLTP) in financial institutions, hospitals, and manufacturing companies. MODCOMP systems are also used in various transportation applications, such as centralized traffic control and computerized train dispatch systems. Scientists and researchers use MODCOMP computers in a variety of applications, such as solar energy and nuclear research, cancer and agricultural research and in analytical, image processing, and robotics laboratories. To serve the needs of a wide range of real-time users, MODCOMP offers a comprehensive alternate channel program called ALERT (ALliance for Excellence in Real-Time). MODCOMP combines resources with vertical market specialists such as systems integrators (SI's), value added resellers (VAR's), original equipment manufacturers (OEM's) , and software marketing alliances to provide end-users with total turnkey solutions for their computing needs. |
