TORONTO, ON - August 3, 2005 - 01 Communique Laboratory Inc. (TSX: ONE -
www.01com.com), a leading remote
access solutions provider, today announced it has been granted a patent (U.S. Patent
No. 6,928,479) for the process whereby a centralized server acts as a "proxy" to facilitate
a communications session over the Internet between two personal computers (PCs) from
anywhere in the world. The result is a private communication portal providing features
including, but not limited to, remote access and control functionality making it easy
for people on the go to stay connected to their essential business information. The
demand for mobile productivity tools, such as this, is large and growing rapidly. This
patent provides 01 Communique with the opportunity to expand its revenue model by licensing
the patented technology, in return for royalty payments, to other companies offering
remote access and control products that make use of the patented technology.
"Business people are becoming increasingly more mobile with a strong need to stay connected.
The result is a large and growing demand for reliable, secure, and easy to install and
use remote access and control products. Our technology was designed to address these
issues," said Andrew Cheung, President and CEO of 01 Communique. "The granting of this
patent by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office demonstrates that the technology we developed
to address these issues is unique and patentable."
About the Patent
The
patent relates to a system for providing access to a personal computer having a location
on the Internet defined by a dynamic IP address from a remote computer. The system comprises
a personal computer linked to the Internet with either (i) a dynamic public IP address
(publicly addressable) or (ii) a dynamic LAN IP address (publicly un-addressable), the
personal computer being further linked to a data communication facility, the data communication
facility being adapted to create and send a communication that includes a then current
dynamic public IP address or dynamic LAN IP address of the personal computer. A locator
server computer is then operable to act as an intermediary between the personal computer
and the remote computer by creating one or more communication sessions in response to
receipt of the request for communication with the personal computer. The location facility
is then responsive to the request from the remote computer for communication with the
personal computer to retrieve the current location and port number or the current communication
session associated with the personal computer from the dynamic location directory, and
provide this data to the personal computer.
Additional information regarding
the patent will be available on or about August 9th on the U.S. Patent and Trademark
Office Web Site at
