Network Software

In the mid-1980s, ARC needed to upgrade its entire computer network to support a more advanced Numerical Aerodynamics Simulation program. When no existing or planned networking products were available, James Perdue, an ARC computer engineer, resigned from NASA and founded Ultra Network Technologies. The company offers a full range of products to speed transfer of information between computers, has more than 100 customers and is designing a new generation of products for a wider market.
