NEW ORLEANS, LA. -- Blanchard Systems, Inc. and DALiM
Software announced that they have installed a complete workflow system
including TWiST workflow and LiTHO page-makeup and digital-retouching
software at New York University (NYU). SGI (NYSE: SGI) donated two Silicon
Graphics(R) 330 visual workstations to power the system, ensuring that
multi-user classes will be conducted without interruption. The systems will
benefit students of the Graphic Communications, Management and Technology
program.
The systems will allow future managers in the graphic communications
industries to receive hands-on experience in workflow management. By
familiarizing themselves with cutting-edge technology, it provides them a
perspective upon which to make production and capital investment decisions
in the real world.
The NYU Graphic Communications, Management and Technology program develops
executives for roles in graphic communications organizations, including
publishers, printers, design firms, and service providers. Students receive
a well-rounded education in both the technology and the production of
graphics as well as in the business of running a graphics-oriented
organization.
"We are gratified by the donation made by DALiM Software, Blanchard
Systems and SGI," noted Greg D'Amico, director of the Graphic
Communications, Management and Technology program at NYU. "This will allow
future executives the opportunity to familiarize themselves with advanced
technology and understand production issues that will affect business
decisions they will face in the future."
