Arcom Control Systems, Inc.BC-Geode-GXM processor board will be used as the hardware platform for TotalIA, a Linux and Java-based Internet appliance reference platform. The TotalIA reference system integrates all core technologies, including both hardware and a software stack that will help manufacturers of Internet appliances and other smart devices get their products to market faster with lower risks.

The TotalIA reference platform includes Tao Group's Java Virtual Machine, Espial's DeviceTop Java technology-based application and service platform as well as the embedded Linux operating system and the National Semiconductor Geode based processor board as supplied by Arcom. Espial also provides core applications such as the full-featured Espial Escape web browser, Ebox email and Assistant personal information management technologies.

The processor is an EBX compliant board, based on the MMX-enhanced 233MHz Geode processor. It comes with all standard PC interfaces as well as a full range of multi media features: Video (Chips & Technologies 69000 HiQVideo graphics accelerator), Ethernet (PCI 2.1 compatible), Flash Disk (solid state max capacity 16Mb), Touchscreen, dual USB and Soundblaster interfaces and support for STN, TFT and EL flat panel displays. The board is capable of driving high resolution modes on CRT and flat panel displays simultaneously. Expansion is provided via a PC/104 interface.

The board will run most operating systems including, DOS (Datalight's ROM-DOS and Flash Filing system pre-installed), Windows 95/98/NT/CE, QNX and Linux. The development kit used in the reference system includes Embedded Linux, a pre-defined build of Linux based on the Red Hat 6.2 distribution.
