DECmigrate on OpenVMS/Alpha 6.2 and later.

Major Software Development Contract from COMPAQ for Stromasys

Geneva, Switzerland — Stromasys has been awarded a major contract by Compaq Computer Corporation today. Stromasys will upgrade DECmigrate V1.1a to run on the latest versions of OpenVMS/Alpha. The development effort is expected to complete during Q2’2002.

The DECmigrate utility translates executable and shareable OpenVMS/VAX images into functionality equivalent images that run on OpenVMS/Alpha systems. The upgraded DECmigrate will be able to translate executable and shareable OpenVMS/VAX images linked on OpenVMS/VAX versions up to 7.3 into functionality equivalent images running on OpenVMS/Alpha V6.2, V7.2 or V7.3.

The project will allow Compaq’s customers to preserve their SW investments by moving their applications onto more modern hardware while achieving significant maintenance cost savings at the same time.

“We are delighted and feel honoured to add Compaq to our list of corporate customers”, said Dr. Robert Boers, CEO of Stromasys, “Compaq’s confidence in our engineering skills confirms our leading role in the area of migration products and projects.”


Stromasys specializes in migrating and extending software applications to new platforms. Its expertise also covers process control systems and tools to execute PDP-11 and VAX binary code unmodified on newer hardware. Stromasys maintains sales offices in Germany, Benelux, France, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, United Kingdom, North and Latin America.
