Intel University Press Delivers Most Comprehensive Content for Intel Architecture-Based Systems and Tools

NEW YORK and INTEL DEVELOPER FORUM, PALM SPRINGS, Calif., Feb. 23, 1999 - Intel Corporation and John Wiley & Sons, Inc., today announced a joint publishing agreement that will generate a book series marketed under the name Intel University Press. Intel University Press will provide the industry with information needed to design and innovate Intel Architecture-based systems. The resulting titles will supply computer system designers, integrators, and system management professionals with critical information that enables them to differentiate their Intel Architecture-based products and to better manage their computing infrastructure.

"We are excited about this new relationship with Wiley Publishing and its potential to reach the broad development community," said Pat Gelsinger, vice president and general manager, Intel Desktop Products Group. "Intel is committed to increasing the volume and pace of information flowing to the industry, and this agreement enables a critical new channel targeted at developers."

"The publishing agreement with Intel provides Wiley with a great opportunity to expand our powerful market presence in computer book publishing and create an important and successful series of books," said Katherine Schowalter, vice president and general manager, Professional Trade/Publishing at Wiley. "Wiley is one of the world's top computer book publishers, with a substantial publishing program. Information about Wiley's computer books and electronic products can be found at the company's web site."

Initially, the family of books will focus on three areas: system design and implementation tutorials/reference guides; compliance tests and specifications; and recommended practices for performance management and system operations. These areas were targeted based on feedback Intel received from the industry. The first book in the series will discuss how to design systems using Universal Serial Bus (USB). The book will be available through Wiley publishing www.wiley.com/compbooks in summer 1999.
