Wang Laboratories Inc, Lowell, Massachusetts, and Sun Microsystems Inc have signed a joint development, sales and marketing agreement to convert Wang’s document imaging software, Open/Image, to run under Sun’s Solaris 2 operating system. The product will be released in November. In a separate announcement, Wang also introduced Open/Image X Workstation for Unix workstations, personal computers and X terminals running the Open Software Foundation’s Motif graphical user interface. As the product has a native application programming interface, developers can create new imaging applications or add imaging capabilities to existing applications. Open/Image X Workstation will ship in November, at $500 for a single client licence.
