VirtualSellers.com Announces Application for Broad Patent
Protection for Its TAME Programming Language
CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 7, 2000--VirtualSellers.com Inc. (OTC BB:VDOT) Friday announced that it has submitted an application
with the United States Patent and Trademark Office to obtain patent protection for its proprietary programming language, TAME® (Tag Activated
Markup Enhancer).
The application was submitted today, Friday, Jan. 7, 2000.
VirtualSellers.com recently acquired the TAME programming language, which includes a dynamic Web page engine and provides Web access to
databases giving developers the ability to create solutions that can be deployed on all operating systems and server environments resolving the common
problems associated with many of today's non-XML browsers.
Through its use of TAME, VirtualSellers.com and its development partners are able to deliver end-to-end e-business solutions based on an open,
component-based, scalable architecture provided by the TAME development environment.
This ensures that its existing business processes, intelligence and technology can be easily Web-enabled and integrated to support new online and offline
initiatives. If, in the future, a decision is made to move to a different OS, TAME can be installed on the new hardware and the application can simply be
moved to its new home.
VirtualSellers.com provides enterprise application development solutions. Through recent strategic acquisitions, VirtualSellers.com has created a
state-of-the-art service bureau geared to launch merchants safely and quickly into the world of e-commerce.
VirtualSellers.com offers a variety of secure transaction processing services to assist merchants with their e-commerce requirements, including
