CITA Biomedical Contracts With Information Architects to Launch Cubecentral.com CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 19, 2000-- XML-Based Syndication Solution Will Open New Doors For Recovering Addicts Information Architects (iA) (NASDAQ: IARC) today announced that CITA Biomedical, the wholly-owned subsidiary of CITA Americas, Inc., has signed an agreement with Information Architects to provide Internet framework software and services for CITA Biomedical's new Web site, cubecentral.com , using iA's patented Metaphoria technology. "Metaphoria offers secure, platform and format independent, distribution of both content and commerce. Addiction, whether to drugs or to alcohol, requires tremendous levels of care and attention to follow the path to recovery. Cubecentral.com chose the Metaphoria Framework because it will make the path easier to follow and seamlessly present a variety of services and information brought from disparate sources," said Robert Gruder, CEO of iA. "CITA Biomedical has a proven track record for taking addicts and making them recovering addicts. But the road to recovery is not easy. Cubecentral.com will be the first portal site for addicts, recovering addicts, their families and friends, and medical professionals," said Joseph Dunn, CEO of CITA Biomedical. "Since each cube will focus on a different addiction - food, alcohol, drugs, to name a few - we needed a software product that could provide tailored results for our clients. Metaphoria provides us with that flexibility and utility." The Metaphoria Framework is the industry's only patented XML-based solutions for scalable, two-way dynamic exchange of content and functionality in any format to any device connected to the Web. iA's Metaphoria Framework will be installed during the next two months and Cubecentral.com plans its launch early this summer.
