The Sunnyvale, California-based company, created in 1997 by Intel, the world's largest microchip-maker, and SAP, the world's largest maker of business-management software, said it will fire most of its 400 employees. A spokeswoman for Pandesic said Harold Hughes, the company's chief executive officer, and Peter Wolcott, its president, have resigned, and that Catherine Yetts, an executive vice president, will serve as interim chief executive. Some employees will continue to serve existing customers for an unspecified amount of time during a ``transition'' period, the company said. Pandesic provides software, services, and hardware that link small and medium-size retailers to individual customers through the Internet. The company said it's been hurt by slower-than-anticipated demand for its business-to-consumer electronic-commerce products.
