SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwire - February 4, 2009) - Accelrys, Inc. (
Pipeline Pilot Enterprise Server (Pipeline Pilot) is a powerful software platform that streamlines integration and analysis of vast quantities of data flooding research informatics. Pipeline Pilot provides an agile development environment, fast and secure deployment, minimal maintenance costs, and application extensibility. Pipeline Pilot empowers research organizations to derive greater value from their information resources through enterprise-scale data flow control, extensive data mining, intelligent decision support, and effective reporting.
"Our flexible scientific platform better equips research and manufacturing driven organizations to more efficiently manage and leverage vast amounts of complex scientific data," said Todd Johnson, president and CEO of Accelrys. "With our new release, Accelrys is extending its reach across the R&D organization from the lab to the business.

About Pipeline Pilot 7.5
Pipeline Pilot Enterprise Server 7.5 streamlines collaboration and increases research productivity with key enhancements in four core areas:
-- Integration with [ Microsoft Office SharePoint Server ] 2007, a collaboration and content management tool that will allow Accelrys applications to be executed and displayed from the familiar, widely supported SharePoint Server environment. The embedded solution will fill the gap for SharePoint Server users in the scientific community by providing customers with the means to access and use large amounts of scientific data to gain insight and make informed decisions in the areas of discovery and development.
-- Support for data originating from analytical instruments. This enables R&D to improve the productivity of analytical laboratory operations, facilitating access, processing, and reporting of analytical data. This new functionality creates a toolset to streamline everyday tasks that analytical labs perform, such as identifying promising candidate compounds in pharmaceutical research, detecting impurities in quality control, as well as key analysis steps in materials characterization applications. It also supports effective communication among lab analysts, service requesters, and business decision makers to help organizations make better R&D decisions, faster.
-- Integration with distributed computing engines such as Sun Grid Engine, PBS Professional, and Platform LSF, enabling computations to run more efficiently on multi-processor machines.
-- Improved Enterprise Deployment and Security Capabilities including SSL Certificate Management, Proxy Server Authentication, Centralized Multi-Server Administration and Enhanced Usage Reporting.
