SavaJe Technologies today announced it has been granted three patents by the United States Patent and Trademark Office for components of its next-generation mobile operating platform. U.S. Patent Nos. 7,002,604, 6981,120 and 6,864,899 will give mobile handset manufacturers and software developers a competitive advantage by optimizing memory management and processing requirements in mobile devices.

The granted patents cover key methods for manipulation of images on mobile phone displays, advanced techniques for memory management, and low-level graphics component management.

"While Java has widely been viewed as the ideal mobile environment for creating a rich user experience, previous attempts to bring Java's benefits to the resource-constrained world of mobile phones have resulted in a slow, cumbersome operating environment," said Greg Koss, CEO of SavaJe Technologies. "These patents highlight our development expertise and ability to solve the mobile industry's most difficult challenge -- harnessing the openness and flexibility of Java while also optimizing its performance for mobile devices."
