OSSINING, N.Y., May 31 -- RSoft Inc. has selected IES, a distributor of communication and imaging products to the Israeli high-tech industry, to sell and support its full line of simulation software. The agreement is part of RSoft's continuing efforts to make its optical telecommunications and broadband fiber optic design tools available worldwide.
    "Israel is an important high-tech market and RSoft is pleased to be partnering with IES," said LuAnn Scarmozzino, president of RSoft Inc. "We are in the process of adding to our internal and external resources so that we can continue to provide emerging technology solutions to our current, and future, customers."
    Last month, RSoft announced an agreement to distribute its products in Japan. The company's software is used for the design of products that are employed in optical networks, telecommunications links, CATV and other broadband fiber optic installations.
    The IES Group is based in both Ramat Gan, Israel, and in Littleton, Colo. The company has three distinct fields of activity: Sales and marketing of communication and imaging products to the Israeli high-tech industry through representation of leading international companies; development and production of advanced interactive multimedia training systems; and investments in emerging technologies and product development.
