    TEXT: 
  /LP,/TX  Computer Associates International Inc. of Long Island has reacquired its 
    Sarasota-based spinoff Infresco Inc., and will expand the Sarasota 
    operation during the next few years to include not only software 
    development, but training and professional assistance for its customers. 
     
       The move could bring significant job growth for Infresco. 
     
  /TX      Compared with the current work force of 100, "several hundred 
    (employees) is not at all untoward in a year and a half," said Norman 
    Worthington III, who founded Infresco in May 1996. 
       At Computer Associates headquarters in Islandia, N.Y., senior Vice 
    President Marc Sokol would not venture a guess on new hiring, but confirmed 
    that there "should be increased employment in the group of people working 
    down there, as there would have been had it remained as Infresco." 
     
       With funding and majority control in the hands of Computer Associates, 
    Worthington has successfully launched a software product called Opal. The 
    software has quickly became a favorite of companies, schools, hospitals and 
    government organizations seeking to hold onto their old mainframe computers 
    while providing employees with a more modern way to access them. 
     
       The programming approach behind Opal, called Meta4, makes it possible to 
    build multimedia applications without typing in computer code by hand. 
     
       Less than a year after its introduction, Opal has nearly a thousand 
    accounts at some phase of evaluation, trial, or deployment. 
     
       Wal-Mart, for example, uses it across the Internet to allow vendors to 
    review inventory levels. Miami-Dade County plans to make public information 
    that is now inaccessible available to the public via the Internet through 
    Opal. The University of Miami plans to do all its course scheduling for the 
    fall semester via Opal. 
       Computer Associates is packaging its bread-and butter database, called 
    Ingres II, a new one called Jasmine, and Opal with one marketing plan. The 
    approach is intended to offer chief information officers a high degree of 
    flexibility. Computer Associates says  no other vendor offers this sort of 
    umbrella approach, which it dubs Harmony. 
     
       The company has also decided to become more of a professional service 
    organization, like Arthur Andersen Consulting. 
     
       Instead of only selling a university the Opal software and  providing 
    basic training, Computer Associates will  also offer the use of its own 
    consultants to put Opal into action. 
     
       Computer Associates generated revenues of $4.5 billion in 1997 and has 
    11,000 employees in 160 offices in 43 countries. 
     
       Worthington, who has started and sold five software companies, will 
    remain in an active role at Computer Associates, but will no longer run the 
    firm's Sarasota office.
