  • Resurrect Your Old PC
    Resurrect your old PCs Resurrect your old PC Nostalgic for your old beige boxes? Don’t let them gather dust! Proprietary OSes force users to upgrade hardware much sooner than necessary: Neil Bothwick highlights some great ways to make your pensioned-off PCs earn their keep. ardware performance is constantly improving, and it is only natural to want the best, so we upgrade our H system from time to time and leave the old ones behind, considering them obsolete. But you don’t usually need the latest and greatest, it was only a few years ago that people were running perfectly usable systems on 500MHz CPUs and drooling over the prospect that a 1GHz CPU might actually be available quite soon. I can imagine someone writing a similar article, ten years from now, about what to do with that slow, old 4GHz eight-core system that is now gathering dust. That’s what we aim to do here, show you how you can put that old hardware to good use instead of consigning it to the scrapheap. So what are we talking about when we say older computers? The sort of spec that was popular around the turn of the century. OK, while that may be true, it does make it seem like we are talking about really old hardware. A typical entry-level machine from six or seven years ago would have had something like an 800MHz processor, Pentium 3 or similar, 128MB of RAM and a 20- 30GB hard disk. The test rig used for testing most of the software we will discuss is actually slightly lower spec, it has a 700MHz Celeron processor, because that’s what I found in the pile of computer gear I never throw away in my loft, right next to my faithful old – but non-functioning – Amiga 4000.

  • Design Document
    SPEC OSG Mailserver Subcommittee SPECmail2009 Benchmark Architecture White Paper Revision: v1.0 Date: 22 December 2008 Copyright © 2001-2009 Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation. All Rights Reserved. 1. Introduction 1.1 Overview SPECmail2009 is a software benchmark designed to measure a system's ability to act as an enterprise mail server servicing email requests, based on the Internet standard protocols SMTP and IMAP4. The benchmark concentrates on the workload encountered by corporate mail servers, with an overall user count in the range of 150 to 10,000 (or more) users. It models IMAP business users accessing IMAP servers over fast local area networks (LAN) instead of broadband, WAN or dialup access speeds. Two separate metrics measure e-mail servers with and without secure network connections (SSL). SPECmail2009 has been developed by the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC), a non-profit group of computer vendors, system integrators, universities, research organizations, publishers, and consultants. This paper discusses the benchmark principles and architecture, and the rationale behind the key design decisions. It also outlines the workload used in the benchmark, and the general steps needed to run a benchmark. However those aspects are covered in more detail in other documents. 1.2 Organization of this Paper Chapter 2 discusses the basic goals and non-goals of the benchmark. Chapter 3 introduces the two performance metrics for SPECmail2009 – IMAP sessions per hour - and how it relates to the transaction mix imposed on the system under test.. Chapter 4 explains the benchmark workload - how it was derived, how it translates into configuration parameters for the benchmark tool and size calculations for planning a benchmark, and how it relates to the benchmark metric.

  • A4 Paper Format / International Standard Paper Sizes
    A4 paper format / International standard paper sizes International standard paper sizes by Markus Kuhn Standard paper sizes like ISO A4 are widely used all over the world today. This text explains the ISO 216 paper size system and the ideas behind its design. The ISO paper size concept In the ISO paper size system, the height-to-width ratio of all pages is the square root of two (1.4142 : 1). In other words, the width and the height of a page relate to each other like the side and the diagonal of a square. This aspect ratio is especially convenient for a paper size. If you put two such pages next to each other, or equivalently cut one parallel to its shorter side into two equal pieces, then the resulting page will have again the same width/height ratio. The ISO paper sizes are based on the metric system. The square-root-of-two ratio does not permit both the height and width of the pages to be nicely rounded metric lengths. Therefore, the area of the pages has been defined to have round metric values. As paper is usually specified in g/m², this simplifies calculation of the mass of a document if the format and number of pages are known. ISO 216 defines the A series of paper sizes based on these simple principles: ● The height divided by the width of all formats is the square root of two (1.4142). ● Format A0 has an area of one square meter. ● Format A1 is A0 cut into two equal pieces.

  • Designing a User Interface for the Innovative E-Mail Client Semester Thesis
    Designing a User Interface for the Innovative E-mail Client Semester Thesis Student: Alexandra Burns Supervising Professor: Prof. Bertrand Meyer Supervising Assistants: Stephanie Balzer, Joseph N. Ruskiewicz December 2005 - April 2006 1 Abstract Email Clients have become a crucial application, both in business and for per- sonal use. The term information overload refers to the time consuming issue of keeping up with large amounts of incoming and stored email. Users face this problem on a daily basis and therefore benefit from an email client that allows them to efficiently search, display and store their email. The goal of this thesis is to build a graphical user interface for the innovative email client developed in a previous master thesis. It also explores the possibilities of designing a user interface outside of the business rules that apply for commercial solutions. 1 Contents 1 Introduction 4 2 Existing Work 6 2.1 ReMail ................................. 6 2.1.1 Methods ............................ 6 2.1.2 Problems Identified ...................... 7 2.1.3 Proposed Solutions ...................... 7 2.1.4 Assessment .......................... 8 2.2 Inner Circle .............................. 8 2.2.1 Methods ............................ 8 2.2.2 Problems Identified ...................... 9 2.2.3 Proposed Solutions ...................... 9 2.2.4 Assessment .......................... 10 2.3 TaskMaster .............................. 10 2.3.1 Methods ............................ 10 2.3.2 Problems Identified ...................... 11 2.3.3 Proposed Solution ...................... 11 2.3.4 Assessment .......................... 12 2.4 Email Overload ............................ 12 2.4.1 Methods ............................ 12 2.4.2 Problems Identified ...................... 13 2.4.3 Proposed Solutions ...................... 13 2.4.4 Assessment .......................... 14 3 Existing Solutions 16 3.1 Existing Email Clients .......................
