    17th ACM Symposium on Operating Systems Principles (SOSP’99) Published as Operating Systems Review, 34(5):32–47, December 1999 The interactive performance of SLIM: a stateless, thin-client architecture ✽ ✽ ✝ Brian K. Schmidt , Monica S. Lam , J. Duane Northcutt ✽ Computer Science Department, Stanford University {bks, lam}@cs.stanford.edu ✝ Sun Microsystems Laboratories [email protected] Abstract 1 Introduction Taking the concept of thin clients to the limit, this paper Since the mid 1980’s, the computing environments of proposes that desktop machines should just be simple, many institutions have moved from large mainframe, stateless I/O devices (display, keyboard, mouse, etc.) that time-sharing systems to distributed networks of desktop access a shared pool of computational resources over a machines. This trend was motivated by the need to provide dedicated interconnection fabric — much in the same way everyone with a bit-mapped display, and it was made as a building’s telephone services are accessed by a possible by the widespread availability of collection of handset devices. The stateless desktop design high-performance workstations. However, the desktop provides a useful mobility model in which users can computing model is not without its problems, many of transparently resume their work on any desktop console. which were raised by the original UNIX designers[14]: This paper examines the fundamental premise in this “Because each workstation has private data, each system design that modern, off-the-shelf interconnection must be administered separately; maintenance is technology can support the quality-of-service required by difficult to centralize. The machines are replaced today’s graphical and multimedia applications.

  • Secure Data Storage – White Paper Storage Technologies 2008
    1 Secure Data Storage – White Paper Storage Technologies 2008 Secure Data Storage - An overview of storage technology - Long time archiving from extensive data supplies requires more then only big storage capacity to be economical. Different requirements need different solutions! A technology comparison repays. Author: Dr. Klaus Engelhardt Dr. K. Engelhardt 2 Secure Data Storage – White Paper Storage Technologies 2008 Secure Data Storage - An overview of storage technology - Author: Dr. Klaus Engelhardt Audit-compliant storage of large amounts of data is a key task in the modern business world. It is a mistake to see this task merely as a matter of storage technology. Instead, companies must take account of essential strategic and economic parameters as well as legal regulations. Often one single technology alone is not sufficient to cover all needs. Thus storage management is seldom a question of one solution verses another, but a combination of solutions to achieve the best possible result. This can frequently be seen in the overly narrow emphasis in many projects on hard disk-based solutions, an approach that is heavily promoted in advertising, and one that imprudently neglects the considerable application benefits of optical storage media (as well as those of tape-based solutions). This overly simplistic perspective has caused many professional users, particularly in the field of long-term archiving, to encounter unnecessary technical difficulties and economic consequences. Even a simple energy efficiency analysis would provide many users with helpful insights. Within the ongoing energy debate there is a simple truth: it is one thing to talk about ‘green IT’, but finding and implementing a solution is a completely different matter.

Plaintiff Xinuos, Inc. (“Xinuos”), for its Complaint against Defendants International Business Machines Corp. (“IBM”) and Red Hat, Inc. (“Red Hat”) alleges on knowledge as to itself, its own acts and facts known to it and reasonable inferences therefrom, and on information and belief as to all other matters, as follows: 2. This case is simple. IBM and Red Hat conspired to illegally corner a market and crush competition. First, IBM stole Xinuos’ intellectual property and used that stolen property to build and sell a product to compete with Xinuos itself. Second, stolen property in IBM’s hand, IBM and Red Hat illegally agreed to divide the relevant market and use their growing market powers to victimize consumers, innovative competitors, and innovation itself. Third, after IBM and Red Hat launched their conspiracy, IBM then acquired Red Hat to solidify and make permanent their scheme. Fourth, IBM has been misleading its investors by falsely claiming all infringement claims against IBM regarding the copied code have been waived. 3. IBM and Red Hat have engaged in this well-worn, anticompetitive conduct in order to corner the market for operating system software that companies rely on to use servers.

  • IBM and ORACLE COLLABORATE to ADVANCE PROJECT MONTEREY Submitted By: Pleon Monday, 15 November 1999
    IBM AND ORACLE COLLABORATE TO ADVANCE PROJECT MONTEREY Submitted by: Pleon Monday, 15 November 1999 -Oracle Plans to Deliver Key Technologies within AIX, Monterey/64- IBM and Oracle today announced a comprehensive initiative in support of AIX and Monterey/64*. As part of this initiative, IBM and Oracle will offer Oracle Internet Directory within AIX and Monterey/64 as a directory option to customers. Furthermore, Oracle expects to port its database and application suites, currently available on AIX, to Monterey/64. This collaboration significantly advances Project Monterey, which is expected to provide customers with a secure and reliable UNIX platform from which to deploy their critical e-business applications. "By offering Oracle technology and applications with AIX and Monterey/64, customers will have increased choice and flexibility to implement new e-business solutions quickly and easily," said Rajiv Samant, general manager, UNIX, IBM. "The agreement marks an expansion of the business and technology relationship between IBM and Oracle on AIX and Monterey/64. The expected addition of Oracle's database and application suites is a further milestone in making the Project Monterey product line the leading UNIX platform for customers and software providers." "The integration of Oracle technology into AIX and Monterey/64 moves us toward solving several key challenges our customers face in becoming effective e-businesses," said Michael Rocha, senior vice president of Platform Technologies, Oracle Corporation. "Together, Oracle and IBM are providing a scalable, reliable solution across a broad spectrum of computing architectures that creates lasting stability, quality and reliability for our customers. This agreement helps make AIX and Monterey/64 a preferred Oracle platform for its strategic enterprise UNIX on IBM's POWER and Intel's IA-64 architectures." "Oracle's support for Monterey/64 is a tremendous step forward in delivering the industry's leading enterprise UNIX platform for Itanium processor-based systems," said Doug Michels, SCO's CEO and president.
