whitepaper IDC Technical Brief: Enabling Technologies for Blade Management2006-11-02 08:47:54 Hewlett-Packard
  In June 2006, Hewlett-Packard (HP) announced its next-generation blade chassis, the BladeSystem c-Class, which addresses some of the total cost of ownership (TCO) issues facing today's data centers. Chief among these concerns is the need to rein in infrastructure management and administration costs. Toward that end, the company has introduced HP Insight Control, which automates key management functions and significantly reduces the time required to manage BladeSystem c-Class servers. Download this IDC Technical Brief to read more about HP Insight Control and to learn why manageability features are a critical consideration when evaluating and choosing your blade platform.

Note: Be sure to check out IDC's companion piece to this paper, Enabling Technologies for Power and Cooling, sponsored by HP.

  
whitepaper Ruprecht-Karls-University's Medical Research Center (ZMF) Uses SAS to Take a Closer Look at Microarray DNA Research Data to Find New Targets2006-09-27 01:00:21 SAS Institute
  The Medical Research Center (ZMF), part of the Faculty for Clinical Medicine, Mannheim, a faculty of Ruprecht-Karls-University in Heidelberg, is a central service-provider for research units at the Faculty. In spite of the high level of investment in microarray systems, the ZMF faced a problem: how to more quickly convert research results into publishable findings and new medical insights. Since January 2004, the SAS Microarray Solution has enabled the ZMF to speed up its microarray gene expression analysis process. More recently, the ZMF has implemented the SAS Scientific Discovery Solution, which is comprised of SAS Research Data Management, the centralized data and analytical process repository, and SAS Microarray, which provides analysis and visualization tools specific to array analysis.

whitepaper Managing Student Affairs With Perl at the University of Papua New Guinea0000-00-00 O'Reilly Media
  In 1999, the University of Papua New Guinea (UPNG) restructured its academic year from two semesters per year to three trimesters, with a week between each term. The change in the academic calendar led the School of Natural and Physical Sciences (SNPS) to re-evaluate the data entry process for student records, which was done largely by hand, using Excel. The Breeze project begun in SNPS in March 2001 was created to explore alternatives to the manual data entry process. Perl, through Project Breeze, has made it possible for the SNPS at the UPNG, to accommodate the new academic calendar while handling the affairs of its students with far more accuracy and efficiency.
