whitepaper Change Is Hard: Adapting Dependency Graph Models for Unified Diagnosis in Wired/Wireless Networks2009-08-21 Association for Computing Machinery
  Organizations world-wide are adopting wireless networks at an impressive rate, and a new industry has sprung up to provide tools to manage these networks. Unfortunately, these tools do not integrate cleanly with traditional wired network management tools, leading to unsolved problems and frustration among the IT staff. The paper explores the problem of unifying wireless and wired network management and shows that simple merging of tools and strategies, and/or their trivial extension from one domain to another does not work. Building on previous research on network service dependency extraction, fault diagnosis, and wireless network management, the paper introduces MnM, an end-to-end network management system that unifies wired and wireless network management. MnM treats the physical location of end devices as a core component of its management strategy.

whitepaper MGM Creates Virtual Online Tour to Expand Fan Base, Drive New Revenue2009-08-13 Microsoft
  To give fans the ultimate preview of its Stargate Universe television series, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) worked with Microsoft to create a three-dimensional virtual tour of the show's set. The team used Microsoft Photosynth to stitch together hundreds of digital images of the set and then embedded the synths in a rich Internet application built on Microsoft Silverlight. Now, visitors to the Stargate Web site can virtually explore every corner of the 1,000-year-old spaceship Destiny, the backdrop for the upcoming series. MGM expects that the new application will strengthen its connection to existing fans and extend the reach of the series to new audiences.

whitepaper Convergence Speed of Binary Interval Consensus2009-08-01 Microsoft
  This paper considers the speed of convergence of an instance of the binary interval consensus, a distributed and decentralized algorithm for computing the quantized average value. With binary consensus problem, each node initially holds one of two states and the goal for each node is to correctly decide which one of the two states was initially held by the majority of nodes. The paper derives an upper bound on the expected convergence time that holds for arbitrary connected graphs; it is based on the location of the eigenvalues of some contact rate matrices. The paper instantiates the bound for particular networks of interest, including complete graphs, star-shaped networks, and Erdos-Renyi random graphs, and in the former two cases compare with alternative computations.

whitepaper Boosting Performance in the Retail Industry2009-07-28 Microsoft
  Retailers today are in tight competition for every consumer dollar. In an environment where people are hesitant to spend their money, giving them a superior experience can make the difference between a visitor to the Web site and a customer. The Bing Maps for Enterprise platform can help one deliver an immersive experience that distinguishes the site, engages site visitors, and helps make it easy for them to find the locations, products, services, and events. In addition to providing rich experiences on the customer-facing Web site, Bing Maps is an equally powerful business intelligence tool. With Bing Maps, one can overlay data on a map and view the data in a geographical context for decision making.

whitepaper Information Visualization With Text Data Mining for Knowledge Discovery Tools in Bioinformatics2009-07-18 Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology
  An abundant amount of information is produced in the digital domain, and an effective Information Extraction (IE) system is required to surf through this sea of information. This paper shows that an interactive visualization system works effectively to complement an IE system. In particular, three-Dimensional (3D) visualization can turn a data-centric system into a user-centric one by facilitating the human visual system as a powerful pattern recognizer to become a part of the IE cycle. Because information as data is multidimensional in nature, 2D visualization has been the preferred mode. However, one argues that the extra dimension available for them in a 3D mode provides a valuable space where one can pack an orthogonal aspect of the available information.
