whitepaper IBM Workplace Forms eKit: Automate multi-person workflows in a collaborative, open environment and enable accessible, user-friendly, browser-based user interfaces2007-01-01 IBM
  Are paper based forms and the processes to manage them getting out of control? Do you need to reduce errors with paper based forms, simplify the overwhelming complexity that paper based forms can have, and drive more process automation directly from a completed form?

IBM Workplace Forms includes a suite of products that automate multi-person workflows in a collaborative, open environment and enable accessible, user-friendly browser-based user interfaces. Workplace Forms helps to reduce the time, costs, and other problems inherent to paper-based forms processes.

Explore how IBM Workplace Forms can unlock the value of enterprise information currently trapped within paper forms by dramatically improving the access to accurate and timely information by people and systems.

It unleashes information trapped in paper, helping speed business transactions and increase responsiveness. With Workplace Forms, clients in all industries have been able to:
  • Accelerate Business Transactions
  • Increase IT Flexibility
  • Enhance Stakeholder Satisfaction

whitepaper Working With Connectors2007-10-05 Microsoft
  Imagine a person spending hours working on a flowchart for new authors detailing the process a manuscript goes through from submission to publication at the company. The next day, he or she finds out that the process has been changed: roles have been added and certain steps have been combined or switched. The person is going to need to update the chart to reflect these changes. In the past, this would have required painstakingly moving the shapes and the lines connecting them separately. By using connectors in Visio 2003 - special lines that stay "Glued" to shapes - one can move the shapes and the lines at once, quickly and easily updating the flowchart.

whitepaper Dell High Performance Visualization Cluster2007-10-01 Dell
  Dell's visualization system, the Dell High Performance Visualization Cluster, is a clustering system of high performance workstations, utilizing the aggregate performance of data processors, graphics accelerators, and network technologies. The visualization cluster provides scientists and engineers with the visualization power to study/simulate large scale problems such as earth simulation, very high resolution problems such as molecular bonding, or high resolution datasets. This paper explains the visualization cluster reference architecture, components, HW/SW configuration, and installation process.   
whitepaper Eurocopter Improves Product Development Operations With Web-Based Visualization Solution2007-10-01 Oracle
  Global distribution of development and production, and the growing trend toward outsourcing development tasks to international system suppliers represented a major challenge for the company. At the same time, the company faced growing pressure to reduce development cycle times and costs. Eurocopter needed to improve the efficiency of its product development operations and other business processes. One possible starting point for improvement was the way in which Eurocopter communicated Computer-Aided Design (CAD) data across the company. Digital product development enables Eurocopter to shorten development cycles for its helicopters, but it requires powerful tools to make the digital data accessible to non-CAD departments.

whitepaper Blink: Advanced Display Multiplexing for Virtualized Applications2007-09-06 Association for Computing Machinery
  Providing untrusted applications with shared and safe access to modern display hardware is of increasing importance. The new display system, called Blink, safely multiplexes complex graphical content from multiple untrusted Virtual Machines onto a single Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). Blink does not allow clients to program the GPU directly, but instead provides a virtual processor abstraction which they can program. Blink executes virtual processor programs and controls the GPU on behalf of the client, in a manner that reduces processing and context switching overheads. Blink provides its own stored procedure abstraction for efficient hardware access, but also supports fast emulation of legacy OpenGL programs. To achieve performance and safety, Blink employs just-in-time compilation and simple program inspection.

whitepaper Geometric Spanner for Routing in Mobile Networks2007-08-10 Stanford University
  This paper proposes a new routing graph, the Restricted Delaunay Graph (RDG), for ad hoc networks. Combined with a node clustering algorithm, RDG can be used as an underlying graph for geographic routing protocols. This graph has the following attractive properties; it is a planar graph; between any two nodes there exists a path in the RDG whose length, whether measure in terms of topological or Euclidean distance, is only a constant times the optimum length possible; and the graph can be maintained efficiently in a distributed manner when the nodes move around. The paper also shows by simulation that the RDG outperforms the previously proposed routing graphs under the Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR) protocol.

whitepaper Modelling Incentives for Collaboration in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks2007-08-01 University of Cambridge
  This paper explores a model for the operation of an ad hoc mobile network. The model incorporates incentives for users to act as transit nodes on multi-hop paths and to be rewarded with their own ability to send traffic. The paper explores consequences of the model by means of uid-level simulations of a network and illustrates the way in which network resources are allocated to users according to their geographical position.

whitepaper The Promise of the Virtual Oil Company2007-07-01 Cisco Systems
  World demand for oil and gas is at an all-time high as emerging economies demand increasing amounts to fuel their growth. The Energy Information Administration predicts that world oil demand will grow from 80 million barrels per day (at 2003 levels) to 118 million barrels per day by 2030. The majority of oil and gas reserves that will be needed to satisfy this increasing demand are located in either geographically remote or politically sensitive areas (or both), making them more difficult and expensive to exploit. Within the context of increasing demand, International Oil Companies (IOCs) must continually replenish reserves depleted by production.
