whitepaper Leading Managed Services Provider Forecasts "The Perfect Storm" for Small Business Services2007-10-01 Intel
  With the right processes and the right tools, one can become the client's high-value IT department. But 'High-value' doesn't mean 'Fix it when it breaks.' It means an enterprise level of service for small businesses that puts the right infrastructure in place, keeps it working with very few disruptions, and grows it carefully as the client's needs and challenges change. masterIT's tools were not mature enough to support their business model effectively. But now the company's current managed services infrastructure - built on N-able's software's management console, N-central, and PCs with Intel vPro processor technology - gives the capability to deliver very comprehensive, very high-value services to their clients at a reasonable cost.   
whitepaper Maryland Public School District Gives Lexmark High Marks for Automating Its Electronic Report Card System2007-09-20 Lexmark International
  Among the 50 largest public school systems in the United States, this public school system in Maryland provides a challenging and rewarding educational experience. For the 78 elementary schools in this Maryland school district, generating report cards was a challenging process. The longstanding practice of handwriting grades and comments on expensive five-part forms four times each year for more than 35,000 students took a great deal of time. The resulting report cards were unattractive and difficult to read. With a strong recommendation from a state colleague and the district's own experiences with Lexmark printers at its secondary schools, the school decided to install a fleet of networked monochrome laser printers from Lexmark throughout its elementary schools.   
whitepaper Paramedics Use Tablet PCs to Send Patient Information to Hospitals During "Golden Hour"0000-00-00 Microsoft
  Healthcare authorities in Ireland and Dubai are commissioning mobile solutions in ambulances to help optimise use of the "Golden hour" after paramedics collect patients. Valentia Technologies has been commissioned by the Pre-Hospital Emergency Care Council of Ireland and the Dubai Ambulance Centre to deploy a solution for the real-time transmission of patient data from ambulances to hospitals. Using "Ruggedised" mobile tablet PCs and the Windows XP operating system, the solution works both on standard public mobile networks and TETRA. The solution gives emergency departments more visibility of inbound patients prior to arrival. Paramedics are relieved of the burden of paper records and receive a more structured patient-care workflow. Healthcare authorities can use the standardised data on pre-hospital emergency care practice for analysis and evaluation.

whitepaper Fully Auditable Migration of a Document Management System0000-00-00 EMC
  Boehringer Ingelheim is currently one of the most research-intensive companies in the world and employs 37,500 employees in 143 associated companies in Germany and abroad. For a long time a Documentum system based on EDMS98 had been in use at the US subsidiary as the central system for the management of submission dossiers, but this now needed to be shut down on 31/12/2005. The department concerned needed to go live by the first week of January 2006. During a first pilot migration in the USA, document structures and existing metainformation were transferred to a Documentum 5 system. Due to the migration-center's capability of transferring large data volumes to the target system on schedule, the department's requirements could be met on time.
