The Information Technology Roadmap Series: Support for Windows Operating Systems on Desktop PCs | 2005-09-20 03:00:07 | |
| The purpose of this paper is to propose the level of support provided by ISS for the different operating systems and the logical sub-groups of PCs on the campus network. Operating systems for different hardware platforms are constantly evolving. From time to time manufacturers will cease supporting older operating systems. Additionally, software developers will only guarantee their product on one or a narrow range of operating systems. There is also a relationship between the hardware capabilities of the desktop workstation and its ability to run an operating system. This policy recognises the diversity of desktop operating systems used at Lancaster, and that currently the majority of staff and students use one of the Microsoft Windows operating systems. | |||

Deploying Gigabit Ethernet on the Desktop | 2004-11-01 16:13:13 | |
| Ethernet has become the most commonly utilized LAN technology worldwide. Gigabit Ethernet (Gigabit), the latest version of the Ethernet standard, is a reaction to the explosive growth of network traffic and bandwidth-intense applications. This growth has fueled the demand for even greater bandwidth inside and outside the enterprise. This White Paper offers an overview of the migration to Gigabit and includes test results demonstrating significant performance gains of Gigabit over 10/100 Fast Ethernet. The White Paper outlines Gigabit solutions offered by HP and provides a methodology for migrating to Gigabit - one desktop at a time. | |||

Cluster Approach to High Performance Computing | 2003-01-01 | University of Latvia |
| The High Performance Computing (HPC) allows scientists and engineers to deal with very complex problems using fast computer hardware and specialized software. Since often these problems require hundreds or even thousands of processor hours to complete, an approach, based on the use of supercomputers, has been traditionally adopted. Recent tremendous increase in a speed of PC-type computers opens relatively cheap and scalable solution for HPC using cluster technologies. Here the paper discusses basics of cluster technology and presents an example of cluster solution, implemented at the Institute of Solid State Physics of the University of Latvia within the LAtvian SuperCluster (LASC) project.

Implementing Windows XP Deployment | 2005-09-08 03:00:02 | |
| In large organizations that support hundreds or even thousands of computers, it is expensive and inefficient to manually install the operating system on each computer and answer every displayed Setup question. In this environment, it is often necessary to automate the installation process. This paper introduces automated deployment options and other tools used in deploying the Microsoft Windows XP Professional operating system. This roadmap to deployment resources summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of each automated deployment option, and shows where to locate deployment tools. | |||

Intel Active Management Technology Helps Lanzhou Railway Bureau Reduce IT Maintenance Costs by Up to 50 Percent | 2006-05-04 03:37:32 | |
| Lanzhou Railway Bureau, one of eighteen railway Bureaus in China, manages 9,800 computers along 2,793 kilometers of railway, operating critical systems such as goods delivery and ticket sales. Lanzhou Railway Bureau needed to improve PC operations by reducing downtime as much as possible. The Bureau had no effective means to manage distributed IT assets. The Bureau was unable to update applications and anti-virus utilities on remote clients in a unified way. Updating to an IT management model based on Intel Active Management Technology (Intel AMT) helped the bureau. Enabling Intel AMT on server and PC platforms throughout the bureau, including the IT control center allowed remote manageability of all IT assets. | |||
