whitepaper Quality Assurance in High Volume Document Digitization: A Survey2006-05-02 06:01:56
  Quality Assurance (QA) plays a critical role in high volume document digitization projects by making sure that the specified quality standard is reached under cost and time constraints. This paper takes a systematic view on this issue by summarizing and abstracting related existing work: quality bottlenecks and technical solutions throughout the whole processing pipeline, including cataloging, capture, image analysis and recognition, and error cascading; various strategies to conduct cost-effective QA, such as combination of auto-QA and manual QA, batch QA, special QA user interface, and open source QA.   
whitepaper HP Open Source Blueprint: Web Server Based on HP ProLiant and BladeSystem X86_64 Servers and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Update 22006-05-02 05:54:22 Hewlett-Packard
  HP Open Source Middleware Stacks include building block applications, such as the Apache Web server and OpenLDAP directory services; paper describing how to integrate individual components of a technology stack; and consulting services to speed the successful implementation of an open source strategy. Additionally, HP Open Source Support Services provide a single source for industry leading technical support of all the products that HP sells including hardware, operating systems, and open source middleware. This white paper provides a technical blueprint for the implementation of an open source Web server stack. It covers installation of the initial Linux distribution and middleware building blocks, integration of the components and steps for verification of stack functionality.

whitepaper Linux Annoyances for Geeks: Configuring User Workstations2006-04-01 O'Reilly Media
  Linux geeks are normally happy to talk about the advantages of open source software. However, describing those advantages to a non-geeky user who is just converting from Microsoft Windows can be difficult - and to the extent that Linux requires extra steps or does things differently, the need to describe them becomes an annoyance all its own. Regular users have a different level of expectations. Very few regular users work from the command line; most expect a fully configured GUI.

whitepaper Investigating Open Source Project Success: A Data Mining Approach to Model Formulation, Validation and Testing2006-12-26 01:00:57 SAS Institute
  This paper demonstrates the use of Data Mining (DM) techniques in exploratory research. A robust model for identifying the factors that explain the success of Open Source Software (OSS) projects is created, validated and tested. The predictive modeling techniques of Logistic Regression (LR), Decision Trees (DT) and Neural Networks (NN) are used together in this analysis. Using Text Mining results in the predictive modeling process strengthens the model. SAS Enterprise Miner and SAS Text Miner are used in this research.   
whitepaper Commercializing Open Source Software: Do Property Rights Still Matter?2006-03-07 03:02:21 University of Texas
  A major shift toward open source software is underway as companies are more critically evaluating the cost effectiveness of their IT investments, seeing the benefits of collaborative development, and looking for ways to avoid vendor lock-in. At the same time, academics and industry visionaries are criticizing the use of a traditional appropriation mechanism for innovation - the patent - by bemoaning the decisions of U.S. and foreign governments to permit software patents. This paper responds to those trends by analyzing the role of property rights in the open source development model, with a particular focus on the effectiveness of the appropriation mechanisms that the open source model uses in lieu of intellectual property rights.   
whitepaper Running a Business on Commercial Open Source Software: What Are the Benefits for Your Sales Organization2007-01-19 01:00:27 SugarCRM
  This white paper describes the next generation of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) technology, based upon "Commercial Open Source" (COS), a software development methodology that produces better software at lower cost. After describing the benefits of Commercial Open Source relative to previous generations of CRM technology, this paper provides an example of how sales professionals at Avid Technology, Inc. use commercial open source software from SugarCRM to improve productivity and sales effectiveness while providing the visibility and insight demanded by executives.   
whitepaper Linux Wireless LAN Howto2006-01-25 01:01:34
  This paper explores the magical world of Wireless LANs and Linux. Wireless LAN is not a very widespread and well known technology, even in the Linux world, so one shall try to gather here most of the available information. Despite the fact that it is very similar to common networking technologies, it is significantly different to justify this specific paper covering the subject.   
whitepaper Why You Should Fire Your Old Browser2006-03-09 02:43:59
  There's just one Internet, but there isn't one Internet experience. How safely, easily, and quickly person browse the Web is a function of the browser he is using. Firefox is the only one designed to meet the demands of a wired world, so if any person is not using it, will get stuck in rush hour traffic - while 100 million others whiz by one in the carpool lane. For a browser so focused on delivering simplicity, Firefox boasts an absurdly complicated past that dates back to the beginning of the mainstream Web itself.
