whitepaper Dynamic Power Management for UML Modeled Applications on Multiprocessor SoC2006-12-20 Tampere University of Technology
  The paper presents a novel scheme of dynamic power management for UML modeled applications that are executed on a multiprocessor System-on-Chip (SoC) in a distributed manner. The UML models for both application and architecture are designed according to a well-defined UML profile for embedded system design, called TUT-Profile. Application processes are considered as elementary units of distributed execution, and their mapping on a multiprocessor SoC can be dynamically changed at run-time. The approach on the dynamic power management balances utilized processor resources against current workload at runtime by observing the processor and workload statistics, re-evaluating the amount of required resources (i.e. the number of active processors), and re-mapping the application processes to the minimum set of active processors.

whitepaper Managing CPU-Intensive Work on Uniprocessor LPARs2006-12-18 IBM
  Uniprocessor systems may exist as either an LPAR on a single-engine physical processor or as a "Small LPAR" on a larger n-way physical processor. For this discussion, a "Small LPAR" is one that is guaranteed less than 50% of an engine based on its assigned weight when the processor runs at capacity. Often, a minimum of two logical CPs will be assigned to these small LPARs because clients are concerned about uniprocessor systems. However, running a small LPAR as a 2-way can result in "Short engines" and cause performance problems. "Short engines" occur on busy processors when the number of logical CPs exceeds the number guaranteed to an LPAR based on its weight.

whitepaper Standardizing on AMD for the Company That Sets the Reseller Standard0000-00-00 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  Founded 24 years ago CDW is now a Fortune 500 company. As a leading provider of technology products and services for business, government and education, CDW is one of HP's biggest North American reseller partners. As the company has grown, its data center needs have expanded, too. The company decided to test out the HP ProLiant DL series servers with the AMD Opteron processors. The server sprawl had gotten enormous in the last few years and the company needed a way to help control it. The company was literally running out of power, running out of cooling, adding extra air conditioner units and adding extra power units to the data center. The company decided to switch to HP ProLiant AMD-based servers.

whitepaper APA Engineers Better Messaging Platform With HP and Microsoft0000-00-00 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  The charter of APA ? The Engineered Wood Association is to strengthen and develop the market for engineered wood products throughout the world. The company wanted to better serve the critical messaging needs of staff and association members with a strong new unified messaging infrastructure built on a robust 64-bit server platform. APA began its beta tests by running the new Exchange version on a legacy 32-bit server in a test environment. However, the full release version of Exchange Server 2007 requires the power of a 64-bit architecture to realize its full potential. To meet this need, APA ordered a new HP ProLiant DL385 server equipped with 64-bit AMD Opteron processors.

whitepaper High School Students Create Films Using HP Technology0000-00-00 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  When students at Carson High School wanted to create videos warning classmates about the deadly combination of drug use and unsafe driving, the last thing they needed was underpowered computers getting in the way of their story telling. Unfortunately, that's just what they got. Crashing PCs and footage lost in editing frustrated some otherwise very motivated students in instructor Brian Reedy's video production class. Looking to furnish his classroom with new, robust equipment, Reedy turned to HP for a solution. After learning about the performance and reliability of HP workstations, the school opted to go with HP's recommendation. High school acquired dual-processor HP xw4300 Workstations.

whitepaper Web Services on Devices2006-12-13 Microsoft
  New opportunities for using network-connected devices continue to expand rapidly across consumer, enterprise, and vertical device markets. This expansion is due to device technology advancements including faster and smaller processors, increased computational power, shrinking memory costs, and greater network connectivity. IP network connectivity provides a platform for rich interoperability experiences between devices, PCs, and Internet services. However, to achieve "USB-like" device growth, networked devices must use technologies that reduce complexity and provide setup, security, control, and cross-network connectivity standards. Microsoft's strategy for meeting these challenges is to use Web services. To support Web services on devices, Microsoft has provided native support in Windows Vista for the Devices Profile for Web Services (DPWS) standard.
