Think Tank Prototypes Ambient Intelligence on HP Technology | 2009-03-01 | Hewlett-Packard (HP) |
| Ambient Intelligence as a computing and sensory model in which a given environment is saturated with simple devices autonomously carrying out simple tasks - like ants. Together, such devices create a non-centralized, non-hierarchical form of adaptive intelligence: the Collective. It's not science fiction; it's the cutting edge in aerospace, nautical, automotive and even entertainment research. For reliable technology tools with the power and advanced capabilities to support this groundbreaking work, Lakhvinder chose HP Workstations and the HP DreamColor Professional Display. | |||

HP xw8600 Workstation Supplants Non-HP System | 2009-03-01 | Hewlett-Packard (HP) |
| Poor performance of the non-HP platform was wasting time, demoralizing editors and threatening deadlines. In the deliver-or-die TV industry - Magical Elves has developed or is currently producing shows for Bravo, NBC, CBS, ABC and HBO - poor equipment performance ultimately could have dulled the company's competitive edge. The HP xw8600 Workstation delivers high performance for computationally-intense applications in engineering, digital content creation, video and multimedia production. With the latest Intel Dual-Core and Quad-Core processors, and integrating the Intel 5400 chipset, the machine delivers four times the graphics processing throughput capability of previous generation systems, along with support for high-end graphics cards and multiple displays.

1:1 Program Thrives With HP Mobile Workstations | 2009-03-01 | Hewlett-Packard (HP) |
| Consider the graphics-heavy majors many students undertake at Brown College - Visual Communications, Game Design & Development, Interior Design - and it's clear why the institution has to put processing power into student hands. However, a vendor the college was using in its 1:1 workstation program proved unable to meet delivery schedules or consistently provide requested models. Turning to HP, Brown College found the ideal solution for reliable, high-performance mobile computing: the HP Compaq 8510w Mobile Workstation and the HP EliteBook 8530w Mobile Workstation. | |||

Advanced Micro Devices Case Study: Jim Henson's Creature Shop | 2009-01-01 | Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) |
| The Jim Henson Company has a long history of bringing puppets to life. It needed to create technology that allows a non-technical performer to "puppeteer" a computer graphics character. To meet that design challenge required the "Imagineering" of a technological marvel running on customized software. Jim Henson Creature Shop has employed computer technology to develop the Henson Digital Performance Studio (HDPS), powered by AMD Athlon processors, a cutting-edge workstation which allows puppeteers to control computer-generated versions of the Muppets and other characters.
