The gel Singer of Intel visits Japan, talks the technical trend of CPU

Intel September 28th, to hold "Intel digital enterprise update meeting" inside the Tokyo, the same company September 18th this year? Intel Developer Forum which goes on the 20th in San Francisco (IDF) highlight and future technical trend etc. were announced.

In the concert, whether technological innovation of some extent is achieved with of the same company match, (1) platform function, (2) I/O, (3) in 3 fields of energy efficiency to this, explanation concerning the future match of the same company in addition in these 3 fields was done.

It visited Japan for explaining, if when was applied Moore's law ' to aeronautical industry "' as for the pad gel Singer of American Intel senior vice president and digital enterprise business headquarters chief as a fable of the reformation which beginning and Intel achieve," as for the present aircraft "it was possible, to carry 1 hundred million 1,800 ten thousand passengers at 1 time, it completes the time of getting on and off at 3 milli-second, the time when it is necessary for the flight between New York and London 8 minutes, as for the fuel it probably is reduced to 2.4 liters", that, it explained.

(1) concerning platform function, we assumed that imagination conversion, management of use and development in the aspect of security are considerable. Especially, the subdivision of OS advanced with imagination conversion, the point where the environment which can construct OS for new data center is prepared was emphasized.


"As a hypothetical conversion corresponding product, the Xeon processor 7300th unit of ust was thrown to September. As for this product hypothetical metaplasia talent 2 times or more, has improved in comparison with the Xeon7100 turn stand of the dual core ", (gel Singer). In the future, it joins to the Itanium processor family, "Montvale" "Tukwila" "Poulson" "Kittson" (in each case you say that development cord/code name) and the like imagination conversion correspondence is taken.

Concerning the management and the security aspect of use, the protective functional "truss Ted technology" for the vulnerability of the hypothetical conversion machine "McCreary" of vPro which is throwing schedule on 2008 latter half (development cord/code name) and, as the technology which is provided to vPro, (TXT), hardware technology "Danbury technology" in order to assure strengthening the data encryption and so on was introduced. As for McCreary, it is one of the Penryn family where it can use the 45nm processor technology whose energy efficiency is high Eaglelake chip set of the next generation and "truss Ted platform module" (TPM) it is CPU of the next generation type where 1.2 and the like is loaded.

(2) concerning I/O, in addition to the serial transfer interface "PCIe 2.0" which becomes Xeon processor 5400th unit chip set and X38 Express chip set correspondence 2007 junior half, newly "PCIe 3.0" during 2009 is standardization and during 2010 commercializes the thing where the schedule where was introduced. As for PCIe 3.0, bandwidth reaches 2 times in comparison with PCIe 2.0, you say that dynamic control of electric power actualizes.

Next, it istechnology, concerning throwing to which offer and this technology of "QuickAssist technology" are mounted and "Tolapai" (development cord/code name) in 2008 of SOC accelerator it was announced. With Tolapai, you say that improvement of throughput (maximum of 8 times), reduction of electric power consumption (20%), reduction of the basis area (maximum of 45%) and the like actualizes (passing the generation).

In addition also new development concerning USB was introduced. "Started we the promoter group of USB 3.0. Standardization probably becomes 2008 first half ", (gel Singer). With USB 3.0, because it becomes the design where copper wiring and optical wiring are connected mutually, as for bandwidth besides the fact that it reaches 10 times that or more USB 2.0, compatibility of front version is guaranteed, you say that also improvement of energy efficiency actualizes.

Furthermore, FC which is used with respect to storage network (the fiber channel) with you call LAN, the technology which integrates below two differs was introduced also that it is the schedule which is standardized on 2008 latter half. You say during 2008 that FCoE (the FC over ethernet) also the software is done release. In regard to storage itself, Solid State Drive technology to be introduced, SATA 3.0Gbps interface of high speed and, in comparison with until recently 10? The efficiency that was shown I/O speed of 50 times, electric power consumption is reduced as many as 4.5 times or more.

(3) concerning energy efficiency, we assumed that the product which in the future is thrown keeps bearing the role. For example, that, the 45nm process technology which is adopted with the Penryn processor you say fundamental rules by the fact that it is thrown, the flow accelerates from 2007 extending through 2008. "It is possible, to increase frequency by the fact that die/di size becomes small depending upon 45nm process technology it reaches the point where electric power consumption can be reduced" (gel Singer).

The Xeon processor 5400th unit which uses 45nm process technology (Harpertown: Development cord/code name) with concerning the efficiency comparison with the Xeon processor 5300th unit which uses 65nm process technology it was introduced, on the server you say that with when the multiple task processing in 19% improvement and high performance computing in regard to use is done with when the application which requires 23% improvement and big bandwidth is moved 34% improvement was verified. "Opteron of AMD ' Barcelona ' with the predominance of Harpertown was verified even with the comparison test" (gel Singer).

In addition, 45nm process technology is used similarly, "Nehalem" (development cord/code name) concerning it was explained. As for the instruction set "SSE4.2" which is mounted on Nehalem, because in one order becomes simultaneously comparison of 256 possible, you say that 75% reduction of the number of orders and efficiency improvement of 3 times actualize. In addition, with the system architecture "QuickPath Interconnect" of Nehalem, as memory bandwidth is increased, you say that memory is reduced.

The product group which uses 32nm process technology

Furthermore, 32nm process technology is used as the succession product of Nehalem "WESTMERE" and "SandyBridge" were announced also that it is the schedule which release is done from 2009 extending through 2010.

In addition in the concert, in the June this year it was announced in the United States, you could do also explanation match concerning "Climate Savers computing initiative" of the protection of the environment which Intel and Google direct. "With this match, the annual discharge quantity of carbon dioxide which accompany the computer utilization of the world by 2010 is reduced 5,400 ten thousand tons" (gel Singer). You say that presently, the member enterprise 100 or more and the participant 500 or more are registered to this match. Furthermore, the Web sight of the Japanese edition of Climate Savers is open from this day.

The top technician of the origin IBM is inaugurated as the engineering patsy of Europe Google

It announced the United States Google that September 27th, nelsonof the origin IBM Research was inaugurated as the patsy of engineering section of the European region. The same person with the technical job of IBM becomes highest rank, it is the person who hauls data management/the development of search technology "Distinguished Engineer (DE)" as.

Google.jpg
Nelson it is inaugurated as the engineering charge vise President of Google

years was on the register in IBM, recently had taken charge of project such as data management and search as vise President and DE of IBM Research. According to the profile which is published to the Web sight of IBM, it is assumed that the same person as important role is carried out with development of database "DB2", served the representation of IBM in the standardization group, built the information integration section of IBM from zero and raised at principal business.

means to owe the responsibility of new engineer adoption while managing and the limits of the project team as Google first engineering charge vise President which generalizes the European region.

When business strengthening at the same area has become urgent business, there is a circumstance in the background where Google appoints to the engineering patsy of the European region. The search engine of the same company is share 1 rank in most country of Europe, but in field such as mapping and online video, you have fought in the powerful competitor of local end.

The Europe & the Middle East & Africa of Google (EMEA) as for being employed numerical of area with approximately 2,500 people, as for 1 of that approximately 3 parts it is the engineer. Entire being employed numerical of the same company in order this year to be promoted to be nearly 1 ten thousand 4,000 at 6 end of the month point in time, only relatively small ratio occupies EMEA area, but the same company seeing that the rapid advance in Europe becomes the key to growth, hurries the increase of the engineer.

Google each city of EMEA area (has) the research and development center of total 12 such as London, Dublin, Munich, Moscow and Tel Aviv. Then the engineer, not only the product for the local market, has tackled the search and announcement service etc. the entire for world.

' According to the Financial Times ' paper of 27 dates, as for Google the employee in the plan which in the future 3 tenths or more increases within several years, as for large portion of increase it is the possibility that it is done in Europe. As fovis-a-vis the same paper, the engineering team of EMEA as North America you said that it is the plan that it is expanded on the same scale.

マトス furthermore, have assumed that the image improvement of Google in Europe is assured. "This corporation is not seen just in Europe. With my impression, it is caught the big business of the United States which is done for making money

As for one of the reasons where the image of Google is not good being Europe, it has been able to have appealed Google News with infringement of copyright. For example, the Belgian courthouse the February this year, has lowered judgement that behavior of the article excerpt due to Google News undertakes infringement of copyright.

IBM, for enterprise new edition of the HPC file system this week release - - actualizing the parallel processing and policy based management of the m

The United States IBM high performance computing (HPC) to receives the fact that interest has increased between the enterprise user, has tackled strengthening the high performance file system.

IBM strengthened file management performance "General Parallel File System (GPFS)" new version is the schedule which release is done on October 5th. Marketing of the IBM power systems/strategic charge vise President, the Scot handy person has explained besides the fact that the search which strided the plural systems concerning the new version of GPFS, is possible, when it can process in parallel to the maximum of 1,000 nodes.

NSD (Network Shared Disk) the constitution example of GPFS due to connection

The handy person emphasized that it succeeds in the file scan of 10 hundred million cases with the test which used GPFS, appealed the functional predominance to the customer of banking facilities and retail which handle the mass non structuring file field. According to the same person, with the test it completed scan at about 2 hour half, but as for IBM, you say that the match which furthermore shortens this to 1 hour is being advanced.

GPFS (presently version 3.2), policy based file management function can be loaded in update edition, the user can indicate the preservation method and search method of the file vis-a-vis the system. If this function is used, the file which is retained with the format of specification and the like it becomes possible to retain in the disk of type of specification.

The handy person has explained when it is possible to decide the distribution method of the data, with the approach of ranking. For example, it draws up policy on side of the user, most at high speed retains the data of type of specification in the expensive disk, as retained low in the system of the cost where performance is not seriously considered, it calls the data other than that that it can set.

If this function is utilized, low it is possible according to the type of data which is retained is connected to cost avoidance savings to utilize the storage of cost efficiently.

In addition, in the policy based system, for example, also it becomes possible 30 days by the fact that the fixed time limit which was said is set, at that time to make the file which does not have access the system of cost move completely low. According to the same person, with the old version of GPFS, as for such processing you say that it was not possible. IBM in addition, has tackled also cluster management functional addition.

It works GPFS, in System p of IBM, and the System x series other than AIX, supports the part version of Red Hat and SUSE Linux.

BEA and TP monitor new edition "Tuxedo 10.0" release - - SALT new edition and transaction pursuit product simultaneous shipment

The United States BEA Systems October 2nd, transaction processing (TP) release did the new edition "Tuxedo 10.0" of the monitor. In new edition, besides the fact that SOA (service direction architecture) support of Tuxedo application with environment was strengthened, up-to-date encoding technology is introduced and improvement of security function is assured.

Tuxedo, with the TP monitor which is adopted to be wide at the bank and the Government agency and telecommunications enterprise etc., C, supports the application which was developed with C++ and COBOL.

With BEA adjusting to the release of new edition, we have added the support of SSL with network link, in the future it means to be able to use SSL domain altogether Tuxedo.

And others it makes new popularity language "Web 3.0"

American investigation compound ahead held the conference "Gartner Web Innovation Summit" regarding Web in Las Vegas. The analysts of the same company which assembles to that place are becoming new popularity language, unless in to Web 3.0 "there is a sufficient reformist characteristic which is a match" "Web2.0", it truncated. On the one hand, that as for them, enterprise now should form assume, that it is the steady introduction of Web2.0, assures the improvement of strengthening of business structure and competitiveness with the introduction of Web2.0 it appealed.

At general enterprise, at last now, it probably is the place where it embarks on mounting the Web2.0 technology. Already in industry "Web 3.0" has started talking nevetheless.

But we would like you to feel at rest. Americaround ahead the conference "Gartner Web Innovation Summit which" is held in the Nevada state Las Vegas (September 19th? 21 day) with, as for the analysts of the same company, gathering the mouth, "as for Web 3.0 it is no more than a mere marketing terminology", that you declared.

For exampleMitchell Smith of the same company felloe which is the 1 person, "the movement that has come out each of direction it will make the terminology be popular, Web 3.0,, but it sets up and those where it is regarded the person are the vendor which hypothetical technology, semantics Web, it has been about probably to sell Mobile Web and the like", that it points out.

In other words, Smith and others the hypothetical world and seems like Web 3.0 in the technology such as semantics Web, the necessity to acquire "new general term" you think that it is not. With the notion that where you say, in those technologies

"(Presently, with the technology which is called Web 3.0) it is not possible to open up the new times which follow to Web2.0. Also interesting reformist technology being included in, it enters, but the level which at the very most ' Web 2.1 ' with was said nevertheless is ", (the same person)

The computer collection campaign CTBC which makes the responsibility of recycling the manufacturer owe

When we assume, if responsibility of condemned of the used product was at the manufacturer, how it probably will become? CTBC of the environmental group combination which spreads to the All-American (computer collection campaign; Computer Take Back Campaign), when we assume if so is, nationwide recycling network is born as the result, in order to try probably to lose the necessity for the manufacturer to cope afterwards, you have expected that it probably means that harmful matter such as lead, mercury and brominated fire retardant becomes unable to include in the product. This plan ever since 2002 it propelled CTBC, but as for the that much result it had not risen so far. But it seems that the possibility that this year it is finally widely accepted comes out.

Robin Schneider of the Texas environmental campaign which is oneof the nationwidesponsorship groups of CTBC, has recognized the fact that method of thinking enterprise owing the responsibility of condemned, with opinion concerning former North American enterprise responsibility it is incompatible. But, in order with EU to enact collection method vis-a-vis EU countries, the consecutive order which is sought has already come out, also method of thinking the same campaign has obtained hint in the.

If in that kind of order, the choices exist in 2002/96/EC order and other thingsof the European Parliament which orders the enactmentof collection method vis-a-vis EU countries, the RoHS order which prohibits the use of several harmful matters at the time ofproducing (until the order regarding the restriction of use of the specific harmful matter in the home appliance electronic equipment), safety of use is proven REACH that (there is the register,appraisal, approval of the chemical substance and restriction) regulation etc. does not recognize the useof that substance.

This kind of thought differs from the method of thinking the North American enterprise completely. Schneider grimacing, as said the face, "in the United States still, until conviction every chemical substance, it has become the recognition that it is innocence,". But the result of effort of the group such as CTBC and the green piece, presently that kind of recognition slowly has changed.

According to Schneider CTBC was born the protection of the environment group which it is organized is converted because it opposes to the match of the American government which around 2000, it tries to weaken the collection bill which at that time is in the midst of deciding in Europe becoming the cause.

You started CTBC in earnest in 2002. As for the gist of CTBC, it is to boost passing the state national assembly of the collection bill. Even in addition,abandonment todevelopingcountry of the electronic equipment waste which ignored the Basel treaty(the translation article) the counter it has done that it confronts. In addition it opposes to also the recycling program which utilizes the jail. The reason it means that the prisoner and the keeper are exposed to the harmful waste because and, is because the jail always the normality compared to low it means that development of recycling which becomes independent economically because it is possible to contract work at wages, is impaired.

Furthermore, basically CTBC before the recycling has supported also the fact that the hardware is reused, but according to Schneider concerning reuse that to recently it did not seriously consider excessively, it is thing.

In addition as for Schneider, "as for CTBC it focuses on just the American policy. But may be it becomes and that jurisdiction Ku where the manufacturer is various the production line because of administration of justice is prepared specially individually, for the sake of, as for the campaign which we have done it is connected to also the improvement of the circumstance in the countries other than the United States as a result ", that has done.

Purchasing SAP and Business Objects of the BI vendor for 67 hundred million 9,000 ten thousand dollars

It announced German SAP that October 7th, BI (business intelligence) Business Objects of the vendor, sum total 48 hundred million Europe (67 hundred million 9,000 ten thousand dollars) with both corporations agreed by the fact that it purchases.

We have assumed that SAP with the latest purchase, can integrate the software of the same company, and the BI tool which Business Objects has can offer the software which can pursue management circumstance in real time to the customer.

The moth which serves CEO with SAP - can be offered the man person, quickly in press conference after the purchase announcing, "by the fact that Business Objects is purchased, the software which integrates the BI tool, (by comparison with the case where it develops with partner enterprise jointly). The software where the customer finishes, is integrated the ふ biting the whole management, is calculated ", you said.

After the purchasing, Business Objects enters into the affiliation of the SAP group, but you say that it is managed as the organization which becomes independent. The mosquito moth - as for the man person, "as for the field where both corporations overlap almost it is not. It does not do large-scale organization reorganization (with purchase)", that it has explained.

As for John is served with Business Objects, "in the future as for us, in order to be able to cooperate with the SAP product smoothly, it keeps developing the tool", you said. Furthermore after the purchasing as for Business Objects, you say that it is the schedule which keeps offering the BI tool of the respective company in addition to the customer of SAP.

SAP the January last year, "the number of customers 4 times, the strategy that the sale by the new product to 50% of the entire sale pulls up is put out by 2010". The same company last month for medium scale enterprise release does the ERP suite "SAP of Business ByDesign" as the link, aims for new customer acquisition.

On the one hand, also the United States Oracle which is the largest competitive partner of SAP, has purchased the BI vendor in the March this year. From such background, SAP in order to strengthen competitiveness, seems that is finished to step on in the latest purchase.

If as for and Business Objects become one, it is possible to thoroughly contain wide customer layer. When both businesses partner is totaled, it rises 5,000 corporations or more ", you said, emphasized the merit of purchase.

However, the concrete product road map after the purchasing is not made clear. The mosquito moth which receives the question regarding software release time in interview - as for the man person, "as for purchase we have not been formed yet formally, announce (the product road map), it is timewise prematureness", that you expressed.

Furthermore, final value of last week Friday the Europe next in Business Objects stocks was 35 Europe, but the purchase price of SAP, per 1 stocks of 20% extra becomes 42 Europe in this stock price. The latest purchase has obtained the approval of the board of directors both already, passing the approval of the regulation authorities, it is the prospect that it completes to 2008 1st quarter.

IBM, for enterprise preview edition of mash rise tool set release

The United States IBM October 9th, for enterprise release did the preview edition of mash rise tool set "IBM Mashup Starter Kit". Is dispersed the mash raising the data and information from the source which, you say even with the user which is not well versed to IT that it can construct new application.

"Mashup such as RSS Hub Server" because various feeds are retained and, the plural data sources are made to link to this tool set, new edition of interface "QEDWiki" in order to draw up the single view of the data is included, can download preview edition from the AlphaWorks sight of IBM.

"The information which is formed with Mashup Hub is indicated in QEDWiki removes with QEDWiki, can assemble as the widget. It can access various data, it can draw up individual data view combining those with unrestricted, "(the same person)

According to IBM, as for the same company you say that it has tackled the project which offers the visual presentation of operation presently, in cooperation with the major telephone company, combining with information and Google Maps of order inside the enterprise system.

In addition as for IBM, when is useful in also the planner of highway construction, it has explained. If it cooperates the feed of weather intelligence with the data of the engineering and the estimate software, because compared to it can bid project accurately.

According to the raw wood Shin (and others to come, Susumu) person who serves the IT propulsion group leader in medical supply major first Sankyo Co., Ltd. research and development section, at the same company it accesses simply and quickly in the data where the company internal principal decision making person is valuable, combining the XML application of Mashup Starter of IBM Kit and the just system, it calls the thought of liking to try to be able to satisfy individual business needs.

The new edition of VMware and hypothetical conversion suite "Infrastructure" to year Utide load - - the package for SMB in the same time release

The United States VMware announced that October 8th, new edition of the hypothetical conversion software suite "VMware Infrastructure" which includes up-to-date hypothetical conversion hyper visor "ESX Server 3.5" is shipped into year. Small-to-medium-sized scale enterprise (for SMB) it throws also the volume license package to the same time.

According to the announcement of VMware, also new version "VirtualCenter 2.5" of the hypothetical environmental control tool is included in new Infrastructure. At the same company we designate the start of shipment of Infrastructure new edition as within year, we have not made clear concerning detailed time.

In Infrastructure new edition, supporting the Ness Ted page table function for the TCP Segment off load and the memory imagination conversion which decrease the load of CPU SATA (serial ATA) in addition to local storage and 10GB Ethernet and InfiniBand interface. Quasi- imagination conversion (paravirtualization) by the guest OS (Linux) also performance improvement and correspondence etc. to the hypothetical machine of 64GB memory loading and the physical machine of 128GB memory loading are included.

In addition, if the Storage VMotion function which is loaded onto Infrastructure is used, maintenance of the machine and while executing load balancing just, the hypothetical machine the question っ callous which is made to move to another data store becomes possible. Concerning the constitution job of the hypothetical machine, it became easier than past depending upon Guided Consolidation.

VMware Update Manager at one of the new coemponents with Infrastructure, supports the introduction job of the security patch and the bug correction program. Function to do with all hypothetical machines, power without having been turned on, becoming suspended state and doing to reach, there are no times when automatic operation update/correction process receives influence to that.

In addition, also the Distributed POWER Management which contributes to the reduction of the electricity consumption quantity by the fact that power source of the server resource is turned off briskly was loaded anew.

The consul service which supports the server imagination conversion of Dell and the customer strengthening - - the hypothetical conversion functional

Dell announced that October 10th, the consulting service which supports the imagination conversion environmental construction of the customer is strengthened. Because of this, you aim for the server product and the offer of the hypothetical conversion one stop solution which combines service. Collectively, it made that offer of the server who installs the hypothetical conversion software "ESX of VMware Server 3i", is started even within 2007 clear.

2 sockets server "PowerEdge 2970" who loads the Opteron processor

According to Dell, you say that with server imagination conversion "high performance" "mass memory" "electric power consumption grasps the key low,". At such point as for Barcelona, in comparison with the case which the function "Rapid Virtualization Indexing which compensates the memory space control in hypothetical conversion environment (RVI)" by the fact that it mounts, lightens the overhead of ESX, Server does not utilize RVI function, performance 10? 20% it is possible to improve.

Explanation could do by the concert even from Japan AMD. As for Kazuyuki the Tada of same company enterprise business development headquarters headquarters chief, concerning RVI function, "hundreds, inside the data center which is thousands and the server, 10? Influence it is very large as many as 20% for difference to appear in performance. At the laboratory of this corporation efficiency 30% is also an example which was raised ", you said, appealed that efficiency. If it does from Dell, by the fact that Barcelona is loaded anew in the server product, it becomes the appearance where advances from the optimization of hypothetical conversion function at hardware level.

Dell_rapidvirt_thumb.jpg
It was mounted on Barcelona "Rapid Virtualization Indexing (RVI)" the difference of performance when function is utilized. Most under graph state of RVI functional off. 14%? It is found that 23% efficiency has improved,

As a new product, offer of the server who installs ESX Server 3i also within year is planned. ESX Server 3i until recently was necessary, "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3" by the fact that the service console of the base has become unnecessary, it is possible to operate the hyper visor directly on the hardware. Because of that, the server vendor does not depend on the service console, reaches the point where it can offer the server who installs hypothetical conversion function beforehand.

The new product becomes the 4th server product which loads Opteron. To adopt Barcelona to the processor, increase memory capacity and the I/O slot. You say that it corresponds to also the diskless environment which offers only function as a processor.

As for secret of the IT project which does not fail there is clarification,

After all the "basic" software development project spent suitable time and budget, it was held up. The predecessor went away, the newly appointed manager hit to rebuilding. At the place of reflection meeting to become clear, is insufficient it is dense Toda whose advance examination schedule of project, concerning the essential point such as ability of specification and the vendor.

Is regrettable thing, but the failure of IT project is not unusual thing. When the primary cause to which and, project cannot put out the best result and/or ends in the complete failure is sought, without clarifying project sufficiently there is many a thing which arrives to the point which starts. Concrete request and the problematical point where concretely, the user has held the success or failure of IT project, the technical functional important matter which becomes the key, strict schedule, in addition, it can clarify with related budget, the resource and the organizational problem question っ callous just which beforehand and catches high. And, this clarification depends listing to the basic ability, technology and data gathering power for preparing which the manager of IT project has. At below, hint for the person whom it tries to attach that to the body from now on is introduced.

Preliminary investigation it does- - we probably would like to succeed project, paying "suitable attention" to beginning regardless of the scale, in other words it is necessary to do advance examination data gathering plan assiduously. In this, for example, the authorized personnel exceeding the post, there is a method oand the like which participates. Typically, being joint, the technical information where it is necessary to collect, the support person opposite person user of project, concerning budget and the resource etc. it examines. In addition, opening being planned soon, the group etc. which it should investigate formally pertaining to the meeting may be useful, and the person who should interview or project it enumerates. If circumstance permits, looking up cooperation in also the imitation consultant and personal section, necessary information is collected. If appropriate examination is done, you can obtain the guide for formal data gathering, it can procure also the concrete information in addition regarding technology or organization you probably are. When you can obtain information, it distributes to the category which it should consider the occasion where project is planned formally.

It can polish the technology which pays "suitable attention" and- - it plans & it manages the place in order to collect information and opinion, arranges extra interview, those which plan the formality investigation where is useful and execute are the work which requires technology suitably. Therefore, when it polishes IT-RELATED technology it becomes extinct with study and official approval similar, collection power it does information and sponsors meeting and the ability to decide plan it should polish. Otherwise, before starting project, you know, when the key fact which should (you step on there is a possibility project being disturbed "the tail of the tiger" and so on) it probably means to overlook.

You understand organizational dynamics- - the information regarding organization having sharp strategic maneuvers value with sometimes it is widely known. But, that the "power tip/chip" as for being is tend to be forgotten. In organization - - - - with many connections has been held it is something where the person who is even in IT section. Such person passes through just profitable ones to the section to which inside by his by his of the information regarding the budget management user belongs, it becomes "gate turn". At this gate turn influences the type quantitative time of the information which it should let flow, decides the time whether information is shared the other person and the group, how even. As for the project which the IT manager handles, it is not everything doing, at least, as for part, collection method of the information such as that, it is time of the implementor and disclosure and to change method.

For example, in case on of medical site, the case where the doctor records diagnosis and treatment, as for the IT kind of project which changes procedure there is many a thing which receives extreme resistance. If only the project which is ordered from above is advanced simply the importance from under, you encounter to fatal resistance the time, you mean to master difficulty. Therefore, collecting the information which it is related to IT project in advance, relationship and for a long time custom in regard to organization and relationship of power, the project abnormal play question, that it must try means even barely to change can explain that. As for important thing, as for IT project with just rational is decided and, it is the point that they are not simple ones such as technical modification and the kind of improvement etc. where, everyone welcomes they are environment of work and something which quite relates to the political dynamics of organization in a complicated way.

In Oracle and BEA Systems purchase proposition - - BEA "is underestimation", that the presentation of 1 stocks 17 dollar (sum total 67 hundred million

The United States Oracle October 12th, announced that it is the plan which purchases the United States BEA Systems. Oracle per 1 stocks submitted the document which records a purchase presentation amount of 17 U.S. dollars (with sum total approximately 67 hundred million U.S. dollars) to the board of directors applying of BEA. According to Oracle 1 stocks 17 dollar as for the presentation amount which is said, you say that it was decided as the amount which adds 25% premium in BEA stocks final value of 11 days.

According to Oracle, this document have assumed that it is something which shows the fact that the preparation which is advanced already it has been prepared to the process which reaches to the purchase agreement where the same company is formal. The Charles Philips of same company president has commented as follows.

"This corporation serious proposition did with the face value which adds suitable premium vis-a-vis BEA. It is the highest arrival point of the conversation where the management of BEA which we think, that the latest purchase offer, offers the highest value to the shareholder, the employee and the customer of BEA, span these several years occurs repeatedly, you expect that it is quick as much as possible, completes job in an effective way ",

Continuing, Philips after purchase actualizes, supported sufficiently naturally, vis-a-vis the customer and the product of BEA, emphasized that investment of the customer of BEA is protected.

"As for participation of continuous support, you think that it was sufficiently shown with the match to the product which people software and Oracle which includes the sea bell obtain with purchase. In BEA, that does not change completely. If Oracle can acquire BEA, strengthening the engineering resource which promotes middleware product development in the entire world becomes possible. And, this becomes something which brings benefit for the both customers of Oracle and BEA ", (Philips)

BEA of one side on the 12th, recognizes the fact that board of directors of the same company receives the document of the purchase proposition from Oracle, announcing the declaration sentence which is entitled "problem declaration according to the proposition which Oracle has not asked", states the attitude which returns proposition.

As for William the business planning & development charge vise President of BEA, "as for us, regards the management where this corporation does with Oracle so far and checking recently after, that it judged that per 1 stocks 17 dollars the latest proposition which includes the presentation amount which is said, is something which appraises the enterprise, BEA rather too small," you commented, you showed the intention which does not accept the purchase proposition of Oracle.

As for topic with the BEA purchase of Oracle "the repetition of the product" - - the opinion that "HP and CA it is suitable as the buyer of BEA",

As for observation muscle, as for Oracle in the middleware field which begins the application server, you must cope with the problem, repetition of the product the United States Oracle last week, concerning proposing purchase to BEA Systems, it pointed out that.

Both corporations competed extremely in especially application server field. If purchase is formed, Oracle means to acquire the customer basis of BEA with two applications server product lines.

"The aim of Oracle probably is to obtain the customer and the engineer in addition to the product of BEA", that, representation of the Denver BEA user group, . The same person with the original staff of BEA, presently the new enterprise which manages identity technology, has served the technical director

disappointment and the anxiety for the purchase proposition of Oracle. "The employee of that time and BEA where I have been on the register BEA must not have that kind of thing absolutely, you thought that. As for purchase you think that it is the situation which it should grieve. BEA opened up the individual road, but if it is purchased in Oracle, the walking stops ", (the same person)

Representation of new England BEA user group, the barque oral person expressed that it is troubling whether Oracle how integrates the product group of BE that. "Oracle has the product group which is similar very. You do not know well "whether the product of BEA how is integrated in the product line of Oracle, (the same person)

The oral person, using the application server "BEA of BEA WebLogic Server", develops Java based electronic commerce application. As for the same person, as for BEA with the application server still Oracle is led/read, but "if it is purchased, the product road map probably will be confused", that, the viewpoint was expressed. HP and CA, is more suitable as the buyer of BEA is opinion of the same person.

"Oracle thought that it is the database vendor which is superior very. If Oracle replaces the other product to the BEA product, it is splendid, but "(the oral person)

BEA WebLogic of the application server Server and "Oracle Application Server", "BEA WebLogic Portal" of the portal and "Oracle Portal" and ESB (the enterprise service bus)"BEA AquaLogic Service Bus" and "Oracle Enterprise Service Bus" and there is "BEA WebLogic Workshop" of the Java development platform and "Oracle JDeveloper" etc. as the product where both overlaps.

On the one hand, participating in Eclipse Foundation where both corporations promote the development and spread of the open source tool may work plus in integration.

That as for the analyst and either both corporations from the fact that J2EE is adopted, as for the repetition of the product probably do not become big problem, the viewpoint was expressed. "Those where it is important, are to set forth the message which shows how integration is done on the basis of the cooperation of the business person in charge and the technician, clearly", that that is possible, when Oracle same as after the purchasing PeopleSoft, probably can advance the movement of the customer smoothly, the same person talked.

Oracle per BEA stock 1 stocks 17 dollars has presented the purchase amount which is said, but as for BEA as for this amount we have assumed that it is too low. With thought ラシャル, whether 1 stocks 20 dollar is not proper, that it is thing.

On the one hand, as the ordinary vendor without leaping BEA at big business, it is it pointed out that. The annual gross sales of 2007 January period of the same company was 14 hundred million dollars of against the pervious year 17% increase. BEA preceded in application server field, but you overtook Oracle and IBM. Furthermore, many customers, used just the inner Web server part of the BEA product, did not use other function such as security component densely, circumstance of the same company is designated as complicated ones. In addition, now, there are also choices that you use Apache Tomcat of the open source. "Tomcat it is free basically, many people have started to use", (the same person)

BEA recently has set forth various product visions, among those "SOA 360" in order to construct "Project Genesis" in order to draw up mash rise application and SOA and there is "Enterprise 360" because it corresponds to Web 2.0 and so on. As for BEA recently, you appraise that improvement of marketing is being advanced. The same company 2 years ago, had explained SOA from viewpoint of technology, but you say that now it has explained in word of business.

In addition, as for the analyst and nucleus research, in declaration as for the purchase with Oracle, if purchase price is proper, that it is victory, for BEA you expressed. Furthermore the same person, the user of the BEA product, that Oracle from the fact that it attaches importance as the object of the enclosure included, can enjoy the merit of scale and the price aspect probably is under the positive integrated strategy, showed the prospect.

Also the Senior Analyst and baht appraised the plan of Oracle favorably. The same person expressed as follows in declaration. "BEA the application server who is superior, ESB and BPM (process control business) offers the software. With offer of SOA below to big business, IBM and SAP etc. and it can oppose Oracle from front with the purchase of BEA, "

As for QM, "bodily sensation quality of sound and the image which are offered as network service (QoE: Quality of Experience)"quantizing, you appraise. Because of this, until recently being audible cheapness of the sound which is impossible, you called visibility of image, you say that the user "the conversion which is visible" can do quality improvement of the service which bodily sensation is done.

For example, echo (the phenomenon where telephone call sound is audible doubly), the audio spectrum of receiving sound is compared with sending story sound, when similarity is large, it is judged that echo is included. In addition, whether or not as for image, the image where noise is easy to be conspicuous (contrast of image is large whether or not) comparison/the individual index which is decided (DSCQS: Bodily sensation quality is appraised on the basis of the double stimulus continual quality scale).

With QM, the function which supports the sign inspection of high accuracy measurement and quality obstacle of data communication to in addition to is offered.

On the one hand, NM supports the management of use of the large-scale IP network which consists of the communication equipment of several 100000 scales. In addition, besides the fact that it can do obstacle supervision in all parts which from core network reach to access network, correspondence (control) it does even in MPLS/VPLS and VLAN and the like.

Whenboots MinWin, the logograph of standard Windows which imitates the flag was indicated in the starting picture, but the design was something which is written in ASCII letter. This technique is not almost used being something which goes out of use several dozen years ago, other than spamming.

MinWin is used only inside the company Microsoft, unless either the fact that it will commercialize in the future it i calls.

But as for MinWin, with Windows of all versions which in the future are developed including the next generation version which is called "Windows 7", it is the prospect that it is adopted as the basis. Furthermore, other than the thing where, almost there is no information at present time last shipment edition is thrown to 2010 concerning Windows 7.

As for "as for MinWin in the future, it is the schedule which becomes the base of all Windows products. Not only OS which is this room and works many with note PC, you said also OS which is used with media center and the server and the small-sized installed device etc. probably becomes the MinWin base ".

The investigation companon Microsoft analyst and the Michael cherry person point out that there is a legitimate reason in the match of Microsoft like MinWin.

"As spoken the thing of the hypothetical conversion hyper visor whose Microsoft is new, you can think in me. In the near future, it isn't to reach the point which makes several lightweight hyper visor layer work, moves OS on that? So, when we assume that is, in order the first layer (the micro kernel) to make as much as possible small, the same company is all efforts concentrates good thing ", (the cherry person)

Also the hypothetical conversion manager the hyper visor which is called is the software in order to try to be able to share one hardware & the processor with plural OS. As a software based hyper visor, there is "VMware Workstation" "of Virtual PC" of Microsoft and VMware and so on. Microsoft, tried will refer to integrate this technology to Windows concerning the hyper visor from several years, ago.

The cherry person lists the fact that balance of the built-in function in the kernel as the topic of Microsoft regarding the lightweight kernel, and the function which is removed from the kernel in order to raise stability is taken. "(Microsoft) uses the self-control heart as expected, being possible to squeeze the built-in function in the new kernel? For them like difficult thing you can think, "(the same person)

As for the 4Q balancing of accounts of Apple 67% increased profits, Mac and iPhone contribution - - as for the shipment quantity of Mac past the highe

The national assembly should correct the problematical point of the current patent system urgently ", you said.

According to the swell person, the American IT vendor past was caused the patent infringement lawsuit of 193 cases at 21 month, that the among 70% of those the patent speculation house, in other words "the group which buys patent with the purpose which appeals the vendor" was the plaintiff, it is thing. Contrast, the case where the medicine manufacture company has become the defendant of patent infringement lawsuit in this period furthermore calls 24 cases to be no more than 28 cases, that it was disputed at competitive enterprise.

The swell person in order to solve the problem of the patent speculation house which is called "patent trawl", said in the same forum that reformation of the patent lawsuit system is urgent business. Presently, unless the legitimate inventor it becomes disadvantageous, the same person it emphasizes the patent reformation bill where deliberation is discontinued at the Senate. "It is not problem apparent to have done all patent infringement lawsuits, the patent which collects accusing enterprise in the weapon, the speculation house group which aims for a catching lot of money is problem,", (the same person)

On the one hand, that "quite the harsh bill where biotechnology industrial association (BIO) judicial affairs charge assistanconcerning the patent reformation bill which passes the House of Representatives in the September this year, confronts patent" is the unpleasant impression has been shown. The bill which is deliberated at the Upper House is in a state where it has gotten stuck bio industry and medicine manufacture industry, the inventor, with the resistance from part Union.

With the patent reformation bill of the House of Representatives, it reaches the point where the amount of damage the courthouse in patent infringement suing can be appraised softly, it is supported from the group of major IT vendors such as Microsoft and IBM. With existing law, inserting product value of the whole that in consideration, it judges the courthouse even with when just extremely portion of the product has infringed patent generally, but with the same bill, it reaches the point where amount of damage is appraised on the basis of just the value of the infringement part.

"It is not the case that all patents have the same value. Criticality inside the product, it differs in the respective patent ", that the swell person points out. If with the same bill, after the granting the patent it is within 1 year, it can also state objection vis-a-vis that patent.

"As for modification of the patent system there is a possibility of obstructing the innovation. The desire which in the future advances the innovation in medical industry is not unable to decline ", thatns. "Although 30 years later, iPod 10 becomes dollars cheap, the possibility thremedy appearing 10% is not unable to come to the point of either decreasing", that the same person.

As for patent charge attorney an& thel office which sponsor the patent forum, as for estimating the influence of the patent reformation bill you say that it is difficult.

The swell person, that "small industry" of the patent speculation house was born, vents dissatisfaction. "Such industry furthermore the consideration which it tries not to be born is necessary", (the same person)

According t the American Supreme Court makes rule here several years, concerning the problem regarding patent, says that it is the schedule where also the American patent trade mark bureau decides new rule to end of this year. In such rule modification, by the fact that it joins to the bill which takes a second look system the whole patent, "it means that extensive reformation is done at one time", (the same person) with you say.

But bio industry anyhow when it is necessary reformation, for IT industry the swell person you talk. When ", it does not change the system which does not have especially problem from the vendor which it is satisfied with present condition and the て is good voice is heard. But assuming, that there is no problem, for them just problem for the other many vendor, ", (the same person)

Microsoft counter trust decision of the European committee acceptance - - agrees with offer and the like of compatibility information to the open sour

As for the European commission October 22nd, concerning the counter trust method violation Microsoft in Europe, accepted the counter trust decision 2004 it announced that it conceded substantially.

You have expressed that as for the European commission in declaration, "as for Microsoft it agreed to the big modification of 3 points, it agreed to obeying the decision ahead".

The European commission, 4 hundred million 9,700 ten thousand Europe (approximately 6 hundred million dollars) requested the release of media player non on-board edition of payment and Windows XP of the fine with counter trust decision 2004 vis-a-vis Microsoft. Furthermore the European commission in order the server OS of Microsoft, between the server and to release the details of the communication protocol which has been used for the communication with the desktop client in addition to these, had made improvement request to the same company.

As for the European commission at the beginning, as for the correspondence of Microsoft to the improvement request regarding communication protocol we assumed, added the fine of 2 hundred million 8,050 ten thousand Europe in 2006 that it is insufficient, but both reached to reconciliation due to the latest agreement. Because, the open source software developer how utilizes the communication protocol information which Microsoft releases there was argument in one of the cause reconciliation being late to in regard.

It is something where this time, among three modification points where Microsoft agrees first, as counter trust decision 2004 orders, offers compatibility information to the open source software developer, permits the utilization.

It is second to make the payment of the royalty to Microsoft for the offer of compatibility information 1 limit, to decrease the amount to 1 ten thousand Europe. 3rd as for, it is to reduce the royalty of the international license which includes patent substantially.

On the one hand, as for Microsoft, appeal of the same company for 2004 counter trust the European commission gives a decision the European court of the first instance (CFI) the policy of not stating dissatisfaction to being able to retreat to the September this year was set, finally the same decision was accepted.

The software/hardware developer the anxiety which has been held vis-a-vis future product development program became the possibility that it is cleared depending upon the decision of Microsoft which we assume that you follow the decision of CFI.

As for Microsoft on the 22nd, "there is no intention of appealing the dissatisfaction for CFI decision to the European administration of justice courthouse. In the future it cooperates with the European commission and the industry densely, in order to bring the competitive environment vigorous in the IT industry of Europe and the world, it would like to endeavor ", that declaration is announced.

The appeal with Microsoft it rejected CFI which makes base Luxemburg, in the September this year, it lowered the decision that it is reason in the European commission, in regard to two basic points in counter trust suing of problem. Two points, it points to the point which gives damage to the player of competitive other companies with the strategy which loads the media player of the respective company in point and Windows where Microsoft competitive other companies has not shared the important compatibility information of Windows.

Oracle, "the purchase plan answer time limit October 28th" you notify to BEA board of directors

The United States Oracle October 23rd, sent the letter to the board of directors applying of the United States, BEA Systems that the answer for the purchase plan of the sum total 67 hundred million dollars which Oracle presents, October 28th it does to 5 o'clock in the afternoon made that you urge clear.

Furthermore Oracle, if October 28th there is no reply to 5 o'clock in the afternoon, have assumed that the latest purchase plan is withdrawn. According to Oracle the board of directors of BEA, since Oracle doing purchase proposition on October 9th, says that the assembly of Oracle is denied.

In addition Oracle, the business planning charge vise President of BEA, building Klein the 22nd night, representing the board of directors of BEA, when purchase is denied, conveying has made clear. As for BEA purchase amount of the sum total 67 hundred million dollars which Oracle presents, when it is underestimation, had stated dissatisfaction.

As for Oracle the purchase partner it seems that "is consumed", the purchase which becomes long war is proud. But, as for the Charles Philips of same company president, "as for the purchase process of BEA that to long term it does not convert", attitude is made clear.

If it succeeds in the purchase of BEA, Oracle means to be able to absorb the rival of application server field. But as for observation muscle of part, as for Oracle, when it means to hold the problem, repetition of the product in the middleware field which begins the application server you feel concern due to purchase.

As for r in the United States Forrester Research the analyst is served, "the board of directors of BEA is still continued denied purchase says, as for the fight of Oracle and BEA.

If the shareholder (per BEA1 stocks 17 dollars says) accepts amount setting, as for Oracle perhaps, it strikes the move which becomes next, "that it points out.

According t if you think, that Oracle being serious, would like "to control" middleware field, when we would like to supply BEA in the hand, as for desiring you say that it is the natural flow.

"In the Web server and ESB (Enterprise Service Bus) the product and the like there is also a product which overlaps, but there is a product which buries the hole of the portfolio of Oracle in BE

The ride in advance vendor of Cisco and WiMAX to purchase - - that "the power figure of network industry drastically changes", the specialist

As for the United States Cisco Systems around ahead, you signed to the contract which purchases Navini Networks of the WiMAX radio equipment vendor for 3 hundred million 3,000 ten thousand dollars. By this contract, Cisco means roundly every to obtain the customer of Navini which rises to 70 in addition to WiMAX base station and the product line of modem.

As for Navini, the vendor which "the RipWave MX" product line and the customer customer station equipment and the adapter of Mobile WiMAX base station it develops & sells. Transmission distance and quality are raised by the fact thatit does the WiMAX radio wave, it is known by also the fact that "beam forming technology" is owned.

As for Cisco vis-a-vis both parties of fixing WiMAX and Mobile WiMAX, the product group of Navini with the Wi-Fi outside node and the mesh device of the same company the plan which packages. According to the staff of Cisco, as for goal you say that it is stopping to offer the inexpensive radio broadband access in the telecommunication infrastructure in the world.

At this purchase play resembles to the case which purchases the United States Airspace where Cisco is the pioneer of the Wi-Fi switch in 2005. The product of Airspace contributed not only becoming the existence which is indispensable to the Wi-Fi product regardless of outside the interior, now for the wireless LAN of Cisco, when the same company monopolizes the wireless LAN market for enterprise even, largely.

The networking group charge Senior Analyst andof market survey company Instat say "by the fact that Cisco purchases Navini, it drastically changes the power figure of network industry probably will be".

"ITU (the International Telecommunication Union) around ahead, approved WiMAX 3G (the 3rd generation) as standard. And this time the worldwide biggest network vendor started getting down to business in WiMAX technology and that business model. The latest purchase is something which gives big competitive pressure to also the industry major company such as Alcatel-Lucent and Nortel. Such vendor opposing to Navini, the lacquer, it is thought in addition that the opportunity of counter Cisco increases, to developing on a large scale partly due

As for the merit for Cisco, by the fact that you supply the network equipment vendor which is known as the beginning of Mobile WiMAX in the hand, it is to be able to enter into this market even directly. In addition, also the point which does not have those which overlap in both product lines it is good, thatadds.

As for the WiMAX charge analyst and the filling Soviet lith person of ABI research, as for Navini being Mobile WiMAX principal occupation, when corresponding to the customer whose Cisco is wide it points out that it is suitable.

"Mobile WiMAX IP based flat from the fact that network is used, not only the part of the wireless, decreaof the whole network. As for Cisco, it reaches the point where in the future WiMAX can be installed in the various device in several years, it is estimate ", in addition that high speed from the feature, data rate alow, WiMAX carries out big role in the world of the networking, (the Soviet lith person)

NEC throws the new supercomputer, until recently - - per single core loading operational efficiency per 1 node new CPU of 102.4GFLOPS in 13 times that

NEC October 25th, announced the new product "SX-9" of the super computer "SX series" which loads new CPU, started offer from the same day. It has improved efficiency substantially per single core with new CPU which actualizes the operational efficiency, 102.4GFLOPS, in comparison with the type until recently.

Sx9_thumb.jpg
The super computer "SX-9" which loads new CPU, assures substantial efficiency rise

As for SX-9, university and institution, HPC for weather climatic system (High Performance Computing) successor aircraft of server "SX-8". The SX series being domestic so far, sells the sum total approximately 1,100 units. Among those, the number of incoming orders in Japan occupies 50%.

Largest feature per single core is the loading new CPU which actualizes the operational efficiency of 102.4GFLOPS. As for actualizing above 100GFLOPS according to NEC, as a single core you say that it is the world first. Until recently when SX-8 of the type, per 1 node is 128GFLOPS, if you compare, it means to actualize the operational efficiency which is a match to 1 node of SX-8 with only one CPU.

Sx9_slide.jpg Sx9_slide_thumb.jpg
As for the efficiency of new CPU, it is a match to the efficiency per 1 node of type "SX-8" until recently

As for new CPU, while succeeding from the past architecture, the plural improvements such as addition of the computing element and reinforcement of the vector pipeline are administered. 65 nano- meters (nm) with production process, it assures also 1 chip of vector unit and scalar unit.

As for SX-9, per 1 node it is possible to load maximum of 16 CPU. Because of this, operational efficiency is expanded to 1.6TFLOPS. When you compare with SX-8 which shows 1.6TFLOPS with 13 nodes, with SX-9 in the simplicity calculation per 1 node it means that efficiency improvement of 13 times is assured. In addition, because per 1CPU it has possessed also the memory bandwidth of 256Gbps, entire memory bandwidth per 1 node reaches to 4Tbps. As for shared storage per 1 node as for inter- connecting which connects between 1TB and the node by the fact that the high-speed characteristic of 128Gbps is actualized, connection of the maximum of 512 nodes is made possible.

Furthermore in installation area, SX-8 (13 nodes) 19.3? So vis-a-vis being as for SX-9 4.9? By electric power consumption 30kVA and area electric power consumption are reduced to 1 of 4 parts respectively similarly vis-a-vis 108kVA.

The NEC execution official routine work, the Maruyama good one person developed "aiming toward the fact that balance well it offers ease of use and high-speed characteristic, concerning SX-9. (Like IBM) the product development which pursues the highest efficiency the optimum you do not think for the user ", that, the user friendly functional aspect was emphasized.

Nec_mr and maruyama.jpg
The NEC execution official routine work, the Maruyama good one person

Actually, SX-9 for HPC high-speed joint ownership file software "GSTORAGEFS" and has prepared various private software such as the compiler and the efficiency analytical tool which do program such as automatic vector conversion/automatic parallel conversion tuning in addition to OS which is optimized because the large-scale multiple node is formed in addition to consecutive functional strengthening. The user says that by the fact that these software are utilized, quickly it can introduce & can execute SX-9.

The price of SX-9 1 node (per 4CPU loading) reaches approximately 1 hundred million 5,000 ten thousand Yen with smallest constitution. NEC has anticipated the sale of 700 systems in 3 years. If presently, we are advancing the European customer and the business talk of 100 node scale and receive an order you say that it becomes the sale of 100 hundred million Yen scale. In the country, 2008 summer with the goal of delivering SX-9 of 10 nodes in the Osaka university is decisive.

NEC HPC sale propulsion headquarters chief, according to bamboo grass warehouse Takayuki, in the global market of HPC, presently NEC says that it has possessed 20% share. "In the future, that share is made to expand up to 50%, with the throwing SX-9" as for the same person you talked the enthusiasm.
