On-Demand Webcast: Electronic Data Discovery - Offload IT
Dear SearchStorage.com member,
Electronic discovery often means abandoning your normal work (or,
more likely, adding to it) in favor of conducting a highly reactive
exercise in data location and processing.
The Enterprise Discovery Platform ("EDP") brings a measure of control
back to the corporation. Attend this Webcast and learn how to:
- Connect IT and legal through a common technology framework
- Empower legal to perform e-discovery tasks directly
- Legal holds can be instituted and managed without end-user
involvement
- Conserve your IT department's time and resources and let legal
regain control of the e-discovery process

Death of the Hardware Engineer
Exactly two hundred years ago this June, Augustus De Morgan was born. Arguably, before that time, there were no logic designers in the world. For the next 200 years, however, logic designers steadily increased in number until today, when we walk the earth in six or seven digit numbers. In the big picture, however, the time for our species may be drawing to a close. Self-made storm clouds have been on the horizon for awhile now, the engineer-extincting meteors are headed for earth, and the distant dirge of death for the digital design profession as we know it grows ever-louder over the horizon.

C to FPGA
Altera Accelerates Nios II
FPGAs are making big inroads in the embedded systems space as system-on-chip platforms. The recipe is solid – whip together a processor with some peripherals all connected to an on-chip bus or switch fabric. Add a little off-chip RAM and Presto – instant embedded system, ready to be changed at a moment’s notice, even after it’s in your customers’ hands. From 50,000 feet, it looks like the ideal solution for leading-edge embedded development. Of course, like any seemingly idealized solution, it has its limitations. That’s why there’s still competition.

FAA Saves Time and Money with Open Source
The Federal Aviation Administration saved $15 million dollars and completed an upgrade to the air traffic control systems in one-third of the projected time.
"The upgrade is part of a broader service-oriented architecture initiative that will replace proprietary traffic management systems with applications using Java, Web services, open-source software and Oracle products. …
The air traffic flow system, called the Enhanced Traffic Management System, predicts traffic surges, gaps and volume across the national airspace. The FAA tracks about 8,000 airplanes at any given time. The agency uses the real-time analysis system to keep the skies running smoothly.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux is on all traffic management systems at the traffic flow central processing facility, located at the Transportation Department’s Volpe Center in Cambridge, Mass. More than 100 sites rely on the system for air traffic management, including military facilities and international sites." (FCW)

Linux Has Fewer Bugs Than Rivals
Wired has an article stating that according to a four-year analysis of the 5.7 million lines of Linux source code conducted by five Stanford University computer science researchers, the Linux kernel programming code is better and more secure than the programming code of most proprietary software.
