Layered security is a well-documented practice that allows an organization selectively to implement multiple layers of security technology for its plant control systems. The technology is applied ...

Sun Microsystems has bought Q-layer, a Belgian vendor of software for automating the management of computing clouds, it said Wednesday. The acquisition provides a clue as to how Sun plans to go about ...

Interest is growing in cloud computing’s ability to reduce carbon, but the ‘green cloud’ argument is not as clear as many believe. I’ve argued over the years that cloud computing is a step in the ...

As the interest in cloud native computing has grown and with the implementation of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), which serves as the vendor-neutral home for many open-source projects, ...

A cohort of 38 undergraduate students and first-year graduate students from more than 20 colleges and universities across the country attended the two-day “Cross-layer Computing Summer School: ...

The definition of the edge has changed significantly over the last five years. Today, an edge represents more than a CDN or a compute layer. It has evolved into an extension of the public cloud ...

Computer scientists have created software that they hope will lead to data centers that logically function as single, plug-and-play networks that will scale to the massive scale of modern data center ...

Today, Sun Microsystems has expanded its cloud computing offering with the announced acquisition of Q-layer, a Belgium-based startup company with less than 30 people. As seems typical, the deal was ...

To demonstrate this design, the team created a chip measuring 4 mm 2, made up of three computing layers. Each layer contained an image sensor, an optical communications system, and an artificial ...

Physical device scaling of traditional silicon metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) has driven progress in computing for decades 6; however, continued scaling is becoming ...
