  2. Today’s Agenda • Dividing Into Groups – Who’s Where • Picking the Winning 1 Topics • The Rest of the Semester • Review Course Calendar • Status Sessions • Mini-Report Requirements • Assign Topics to Each Group • There’s Always Something Out There!

  3. Dividing Into Groups • Only received emails from two groups • So what group are you in?

  4. Digital Optimization Audio Mining Holographic Storage IDS/IPS Longhorn Shadow Copies Challenge/Response Millipede Bayesian Filters Quantum Cryptography Utility Computing G-Windows Disaster Recovery MRAM White Boards Evolution 2 HyperThreading Optical Storage Universal Translation Virtual Desktop Biometrics CAD Search Systems Winning 1 Technologies

  5. A Different Viewpoint • Office Productivity • Hardware Improvements • OS & User Interface Alternatives • Data Protection • Managing IT Infrastructure & Costs

  6. Office Productivity • Paperless Office • Digital Optimization • Business Exchange Technology (XRBL) • Digital Printing • IBM Electronic Common Technical Document Viewer • Portal Technology • Email Efficiency • Challenge/Response • Bayesian Filters • Evolution 2 • Per Per Send Email

  7. Office Productivity (cont.) • Meeting / Instructional / Collaborative Solutions • White Boards • Conferencing / Voice over IP • Search Technologies • Audio Mining • CAD Search Systems • Froogle • Visual Search Engines

  8. Hardware Advances • Processors • HyperThreading / Dual Core Processors • 64-Bit Processors • Blade Servers • PCI Express • Primary Storage (RAM) • MRAM • DDR2 • Secondary/Tertiary Storage • Holographic Storage • Optical Storage (Blue Ray DVD) • Millipede • SANS & Infiniband • Serial ATA

  9. OS and User Interface Alternatives • Operating System Advances • Longhorn • Autonomic Computing • SpecOps and Project David • User Interfaces & Devices • G-Windows • Virtual Desktop • Looking Glass (3-D Desktop) • Magic Pen • Voice Recognition / Response Technologies • Universal Translation • Audio Mining • Voice Authentication

  10. Data Protection • Data Security • IDS/IPS • Quantum Cryptography • Biometrics & Voice Authentication • NTI Secure Toolkit • Data Integrity • Disaster Recovery • Shadow Copies

  11. Managing IT Infrastructure & Costs • Utility Computing • Outsourcing • Grid Computing

  12. Topic Voting • Each task force member gets four (4) votes • 2 votes for most interesting topic (I) • 2 votes for most valuable topic (V) • Cannot vote for your own Winning 1 • After votes are cast, we’ll select the best topics, one for each group • If warranted, can divide a single topic into two areas

  13. Plan for Rest of Semester • Each group will begin working on their final projects • Over the next five weeks, 5 mini-reports to be written • MR1: Background / Current Environment / Context • This one is due on June 15th (next Tuesday) • MR2: Overview of New Technology and Alternatives • MR3: Business Issues • MR4: Technical Details • MR5: Implementation Issues • Each report should meet requirements (see page 14) • MRs should form the basis for your final report • Pull into single file, tie together each MR • Add ES, Intro, Conclusions and combined TOC & LOF.

  14. Plan for Rest of Semester (cont.) • Two ½ hour status sessions between now and final presentations • Sign up sheets will be posted for scheduling appointments • No Thursday classes until final presentations • Use this time to meet with your group members • I will be in the classroom to answer questions • Classes will continue each Tuesday (except 7/1) • Turn in latest mini-report • Lectures or Guest Speakers

  15. Mini-Report Requirements • Each mini-report should contain: • Title Page (e.g., Storage Technologies: Background) • Table of Contents • List of Acronyms and Abbreviations • List of Figures (if applicable) • Body of report w/ section numbering • References • Write and format professionally • Use APA style for references. Include: • In-text parenthetical citations • Hyperlinks to URLs for internet sites • Approximate body length – 6 to 12 pages • Changes in MR Order or Subject Areas?

  16. Topic Assignment • Which topic is your group interested in? • Things to consider: • Larger groups to incorporate more technical information • Networking info can be incorporated where appropriate • Project tasks determined by group members • Each group should meet very soon to plan project • Switching groups is OK if everyone agrees • We’ll take short break, then come back to assign topics to each group. • Come back with 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choices
