netfinity
manufacturing
greenock scotland
Every important e-business application resides on some
computer server, somewhere. This IBM manufacturing site
turned out nearly half of the hundreds of thousands of
Netfinity servers shipped to customers in 1999.
Netfinity’s ability to bring mainframe-style reliability to the
red-hot market for servers based on Intel processors is one
reason it increased its market share last year.
next generation internet
singapore
The Next Generation Internet will transmit video, audio and
data 1,000 times faster than today. But what will the world
do with so much speed and bandwidth? In development centers
worldwide – including Singapore, where virtually every
home has a high-speed, broadband connection – IBM
“Internet jockeys” explore next-generation applications like
global videoconferencing, virtual reality-enabled
manufacturing, and telemedicine, as well as full-screen,
interactive distance learning.
