Technology basis
On, in, and around body…
Mobility: essential for people, phone build out
Storing everything you’ve ever…
Home, personal, and media stores
Scalable systems: what is central vs personal?
.net: what does it mean?
– Ease of building reliable, scalable, secure,
transaction & streaming apps
– .bCentral… creating on-line presence

Bell’s Evolution Of

Technology enables two evolutionary paths:
1. constant performance, decreasing cost
2. constant price, increasing performance

Platform evolution:
What do they do that’s useful?
How do they communicate?

In a decade we can/will have:

processing 10-100x
4x resolution (2K x 2K) displays to impact paper
Large, wall-sized and watch-sized displays
low cost, storage of one terabyte for personal use
ubiquitous access = today’s fast LANs
Competitive wireless networking
One chip, networked platforms including light
bulbs, cameras everywhere, etc.
Several well-defined platforms that compete with
the PC for mind (time) and market share
watch, pocket, body implant, home
Inevitable, continued cyberization… the
challenge… interfacing platforms and people.


Life-sized displays for interaction
- and for being anywhere!
Cameras that recognize people
Mics and Speech based interface
Total surround sound
One IP net vs. four (data/a/v/phone)
Coupled to all power, data, audio, and
video/television networks
Interval Research developed a technology
to track individuals in stores!

Clusters, the Grid, Napster,
and Gnutela: going beyond



Clusters allow build your own system of any
size
The Grid has provided facilities, like .NET for
computers to communicate, and share
resources (programs & data).

GRID was/is an exciting concept …

They can/must work within a community,
organization, or project. What binds it?
“Necessity is the mother of invention.”
Taxonomy… interesting vs necessity

Cycle scavenging and object evaluation
(e.g. seti@home, QCD, factoring)
File distribution/sharing aka IP theft
(e.g. Napster, Gnutella)
Databases &/or programs and experiments
(astronomy, genome, NCAR, CERN)
Workbenches: web workflow chem, bio…
Single, large problem pipeline… e.g. NASA.
Exchanges… many sites operating together
Transparent web access aka load
balancing

Facilities managed PCs operating as cluster!
.Net… shifting from client to server



Beyond Browsing: Computer can use the
web. Human accessible services can be
accessed by other computers on the web.
Directory services: e.g. UDDI, Terraserver
XML is the core

VAX Planning Model 1975:
It was very hard to believe it

The model was very good
–
1978 timeshared $250K VAXen
cost about $8K in 1997!
– Minicomputers stayed at the 100K-1M price
SUN Microsystems exploited this.

Costs declined > 20%


users get more memory than predicted
Single user systems didn’t come down

as fast, unless you considerCopyright

Absolutely NOT!
Otherwise HP, IBM would have failed
and SUN wouldn’t have replaced DEC
