Cloud computing and open source face-off

,----[ Quote ]
| And Linux will make IBM money when used in cloud-based products which are 
| metered to customers, often by the hour. One big reason that open source will 
| help fuel the rise of cloud computing, while often becoming second fiddle to 
| platforms in the cloud, is that software is only a component of a computing 
| environment, albeit an expensive one and cloud economics almost always favor 
| the incorporation of open source products. However, something that open 
| source has only been partially successful at incorporating as a value creator 
| (essentially, only the cost of development) is what IBM’s Sutor clearly 
| stated: economies of scale.

Google Wave in Research - the slightly more sober view - Part I - Papers

Google Wave in Research - Part II - The Lab Record

,----[ Quote ]
| In the previous post  I discussed a workflow using Wave to author and publish
| a paper. In this post I want to look at the possibility of using it as a
| laboratory record, or more specifically as a human interface to the
| laboratory record. There has been much work in recent years on research
| portals and Virtual Research Environments. While this work will remain useful
| in defining use patterns and interface design my feeling is that Wave will
| become the environment of choice, a framework for a virtual research
| environment that rewrites the rules, not so much of what is possible, but of
| what is easy.
