Submission + - VMware developing dual OS smartphone virtualisatio (computerworld.com.au)

Sharky2009 writes: VMware is developing virtualisation for smartphones which can run any two OSes — Windows Mobile, Android or Lunux — at once. The idea is to have your work applications and home applications all running insider their own VMs and running at the same time so you can access any app any time.

VMware says: “We don’t think dual booting will be good enough — we’ll allow you to run both profiles at the same time and be able to switch between them by clicking a button,” he said. “You’ll be able to get and make calls in either profile – work or home – as they will both be live at any given point in time.”

Submission + - SKA telescope to provide a billion PCs worth of pr (computerworld.com.au)

Sharky2009 writes: "IBM is researching an exaflop machine with the processing power of about one billion PCs. The machine will be used to help process the Exabyte of data per day expected to flow off the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope project. The company is also researching solid state storage technology called 'racetrack memory' which is much faster and denser than flash and may hold the secret to storing the data from the SKA. The story also says that the SKA is unlikely to use grid computing or a cloud-based approach to processing the telescope data due to challenge in transferring so much data (about one thousand million 1Gb memory sticks each day)."
