Virtual Computing

Concept, Design, and Evaluation

By: Dongmin Kim,Salim Hariri

The evolution of modern computers began more than 50 years ago and has been driven to a large extend by rapid advances in electronic technology during that period. The first computers ran one application (user) at a time. Without the benefit of operating systems or compilers, the application programmers were responsible for managing all aspects of the hardware. The introduction of compilers allowed programmers to express algorithms in abstract terms without being concerned with the bit level details of their implementation. Time sharing operating systems took computing systems one step further and allowed several users and/or applications to time share the computing services of com puters. With the advances of networks and software tools, users and applications were able to time share the logical and physical services that are geographically dispersed across one or more networks. Virtual Computing (VC) concept aims at providing ubiquitous open computing services in analogous way to the services offered by Telephone and Elec trical (utility) companies. The VC environment should be dynamically setup to meet the requirements of a single user and/or application. The design and development of a dynamically programmable virtual comput ing environments is a challenging research problem. However, the recent advances in processing and network technology and software tools have successfully solved many of the obstacles facing the wide deployment of virtual computing environments as will be outlined next.

1001 Inventions

The Enduring Legacy of Muslim Civilization

By: Salim T. S. Al-Hassani

Modern society owes a tremendous amount to the Muslim world for the many groundbreaking scientific and technological advances that were pioneered during the Golden Age of Muslim civilization between the 7th and 17th centuries. Every time you drink coffee, eat a three-course meal, get a whiff of your favorite perfume, take shelter in an earthquake-resistant structure, get a broken bone set or solve an algebra problem, it is in part due to the discoveries of Muslim civilization.

This book revolves around Jana's story from 1991 until this year and how she overcomes all obstacles to reach and attain her PhD. Jana Salim suffered a lot to know God and to know that He loves her a lot. It isn't easy with all the temptations in life. Jana faced a lot of financial difficulties, health problems, bad peers and friendship, family fights, bad relationships--standing by her principles and trying to reach peace between Israel and Palestine at the University of Tennessee by defending Palestine and Iraq and how she got to love and explore God in China. She discusses also JanaPay, the bitcoin wallet, and how bitcoin will be distributed to people according to their life deeds. Who has won? Jana? Or her extremely bad situations from financial situation, her facial hair, her depression, or her family bad situation? She sure is the winner with the guidance of God and has reached her safe destination.
