| You may be able to cut the energy mainframes use but a lot of energy is still required to cool the machines. |
|
| Throughout my 20s I was a computer programmer writing software for IBM mainframes. |
|
| Early terminals provided just a user interface, leaving the processing to powerful mainframes. |
|
| Of course, it helps that mainframes have full-time technicians available to keep them up and running. |
|
| Terabytes of storage residing on tape is more economical than residing on mainframes in open systems. |
|
| Despite the proliferation of computers of every size, mainframes still house most of the world's data. |
|
| There are over 140,000 employees and over 3500 people on PCs and mainframes that I support. |
|
| If our experience with water cooled mainframes is anything to go by, the question remains over where the bucket to catch the drips should be placed. |
|
| Most of the back-end transaction processing takes place on IBM mainframes. |
|
| To do this, Compaq acquired Tandem Computer, maker of famously reliable mainframes, and then Digital Equipment Corporation, the original maker of minicomputers. |
|
| These usually take the weight of the cylinders in front or of the firebox at the rear end when the width of this exceeds that of the mainframes. |
|
| The new interface can be used on oscilloscope mainframes as well as offline on a PC with Agilent's N8900A Infiniium offline analysis software. |
|
| During the last 10 years, as each generation of mainframes has become twice as fast, microcomputers have become four times faster. |
|
| Moreover they are spreadly diffused and, in comparison with mainframes, they allow an easy direct access to system resources. |
