MacEnterprise Day 2005 Presentations E-mail
Written by MacEnterprise   
Tuesday, 26 July 2005

Thanks to the work of Richard Glaser, we've managed to get the videos of the presentations from
MacEnterprise Day 2005 online.

---------------------------
MacEnterprise Day - Opening
---------------------------
http://data.scl.utah.edu/fmi/xsl/stream/details.xsl?-recid=220

Learn what MacEnterprise.org is all about, where we expect to go in the future and how you
can be a part of it. Join a roundtable discussion with members of the MacEnterprise.org Steering
Committee and community members about the available solutions and resources for your Apple
Enterprise deployment.

We will also discuss opportunities for participation in Macenterprise.org, including such topics as
Microsoft Exchange, Business Solutions, and- Safari.

Apple Remote Desktop 2 introduced an incredibly powerful relational database. Learn how
this database can be leveraged through your deployment and inventory process and
how it is integrated with a help desk at one institution to provide exceptional customer service.

The cornerstone of many enterprise deployments is leveraging existing network infrastructures.
One of the growing areas in the enterprise is the use of global network directories.
Join us for an open discussion of network homes and directory services. This session
will be conducted by an informal panel in which the audience can help drive the discussion
related to our topics.

Parallel Computing
------------------

by Dean Dauger, Dauger Research
Charles Parnot, Stanford University
James Reynolds, University of Utah

The three participants will present their work in Parallel computing with the Macintosh:
Combining powerful, numerically-intensive parallel computing clusters with the famed
ease-of-use of the Macintosh, Pooch is the only solution that merges a modern graphical
user interface with supercomputer compatible parallel computing. This software enables
users, without any expertise with OS X, world-wide to develop and run parallel code
eficiently and productively.

This session will also include discussion of a particular biological model and the
architecture of the Xgrid-aware application built to run computations used to analyze
biophysical studies done in the lab towards the goal of better
understanding one receptor involved in heart regulation.

Since the oficial release of XGrid, it has been used to render POV-Ray and Maya
animations with more accuracy and ease, using modifications of Apple's Xgrid sample
code to submit jobs. Experiences and future plans for releasing a submission and job
queue engine for Maya and POV-Ray will be shared.

Richard Glaser, University of Utah

Using streaming relays, live streams are accessed (via cgi redirection) from local
servers to create a statewide streaming network without impacting Internet bandwidth
for each client connection. In addition, video on demand content is replicated from a
central repository nightly.

In another current implementation, 15 channels including closed captioning are
delivered via IP based television and video distribution system to a large campus
community. Learn what's happening with the expansion to 80 channels, and the move
to H.264 with QuickTime 7, QuickTime Broadcaster 1.5, and Mac OS X Server 10.4.

Learn about a new Directory Service QuickTime Streaming Server plug-in. The QTSS plug-in
allows administrators to access user and group account information provided by
Directory Services information.

Lastly, a session will also discuss a project of migrating the libraries analog collection
to digital streamed network using a homebrewed media asset database providing ACLs
for archived audio/video, live media-like presentations, TV channels, multiple analog
sources that analog devices can be remotely controlled, RSS feeds, podcasts and
much more.

by Doug Willen, Swarthmore College
Greg Neagle, Disney
Jeremy Reichman, RIT

What should be considered when deploying Macs? What questions should be asked in
preparation? How can you effectively deploy in a multi-platform environment? Come and
learn and discuss best practices with experienced Mac administrators.
