  1. Sun Project Center: A Term 2008 Sun Microsystems Burlington campus since 1998 “The Network is the ComputerTM” Research Projects SunSpots [CS / ECE / RBE] Fortress [CS] Application Projects GlassFish [CS] DarkStar [CS / IMGD] • Key Facts: • Shuttle bus access from WPI • Starts two weeks prior to A term • Interviews to take place in Nov. • Decisions by Dec. 15th George Heineman, Site director, heineman@cs.wpi.eduGary Pollice, co-director, gpollice@cs.wpi.edu

  2. SunSpots • Small Programmable Object Technology • Java-base Operating Environment • NetBeans Development Tools • Secure & Scalable • 180MHz 32-bit ARM920T • 2.4 Ghz Wireless (IEEE 802.15.4) • Application ideas are endless George Heineman, Site director, heineman@cs.wpi.eduGary Pollice, co-director, gpollice@cs.wpi.edu

  3. Fortress object LoggingReduction extends Reduction[\String\] join(a:String, b:String): String = do a b end empty(): String = "" end run(args:String...) = do loggingBody(i:ZZ32): String = do println("Iteration " i) "i" i end r = (1:16).generate[\String\](LoggingReduction, loggingBody) println(r) end • Fortress is a new programming language designed for high-performance computing (HPC) with high programmability • Design • Programming Languages • Multi-Core Capabilities George Heineman, Site director, heineman@cs.wpi.eduGary Pollice, co-director, gpollice@cs.wpi.edu

  4. GlassFish • Delivering a Java EE Application Server • free, open-source • implements newest features in the Java EE 5 platform • Join open-source GlassFish Community • Numerous offshoot projects George Heineman, Site director, heineman@cs.wpi.eduGary Pollice, co-director, gpollice@cs.wpi.edu

  5. DarkStar • Supports massively scalable back-end infrastructure to develop games to be deployed on a massive scale • Server-side “taken care of” by Sun • Open Source • Big Initiative at Sun George Heineman, Site director, heineman@cs.wpi.eduGary Pollice, co-director, gpollice@cs.wpi.edu
