Cloud, Cost Cutting, Continuity Top IT Management Concerns

What are the top concerns that keep IT executives up at night? SIM (Society for Information Management) surveyed 172 C-level IT executives, including CIOs, Chief Technology Officers and CISOs (Chief Information Security Officers) to find out. Here, eWEEK presents the findings in a countdown of the 10 most important issues these high-ranking technology executives said they were facing in 2010. IT executives are facing business pressure like never before and are heavily scrutinized for return on investment in five major areas of technology. The five most invested areas (from 5 to 1) are cloud computing, business continuity/disaster recovery, virtualization, enterprise resource planning and business intelligence. With executives spending 75 percent of their time in non-technical related work, it’s no wonder you see the data line up so closely with business management issues that align closely with business strategy, product management and projects that aim to profit from technology investments& and not just keep the data center working well and backed up. That’s not to say that CIOs are not concerned with infrastructure management. They most certainly are, but mostly by employing technologies that allow for solid performance at maximum cost-efficiency levels. Business intelligence has ranked as the most invested technology over the last three years, according to Chief Research Analyst and Stevens Institute of Technology Professor Jerry Luftman. Companies, while being challenged by BI implementations, expect to see the merits of their investment in the next year. – …

Cutting Mainframe Costs: Top 10 Management Practices

Modern mainframe computers have abilities that are defined not much by their single task computational speed& usually defined as mips (millions of instructions per second)& but by their redundant internal engineering, which provides high reliability and security, extensive input-output facilities, and high utilization rates to support massive throughput.

Female genital cutting: Ending a brutal practice

Westerners debate, afresh, how best to stop the cutting of girls’ genitals

FOR a group dedicated to the health and well-being of children to advocate the cutting of girls’ genitals seems inconceivable. But the American Academy of Paediatrics (AAP), in a review of its policy on the practice known as female circumcision, did tentatively ask if, in order to avoid the most dangerous behaviour, doctors should be allowed to perform some kind of “ritual cut” in the clitoral skin. The academy likened it to ear-piercing and said that it might satisfy the cultural requirements of people wedded to the practice.

After a chorus of condemnation the AAP swiftly released a new statement, anxiously stressing that it does not endorse “clitoral nicks”. Judith Palfrey, the group’s president, says there is absolutely no case for it and that doctors must oppose all forms of genital cutting on girls. The academy’s British and Australian counterparts, and the UN, have voiced a similar position. …

Cutting the clutter

A wireless replacement for all those pesky power cables

BENEATH your correspondent’s desk is a cat’s cradle of tangled cables linking a pair of computers to numerous peripherals and laptops around the office. On the credenza opposite is another jumbled nest of wires for recharging mobile phones, cameras, netbooks, MP3 players and other portable gizmos. When everything is humming, there are no fewer than 15 transformers plugged into various wall sockets and power strips, along with all the other electrical cables for powering computers, monitors, printers and still hungrier office gear.

Lately, your correspondent has taken to unplugging the power adaptors—at least those he can lay his hands on—when they are not being used to recharge their tethered friends. As it is, his office becomes a veritable Christmas tree of fairy lights at night with all the red, green and amber standby diodes twinkling in the dark. …
