A new approach to Business Process Management (BPM) is the use of BPM and SOA together in a layering strategy. This white paper explores the BPM layered concept and offers a case study of how ABN AMRO, one of the world's largest financial institutions, has benefited from its deployment. 

Virtualization basically means inserting a software layer between your hardware and your operating system. This decouples the operating system from the hardware and allows you to run many operating systems at the same time on top of that same physical piece of hardware. Read this short paper to learn about the benefits of using virtual servers. 

This article describes and discusses benefits of a research prototype, P-MAPS, a processor-measured service layer that dynamically reduces the trusted computing base (TCB) and verifiably improves the runtime security of user's applications, without interrupting the typical operation of the user OS. 

The head of IT for Sunco Cabinets, a small business, felt the new Web Security service might be the answer to simplify enforcement of Sunco's Internet use policy and protect against emerging web-based threats.
