 IBM to help CERN build massive data grid
IBM's innovative storage virtualization and file management technology will play a pivotal role in this collaboration, which aims to create a data file system far larger than exists today to help scientists at the renowned particle physics research center understand some of the most fundamental questions about the nature of matter and the universe.
Conceived in IBM Research as Storage Tank®, the new technology is designed to provide scalable, high-performance and highly available management of huge amounts of data using a single file namespace regardless of where or on what operating system the data reside.
IBM and CERN will work together to extend Storage Tank's capabilities so it can manage and provide access from any location worldwide to the unprecedented torrent of data -- billions of gigabytes a year -- that CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is expected to produce when it goes online in 2007.

 Irving Wladawsky-Berger   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
For example, in our own such studies in IBM, a major conclusion of the 2004 Global Innovation Outlook (GIO1.0) was that innovation is increasingly collaborative and open, as more and more, it results from people working together in new and integrated ways.
Similarly, in the 2006 CEO study that was released this past March one of the key themes that emerged from the CEO interviews was that external collaboration is indispensable for innovation, with customers and business partners cited as top sources of innovative ideas.
Collaboration and humility are particularly important for those companies that like IBM are addressing problems in business, government, health care, technology and science that are very sophisticated in nature and are pushing the envelope in what is possible.
