	IBM Rochester - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		IBM Rochester is the facility of International Business Machines in Rochester, Minnesota.
		Along with the Mayo Clinic, the IBM plant is one of the biggest employers in the Rochester area, reportedly numbering around 5,000 in 2002.
		The plant, which is near U.S. Highway 52 in the northern part of Rochester, was recognized in 1990 by the National Building Museum as one of the significant contributions of IBM to the built environment of the United States, along with IBM's New York City headquarters and the IBM building in Atlanta, Georgia.

	Baldrige Award Recipients--IBM Rochester - AS/400 Division (1990)
		IBM Rochester recently strengthened its strategic quality initiatives by formulating improvement plans based on six critical success factors: improved product and service requirements definition, an enhanced product strategy, a six-sigma defect elimination strategy, further cycle time reductions, improved education, and increased employee involvement and ownership.
		IBM Rochester invests heavily in education and training, the equivalent of 5 percent of its payroll.
		To strengthen its competitive quality position, IBM Rochester is aiming for a tenfold improvement in key quality areas by 1991, a hundredfold improvement by 1993, and a six sigma level of defects by 1994.

	A Case Study at IBM-Rochester, MN: Organizational Strategy For Pollution Prevention (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		In response to this policy, the IBM Rochester, MN facility implemented a CFC elimination plan that targeted 1993 as the year in which all CFCs, used in products and processes, would be removed from the plant.
		CFC 113 is used at IBM Rochester primarily as a solvent in vapor degreasers that clean flux and other soils from printed circuit boards and other parts, prior to their installation in computer components.
		That deadline was advanced to 1993, but the IBM Rochester plant manager chose to exceed those expectations by setting a goal of 1991 to eliminate major uses of CFC at IBM Rochester.

	P2: 1992 Governor's Awards Winners
		In 1987, IBM Rochester was the fifth largest emitter of ozone-depleting CFCs in the nation.
		IBM took a considerable risk in cleaning magnetic disks and piece parts of hard disk drives with water-based systems, In making the conversion to water-based cleaning systems, management directed the CFC elimination team to make no compromises on quality and safety.
		IBM Rochester's source reduction of CFCs was a wise decision for the environment and the company's bottom line.

	IBMs eServer i5 plans for 2005 and beyond - Computer Business Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		IBM is also readying a 1U, two-way p5 and OpenPower (the Linux-only variant of the Power5 "Squadron" family) server for early 2005, presumably to be called the p5 525 when it runs AIX and Linux and the OpenPower 725 when it runs only Linux.
		IBM Rochester has no plans to support this server, either, mainly because such densities are apparently less important in the iSeries world than in the HPC markets.
		IBM is in development of the Power6 systems, and it will be using the 90 nanometer and future 65 nanometer processes it is creating with many partners to radically improve the performance of its Power chips.

		ROCHESTER, Minn. (AP) — IBM Rochester is the first division of the computer giant to be equipped for what company officials are touting as the "on-demand" era.
		IBM, which has headquarters in Armonk, N.Y., said that on-demand solves a problem for many small- to medium-size businesses who often buy more electronic horsepower than they typically need in order to be prepared for peak business times.
		IBM now is equipping the iSeries with processors that can be switched on and off as they are needed, said Ian Jarman, an iSeries product manager.

	IBM opens Blue Gene/L utility center in Minnesota - Computer Business Review
		Suffice it to say, IBM Rochester has no shortage of smart nerds, and that is why the Blue Gene/L supercomputer is built there and that is also why, says Mark Solomon, the man behind the supercomputer utility centers at IBM, the company decided to locate the first Blue Gene utility in Rochester.
		IBM's first customer for Blue Gene is the US Department of Energy, which is installing a 64-rack, 360-teraflops Blue Gene/L system at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory to help it simulate and manage the country's stockpile of nuclear weapons.
		IBM says it has created a highly secure virtual private network to give customers access to the utility, which is particularly important since the kinds of military and commercial simulations that run on supercomputers are by their very nature something that organizations want to keep secret.

		IBM is the only company to be on the “100 Best” and “Top 10” lists for each year that these awards have been given.
		IBM Rochester helped develop Blue Gene/L the most powerful supercomputer, on the earch with performance at 360 teraflops while using one third the power and yet ten times smaller than the previous number one.
		Rochester is also home of the world renowned Mayo Clinic and because of this, the city is a center for medical and technological breakthroughs.

		IBM engineers and designers, working together with Mayo Clinic physicians and radiologists, have created a small, wireless device that monitors the breathing of the patients using an LED display which can be set to a known state when the desired location is visible on the CT scan.
		The iSeries, IBM says, is coming off a "milestone year" for the platform with its "highest level of growth in nearly 10 years." Rochester expects to continue this resurgence with the upcoming POWER5 Plus i5 servers expected to be announced early this year, and it promises to intensify its efforts to market the iSeries.
		IBM said the White House specifically cited IBM’s innovations in multi-core processors, dynamic random access memory, the first use of both copper-on-chip and silicon-on-insulator construction of microchips, and high-speed silicon germanium chips, which are important to wireless devices.

		IBM itself long has said its target for its AS/400 servers and their iSeries successors is small and medium-sized businesses, as well as small units of corporations, such as individual stores or departments.
		IBM’s advertising approach has minimized the AS/400 family of servers to placate other IBM divisions, particularly the mainframe unit, Kelly says.
		In 2000, IBM rebranded all its machines ‹ from the largest mainframes to comparatively small Intel-based servers ‹ as "eServers." The AS/400 became the eServer iSeries 400; next the "400" was dropped; now, it is the eServer i5, a reference to its Power5 processing chip.

		IBM was good to me. In my career I lived and worked in Europe twice and my jobs were always challenging and I had a remarkable amount of autonomy.
		After returning from Germany we decided it was time to move closer to family in the Midwest - so I transfered to IBM at Rochester, Minnesota where I worked on MVS/TSO systems to develop a wide range of tools for the developers of the brand new S/38.
		After returning to Rochester from England, I joined a project whose goal was to greatly improve the reliability and speed of the VNET (this is the IBM internal network - used to transfer gigabytes of data daily between hundreds of machines world-wide).
