A simulation that could take hours with conventional FEA software for instance, could be done in seconds with Akselosplatform.

Today Akselos software runs on a similar principle, but with new software, and cloud-based service.

You ve updated your operating system and now you need to reboot. This is so the computer can switch to the modified source code.
and commercializing software called Ksplice that automatically applies patches (security updates or bug fixes) to an operating system on the fly without requiring a reboot.
Based on Arnold s award-winning MIT master s thesis the novel software compares changes between the old
and updated code and implements those changes into a running Linux kernel an operating system s core data-processing component.
In essence it does something that could normally be achieved only by shutting down the operating system. The software also incorporates novel techniques that remove the need for programmer intervention with the code (a trademark of performing updates without Ksplice)
which decreases the cost and risk of error Arnold says. The aim is to allow administrators the benefit of the update
while eliminating both the cost and downtime for the users Arnold says. After winning the 2009 MIT $100k Entrepreneurship Competition for the software Arnold co-founded Ksplice Inc. with Waseem Daher 07 MENG 08 Tim Abbott 07 SM 08
and Anders Kaseorg 08 in Cambridge to launch it as a commercial product. Arnold served as the company s CEO.
In just 18 months Ksplice accumulated 700 customers independent firms government agencies and Fortune 500 companies that were running the software on more than 100000 servers.
which is now providing the software to its Oracle Linux customers which include banks retail firms and telecommunications companies worldwide.
After the purchase the Ksplice team joined Oracle to help the company integrate the software in its products.
As of today Ksplice has only ever run on Linux operating systems. But Daher says the code is written in a way that should make it potentially expandable to other products such as Mac and Windows operating systems.
Object focusedthe process of updating running kernels is called hot updating or hot patching and predates Ksplice.
when two or more software components have the same name. Ksplice however hot patches the object code using two novel techniques invented by Arnold.
This wait unfortunately resulted in a cyber attack that required reinstalling all the system software. That s what motivated
Arnold and Daher are now working on another software startup at the Cambridge Business Center and still keep in touch with the VMS they say.
To develop the memorability algorithm the team first fed the software a database of more than 2000 images.
