2011-10-06

ATLANTA, GA, October 05, 2011 (Press-News.org) Reliant Technology would like to announce the new IBM Cost Reduction System, a strategic cost reduction strategy for IBM customers with limited budgets and growing data storage costs. Reliant Technology has created this system to help enterprises find cost-saving IBM storage solutions that will meet the data demands of the future despite stagnant or declining IT budgets.

IBM customers can depend on Reliant Technology for competitive prices on used IBM equipment, IBM upgrades, IBM SAN equipment, replacement disks, and tape drives. Reliant Technology offers IBM DS3000, DS4000, DS5000, and DS8000 series and upgrades, as well as other IBM SAN equipment.

In addition to data storage hardware, Reliant Technology offers maintenance solutions for IBM customers. Enterprises that would like to reduce their maintenance costs can employ Reliant Technology to provide hardware maintenance and support. Reliant Technology offers several levels of data storage maintenance and support, which can be tailored for the individual needs of the enterprise. Savings can then be used to fund storage upgrades, expansion of current data storage systems, or offset the increasing costs of data and storage.

"The IBM Cost Reduction System is a thorough audit and defined strategy designed to save hundreds of thousands of dollars for enterprises who are utilizing IBM storage equipment," explains Reid Smith-Vaniz, CEO of Reliant Technology. "Our storage specialists are trained to reduce your IBM storage costs as much as possible so that you can leverage the storage you know and trust at an affordable price."

Reliant Technology also gives customers the means to repurpose legacy systems, and as a result, reduce the total cost of ownership of their IBM storage arrays, tape systems, and SAN solutions. Any IBM customer who want to upgrade and improve their IBM storage arrays can leverage Reliant Technology to repurpose legacy systems for data backup or disaster recover, both of which save the enterprise time and money. Customers interested in repurposing data storage systems can contact Reliant Technology for assistance and guidance throughout the process. Reliant Technology can help customers find storage solutions that provide ongoing cost savings and help them prepare for future data growth demands.

To win hearts and minds, focus on small projects, study finds

2011-10-06

U.S. efforts to bring stability to Iraq and Afghanistan in recent years have focused less on killing insurgents and more on gaining the cooperation of the local population. But does this population-centered approach to counterinsurgency actually work? A study published today (October 4, 2011) in the Journal of Political Economy finds evidence that it does. The study, by economist Eli Berman (University of California, San Diego) and political scientists Jacob Shapiro (Princeton) and Col. Joseph Felter (Stanford), focused on the Commander's Emergency Response Program ...

Scientists identify microbes responsible for consuming natural gas in Deepwater Horizon spill

2011-10-06

In the results of a new study, scientists explain how they used DNA to identify microbes present in the Gulf of Mexico following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill -- and the particular microbes responsible for consuming natural gas immediately after the spill. Water temperature played a key role in the way bacteria reacted to the spill, the researchers found. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) published the results in this week's journal. David Valentine and Molly Redmond, geochemists at the University of California at Santa Barbara (UCSB) conducted ...

Researchers question key quality measure for asthma

2011-10-06

AURORA, Colo. -- Researchers studying the first national quality measure for hospitalized children have found that no matter how strictly a health care institution followed the criteria, it had no actual impact on patient outcomes. The scientists examined 30 hospitals with 37,267 children admitted for asthma from 2008 to 2010 and discovered that the quality of discharge planning made no difference to the rate of return to the hospital for another asthma attack in 7, 30 or 90 days. "Our research concluded that there is no relationship between compliance with this measure ...

Prison education programs reduce inmate prison return rate, University of Missouri study shows

2011-10-06

COLUMBIA, Mo. -- According to the Pew Research Center, one in one hundred American adults is currently in prison. U.S. Department of Justice statistics show that 67 percent of those inmates will recidivate, or re-offend and return to prison after they are released. Now, a University of Missouri researcher has found that educating inmates and preparing them to find jobs upon their release from prison greatly reduces their recidivism rate. Jake Cronin, a policy analyst with the Institute of Public Policy in the Truman School of Public Affairs at the University of Missouri, ...

New tool helps identify prostate cancer patients with highest risk of death

2011-10-06

Fox Chase Researchers Develop a New Tool That Helps Identify Prostate Cancer Patients with the Highest Risk of Death MIAMA BEACH, FL (October 4, 2011)––After a prostate cancer patient receives radiation treatment, his doctor carefully monitors the amount of prostate-specific antigen, or PSA, in his blood. An increase in PSA, called biochemical failure, is the first detectable sign of the cancer's return to the prostate. Fox Chase Cancer Center researcher have found that the time between the last radiation treatment and biochemical failure can accurately predict a patient's ...

Fox Chase Gleason scores better predict prostate cancer's recurrence after radiation

2011-10-06

MIAMA BEACH, FL (October 4, 2011)––In a new study led by Fox Chase Cancer Center radiation oncologist Natasha Townsend, M.D., researchers have found that Gleason scores determined by pathologists at Fox Chase Cancer Center more accurately predict the risk of recurrence than Gleason scores from referring institutions. She presented the new research at the 53rd Annual Meeting of the American Society for Radiation Oncology on Monday, October 3. When a man is diagnosed with prostate cancer, his tumor is assigned a Gleason score – a number between 2 and 10 indicating the ...

Study shows looking for job on Internet reduces unemployment time

2011-10-06

DENVER (Oct. 5, 2011) – A new study shows that using the Internet to look for a job reduces the time spent unemployed by an average of 25 percent. The discovery directly contradicts a 2004 study showing that using the Internet actually prolonged unemployment. "In 2004 the researchers came up with two scenarios for their findings – the Internet was not an effective tool or that people who looked on-line for jobs were not as qualified," said Hani Mansour, Ph.D., assistant professor of economics at the University of Colorado Denver who conducted the new study with Peter ...
