The Ibm Poster Program

In the late 1960s, IBM was one of the world's pre-eminent corporations, employing over 250,000 people in 100 countries and producing some of the most advanced products on earth. IBM President Thomas J. Watson Jnr. sought to elevate the company's image by hiring world-renowned design consultants, including Eliot Noyes and Paul Rand. As well as developing the iconic IBM logo and a corporate design guide, Rand also brought together a remarkable team of internal staff designers. One of the designers he hand-picked was Ken White, who, along with John Anderson and Tom Bluhm, headed up the design team at the IBM Design Center in Boulder, Colorado. Together, they initiated a poster program as a platform for elevating internal communications and initiatives within the company. These posters were displayed in hallways, conferences rooms, and cafeterias throughout IBM campuses, with subject matter including everything from encouraging equal opportunity policies, to reminders on best security practices, to promoting a family fun day. Designers often incorporated figurative typography, dry humor, visual puns, and photography to craft memorable and compelling messages.

IBM® Content Navigator provides a unified user interface for your Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions. It also provides a robust development platform so you can build customized user interface and applications to deliver value and an intelligent, business-centric experience. This IBM Redbooks® publication guides you through the Content Navigator platform, its architecture, and the available programming interfaces. It describes how you can configure and customize the user interface with the administration tools provided, and how you can customize and extend Content Navigator using available development options with sample code. Specifically, the book shows how to set up a development environment, and develop plug-ins that add an action, service, and feature to the user interface. Customization topics include implementing request and response filters, external data services (EDS), creating custom step processors, and using Content Navigator widgets in other applications. This book also covers mobile development, viewer customization, component deployment, and debugging and troubleshooting. This book is intended for IT architects, application designers and developers working with IBM Content Navigator and IBM ECM products. It offers a high-level description of how to extend and customize IBM Content Navigator and also more technical details of how to do implementations with sample code.

In 1956, IBM tapped the industrial designer and architect Eliot F. Noyes to reinvent the company s corporate image, from stationery and curtains to typewriters and computers to laboratory and administration buildings. IBM would go on to assemble a cast of leading figures in American design, including Charles Eames, Paul Rand, George Nelson, and Edgar Kaufmann Jr., who transformed the relationships between design, computer science, and corporate culture. "The Interface" is the first critical history of the industrial design of the computer and an invaluable perspective on the computer and corporate cultures of today."

Microservices is an architectural style in which large, complex software applications are composed of one or more smaller services. Each of these microservices focuses on completing one task that represents a small business capability. These microservices can be developed in any programming language. They communicate with each other using language-neutral protocols, such as Representational State Transfer (REST), or messaging applications, such as IBM® MQ Light. This IBM Redbooks® publication gives a broad understanding of this increasingly popular architectural style, and provides some real-life examples of how you can develop applications using the microservices approach with IBM BluemixTM. The source code for all of these sample scenarios can be found on GitHub (https://github.com/). The book also presents some case studies from IBM products. We explain the architectural decisions made, our experiences, and lessons learned when redesigning these products using the microservices approach. Information technology (IT) professionals interested in learning about microservices and how to develop or redesign an application in Bluemix using microservices can benefit from this book.

This introduction to the organization and programming of the 8086 family of microprocessors used in IBM microcomputers and compatibles is comprehensive and thorough. Includes coverage of I/O control, video/graphics control, text display, and OS/2. Strong pedagogy with numerous sample programs illustrates practical examples of structured programming.
