Image Applix 1616 logo.png right 265px The Applix 1616 was a kit computer with a Motorola 68000 Central processing unit CPU , produced by a small company called Applix in Sydney, Australia , from 1986 to the early 1990s. It ran a custom Computer multitasking multitasking multiuser operating system that was resident in Read only memory ROM . A version of Minix was also ported to the 1616, as was the ManaGeR MGR Window System . Andrew Morton computer programmer Andrew Morton , designer of the 1616 and one of the founders of Applix, later became the maintainer of the 2.6 version of the Linux kernel . History Paul Berger and Andrew Morton formed the Australian company Applix Pty Ltd Pty. Ltd. in approximately 1984 to sell a Z80 card they had developed for the Apple IIc that allowed it to run CP M . This product was not a commercial success, but Paul later proposed they develop a Motorola 68000 based personal computer for sale in kit form. The project was presented to Jon Fairall, then editor of the Australia and New Zealand electronics magazine Electronics Today International , and in December 1986, the first of four construction articles was published as Project 1616 , with the series concluding in June 1987. In October and November 1987, a disk controller card was also published as Project 1617 . Over the next decade, about 400 1616s were sold. ref http kerneltrap.org node 10 KernelTrap.org interview with Andrew Morton ref Applix Pty.

Unreferenced date October 2008 Original research date October 2008 RTOLAP Real Time OLAP Whilst many OLAP Servers such as Microsoft Analysis Services store pre calculating consolidations and calculated elements to achieve rapid response times. A Real Time OLAP Server will calculate the values on the fly, when they are required. The essential characteristic of RTOLAP system is that it holds all the data in RAM. It is a protocol that analyzes fly values when required. It saves every bit of information in RAM. The calculations are executed in a right away manner which reduces the setback linked with information outburst since it only saves information under the RAM size standard. Advantages Since precalculated values aren t stored the size of a cube in an RTOLAP system will be smaller than that of an OLAP product which resorts to precalculation. RTOLAP often reduced the problem which may be associated with Data explosion since less data is stored. RTOLAP essentially performs calculations just in time by only calculating values when they are needed space can be saved, since in a precalculated system, a great deal of calculations will be stored which may well never be called up. Incremental updates are available as soon as they are loaded, and any modifications to data will flow through the system immediately. With RTOLAP when a change is made, everyone sees the result. This isn t a unique characteristic of RTOLAP, since other OLAP systems e.g. Microsoft Analysis Services , MicroStrategy behave the same way. Disadvantages Since RTOLAP stores the entire cube in RAM, it doesn t scale to the data volumes larger than the RAM size Performance of queries can be slower since the values need to be calculated on the fly instead of being accessed from the precalculated storage Products Applix Applix TM1 http www.palo.net Palo Open Source http www.acinta.dk Acinta website in Danish Infor Infor PM Olap Formerly MIS AG MIS Alea Panoratio Category Online analytical processing ... more details

Data in IBM Cognos TM1 is stored and represented as MOLAP multidimensional OLAP OLAP cube cubes , with data being stored at the leaf level. Computations on the leaf data are performed in real time for example, to aggregate numbers up a dimensional hierarchy . IBM Cognos TM1 includes a data orchestration environment for accessing external data and systems, as well as capabilities designed for common business planning and budgeting requirements e.g. workflow, top down adjustments . Several new features were added to IBM Cognos TM1 9.5, the most visible being TM1 Contributor, which combines an OLAP engine with the enterprise planning capabilities of IBM Cognos Planning in a Web based client. Other features include an Undo Redo capability that lets users store a collection of data value changes and walk back through the actions to undo them pick lists for cells to reduce the amount of data entry performed sandboxes for creating personal modeling scenarios and data entry shortcuts. Another Web client option for IBM Cognos TM1 is IBM Cognos TM1 Web, which enables business users to develop and publish web based applications, using Microsoft Excel as an authoring medium. IBM Cognos TM1 Web is developed in ASP.NET , and is compatible with Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox .

This price was reduced to 200 in October 1996, and, by 2000, during the dotcom bubble , the Applixware Words word processor was available for 50 in GTK toolkit versions Applixware 5.0 and Anyware 2.2 . These offers and the GTK toolkit were subsequently abandoned when the dotcom bubble burst, and priority was given back to versions aimed at Vistasource s core customers in financial, defense and government markets. While not the first graphical word processor for Linux EZ Word , part of the Andrew User Interface System , has that honor , nor the first proprietary word processor for Linux WordPerfect was first made available for Linux by Caldera company Caldera in late 1995 , Applixware Words was a good deal more user friendly than EZ Word and a good deal more bug free than early Linux releases of WordPerfect. The Applixware Words module waned in popularity among Linux users when full featured open source word processors, such as OpenOffice.org and AbiWord , became available.

MDX has been embraced by a wide majority of Comparison of OLAP Servers OLAP vendors and has become the standard for OLAP systems. History MDX was first introduced as part of the OLE DB for OLAP specification in 1997 from Microsoft . It was invented by the group of Microsoft SQL Server SQL Server engineers including Mosha Pasumansky . The specification was quickly followed by commercial release of Microsoft OLAP Services 7.0 in 1998 and later by Microsoft Analysis Services . The latest version of the OLE DB for OLAP specification was issued by Microsoft in 1999. While it was not an open standard, but rather a Microsoft owned specification, it was adopted by the wide range of OLAP vendors. This included both vendors on the server side such as Applix , icCube , MicroStrategy , NCR Corporation NCR , Oracle Corporation , SAS Institute SAS , SAP AG SAP , Teradata , Whitelight , and vendors on the client side such as Panorama Software BI Panorama Software , PowerOLAP , XLCubed , Proclarity , AppSource , Jaspersoft , Cognos , Business Objects , Brio Technology , Crystal Reports , Microsoft Excel , and Microsoft Reporting Services.
