IBM System z10 I/O subsystem

IBM Journal of Research and Development, 2009
The performance, reliability, and functionality of a large server are greatly influenced by the design characteristics of its I/O subsystem. The critical components of the IBM System z10™ I/O subsystem have, therefore, been significantly improved in terms of performance, capability, and cost.

IBM System z10 processor cache subsystem microarchitecture

IBM Journal of Research and Development, 2009
With the introduction of the high-frequency IBM System z10™ processor design, a new, robust cache hierarchy was needed to enable up to 80 of these processors aggregated into a tightly coupled symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) system to reach their performance potential. Typically, each time the processor frequency increases by a significant factor, as did

IBM System z10 support for large pages

IBM Journal of Research and Development, 2009
The IBM System z10™ mainframe provides an architectural framework for 1-MB virtual pages. With the new support provided in z/OS® 1.9, these large pages can be transparently used by middleware and applications. The use of large virtual memory pages for storage allocated at addresses above 2 GB can deliver significant performance gains.

Autonomic computing and IBM System z10 active resource monitoring

IBM Journal of Research and Development, 2009
Among the essential components of the IBM System z10™ platform is the hardware management console (HMC) and the IBM System z™ support element (SE). Both the SE and the HMC are closed fixed-function computer systems that include an operating system, many middleware open-source packages, and millions of lines of C, C++, and Java™ application code ...

Sex Pheromone of the Leaf-Miner Phyllonorycter Platani: (Z10)-Tetradecenyl Acetate

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2003
A female produced sex pheromone of the leaf-miner pest Phyllonorycter platani (Staudinger) (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae) was identified as (Z10)-tetradecenyl acetate. Field trapping trials confirmed activity of this compound. The presence of the geometrical isomer (E10)-tetradecenyl acetate, a pheromone component of other Phyllonorycter species ...

Structural and functional test of IBM System z10 chips

IBM Journal of Research and Development, 2009
For the first time in the history of the IBM System z™ family of mainframes, System z10™ processor chips are tested by both structural and functional means. This complementary strategy starts at wafer test and is consistent through system test. In this paper, we describe how traditional and enhanced structured patterns provide fault coverage and how ...

Functional verification of the IBM System z10 processor chipset

IBM Journal of Research and Development, 2009
This paper describes the comprehensive verification effort of the IBM System z10™ processor chipset, which consists of the z10™ quad-core central processor chip and the companion z10 symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) chip. The z10 processor chipset represented a significant redesign of its predecessor and thus presented a new challenge to ensure complete ...

Power and thermal monitoring for the IBM System z10

IBM Journal of Research and Development, 2009
In May 2007, IBM announced Project Big Green, an initiative M. R. Vanderwiel designed to accelerate the adoption of green technologies and services in order to make data centers more energy efficient. An integral part of this strategy is to enable power and thermal monitoring on all IBM server platforms.
