Unix

Unix operating systems are widely used in both servers and workstations. The Unix environment and the client-server program model were essential elements in the development of the Internet and the reshaping of computing as centered in networks rather than in individual computers.

Both Unix and the C programming language were developed by AT&T and distributed to government and academic institutions, causing both to be ported to a wider variety of machine families than any other operating system. As a result, Unix became synonymous with "open systems".

Unix was designed to be portable, multi-tasking and multi-user in a time-sharing configuration. Unix systems are characterized by various concepts: the use of plain text for storing data; a hierarchical file system; treating devices and certain types of inter-process communication (IPC) as files; and the use of a large number of software tools, small programs that can be strung together through a command line interpreter using pipes, as opposed to using a single monolithic program that includes all of the same functionality. These concepts are known as the Unix philosophy.

Under Unix, the "operating system" consists of many of these utilities along with the master control program, the kernel. The kernel provides services to start and stop programs, handle the file system and other common "low level" tasks that most programs share, and, perhaps most importantly, schedules access to hardware to avoid conflicts if two programs try to access the same resource or device simultaneously. To mediate such access, the kernel was given special rights on the system, leading to the division between user-space and kernel-space.

The microkernel concept was introduced in an effort to reverse the trend towards larger kernels and return to a system in which most tasks were completed by smaller utilities. In an era when a "normal" computer consisted of a hard disk for storage and a data terminal for input and output (I/O), the Unix file model worked quite well as most I/O was "linear". However, modern systems include networking and other new devices. As graphical user interfaces developed, the file model proved inadequate to the task of handling asynchronous events such as those generated by a mouse, and in the 1980s non-blocking I/O and the set of inter-process communication mechanisms was augmented (sockets, shared memory, message queues, semaphores), and functionalities such as network protocols were moved out of the kernel.

Lotus 1-2-3

Company / developer:
  IBM Corporation

• Speech-enabled SmartMaster templates: Voice-activated 1-2-3 SmartMaster templates let users move quickly through common tasks such expense reporting or loan amortization. (Note: IBM ViaVoice is not included.)
• Improved compatibility with Microsoft Excel: Enhanced filters provide better-than-ever read and write compatibility with Microsoft Excel files up to and including Excel 2000. Lotus 1-2-3 Release 9.8 reads and writes Excel text, numbers, formulas, formatting, drawings and charts. The Excel Menu finder also trains new 1-2-3 users to navigate 1-2-3.
• @Functions provide analytical power and improved Microsoft Excel compatibility.
• Copy and move worksheets: Lotus 1-2-3 allows users to move and copy entire worksheets. Users can drag the sheet to the desired destination or use the menu.
• SmartLabels: In 1-2-3 Release 9.8, SmartLabels let users summarize a range by typing “Total.” Now, 1-2-3 also recognizes more than a dozen predefined terms such as “Subtotal,” “Maximum” and “Average,” making formula building faster and easier. Users can also add terms, assign synonyms and customize the list of SmartLabels.
• Automatic SmartFill: Filling a range with a sequence of text, dates or times is quicker and easier than ever with SmartFill. 1-23 Release 9.8 anticipates what users would like to type and enters suggested text. If “April” is entered in a cell and “M” is typed in the next cell, 1-2-3 automatically adds “ay” and waits for the user to accept it or type different text.
• More rows: 1-2-3 Release 9.8 worksheets have 65,536 rows.
• Ask the Expert provides detailed answers to users' questions, even if they are entered in the user's own words.
• Excel Menu Finder makes it easy for Excel users to work in Lotus 1-2-3. Users simply choose an Excel command to display the name of the equivalent 1-2-3 command.
• Technology: With 1-2-3 Release 9.8, workbooks can be launched and edited in Active Document containers such as Internet Explorer or Lotus Notes 4.6. In addition, users can embed and automate Active-X controls directly into 1-2-3.
• Euro currency support: 1-2-3 Release 9.8 supports the Euro currency. SmartSuite continues to support the ECU as well as the Euro. The currency is supported in cells and charts.
• Copy/Paste: 1-2-3 Release 9.8 can copy row heights and column widths to locations in the spreadsheet, saving setup time.
• Data validation add-in: Lotus 1-2-3 Release 9.8 allows users to set criteria to restrict the type of data they can enter in a cell or range of cells. With the Data Validation Add-in, users restrict cell entries by making sure that the type of data entered meets a particular condition.
• Auto Save: Lotus 1-2-3 Release 9.8 helps minimize data loss if a computer loses power. Users can have 1-2-3 automatically save changes to open files at regular intervals.
• Keyboard switching: Lotus 1-2-3 Release 9.8 allows users to switch to different keyboard layouts while editing a file. This feature is handy for international users.
  

• Web tables: 1-2-3 Release 9.8’s Web tables enable users to send and pull useful data from any table on any HTML page of the Internet or corporate intranet and deliver it directly into a workbook. Stock quotes, for example, can be extracted live from a Web page and pulled into an investment portfolio spreadsheet. The Web table can be refreshed manually or automatically.
• Hyperlinking: Hyperlinks can be assigned to any spreadsheet, cell picture or button. They also can be created for Internet locations, spreadsheet ranges or objects and other files.
• HTML features: 1-2-3 Release 9.8 includes HTML 3.2 support for opening and converting spreadsheet ranges to HTML documents. Spreadsheet-specific extensions allow 1-2-3 users to share files using HTML as a common file format while preserving important spreadsheet information such as cell colors, formats, actual numbers (e.g., p = 3.14159265, not 3.14), named ranges and number formatting. Lotus 1-2-3 also offers native HTML support with XML support.
• Publishing Assistant: 1-2-3 Release 9.8 helps users select an entire workbook, a particular page or a selected range for Web output. The Publishing Assistant also provides options for adding a link to the original file for other users to download.
• HTML on Clipboard: This feature selects data from browsers or Notes Release 5 and pastes it into 1-2-3 as a parsed HTML table.

HotDocs

Company / developer:
  Matthew Bender & Company, Inc.

HotDocs

Using HotDocs, you can transform any word processor file into an interactive template. Simply replace the changable text with HotDocs variables and identify text that may be included in or excluded from the final document. Then, the next time you want to generate a completed document, just assemble the interactive template you've created. As you do this, you will be prompted to answer questions, and the appropriate information will be merged into the document.

When using HotDocs, you can perfect a template, minimizing the "human error" factor that repetitive typing introduces. Additionally, you can automate your templates so that verb tenses, gender references, dates, numbers, calculations, and more are updated automatically as users enter information. Custom interview questions and help resources guide you or your users through the interview.

Virtually any document in your workflow can be converted to a HotDocs template, including lengthy and complex documents. HotDocs templates then become your gold standard—experienced colleagues can share their knowledge, and new colleagues come up to speed faster. Using HotDocs, you can compile an invaluable repository of special language, unique clauses or terms, correspondence, and more.

HotDocs can be integrated with databases, practice management systems, case management systems, and other vital components of your organization's technology infrastructure.
