TRIPOS EXPANDS PLATFORMS FOR SYBYL DISCOVERY SOFTWARE TO INCLUDE HP WORKSTATIONS & SERVERS.Tripos Inc. (Nasdaq: TRPS TRPS Trigger Point (myofacial pain) TRPS TrichoRhinoPhalangeal Syndrome TRPS Temperature Regulating Power Supply TRPS Time Reporting and Payroll System ) announced that it is working with Hewlett-Packard Co. to expand the range of operating systems Operating systems can be categorized by technology, ownership, licensing, working state, usage, and by many other characteristics. In practice, many of these groupings may overlap. and hardware platforms Each hardware platform, or CPU family, has a unique machine language. All software presented to the computer for execution must be in the binary coded machine language of that CPU. Following is a list of the major hardware platforms in existence today. See platform. available to scientists involved in the design and discovery of new chemical entities. HP VISUALIZE workstations and HP 9000 Technical Servers will support the Tripos' SYBYL line of discovery software tools. Widely recognized in the field of molecular informatics and design, Tripos provides a comprehensive integrated set of software tools for molecular design and analysis. HP provides leading-edge operating systems and hardware that are already in use by research teams for laboratory measurements and data management. Together, the two companies establish a complete computational solution for drug discovery that spans chemical design, laboratory testing, and informatics. "Tripos' SYBYL software tools require high-performance graphics and computational capabilities that HP VISUALIZE workstations and HP 9000 Technical Servers deliver," says David Valenta, Global Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Solutions Market Development Manager for HP's Technical Computing Division. "In addition, because HP offers solutions on Linux, Windows NT and UNIX operating systems, customers have a breadth of choices in computing platforms." Tripos' full range of software products, including ChemEnlighten for decision support on the corporate intranet and ALCHEMY 2000 for desktop modeling, will be demonstrated at the 219th American Chemical Society The American Chemical Society (ACS) is a learned society (professional association) based in the United States that supports scientific inquiry in the field of chemistry. Founded in 1876 at New York University, the ACS currently has over 160,000 members at all degree-levels and in Spring Exposition in San Francisco, Calif. At the Moscone Convention Center, March 26-28, 2000. Tripos' SYBYL will be featured on the HP VISUALIZE workstation, which is part of HP's line of workstations that employ UNIX UNIX Operating system for digital computers, developed by Ken Thompson of Bell Laboratories in 1969. It was initially designed for a single user (the name was a pun on the earlier operating system Multics). , Windows NT or Linux operating systems and the industry-leading fx line of OpenGL graphics cards. HP 9000 Technical Servers combine the 64-bit HP-UX HP's version of Unix that runs on its 9000 family. It is based on SVID and incorporates features from BSD Unix along with several HP innovations. (operating system) HP-UX - The version of Unix running on Hewlett-Packard workstations. 11 operating environment, the PA-8600 RISC RISC in full Reduced Instruction Set Computing Computer architecture that uses a limited number of instructions. RISC became popular in microprocessors in the 1980s. architecture with 1.5MB of on-board cache, and multiprocessor capability. |
