Two Web 2.0 Tools Behind the Scenes: TZO and Carbonite

I usually write about applications that are very visible to web users. In this post, I will look a bit behind the scenes at tow products. First there is TZO. Most web sites are supported by multiple servers, even small firms quickly graduate beyond a single server as traffic builds. Optimizing load balancing has usually meant an expensive hardware purchase with associated implementation and administration costs, limiting access to these resources to large enterprises with big IT. Recently I talked with with Chris Cook, the Director of sales and Marketing at TZO, a Boston-based firm that is offering load balancing as an on-demand software service at dramatically reduced price points.

Individual-Based Models
Individual-Based Models
an annotated list of links
by Craig Reynolds



Individual-based models are simulations based on the global consequences of local interactions of members of a population. These individuals might represent plants and animals in ecosystems, vehicles in traffic, people in crowds, or autonomous characters in animation and games. These models typically consist of an environment or framework in which the interactions occur and some number of individuals defined in terms of their behaviors (procedural rules) and characteristic parameters. In an individual-based model, the characteristics of each individual are tracked through time. This stands in contrast to modeling techniques where the characteristics of the population are averaged together and the model attempts to simulate changes in these averaged characteristics for the whole population. Individual-based models are also known as entity or agent based models, and as individual/entity/agent-based simulations.
