Acknowledgments
The research described in this book was carried out at the University of Idaho, Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), California Institute of Technology, at the IBM Federal System Division and subsequently at Loral Space Information System, and at the Storage Technology Corporation. The work at the University of Idaho was partially supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation. Portions of the work performed at JPL were sponsored by the U.S. Air Force Operational Test and Evaluation Center (AFOTEC) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's IV&V facility.
Special kudos go to Dr. Allen Nikora of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory; Ted Keller, now of IBM Global Services; and Richard Karcich, now at Sun Microsystems. They have provided the opportunity to investigate and analyze large systems.
