CDO2 Unlocks The Power of Sun Grid for Faster Financial Risk Simulation

Running CDO2 Pricing and Risk Simulation Software on Sun Grid Compute Utility Cuts Transaction Time from Days to Under an Hour; CDO2 Opens Sun Grid Demonstration in London

SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- August 24, 2005 -- Sun Microsystems, Inc. (NASDAQ: SUNW), today announced that CDO2, a provider of innovative pricing and risk technology for organizations trading structured credit products, has successfully completed a trial deployment of its financial services software on the Sun Grid Compute Utility. Sun Grid helps customers and partners derive immediate benefits from an open, grid-based computing infrastructure on a utility basis by giving them more choice and control over how they purchase and leverage IT.
When powered by Sun Grid, the time required for complex financial risk simulations using CDO2 technology is reduced from days to under an hour, allowing CDO2 to reach an expanded set of customers for whom such simulations were previously too time-intensive and costly.

Microprocessor Design Sun also announced that CDO2 and Sun are developing a demo center in Sun's UK-based Customer Briefing Center in Guillemont Park, allowing potential customers to 'try' CDOSheet on the Sun Grid using their own data. Extended trials can also be booked on Sun Grid running in Scotland.

Sharing of Information Within the Wilmington Trust Corporate Family How We Share Information From time to time, such as for responding to client inquiries, for risk control purposes, or when we think it may help to meet your financial goals and objectives, we may share certain information with companies that are part of the Wilmington Trust corporate family. These companies all provide financial services, such as loans, leases, brokerage and insurance services. The information we share within our corporate family might come from any of the sources described previously under "What Information We Obtain."

Intel Motherboard "Since we have dramatically reduced time to market and costs by using Sun Grid, we can now give our customers access to a level of computing power they have never had before," said Gary Kendall, director, CDO2. "Until recently, only large banks could take advantage of advanced pricing models and enterprise technology. Now, with Sun Grid's ability to optimize for exactly the amount of computing resources each customer needs on a utility basis, we've eliminated these barriers."

The A+ Core Hardware exam tests your knowledge of the central role played by the system's microprocessor, which has become essential knowledge for the professional PC repairperson. There was a time when replacing the CPU was very complicated. However, today's motherboards feature sockets and slots into which several types and versions of microprocessors can be interchanged. You still have to watch out for compatibility issues, but it's not uncommon for customers to want you to upgrade their PC instead of replace it.

Gigabyte Mainboard "With Sun Grid, our partners can deliver applications faster to their customers through the simplicity of the grid," said Stuart Wells, executive vice president, utility computing, Sun Microsystems. "CDO2's deployment reveals the opportunities created, particularly for smaller ISVs, to reach broad audiences; and for their smaller business customers to tap the computing resources and software previously available only to larger institutions."

You need fairly long power supply cables especially for the CPU, Optical drives (top of case) and Motherboard power.

History Of Microprocessor CDO2 specializes in providing the latest pricing algorithms and risk methodology for structured credit derivatives. Until recently, these algorithms were only available in-house at large investment banks. With the company's CDOSheet application, users are able to price and risk manage structured credit products (CDO and CDO squared tranches) from a spreadsheet. All trade and market data is stored centrally so that it is easy for users to share information, and calculations are performed across a grid of networked computers.

Motherboard Issues There are a number of important things that differentiate motherboards in the desktop Windows marketplace, including bus speed, the type of CPU chip supported, in support for sound, FireWire, graphics and RAID controllers. in options directly on the motherboard, such as graphics and audio support. expensive systems more difficult to upgrade later. More expensive motherboards have faster bus speeds and support for larger amounts of RAM and peripherals via AGP video and PCI slots. For video editors, it's once again best not to skimp on the raw processing power and upgradability of a system, resolution work or 3D graphics production. Often you don't have a choice of a motherboard in a stock system, but you can be certain that eMachines use a cheaper motherboard than, say, Alienware does.

Ecs Motherboard The CDO2 proof of concept (POC) demonstrates the benefits and scalability of running CDOSheet on Sun Grid. The POC ran CDOSheet on a 128 node (256 CPU) Sun Grid using the Solaris 10 operating system (OS). Written using Java 2 Standard Edition (J2SE) 5 software, CDOSheet also leverages the Java dynamic networking capabilities of Jini network technology to accommodate the dynamic addition and subtraction of computing resources. This enables the application to scale dynamically, as needed to achieve the desired levels of performance running on the Sun Grid. The system was installed on the grid in less than one week and run remotely via London from a data center in Scotland. To measure scalability, a complex financial simulation of a CDO squared portfolio which would normally require days to run on a single PC was initiated. With the power of the Sun Grid, the simulation was completed in less than an hour.
