SEIDENBERG NAMING SPARKS MEDIA ATTENTION |
The receipt of a $15 million gift and the subsequent
naming of the school in honor of the donor, Ivan G.
Seidenberg, Pace trustee and alumnus, and chairman and
CEO of Verizon Communications, Inc., have generated
a great deal of interest on the part of the media.
On October 14, 2005, the Wall Street Journal
announced the gift in the "Gift of the Week: Tech Support"
column. Other publications including the Westchester
County Business Journal and the Journal News
followed suit with impressive photos and lengthy articles
about the school, its dean, and how the monies are to
be spent.

SEIDENBERG - ONLY SCHOOL IN THE U.S. TO RECEIVE
IBM BLADECENTER GRANT |
Through the efforts of Dr. Lixin Tao, Computer Science,
and Dr. Christelle Scharff, Computer Science, the Seidenberg
School is one of only two academic institutions to be
awarded a BladeCenter system from IBM. The other is
in St. Petersburg, Russia! A BladeCenter, consisting
of a few compact chassis that host many powerful server
CPUs, provides infrastructure in support of high-performance,
server-side computing. The BladeCenter will be used
to enhance two existing courses - CS 644 Internet Computing
with Distributed Components and CS 646 Enterprise System
Integration with Web Services - as well as a new course
in Grid Computing to be offered in Summer 2006.
