An overlay upgrade from 6. 5. x to the 6. 5. 22 maintenance release is available as a free download, whereas versions 6. 5. 23 and higher require an active Silicon Graphics support contract, despite only running on Silicon Graphics hardware.

Compaq and Silicon Graphics decided to abandon further development of the Alpha and MIPS architectures respectively in favor of migrating to IA-64.

During the same period, Unix computer workstations from vendors such as Sun Microsystems, Hewlett-Packard, Silicon Graphics, Intergraph, NeXT and Apollo were using TCP / IP based networking.

Silicon Graphics ( SGI ) refocused its business from desktop graphics workstations to the high-performance computing market in the early 1990s.

At its introduction, the 68000 was first used in high-priced systems, including multiuser microcomputers like the WICAT 150, early Alpha Microsystems computers, Sage II / IV, Tandy TRS-80 Model 16, and Fortune 32: 16 ; single-user workstations such as Hewlett-Packard's HP 9000 Series 200 systems, the first Apollo / Domain systems, Sun Microsystems ' Sun-1, and the Corvus Concept ; and graphics terminals like Digital Equipment Corporation's VAXstation 100 and Silicon Graphics ' IRIS 1000 and 1200.

In 1988, MIPS Computer Systems designs were noticed by Silicon Graphics ( SGI ) and the company adopted the MIPS architecture for its computers.

After Andreessen graduated in 1993, he moved to California and there met Jim Clark, the recently departed founder of Silicon Graphics.

OpenGL was developed by Silicon Graphics Inc. in 1992 and is widely used in CAD, virtual reality, scientific visualization, information visualization, flight simulation, and video games.

By the early 1990s, Silicon Graphics ( SGI ) was a leader in 3D graphics for workstations.

Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. is an American video game developer and publisher founded on February 8, 1991 under the name Silicon & Synapse by three graduates of UCLA ,< ref name =" UCLAHonorDinner2006_11_06 ">

Silicon Graphics, Inc. ( commonly initialised to SGI, historically sometimes referred to as Silicon Graphics Computer Systems or SGCS ) was a manufacturer of high-performance computing solutions, including computer hardware and software, founded in 1981 by Jim Clark.

The remains of Silicon Graphics, Inc. became Graphics Properties Holdings, Inc.

In 1999, in an attempt to clarify their current market position as more than a graphics company, Silicon Graphics Inc. changed its corporate identity to “ SGI ”, although its legal name was unchanged.

During the Silicon Graphics Inc .' s second bankruptcy phase, it was renamed to Graphics Properties Holdings, Inc .( GPHI ) in June 2009.

In 2010, GPHI announced it had won a significant favorable ruling in its litigation with ATI Technologies and AMD in June 2010, following the patent lawsuit originally filed during the Silicon Graphics, Inc. era.

DVI's digital video transmission format is based on PanelLink, a serial format devised by Silicon Image Inc. PanelLink uses transition minimized differential signaling ( TMDS ), a high-speed serial link developed by Silicon Image.

He founded several notable Silicon Valley technology companies, including Silicon Graphics, Inc., Netscape Communications Corporation, myCFO and Healtheon.

Silicon is an alternative to lead ; however, when silicon is used in a brass alloy, the scrap must never be mixed with leaded brass scrap because of contamination and safety problems.

They met Philippe Kahn, who had just moved to Silicon Valley, and who had been a key developer of the Micral.

In the 1970s the fundamental inventions by Federico Faggin ( Silicon Gate MOS ICs with self aligned gates along with his new random logic design methodology ) changed the design and implementation of CPUs forever.

Silicon dioxide ( usually called simply " oxide " in the semiconductor industry ) may be deposited by several different processes.

Silicon nitride is often used as an insulator and chemical barrier in manufacturing ICs.

Silicon nitride deposited by LPCVD contains up to 8 % hydrogen.

are Silicon Creatures, humanoids of a silicon base that are similar to cyborgs.

Silicon carbide has two similar crystalline forms, which are both related to the diamond structure.

To mark the 30th anniversary of Engelbart's 1968 demo, in 1998 the Stanford Silicon Valley Archives and the Institute for the Future hosted Engelbart's Unfinished Revolution, a symposium at Stanford University's Memorial Auditorium, to honor Engelbart and his ideas.

Engelbart has served on the Advisory Boards of the University of Santa Clara Center for Science, Technology, and Society, Foresight Institute, Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility, The Technology Center of Silicon Valley, and The Hyperwords Company ( producer of the Firefox add-on Hyperwords.

Freeway opponents fear that upgrading Highway 84 will encourage more people to live in southern Alameda County ( where housing is more affordable ) and commute to jobs in the mid-Peninsula area ( where businesses wish to be located in order to be close to Silicon Valley ), thus increasing traffic in their neighborhoods to the south and west of U. S. 101.
