Abstract

As a technologist, working in the field of storage systems, and employed by a company that develops and sells a wide range of computer systems and components, I've learned that the biggest impediments to technology transfer---including better OS support for specific applications---are not technical, but economic. This paper summarizes some of these issues, and considers how best we might respond to them.
