Abstract
The article discusses several interesting applications of Linux, in a wide variety of environments. These include an oceanographic lab running remote and inaccessible sensors, the development of a high-speed network on a shoestring budget, a publishing company that evolved from two people and a Unix box to 15 people on Linux workstations, the development of “soft real-time” control systems in Europe and South America, a military contractor building complex real-time embedded applications, and the use of a Beowulf cluster computer for supercomputing tasks such as weather simulation
