Extreme Blue: IBM's student demo

Extreme Blue

Each summer since 1999, IBM has run a 12-week internship called Extreme Blue. This allows selected groups of students to develop cutting-edge research projects, some of which eventually make their way into commercial IBM products. Others generate patent disclosures and submissions to the open-source community. Here's a selection of this year's European offerings, presented on 12 September at IBM's software laboratory in Hursley near Winchester.
