LAKELAND,
FL (September 16, 2005) - Today
companies are turning to Mike McMillan of Lakeland in their times
of desperation as disasters of all types are creating a need for
data recovery technology which plays an increasingly vital role
in businesses who rely on computers and servers for storing their
operating information.
McMillan, Director of System Integration for DSM, a Lakeland-based
company that specializes in systems integration and data recovery,
will present a talk at the University of South Florida Lakeland's
monthly IT Colloquium on Wednesday, September 21 at 12 p.m. to discuss
the need for these specific technologies today and where much of
the system integration technology is expected to go in the future.
McMillan recently worked on a project where data recovery technology
enabled him to recover 95 percent of a company's data lost during
the June 2005 fire that spread through Bartow's historic downtown
district. During the talk he will also share what he has learned
through 18 years of experience in the information technology field
that includes work with the US Navy's multimillion dollar Air Traffic
Control system, the AN/TPX-42V12.
In an effort to give Polk County students, educators, community
members and business leaders exposure to new technologies, the USF
Lakeland Department of Information Technology hosts a free monthly
IT colloquium showcasing some of the technological advancements
that are improving business organizations worldwide.
The colloquium, which began in 2002, features USF Lakeland faculty,
community members and visiting professors from other universities
and aims to expand the scope of traditional computer science education
into a broader set of disciplines more in tune with the needs of
modern society and business. It is scheduled for the third Wednesday
of each month at noon on the campus of USF Lakeland. Lunch is provided
for participants. For additional information, contact department
Chairman Art Karshmer, Ph.D. at (863) 667-7067 or via e-mail at
arthur@lakeland.usf.edu.
