| | Open system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In computing, an open system (computing) is a computer operating system that provides interoperability, portability or both, particularly Unix systems. | | | In the computer sciences, An open system is a collection of interacting software, hardware, and human components | | | In the physical sciences, an open system (system theory) is a system where matter or energy can flow into and/or out of, in contrast to a closed system, where no energy or matter may enter or leave. |

| | The X Window System is a window system for computers with bitmap graphical displays created at MIT in the 1980s and now under the supervision of X.Org. | | | The X Window System was initially conceived in 1984, at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a joint project between their Laboratory for Computer Science and the Digital Equipment Corporation. | | | The initial impetus for the X Window System was MIT's Project Athena, which sought to provide easy access to computing resources for all students. |

| | Open Access |
| | Open access computing also provides great utility and convenience for students who need to conduct research in the Library, or who need to exchange information with faculty or other students via electronic mail, or who need to use computing resources in the context of their academic work. | | | This type of computing is a major component of academic computing, yet it has not been funded to date. | | | Usage of “instructional computing” resources (i.e., computing laboratories used in instruction) is rationed by various scheduling processes which restrict access to those enrolled in a few, specific, courses. |

| | open system - a Whatis.com definition |
| | In a computing context, an open system is an open source operating system, typically composed of coordinated modular components from a number of sources and not reliant upon any proprietary elements. | | | According to the Open Systems Joint Task Force, an open system "uses widely supported and consensus-based standards for its key interfaces, and has been subjected to successful validation and verification tests to ensure the openness of its key interfaces." Today, Linux is generally considered a prime example of an open system. | | | In a more general context, an open system is one that accepts input from external sources and produces output. |

| | Over the years, open systems computing platforms, which are basically networks of mini-computers running Unix, OpenVMS, Windows NT Server or several other server operating systems, have been proffered by vendors as a much cheaper substitute for mainframe computing platforms. | | | Without effective systems and applications management, “soft costs” for operating open systems computing environments over time often exceed the costs of traditional data center operations. | | | Systems management has been a part of VHA’s computing strategy since its inception, Rucker said. |
