IBM Hursley is a research and development laboratory belonging to International Business Machines in the hamlet of Hursley, Hampshire, England. Established in Hursley House, an 18th-century Queen Anne style mansion in 1958, the facility has been instrumental in the development of IBM’s software technologies since the 1950s.〔http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/04/10/geeks_guide_visits_ibm_hursley/〕 It is still the home of development for CICS MQ Series technology. Initially, IBM just used the House and its grounds. In 1963 it purchased 100 acres (405,000 m²) of land surrounding the house and has since erected a large modern office complex employing over 1500 people. The facility is host to the IBM Client Centre, which offers potential clients a secure environment where they can test company software and work with staff experts on best practices, proof of concept, and proof of technology.〔http://www-05.ibm.com/uk/clientcentre/hursley/〕 Hursley House itself, a Grade II * listed building, is still used as an Executive Briefing Centre. Its original oak-panelled library - restocked with technical books - retains its former use. The lower ground floor of the house is home to the IBM Hursley Museum, a computing museum that covers the history of IBM Hursley Park, IBM United Kingdom, and IBM Corporation.〔 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「IBM Hursley」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
