Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system, comprising: a first server computing device configured to store various application data relating to the system, and control a first plurality of modules to simultaneously establish multiple logically separate and secure networks within a self-supported computing environment; a second server computing device configured to control a second plurality of modules to perform out-of-band management of the system; and a third server computing device configured to control a third plurality of modules to control inbound and outbound data traffic of the logically separate and secure networks. The system is scalable by at least adding additional one or more first server computing devices to host additional application data within the self-supported computing environment’s secure configuration and logical separation of networks while maintaining the second and third server computing devices.

Abstract: An input apparatus for use with a computer, including a housing having a top aperture and a bottom aperture, a spherical member supported in the housing so that a portion thereof protrudes through the top and bottom apertures, and encoding means for transforming the motion of the ball into computer compatible signals, wherein the input apparatus can be moved over a surface, so as to function as a mouse, or can be supported by its housing, with motive force applied to the portion of the spherical member protruding from the top aperture, so as to function as a trackball.
