Bare Machine Computing (BMC):
      We have been working on the BMC paradigm, its research, feasibility and implementations over two decades at Towson University, Maryland, USA. Dr. Karne and Dr. Wijesinhai together supervised 27 doctoral dissertations and published over 70 papers. A bare machine is simply a computer with no operating system, hard disk, or any other things running in the machine other than a given domain-application suite. Anyone can use this machine without any ownership; it doesn't do any work until you boot the machine with your own flash drive. Your flash drive contains everything you need to run your application suite. Over a dozen complex applications were developed and have demonstrated the feasibility of this approach on bare PCs. When there is no operating system or kernel running in the machine, this is the most super-secure way to use a machine without requiring any firewalls. There is also no need to throwaway hardware or software as long as it is running and providing needed services. A given software runs on older as well as newer machines. It helps to reduce obsolescence and waste in computing and provides ultimate security by design.
