Just some more good press on SGI's new "Webforce" servers and Java language: Silicon Graphics Inc. plans to use Sun's Java programming language to enable Web servers to reach out over the Internet and capture the color characteristics of users' computer monitors. With that data in hand, the server can then deliver pages optimized to deliver accurate color data to the end user. The capability, called Cosmo Color, is designed to work with Silicon Graphics' WebFORCE servers and Java-aware browsers. Silicon Graphics said that while color management has always been an important issue in print publishing, it has become a lost art on the Web. Cosmo Code will now bring this important capability to Web authors. Cosmo Color consists of two pieces: a monitor characterization component and a server-based component. A demonstration of this technology will be available on Silicon Graphics' own Web site, sgi.com , beginning next month. Cosmo Color is based on Colorific, from Sonnetech Ltd., in San Francisco. Colorific lets users create files that describe the unique color characteristics of the user's monitor. Cosmo Color adapts this capability to the on-the-fly demands on the Web.
