whitepaper Iterative Water-Filling for Optimal Resource Allocation in OFDM Multiple-Access and Broadcast Channels2006-03-18 Stanford University
  A class of optimal resource allocation problems in linear Gaussian Multiple-access and Broadcast channels (MAC and BC) can be summarized as weighted sum power minimization problem. In this paper an iterative water-filling algorithm is proposed to solve this problem efficiently. It is shown that by formulating an explicit rate expression for MAC, though non-convex of power spectral densities, the KKT conditions demonstrate a strong water-filling flavor. By iteratively solving the KKT conditions, whereas in each iteration a slightly modified single-user Margin Adaptive Water-Filling(MAWF) algorithm is applied to update the dual variable in a greedy manner, the power spectral density of each user converges to the optimal solution very fast. Simulations verify zero duality gap and fast convergence.

whitepaper Integrating Mac OS and NetApp Storage: Integration, Configuration and Performance in Mixed File Sharing Environments2006-03-01 NetApp
  The inclusion of both the NFS and CIFS network file sharing protocols in Mac OS X dramatically simplifies the integration of Apple systems into multiprotocol file sharing environments that include Windows, UNIX, and other systems. To assess the network file sharing functionality and performance of OS X, Network Appliance undertook extensive integration testing of the OS X native NFS, native CIFS, and DAVE and ADmitMac, a third-party implementation suite of CIFS from Thursby Software Systems. Although native NFS and CIFS were found to have file size, file naming, and cross accessibility limitations that might be significant in some environments, they are adequate for many common applications.

whitepaper Apple Computer Case Study: Miramonte High School0000-00-00 Apple Computer
  In the San Francisco suburb of Orinda, California, students are approaching learning from a new direction. With several computer labs and a variety of classroom systems accessible to them, freshmen regularly work alongside seniors to polish the projects they must complete as part of their school's core curriculum. It's all part of a new technology model called Digital High School. With the installation of the new iMac computers in the labs, classrooms, and the library media center, everyone on campus was given access to video editing tools and software.

whitepaper Apple Computer Case Study: University of Wisconsin - Madison0000-00-00 Apple Computer
  During the early 1990s, the administrative desktops at the University of Wisconsin were mostly PC-based systems. A few years later, PeopleSoft software was adopted as an alternative to the university's legacy student records system. Since the PeopleSoft application lacked support for the Mac OS at the time, students who owned a Mac were unable to access their financial data and academic records easily. In response, UW's administration installed terminals in both of the university's student union buildings that allowed students to see Mac-based "screen scrapes" of the PeopleSoft student record application. But that didn't help UW staff members who felt more comfortable on the Mac platform.

whitepaper Running Mac OS X Tiger: The Terminal and Shell2005-12-01 O'Reilly Media
  The Terminal application (/Applications/Utilities) is the portal to the internals of Mac OS X. The user can use - and become proficient with - the operating system without ever touching the Terminal. But if one truly wants to dig deep and learn how to unleash the full potential of the underlying Unix capabilities of the system, the command line is essential. And once the user knows how to use it, the Terminal becomes a tool so valuable that many power users keep it in their Dock or in the Finder's Sidebar for quick access.   
whitepaper Mac OS X Tiger in a Nutshell: Using the Terminal2005-11-01 O'Reilly Media
  The Terminal application (/Applications/Utilities) is the gateway between the candy-coated Aqua graphical interface and the no-nonsense command-line interface that Darwin uses. This paper (as well as a lot of Apple documentation) tends to use the terms command line and Terminal interchangeably because, with Mac OS X, to get to the former one must go through the latter.   
whitepaper Understanding Networking Components and Devices for the Network+ Exam2005-07-29 Pearson Education
  To complete the examination of networking on a physical level, this paper looks at the network devices used to create networks. The paper covers the various networking devices used in modern networks with an eye toward passing the Network+ Exam and covers CompTIA-specified objectives for the "Media and Topologies" and "Protocols and Standards" sections of the Network+ exam.

whitepaper Learning Unix for Mac OS X Tiger: Taking Unix Online2005-06-03 O'Reilly Media
  A network lets computers communicate with each other, share files, send email, and much more. Unix systems have been networked for more than 25 years, and the Mac OS has had networking as an integral part of the system design from day one. In fact, AppleTalk was the first computer network that let computers connect directly together without needing a server in the middle. This paper introduces Unix networking: remotely accessing the Mac from other computers and copying files between computers. It also shows the user how the Terminal's "Connect to Server" feature can make common connections a breeze once the user has set them up the first time.

whitepaper Integrating Mac OS X With Active Directory2002-12-19 Apple Computer
  This white paper describes how one can use the information stored in Microsoft’s Active Directory to authenticate Macintosh users and provide file services and home directories for them on Mac OS X Server. To do so, users will have to take advantage of the Mac OS X directory services architecture.
