Network Infrastructure Consolidation With Host Integration Server 2004 | 2006-10-06 01:00:14 | Microsoft |
| Microsoft Host Integration Server (HIS) 2004 offers a number of technologies to integrate open Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and IBM Systems Network Architecture (SNA) networks. These technologies include a new Internet Protocol-Data Link Control (IP-DLC) Link Service in support of the industry-popular SNA over IP routing (Enterprise Extender). IP-DLC Link Service lets branch-deployed and centrally deployed HIS computers connect directly to z900 mainframes over high-speed IP networks so that a person no longer have to remotely administer branch cluster controllers, use expensive Data-Link SWitching (DLSW)-capable routers, or maintain costly Front-End Processors (FEPs). The presenter of this webcast shows how to use HIS 2004 to consolidate the network infrastructure, while supporting the same level of SNA-compatible applications and services. | |||

Microsoft Host Integration Server 2004 Host-Initiated Processing | 2006-10-06 01:00:14 | Microsoft |
| The webcast discusses Microsoft Host Integration Server 2004. It talks about innovative technologies, such as TI host-initiated processing. Host-initiated processing offers TCP/IP and SNA listeners that permit a computer running Microsoft Windows Server 2003 to function as peers to IBM mainframe and AS/400 computers. For example, CICS programmers can call in to Windows COM+ or .NET server components, just as if they were another CICS transaction program by using familiar programming models such as CICS Distributed Program Link (DPL). | |||

IDC Technical Brief: Enabling Technologies for Blade Management | 2006-11-02 08:47:54 | Hewlett-Packard |
| In June 2006, Hewlett-Packard (HP) announced its next-generation blade chassis, the BladeSystem c-Class, which addresses some of the total cost of ownership (TCO) issues facing today's data centers. Chief among these concerns is the need to rein in infrastructure management and administration costs. Toward that end, the company has introduced HP Insight Control, which automates key management functions and significantly reduces the time required to manage BladeSystem c-Class servers. Download this IDC Technical Brief to read more about HP Insight Control and to learn why manageability features are a critical consideration when evaluating and choosing your blade platform.
Note: Be sure to check out IDC's companion piece to this paper, Enabling Technologies for Power and Cooling, sponsored by HP. |

Monte-Carlo Localization for Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks | 2006-09-28 | Delft University of Technology |
| Localization is crucial to many applications in wireless sensor networks. This paper proposes a range-free anchor-based localization algorithm for mobile wireless sensor networks that builds upon the Monte Carlo Localization algorithm. The paper concentrates on improving the localization accuracy and efficiency by making better use of the information a sensor node gathers and by drawing the necessary location samples faster. To do so, the authors constrain the area from which samples are drawn by building a box that covers the region where anchors' radio ranges overlap. This box is the region of the deployment area where the sensor node is localized.

GFI WebMonitor for ISA Server: Real-Time HTTP/FTP Monitoring, Anti-Virus & Access Control | 2006-09-21 01:00:14 | GFI Software |
| Companies must exercise some control over the users' web browsing habits - not only to ensure productive use of the Internet but also to safeguard the users from adult sites and to ensure that downloads are virus free. The traditional full-blown web proxy filters are cumbersome to install/administer and expensive to buy, while log file analyzers are awkward to use and do not allow for real-time monitoring and blocking. GFI WebMonitor is a utility for Microsoft ISA Server that allows monitoring the sites users are browsing and what files they are downloading - in REAL TIME. |
