Cisco Access Control Security: AAA Administrative Services



As network infrastructures evolve, it is increasingly important that access to vital corporate resources is vigilantly monitored and controlled. The Cisco identity management solutions, including Cisco Secure Access Control Server (CSACS), address this requirement, enabling security, control, and administration of the growing population of users that connect to corporate networks. CSACS, an essential component of the Cisco Identity Based Networking Services (IBNS) architecture, extends access security by combining authentication, user and administrator access, and policy control from a centralized identity-networking framework. This allows greater flexibility and mobility, increased security, and user productivity gains.

Cisco Access Control Security provides you with the skills needed to configure authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) services on Cisco devices. Separated into three parts, this book presents hard-to-find configuration details of centralized identity networking solutions. Part I provides an overview of the AAA architecture, complete with discussions of configuring Cisco routers for AAA. Part II addresses enterprise AAA management with CSACS, including installation, configuration, and management details. Part III looks at service provider AAA management with Cisco Access Registrar.

Full of detailed overviews, diagrams, and step-by-step instructions for enabling essential access control solutions, Cisco Access Control Security is a practical tool that can help enforce assigned access policies and simplify user management.

Electricity Markets: Investment, Performance and Analysis


Electricity Markets: Investment, Performance and Analysis
Wiley | 1999-01-06 | ISBN:0471985074 | 294 pages | PDF | 4,2 Mb

The impact of deregulation on the theory and practice of investment appraisal is addressed in this comprehensive treatment of the restructuring of the electricity supply industry. Demonstrating that the classical approach to generation investment appraisal is no longer valid, a new approach is developed using three economic models to represent differing market conditions. Highlighting the impact on the organisation of the utilities and their suppliers, Electricity Markets offers essential advice for survival in the deregulated environment worldwide. Features include:

* Examination of the alternative market structures and their mechanisms
* Methods for investment appraisal and market simulation to support the assessment of market strategies by generators, distributors and suppliers
* Use of game theory to predict market behaviour and competitive interaction
* Coverage of the analytical and technical aspects of grid deregulation plus a look ahead to the long term productivity and structure of the industry
* Discussion of the regulatory framework and its limitations in improving efficiency and encouraging optimum levels of investment

This timely book will enlighten a broad audience ranging from utility managers and suppliers involved in deregulation to consultants and academics concerned with managing change.

BBC - In Search Of The Trojan War


BBC - In Search Of The Trojan War
English | Divx | 1440-1575 kbps | AC3 | 192kbps | Part~700MB

Homer wrote his epic, The Iliad, in 700 BC – 500 years after the Trojan Wars were supposed to have taken place. On what did he base his story? Where was Troy situated? Did Paris and Helen really exist? What was the significance of the famous wooden horse? Can archaeology help us to recreate a Bronze Age citadel which stood at the cross roads of the major trading routes of the day? Did the Trojan war ever happen,or was the city destroyed by natural causes?It’s fascinated poets, painters and Hollywood directors for over 2,500 years.

Join charismatic historian Michael Wood as he combs the cradle of civilization – from Greece to Turkey – and points beyond – Germany, Ireland and England – in search of archaeological evidence that may validate the fantastic battles immortalized in The Iliad. Over six hour-long programmes, Wood marshals the disparate strands of evidence to present as fully rounded a portrait as possible of both the historical and the legendary city of Troy, its central place in Western culture, and the Mycenaean Age itself. From Schliemann’s initial cavalier bulldozing of the mound at Hisarlik, to Homer’s epics, the Hittite Empire, and the role of slave women, Wood journeys back and forth across the Aegean and elsewhere to illuminate the dawn of Western literature, myth, and history. The trail is not easy to follow and Michael hits various dead ends and dramatic twists before he finds an answer to the question which has obsessed scholars for more than a century.

This six part series was originally broadcast in 1985 on BBC Two and won the Silver Plaque Award at the Chicago International Film Festival.

The Science and Engineering of Microelectronic Fabrication


Stephen A. Campbell “The Science and Engineering of Microelectronic Fabrication"
Oxford University Press, USA | 2001-02-15 | ISBN: 0195136055 | 624 pages | PDF | 22 Mb

Ideal for upper-level undergraduate or first-year graduate courses and as a handy reference for professionals, The Science and Engineering of Microelectronic Fabrication, Second Edition, provides a thorough and accessible introduction to the field of microfabrication. Revised and expanded in this second edition, the text covers all the basic unit processes used to fabricate integrated circuits, including photolithography, plasma and reactive ion etching, ion implantation, diffusion, oxidation, evaporation, vapor phase epitaxial growth, sputtering, and chemical vapor deposition. Advanced processing topics such as rapid thermal processing, next generation lithography, molecular beam epitaxy, and metal organic chemical vapor deposition are also presented. The physics and chemistry of each process is introduced along with descriptions of the equipment used for the manufacture of integrated circuits. The text also discusses the integration of these processes into common technologies such as CMOS, double poly bipolar, and GaAs MESFETs. Complexity/performance tradeoffs are evaluated along with a description of current state-of-the-art devices. Each chapter includes sample problems with solutions. The text makes use of the popular process simulation package SUPREM to provide more meaningful examples of the type of real-world dopant redistribution problems that microelectronic fabrication engineers must face. This new edition includes a chapter on microelectromechanical structures (MEMS), an exciting new area in microfabrication. The coverage of MEMS includes fundamentals of mechanics; stress in thin films; mechanical to electrical transduction; mechanics of common MEMS devices; bulk micromachining
etching techniques; bulk micromachining process flow; surface micromachining basics; surface micromachining process flow; MEMS actuators; and high aspect ratio microsystems technology (HARMST).

Concepts of Chemical Engineering 4 Chemists


Stefaan J. R. Simons “Concepts of Chemical Engineering 4 Chemists"
Royal Society of Chemistry | 2007-07-20 | ISBN: 0854049517 | 184 pages | PDF | 11,3 Mb

This book introduces the basic concepts of chemical engineering plant design and operation at a level understandable to graduate chemists and other scientists. It is aimed particularly at industrial chemists who find themselves working on chemical engineering-type unit operations. It is intended to be a "dip-in" reference, giving guidance on how to, for instance, design pumps, how to measure key process variables and how to use these to calculate the essential design parameters, such as heat and mass transfer coefficients, required for the design (and analysis) of typical unit operations (e.g. heat exchangers, distillation columns, reactors). Other issues, such as safety, project economic appraisal and process control are also covered. The book avoids derivations from first principles, simply providing the necessary equations and explaining and demonstrating their use.
