Computer Networks and Internets, Global Edition

Sinopsis del Libro

Appropriate for all introductory-to-intermediate courses in computer networking, the Internet, or Internet applications; students need no background in networking, operating systems, or advanced mathematics. Leading networking authority Douglas Comer presents a wide-ranging, self-contained tour of the concepts, principles, and technologies that enable today’s Internet to support applications ranging from web browsing to telephony and multimedia. Comer begins by illuminating the applications and facilities offered by today’s Internet. Next, he systematically introduces the underlying network technologies and protocols that make them possible. With these concepts and technologies established, he introduces several of the most important contemporary issues faced by network implementers and managers, including quality of service, Internet telephony, multimedia, network security, and network management. Comer has carefully designed this book to support both top-down and bottom-up teaching approaches. Students need no background in operating systems, and no sophisticated math: Comer relies throughout on figures, drawings, examples, and analogies, not mathematical proofs.

Business Intelligence Guidebook

Between the high-level concepts of business intelligence and the nitty-gritty instructions for using vendors’ tools lies the essential, yet poorly-understood layer of architecture, design and process. Without this knowledge, Big Data is belittled – projects flounder, are late and go over budget. Business Intelligence Guidebook: From Data Integration to Analytics shines a bright light on an often neglected topic, arming you with the knowledge you need to design rock-solid business intelligence and data integration processes. Practicing consultant and adjunct BI professor Rick Sherman takes ...

Sociabilidad en pantalla

Las nuevas tecnologías suponen nuevas maneras de interacción social. En la mayoría de estudios se sostiene que la interacción en los entornos virtuales es un fenómeno situado y localizado, volátil, cambiante, fluido e inestable. Sin embargo, en esta publicación se arguye que tal cosa no impide la producción de verdadera sociabilidad, dimensión que requiere cierta regularidad y permanencia. A través de un profundo estudio de caso, los autores ofrecen herramientas y conceptos para el análisis de la interacción en los entornos virtuales. Sus resultados se despliegan en tres planos...

Evaluation of Translation Technology

This collection of scholarly articles asks the question How useful is translation technology? Pointing to the need for a widely used and reliable way to test the efficiency of language translation programs, the presenters show that commercial tools such as translation memories and translation workbenches are popular, and their developers find them useful in terms of productivity, consistency, or quality. However, these claims are rarely proven using objective comparative studies, and this group describes several new statistical approaches to more rigorous evaluation methods.

Tierra quemada

En las próximas décadas nos enfrentaremos a un mundo poscapitalista: una sociedad inmersa en el ininterrumpido consumo tecnológico; una tierra chamuscada, llena de plástico y pesticidas; una naturaleza devastada por el expolio de los recursos naturales. En este ensayo tan pertinaz como demoledor, Jonathan Crary denuncia la manipulación a la que nos somete lo que él denomina el «complejo de internet», cuya presencia en todas las esferas de la vida hace que cualquier idea que contemple su marginación o ausencia resulte impensable. Pero, tal como argumenta Crary, la cultura y la...
