This book is designed to cover three objectives. One, to provide a
comprehensive resource to individuals (including novice,
IT/Non-HP-UX administrators, HP-UX administrators) who intend to
take the Certified System Administrator for HP-UX certification
exam and pass it. Two, to provide a quick and valuable on-the-job
resource to HP-UX administrators, administrators of other UNIX
operating system software, IT managers, programmers, and DBAs
working in the HP-UX environment. Three, to provide an
easy-to-understand guide to novice and IT/non-HP-UX administrators
who intend to learn HP-UX from the beginning. This book contains 33
chapters. The book is organized in such a way that it helps its
audience understand concepts, implementation procedures, some basic
troubleshooting, command syntax, configuration files, and daemons
involved. There are three key areas: UNIX fundamentals, HP-UX
system administration, and HP-UX network administration. 1.UNIX
Fundamentals covers the basics of UNIX. Most information is not
specific to a particular UNIX flavor, but rather includes general
UNIX concepts, file manipulation and security techniques, shell and
awk programming, vi editor, basic commands, and other topics.
Chapters 01 through 06 and chapter 21 cover this area. Unlike many
other similar books, a chapter on shell scripting is presented
after covering HP-UX System Administration chapters. This is done
intentionally to provide readers with some practical examples based
on the knowledge they have gained from UNIX Fundamentals and HP-UX
System Administration chapters. 2.HP-UX System Administration
covers the HP-UX-specific system administration concepts and topics
including HP-UX installation methods; software and patch
management; user and group account administration; disk and device
file management; LVM and file system administration; swap space and
printer management; system startup and shutdown procedures; kernel
reconfiguration techniques; backup, restore, and system recovery
functions; job automation and process control; system logging and
performance monitoring; and so on. Chapters 07 through 20 cover
this area. 3.HP-UX Network Administration covers HP-UX network
administration concepts and topics such as OSI and TCP/IP models;
network hardware overview; LAN card administration; IP subnetting
and routing techniques; network troubleshooting tools; system
startup services; naming services such as DNS, NIS, and LDAP; File
sharing tools viz. NFS and AutoFS; Time synchronization using NTP;
internet services administration; BootP/TFTP services; system
security; and so on. Chapters 22 through 33 cover this area. The
beginning of each chapter highlights objectives covered. The end of
each chapter includes a summary as to what is learnt in the
chapter. Throughout the book tables, figures, screen shots, and
examples are given to explain concepts and tasks. The output
generated as a result of running commands is highlighted in light
grey background to differentiate it with surrounding text. The book
includes several appendices one of which contains more than 550
practice exam questions. Tables of commands, important files, and
service daemons are included in separate appendices.
The optimization of traffic management operations has become a
considerable challenge in today's global scope due to the
significant increase in the number of vehicles, traffic
congestions, and automobile accidents. Fortunately, there has been
substantial progress in the application of intelligent computing
devices to transportation processes. Vehicular ad-hoc networks
(VANETs) are a specific practice that merges the connectivity of
wireless technologies with smart vehicles. Despite its relevance,
empirical research is lacking on the developments being made in
VANETs and how certain intelligent technologies are being applied
within transportation systems. IoT and Cloud Computing Advancements
in Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks provides emerging research exploring
the theoretical and practical aspects of intelligent transportation
systems and analyzing the modern techniques that are being applied
to smart vehicles through cloud technology. Featuring coverage on a
broad range of topics such as health monitoring, node localization,
and fault tolerance, this book is ideally designed for network
designers, developers, analysists, IT specialists, computing
professionals, researchers, academics, and post-graduate students
seeking current research on emerging computing concepts and
developments in vehicular ad-hoc networks.
This story was totally fiction and the characters are fiction as
well. Some of the material used in this book was gleaned from
articles written about Osama Ben Laden; Afghanistan; the United
States Marine Corps; the Kennedy Assassination; the gas attack on
the Tokyo Subway system. A lot of the technical knowledge was taken
from magazine articles and articles on the Internet. A great
portion of the possible use of the computer for law enforcement was
part of the writer's imagination. It remains to be seen if a lot of
the technology mentioned in this story will come to fruition. The
advances of computer technology in the last few years have been so
astounding that it is hard to imagine what lies ahead for us. It
could become a golden age and one that can promote peace to the
world. It can be a boon to the Medical Profession as it already
has. We could be heading for a civilization where we don't have to
worry about crime or sickness or war. H G Wells wrote about time
travel. Even that is not as implausible as it once was. When the
writer was born, Space travel was talked of but no one thought that
there would ever be a modern Buck Rogers. Who ever imagined that we
would have six foot wide flat screen televisions broadcasting
events all over the world and from outer space. So the Technology
used by "Investicom" may not be so far fetched. Let's see.
Adolescence, Girlhood, and Media Migration: US Teens' Use of Social
Media to Negotiate Offline Struggles considers teens' social media
use as a lens through which to more clearly see American
adolescence, girlhood, and marginality in the twenty-first century.
Detailing a year-long ethnography following a racially, ethnically,
and economically diverse group of female, rural, teenaged
adolescents living in the Midwest region of the United States, this
book investigates how young women creatively call upon social media
in everyday attempts to address, mediate, and negotiate the
struggles they face in their offline lives as minors, females, and
ethnic and racial minorities. In tracing girls' appreciation and
use of social media to roots anchored well outside of the
individual, this book finds American girls' relationships with
social media to be far more culturally nuanced than adults
typically imagine. There are material reasons for US teens' social
media use explained by how we do girlhood, adolescence, family,
class, race, and technology. And, as this book argues, an unpacking
of these areas is essential to understanding adolescent girls'
social media use.
Modern society has become dependent on technology, allowing
personal information to be input and used across a variety of
personal and professional systems. From banking to medical records
to e-commerce, sensitive data has never before been at such a high
risk of misuse. As such, organizations now have a greater
responsibility than ever to ensure that their stakeholder data is
secured, leading to the increased need for cybersecurity
specialists and the development of more secure software and
systems. To avoid issues such as hacking and create a safer online
space, cybersecurity education is vital and not only for those
seeking to make a career out of cybersecurity, but also for the
general public who must become more aware of the information they
are sharing and how they are using it. It is crucial people learn
about cybersecurity in a comprehensive and accessible way in order
to use the skills to better protect all data. The Research
Anthology on Advancements in Cybersecurity Education discusses
innovative concepts, theories, and developments for not only
teaching cybersecurity, but also for driving awareness of efforts
that can be achieved to further secure sensitive data. Providing
information on a range of topics from cybersecurity education
requirements, cyberspace security talents training systems, and
insider threats, it is ideal for educators, IT developers,
education professionals, education administrators, researchers,
security analysts, systems engineers, software security engineers,
security professionals, policymakers, and students.
Although many developments surrounding the Internet campaign are
now considered to be standard fare, there were a number of new
developments in 2016. Drawing on original research conducted by
leading experts, The Internet and the 2016 Presidential Campaign
attempts to cover these developments in a comprehensive fashion.
How are campaigns making use of the Internet to organize and
mobilize their ground game? To communicate their message? The book
also examines how citizens made use of online sources to become
informed, follow campaigns, and participate. Contributions also
explore how the Internet affected developments in media reporting,
both traditional and non-traditional, about the campaign. What
other messages were available online, and what effects did these
messages have had on citizen's attitudes and vote choice? The book
examines these questions in an attempt to summarize the 2016 online
campaign.

Diversity in user queries makes it challenging for search engines
to effectively return a set of relevant results. Both user
intentions to search the web and types of queries are vastly
varied; consequently, horizontal and vertical search engines are
developed to answer user queries more efficiently. However, these
search engines present a variety of problems in web searching.
Result Page Generation for Web Searching: Emerging Research and
Opportunities is an essential reference publication that focuses on
taking advantages from text and web mining in order to address the
issues of recommendation and visualization in web searching.
