This book provides an overview of and essential insights on invasive computing. Pursuing a comprehensive approach, it addresses proper concepts, invasive language constructs, and the principles of invasive hardware. The main focus is on the important topic of how to map task-parallel applications to future multi-core architectures including 1,000 or more processor units. A special focus today is the question of how applications can be mapped onto such architectures while not only taking into account functional correctness, but also non-functional execution properties such as execution times and security properties. The book provides extensive experimental evaluations, investigating the benefits of applying invasive computing and hybrid application mapping to give guarantees on non-functional properties such as timing, energy, and security. The techniques in this book are presented in a step-by-step manner, supported by examples and figures. All proposed ideas for providing guarantees on performance, energy consumption, and security are enabled by using the concept of invasive computing and the exclusive usage of resources.

Focusing on material and social forms of infrastructure, this edited collection draws on rich empirical details from cities across the global North and South. The book asks the reader to think through the different ways in which infrastructure comes to be present in cities and its co-constitutive relationships with urban inhabitants and wider processes of urbanisation. Considering the climate emergency, economic transformation, public health crises, and racialized inequality, the book argues that paying attention to infrastructures' past, present and future allows us to understand and respond to the current urban condition.

Lord Drustan Chase is being haunted by nightmares of his lands dying. The demons in his nightmares will prevail unless he sends his seventeen year old daughter Marissa out on a journey. She is to find the one whom she was betrothed to many years ago and return back home to Aberdeen with him.

Diplomarbeit aus dem Jahr 2009 im Fachbereich Informatik - Wirtschaftsinformatik, Note: 1,0, FOM Essen, Hochschule fur Oekonomie & Management gemeinnutzige GmbH, Hochschulleitung Essen fruher Fachhochschule, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: This diploma thesis deals with high availibility specially on open source software. A short brief explained why using open source software. Availibilty and other operating figures will be defined. Measureplans to solve this problem were made by German Bundesamt fuer Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik and the IT infrastructure library. DRBD and iSCSI were used to realize a small prized storage attached network. Different kind of database clusters using MySQL. Heartbeat and Linux Virtual Server are needed for high availibility and loadbalancing. Some examples shows how to reach high availibility on low costs with open source software.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich Informatik - Internet, neue Technologien, Note: 1,0, FOM Essen, Hochschule fur Oekonomie & Management gemeinnutzige GmbH, Hochschulleitung Essen fruher Fachhochschule, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit dem neuen Reisepass mit integrierten RFID-Chip zur drahtlosen Kommunikation. Nach Grundlagen zur Biometrie werden die Besonderheiten der RFID-Kodierungen aufgezeigt. Anschliessend werden diese Besonderheiten aus datenschutzrechtlicher Sicht betrachtet. Abschliessend wird die Einfuhrung des neuen Reisepasses kritisch bewertet.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich Informatik - Allgemeines, Note: 1,0, FOM Essen, Hochschule fur Oekonomie & Management gemeinnutzige GmbH, Hochschulleitung Essen fruher Fachhochschule, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In dieser Arbeit wird Nagios als Network Monitoring Service eingesetzt. Es werden neben grundsatzlichen Themen der Netzwerkuberwachung Besonderheiten einer Notruf- und Serviceleitstelle dargestellt. Die Arbeit orientiert sich an der Praxis und wird erganzt durch eine Beispielkonfiguration. Zum Abschluss wird ein Ausblick fur weitere Konfigurationsmoglichkeiten, wie Hochverfugbarkeit oder grafischen Visualisierung, gegeben
