- Neu Delhi (dpa) - Alt-Bundespräsident Richard von Weizsäcker hat Kritik an der US-Regierung und dem Angriff gegen den Irak geübt. Der Irak-Krieg habe «terroristische Aktivitäten nicht eliminiert, sondern an vielen Orten eher verstärkt», sagte von Weizsäcker am Samstag laut Redetext bei einem Kongress zu «Frieden und Gewaltlosigkeit» in der indischen ... |

- Building operational and management requirements into an enterprise solution is too often an afterthought. How can an enterprise's software and infrastructure architects ensure that solutions built in the enterprise implement code that can be managed? This WebCast will focus on enterprise best practices for building community and governance around vertical and horizontal application blocks and services to provide the right level of operations and maintenance without over-burdening the development projects. |

- The OLAP features in SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services are extraordinarily powerful, and they're going to get even better in Yukon. Until now, from .NET, only options for creating OLAP front-ends were ADO MD - the original COM API for OLAP - and XML For Analysis (XML/A), a Web Service interface that returns data in raw XML form. But a new option has appeared: ADO MD. |

- With the ever-increasing demand for cost-effective compute power, High Performance Computing (HPC) clusters, based on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) applications versus proprietary systems, have rapidly advanced to the forefront of computational science and engineering. Choosing the right computing architecture for HPC solutions can be a daunting task as organizations balance pure performance and availability requirements with budgetary and resource considerations to deliver a maximum return-on-investment. This paper specifically addresses how HPC solutions powered by Intel and Dell offer the best choice for science and engineering communities and businesses with computationally-intensive requirements. |

- The need for the most powerful computing systems available grows as groups work from numerous geographic locations. In the past, accessing large amounts of data remotely was far too slow - especially for scientists and researchers logging on remotely and competing with researchers worldwide to get connected. This case study examines how a high performance cluster of Intel(r) Xeon(tm) processor MP-based systems from Dell Computer enabled UK-based researchers to benefit from an eight-fold increase in processor speeds with easy maintenance and support. This increase in performance allowed the researchers to conduct multiple high-speed analyses of data from the US in hours rather than weeks. |

- As computational needs continue to grow in complexity and larger data sets require analysis, customers are requiring higher levels of computational capability at much lower price points. High Performance Computing Clustering (HPCC) offers a solution that not only provides a powerful implementation of computing, but is also very cost effective when compared with the traditional method of using specialty computers designed for parallel computing.

- Most emerging radio technologies for Wireless Personal Area Networks such as the Bluetooth protocol are designed to operate in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. Since both Bluetooth and IEEE 802.11 devices use the same frequency band and may likely come together in a laptop or may be close together at a desktop, interference may lead to significant performance degradation. The main goal of this paper is to describe the interference problem and to highlight a coexistence framework for these technologies to operate in a proximal environment. |

- Our primary objective in the further development of wireless networks of any form today is to narrow, if not eliminate, the behavioral and performance differences that distinguishes wireless from wireline. So, while it is most certainly true that a wireless LAN is, in fact, a local-area network and therefore at least in theory capable of handling any mission suitable for a LAN, the "wireless" part of "wireless LAN" often gets in the way. The primary reasons for this are the vagaries of the radio channel, that property of the universe that allows data to move through the air in much the same fashion as it travels through wire. This White Paper will look at what can be done at the physical (radio) later to improve the performance of wireless-LAN systems. |

- "This white paper presents a study of clock drift in computers and other networked devices. The paper starts with an introduction to clock architecture, distribution of standard time, drift in oscillators, and efforts to improve clock precision. This is followed by an equation for clock drift that shows the how the calculation for modeling drift in networks was established. Finally, statistical projections are presented along with results and conclusions about the significance of network clock error, even in relatively small networks. |

- As we accelerate into the New World of VoIP we assume we can leave some of the trappings of wireline telecom behind, such as the need for synchronization. After all, an IP network is about as asynchronous as it gets. While this may be true in some respects, precise time and synchronization continue to permeate many areas of IP telephony operations. Customer expectations of voice quality and service reliability remain unchanged, and as a result, the need for precise time remains unchanged though it manifests itself in different ways. The bottom line is that trying to design a VoIP network without considering network synchronization is probably the shortest path to realizing that you need it. |

- Web application developers are very concerned about security, and rightfully so. The nature of the web - global access, ease of connectivity and interaction, and lack of true client control - creates an environment where application misuse or abuse can flourish. This white paper explains how ColdFusion MX 6.1 provides powerful, yet easy to implement data encryption, user authentication, and access control features that address the most common web application security risks. |

- This paper describes the Netilla Security Platform SSL VPN, how it operates, and the benefits it provides. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) are quickly gaining popularity as serious contenders in the remote-access marketplace. Analysts predict that products based on SSL VPN technology will rival - or even replace - IP Security Protocol (IPSec) VPNs as remote-access solutions. |

- Unlike other SSL VPN products that merely allow remote users to connect to their enterprise networks, the Netilla dynaTRUST O/S offers a policy-based approach that governs access to applications by all authorized users - remote and internal, trusted partner or employee. By simultaneously authenticating users, enforcing policy and ensuring client integrity, Netilla dynaTRUST will speed the evolution from todays static access control to the dynamic provisioning of trust-based access to network resources. This white paper envisions the next stages of secure application access management, and introduces the Netilla dynaTRUST O/S as the policy enforcement point (PEP) solution needed in today's distributed access environment. |

- This paper talks about SSL VPNs, which offer a low cost, easy to deploy and overall superior experience to other types of remote access. SSL VPN technology harnesses the flexibility and ubiquity that the Internet offers with the security of traditional VPNs. This gives the perfect balance between security and ease of use. SSL VPNs will help the organization meet its business, security and information technology goals of securely opening up systems to remote users at an attractive level of investment. |
