What the f*ck is the Cloud, and how does it even work? Ah, The Cloud. It's such a useful bit of tech jargon isn't it? The kind that's casually thrown around in work meetings by bosses who (kind of) understand and maybe even at the nerdier type of dinner or drinks parties. People joke about the cloud while others take it for granted and some worry about this mysterious entity where all of our data is stored, accessible at the touch of a screen from anywhere on Earth. But what even is the cloud, and for that matter, where is the cloud? Join us on a journey from the very first iterations of the internet that we know and (sometimes) love, all the way through thorny issues of data collection and storage (weren't we all fooled by the 'ten years on' social media trend, even as we rely on cloud-stored photos of cats to cheer us up?) and discover the mysterious place where The Cloud ominously hovers.
Web services and Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) have become thriving areas of academic research, joint university/industry research projects, and novel IT products on the market. SOC is the computing paradigm that uses Web services as building blocks for the engineering of composite, distributed applications out of the reusable application logic encapsulated by Web services. Web services could be considered the best-known and most standardized technology in use today for distributed computing over the Internet. This book is the second installment of a two-book collection covering the state-of-the-art of both theoretical and practical aspects of Web services and SOC research and deployments. Advanced Web Services specifically focuses on advanced topics of Web services and SOC and covers topics including Web services transactions, security and trust, Web service management, real-world case studies, and novel perspectives and future directions. The editors present foundational topics in the first book of the collection, Web Services Foundations (Springer, 2013). Together, both books comprise approximately 1400 pages and are the result of an enormous community effort that involved more than 100 authors, comprising the world’s leading experts in this field.
The majority of the successful SOE operations in Europe took place in countries occupied by the Germans after the outbreak of war in 1939, Hitler’s forces being regarded as foreign invaders. In Czechoslovakia it was different. The country, which had large numbers of ethnic Germans living within its borders, had been occupied since 1938, allowing the Germans to establish a strong hold on the country which limited the opportunities for subversive action by resistance movements. Nevertheless, resist the Czechs did, despite the Germans conducting savage and indiscriminate reprisals. It was against this background that SOE attempted to infiltrate its agents into Czechoslovakia in 1941, their role being to help in co-ordinating and expanding the resistance movement and to establish communications with the Czech authorities in the UK. Successful actions were admittedly few before 1942 when one of the most successful SOE-backed operations resulted in the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich, the highest-ranking Nazi to be killed by any resistance group. The huge wave of reprisals against the civilian population which followed severely hampered SOE activities in the immediate aftermath. Another factor which limited SOE’s ability to infiltrate Czechoslovakia and to supply the resistance was the distance and difficulty experienced by the RAF in flying to the region. During the short nights of summer, no flights could be attempted. This changed in September 1943 when sorties were able to be conducted from Italy, and by 1944 the scale of operations increased both in frequency and scale. More than 300 Czechs were trained by SOE and, in conjunction with local resistance groups, those that managed to infiltrate back into their homeland, kept the occupying forces constantly on the alert, ensuring that Germany’s eastern flank was never entirely secure. This is the first full, official account of SOE in Czechoslovakia, compiled by SOE headquarters staff who had direct access to all the organisation’s records, many of which were destroyed after the war.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Workshop on Economics of Grids, Clouds, Systems, and Services, GECON 2012, held in Berlin, Germany, in November 2012. The 12 revised full papers presented together with 6 work in progress papers were carefully reviewed and selected from more than 36 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: market mechanisms, pricing and negotiation; resource allocation, scheduling and admission control; work in progress on tools and techniques for cost-efficient service selection; market modeling; trust; cloud computing in education; and work in progress on cloud adoption and business models.
This book constitutes the refereed conference proceedings of the First International Conference on Emerging Technologies in Computing, iCEtiC 2018, held in London, UK, in August 2018. The 26 revised full papers were reviewed and selected from more than 59 submissions and are organized in topical sections covering Cloud, IoT and distributed computing, software engineering, communications engineering and vehicular technology, AI, expert systems and big data analytics, Web information systems and applications, security, database system, economics and business engineering, mLearning and eLearning.
Dieses Wörterbuch dient zur Erleichterung der Arbeit für den Personenkreis, der mit englischen bzw. deutschen Fachausdrücken aus dem Bereich der KFZ-Technik konfrontiert wird. Falls nötig, werden zu den einzelnen Begriffen Hintergrundinformationen, Beispiele sowie umgangssprachliche Hinweise geliefert. Als zusätzliche Informationsebene sind nach Gruppen aufgeteilte schematische Darstellungen integriert, womit die Terminologie typischer Systeme erfasst und visualisiert ist. Bei dem vorliegenden Nachschlagewerk mit seinen circa 40.000 Stichworteintragungen handelt es sich nicht um ein Wörterbuch im üblichen Sinne, sondern um ein weit darüberhinausgehendes lexikonähnliches Fachwörterbuch. The purpose of this dictionary is to facilitate the work of persons who are confronted with English or German technical terms from the field of automotive engineering. In cases where it is necessary, background information, examples and colloquial references are provided for the individual terms. Additionally, this book includes information on schematic representations and divides them into groups, which means that it covers and visualizes terminology of typical systems. This reference work, with its approximately 40,000 keyword entries, is not a dictionary in the usual sense, but rather a technical dictionary that goes far beyond the scope of a lexicon.
