Encryption in a Windows Environment: EFS File, 802.1x Wireless, IPSec Transport, and S/MIME Exchange, Digital Shortcut
With the current business, government, and institutional focus on security, organizations are scrambling to make their networks more secure. Although encryption is nothing new to Windows, recent advances in Microsoft® Windows 2003 and Microsoft® Windows XP have drastically simplified the support of encryption technologies in Windows environments. Delivered in Adobe PDF format for quick and easy access, Encryption in a Windows Environment: EFS File, 802.1x Wireless, IPSec Transport, and S/MIME Exchange, 1/e covers the installation and operation of EFS file encryption, IPSec communications encryption, 802.1x wireless encryption, L2TP mobile encryption, as well as the auto-enrollment of certificates that drastically simplifies the administration of encrypted communications. The encryption technologies addressed in this digital Short Cut are included in all copies of Microsoft® Windows 2003 and Microsoft® Windows XP.

The Business Case for Enterprise Class Wireless LANs May 2006
A comprehensive guide to analyzing the business rationale for WLANs
Evaluate the business rationale behind the deployment of WLANs, including return on investment (ROI), net present value, payback period, and total cost of ownership
Develop a robust execution plan to deploy and operate the WLAN
Understand the high-level technical issues of deploying and managing your WLAN from a business decision-maker #161;¯s perspective
Maximize the positive impact of supplementary and complementary services such as voice, video, and guest WLAN access
Identify potential security threats and develop strategies to mitigate attacks
Learn methodological and technical best practices from WLAN deployment case studies featuring real-world, enterprise-class businesses and institutions
Gather information easily by referring to quick reference sheets and appendixes covering an antenna overview, a high-level sample project plan, checklists, and flowcharts
Businesses today are increasingly adopting wireless LANs (WLANs) as a primary data transport mechanism. To determine when and how to effectively deploy WLANs, business managers, project managers, and IT executives need a clear, holistic evaluation of the business benefits and risks behind this complex technology solution.
The Business Case for Enterprise-Class Wireless LANs helps you make the right decisions by explaining the business value and cost of investing in a WLAN #161; #170;from security and architecture to deployment and application. Using a lifecycle perspective, this guide covers the value proposition, cost justification, and alignment of security, design, and operational components within the business.
Written in an approachable style, The Business Case for Enterprise-Class Wireless LANs provides a baseline analysis of WLAN technologies for a large-scale deployment and includes concise real-world case studies with checklists and flowcharts that you can adapt for your needs. By recognizing the obstacles and advantages of implementing a WLAN from a strategic and justified business perspective, you can apply the economic benefits to your organization and ensure a timely and efficient deployment of your organization #161;¯s WLAN.
This volume is in the Network Business Series offered by Cisco Press®. Books in this series provide IT executives, decision makers, and networking professionals with pertinent information about today #161;¯s most important technologies and business strategies. |

Resource Allocation and Cross Layer Control in Wireless Networks Apr 2006
Resource Allocation and Cross Layer Control in Wireless Networks presents abstract models that capture the cross layer interaction from the physical to transport layer in wireless network architectures including cellular, ad-hoc and sensor networks as well as hybrid wireless-wireline. The emphasis in the presentation is on describing the models and the algorithms with application examples that illustrate the range of possible applications. Representative cases are analyzed in full detail to illustrate the applicability of the analysis techniques, while in other cases the results are described without proofs and references to the literature are provided. |

Wireless Communications over MIMO Channels Sep 2006
Wireless Communications over MIMO Channels: Applications to CDMA and Multiple Antenna Systems covers both, state-of-the-art channel coding concepts and CDMA and multiple antenna systems, rarely found in other books on the subject.
Furthermore, an information theoretical analysis of CDMA and SDMA systems illuminate ultimate limits and demonstrates the high potential of these concepts. Besides spatial multiplexing, the use of multiple transmit antennas in order to increase the link reliability by diversity concepts (space-time coding) is described. Another focus is the application of error control coding in mobile radio communications
Accompanying appendices include: basic derivations, tables of frequently used channel models, chain rules for entropy and information, data processing theorem, basics of linear algebra, Householder reflection and Givens rotation, and the LLL algorithm for lattice reduction. |

Mobile Wireless and Sensor Networks March 2006
This publication represents the best thinking and solutions to a myriad of contemporary issues in wireless networks. Coverage includes wireless LANs, multihop wireless networks, and sensor networks. Readers are provided with insightful guidance in tackling such issues as architecture, protocols, modeling, analysis, and solutions. The book also highlights economic issues, market trends, emerging, cutting-edge applications, and new paradigms, such as middleware for RFID, smart home design, and on-demand business in the context of pervasive computing.
Mobile, Wireless, and Sensor Networks is divided into three distinct parts:
* Recent Advances in Wireless LANs and Multihop Wireless Networks
* Recent Advances and Research in Sensor Networks
* Middleware, Applications, and New Paradigms
In developing this collected work, the editors have emphasized two objectives:
* Helping readers bridge the gap and understand the relationship between practice and theory
* Helping readers bridge the gap and understand the relationships and common links among different types of wireless networks
Chapters are written by an international team of researchers and practitioners who are experts and trendsetters in their fields. Contributions represent both industry and academia, including IBM, National University of Singapore, Panasonic, Intel, and Seoul National University.
Students, researchers, and practitioners who need to stay abreast of new research and take advantage of the latest techniques in wireless communications will find this publication indispensable. Mobile, Wireless, and Sensor Networks provides a clear sense of where the industry is now, what challenges it faces, and where it is heading. |
