 Next Generation Intelligent Optical Networks: From Access to BackboneOptical networks have been in commercial deployment since the early 1980s as a result of advances in optical, photonic, and material technologies. Although the initial deployment was based on silica fiber with a single wavelength modulated at low data rates, it was quickly demonstrated that fiber can deliver much more bandwidth than any other... | | Building a Server with FreeBSD 7The most difficult aspect of building a server (to act as a file server, Web server, or mail server) is the initial software installation and configuration. Getting your hands on the software is one thing; getting it all to function is another thing entirely. For many people, the only option is to hire an expensive consultant. Building a Server... | | The Complete Idiot's Guide to Calculus, 2nd Edition
Cast off the curse of calculus!
Students no longer have anything to fear: The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Calculus, Second Edition, is here. Like its predecessor, it was created with an audience of students working toward a non-science related degree in mind. A non-intimidating,... |
