Viking Silver, Hoards and Containers: The Archaeological and Historical Context of Viking-Age Silver Coin Deposits in the Baltic c. 800–1050 (Routledge Archaeologies of the Viking World)

Routledge, 2019

It is widely accepted that the Viking Age (c. 800–1050) stimulated the development of long-distance, regional and local trade and exchange networks. The clearest archaeological evidence for these contacts is mainly in the form of silver artefacts predominantly found in hoards in Northern and Central Europe – the Baltic...

Building a Cisco Wireless LAN

Syngress Publishing, 2002

Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) technology is significantly more complex than cordless telephony; loss, coverage, and bandwidth requirements are much more stringent and the proliferation of wireless LANs in corporate environments has resulted in interesting security challenges. IEEE 802.11-based products offered by Cisco Systems have quickly become one of the...

Springer, 2012

The first part of this book deals with the coverage of landline and mobile phones in Europe. It presents an overview of the coverage and the use of phones as well as the resulting strategies for telephone surveys. The second part addresses the challenge of so-called “mobileâonly” households for survey research. Numerous...

Software Engineering for Self-Adaptive Systems (Lecture Notes in Computer Science / Programming and Software Engineering)

Springer, 2009

Although the self-adaptability of systems has been studied in a wide range of disciplines, from biology to robotics, only recently has the software engineering community recognized its key role in enabling the development of future software systems that are able to self-adapt to changes that may occur in the system, its requirements, or the...

Replication: Theory and Practice

Springer, 2010

Replication is a topic of interest in the distributed computing, distributed systems, and database communities. Although these communities have traditionally looked at replication from different viewpoints and with different goals (e.g., performance versus fault tolerance), recent developments have led to a convergence of these different...
