Software Networks. Virtualization, SDN, 5G, Security

Guy Pujolle

The goal of this book is to describe new concepts for Internet next generation. This architecture is based on virtual networking using Cloud and datacenters facilities. Main problems concern 1) the placement of virtual resources for opening a new network on the fly, and 2) the urbanisation of virtual resource implemented on physical network equipment. This architecture deals with mechanisms capable of controlling automatically the placement of all virtual resources within the physical network. In this book, we describe how to create and delete virtual networks on the fly. Indeed, the system is able to create any new network with any kind of resource (e.g., virtual switch, virtual routers, virtual LSRs, virtual optical path, virtual firewall, virtual SIP-based servers, virtual devices, virtual servers, virtual access points, and so on). We will show how this architecture is compatible with new advances in SDN (Software Defined Networking), new high-speed transport protocol like TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links) and LISP (Locator/Identifier Separation Protocol), NGN, IMS, Wi-Fi new generation, and 4G/5G networks. Finally, we introduce the Cloud of security and the virtualisation of secure elements (smartcard) that should definitely transform how to secure the Internet.

Funktionale Sicherheit von Maschinen und Anlagen. Umsetzung der Europäischen Maschinenrichtlinie in der Praxis

Patrick Gehlen

Mit der CE-Kennzeichnung erbringt der Hersteller von Maschinen und Anlagen den Nachweis, dass diese den Anforderungen notwendiger Normen und Vorschriften entspricht. Neben den aktuellen europaischen Sicherheitsnormen und der internationalen Harmonisierung geht der Autor speziell auf die neue Maschinenrichtlinie ein, die seit Ende 2009 gultig ist. Erganzungen zur praktischen Anwendung der Sicherheits-Grundnorm IEC 61508 werden praxisnah erlautert. So werden Begriffe und Verfahren, wie z. B. Risikoanalyse, Risikobeurteilung und Validierung mit entsprechenden neuen Berechnungsmethoden durch praktische Beispiele vermittelt. Der Autor beschreibt aus Sicht des Maschinenherstellers, wie die Erfordernisse zur funktionalen Sicherheit in den Gesamtprozess der Anforderungen zur Maschinensicherheit integriert werden und wie die ersten praktischen Erfahrungen damit sind. Entwickler, Ingenieure und Hersteller von Maschinen erhalten Hilfestellung zur Gestaltung der Maschinensicherheit bei Entwurf, Planung, Projektierung, Realisierung und Inbetriebnahme sowie bei der Konzeption von sicheren Steuerungsablaufen. Sicherheitsbeauftragte bekommen einen Einblick in Normen und Referenzen mit wichtigen Erlauterungen. Aktuelle, praxisnahe Anwendungen mit Sicherheitsprodukten, Berechnungsbeispiele, FAQs und Checklisten zum Einhalten der Maschinenrichtlinie helfen beim Erstellen von sicherheitsrelevanten Losungen und bringen dem Anwender den Begriff der funktionalen Sicherheit auf konkrete Art und Weise naher.

Green Corrosion Inhibitors. Theory and Practice

V. S. Sastri

A book to cover developments in corrosion inhibitors is long overdue. This has been addressed by Dr Sastri in a book which presents fundamental aspects of corrosion inhibition, historical developments and the industrial applications of inhibitors. The book deals with the electrochemical principles and chemical aspects of corrosion inhibition, such as stability of metal complexes, the Hammett equation, hard and soft acid and base principle, quantum chemical aspects and Hansch' s model and also with the various surface analysis techniques, e.g. XPS, Auger, SIMS and Raman spectroscopy, that are used in industry for corrosion inhibition. The applications of corrosion inhibition are wide ranging. Examples given in this book include: oil and gas wells, petrochemical plants, steel reinforced cement, water cooling systems, and many more. The final chapters discuss economic and environmental considerations which are now of prime importance. The book is written for researchers in academia and industry, practicing corrosion engineers and students of materials science, engineering and applied chemistry.

Understanding Solids. The Science of Materials

Richard J. D. Tilley

The second edition of a modern introduction to the chemistry and physics of solids. This textbook takes a unique integrated approach designed to appeal to both science and engineering students. Review of 1st edition “an extremely wide-ranging, useful book that is accessible to anyone with a firm grasp of high school science…this is an outstanding and affordable resource for the lifelong learner or current student.” Choice, 2005 The book provides an introduction to the chemistry and physics of solids that acts as a foundation to courses in materials science, engineering, chemistry, and physics. It is equally accessible to both engineers and scientists, through its more scientific approach, whilst still covering the material essential to engineers. This edition contains new sections on the use of computing methods to solve materials problems and has been thoroughly updated to include the many developments and advances made in the past 10 years, e.g. batteries, solar cells, lighting technology, lasers, graphene and graphene electronics, carbon nanotubes, and the Fukashima nuclear disaster. The book is carefully structured into self-contained bite-sized chapters to enhance student understanding and questions have been designed to reinforce the concepts presented. The supplementary website includes Powerpoint slides and a host of additional problems and solutions.

Renewable Polymers. Synthesis, Processing, and Technology

Vikas Mittal

Presents the synthesis, technology and processing details of a large range of polymers derived from renewable resources It has been a long-term desire to replace polymers from fossil fuels with the more environmentally friendly polymers generated from renewable resources. Now, with the recent advancements in synthesis technologies and the finding of new functional monomers, research in this field has shown strong potential in generating better property polymers from renewable resources. A text describing these advances in synthesis, processing, and technology of such polymers not only provides the state-of-the-art information to researchers, but also acts to stimulate research in this direction. The contents are based on a wide range of functional monomers and the contributions are written by eminent researchers. Specifically Renewable Polymers: Demonstrates the design, synthesis, properties and applications of plant oil-based polymers Presents an elaborate review of acid mediated polymerization techniques for the generation of green polymers Details the production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) from olive oil based wastewater Describes the use of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) techniques Reviews the renewable polymers derived from transgenic crop plants Provides an overview of a range of biomass-based polymers Concludes with the recent efforts and approaches exploiting the natural materials in developing drug delivery systems.

Fish Processing. Sustainability and New Opportunities

George Hall M.

This book seeks to address the challenges facing the international seafood industry via a two pronged approach: by offering the latest information on established technologies and introducing new ideas and technologies. An introductory chapter sets the tone for the book by presenting the background against which fish processing will exist in the near future. Chapter two looks at the environmental and sustainability issues relating to conventional fish processing, including processing efficiency and better use of the outputs currently considered wastes. The impact of mechanisation and computerisation on environmental sustainability is also addressed. Subsequent chapters examine the latest developments in established fish processing technologies such as canning, curing, freezing and chilling, with an emphasis on the environmental aspects of packaging and the process itself. In addition, quality and processing parameters for specific species, including new species, are described. The second part of the book gives authors the opportunity to introduce the potential technologies and applications of the future to a wider audience. These include fermented products and their acceptance by a wider audience; the utilisation of fish processing by-products as aquaculture feeds; and the use of by-products for bioactive compounds in biomedical, nutraceutical, cosmetic and other applications.
