Sommario/riassunto

Preface The motivation behind this book was to provide students and future information engineers with a useful collection of Internet standards, technologies, and techniques that are derived from research projects for the management of distributed data. We wrote the book in a very exciting period of the Internet. The ubiquitous access of the Internet in daily life by all has allowed the emergence of new sorts of businesses, based on the staggering, and at times puzzling, amount of information on the Internet. Search engines, social networking, online advertising, and online commerce have been built on the aggregation and sharing of personal data. Carriers are closely cooperating with content providers to allow a deeper integration between their services and the underlying network, improving the quality of their customers' experience. Governments and public administrations have begun to simplify the way public data are accessed by opening their archives to citizens through the web. Although several academic courses are



offered that discuss data management and networking, few of them focus on the convergence of networking and software technologies for identifying, addressing, and managing distributed data. This book focuses on this convergence-- a result of a series of long processes in the history of the Internet, in which data management has been thought and rethought many times--

"Productions designed by Donald Oenslager": p. 147-167.

Sommario/riassunto

Donald Oenslager's working career spanned fifty years of the New York stage and during those years his influence extended across the country in the work of the many distinguished stage designers who had been his students at the Yale School of Drama. His autobiographical introduction to this book is, therefore, both a history of and a commentary on the theatre in New York from 1920 to the 1970s, and it admits us to the reflections of one of the most versatile artists who



worked at the center of that development. This is a designer's book, and Donald Oenslager chose his subjects with a designer's eye. Over thirty-five productions are discussed in the light of the problems of interpretation and realization that they posed to the set designer. More than ninety illustrations illuminate Oenslager's mastery of the principles of design and his ability to exploit the technical possibilities of his theatre.
