[et al.] ; Martin Walshaw, technical editor.Cisco AVVID and IP telephony :design & implementationRockland, Mass. :Syngress Pub.,c2001.xxv, 492 p. :ill. ;24 cm.Corporate demand for AVVID solutions is rapidly increasing - engineers will need this book Cisco AVVID (Architecture for Voice, Video and Integrated Data), the latest development from Cisco Systems, is redefining the way businesses communicate. AVVID allows businesses to transmit voice, data, and video over a single integrated architecture called a "multiservice" or "converged" network. Cisco AVVID Design & Implementation is designed to be a complete desk-reference for network administrators and engineers responsible for a complicated AVVID network. Covering history, protocols, hardware, servers, switches, bridges, routers, and discussions about implementation issues, realities of cost, requirements and network limitations. Engineers will learn how to design and build a comprehensive Cisco AVVID network infrastructure. Follows on from the successful Configuring Cisco AVVID Cisco engineers and other IT professionals will find this an indispensable guide when implementing AVVID Author is Systems Engineer at Cisco Unrivalled web support at solutions@syngress.com.Electronic reproduction.Amsterdam :Elsevier Science & Technology,2007.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Web browser.Title from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).Access may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions.Computer network architectures.Multimedia systems.Electronic books.localPadjen, Robert.authorhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut739064Walshaw, Martin.Original19289948309781928994831(OCoLC)50065661Referexhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9781928994831An electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information.b1365613224-02-2224-01-08991003254469707536C0TEFCicso AVVID and IP telephony1464018UNISALENTOle02924-01-08mm -engmau0004435nam 22007695 450 991076026870332120240312132844.03-031-40534-X10.1007/978-3-031-40534-1(MiAaPQ)EBC30826735(Au-PeEL)EBL30826735(DE-He213)978-3-031-40534-1(PPN)272915564(CKB)28552912100041(EXLCZ)992855291210004120231026d2024 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierEfficient Control and Spontaneous Transitions /by Miranda Louwerse1st ed. 2024.Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :Imprint: Springer,2024.1 online resource (123 pages)Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,2190-5061Print version: Louwerse, Miranda Efficient Control and Spontaneous Transitions Cham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023 9783031405334 Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: Theoretical Background -- Chapter 3: Information Thermodynamics of Transition Paths -- Chapter 4: Multidimensional Minimum-Work Protocols -- Chapter 5: Connections between Minimum-Work Protocols and Transition Paths -- Chapter 6 Conclusions.This thesis addresses deep questions that cut to the physical and informational essence of central chemical quantities such as transition paths and reaction mechanisms and proposes fundamental new connections between transition-path theory, linear-response theory, nonequilibrium thermodynamics, and information theory. The author investigates slow, energetically efficient driving protocols that drive a system between conformations corresponding to endpoints of a reaction, aiming to find connections between principles of efficient driving and the spontaneous transition mechanism in the absence of driving. First, an alternative perspective of transition-path theory is developed that unifies it with stochastic thermodynamics to describe flows of entropy, energy, and information during the reaction. This also provides an optimization criterion for selecting collective variables. Next, protocols are designed which invert the magnetization of a 3×3 Ising model with minimal energetic cost,and it is determined that using multiple control parameters allows the system to be driven along a fast-relaxing pathway between reaction endpoints. Finally, the author compares these protocols with the spontaneous transition mechanism for magnetization inversion in the same Ising model, finding that designed protocols capture general features of the spontaneous mechanism and energetics given the constraints on the control parameters. This work represents a major step forward in our understanding of rare events and provides a basis for investigating the connection between efficient protocols and spontaneous transition mechanisms which can be further probed in a wider variety of systems.Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,2190-5061ThermodynamicsBiophysicsBiomoleculesBiochemistryReaction mechanisms (Chemistry)Coding theoryInformation theoryCondensed matterThermodynamicsMolecular BiophysicsBiochemistryReaction MechanismsCoding and Information TheoryPhase Transitions and Multiphase SystemsThermodynamics.Biophysics.Biomolecules.Biochemistry.Reaction mechanisms (Chemistry)Coding theory.Information theory.Condensed matter.Thermodynamics.Molecular Biophysics.Biochemistry.Reaction Mechanisms.Coding and Information Theory.Phase Transitions and Multiphase Systems.547.2Louwerse Miranda1438303MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910760268703321Efficient Control and Spontaneous Transitions3599594UNINA
