referenceData centres are spaces where computer systems, physical network technology and associated components are housed, operated and monitored, and any industry or business that employs computer systems or networked systems at any scale will interact with data centres. Data centres are complex and expensive to build and operate, and successful project delivery requires a wide range of specialised knowledge and skills. This accessible reference lays out the requirements for creating these essential facilities.Data Centre Essentials is a comprehensive survey of the essential principles of data centre design, construction and operation. It is designed to provide those involved in a data centre project or providing professional service deliverables to the data centre industry but do not have a technical background or deep sector experience with the understanding required to participate in such projects. The non-technical language and thorough engagement with key considerations make it ideal for anyone looking to understand one of the pillars of a digital society.Data Centre Essentials readers will also find:An authorial team with decades of combined experience in engineering and construction consultancyDetailed information about every stage in the process, including securing investment and the building processWorking lexicon of key data centre terminologyData Centre Essentials isa must-own for contractors, engineers and construction project managers involved in data centre projects and will be invaluable for professionals such as lawyers, financial and insurance advisors, surveyors, engineers and architects who do not necessarily have deep domain experience but find themselves involved in or are interested in engaging in, data centre projects. 606 $aData centers 610 $aMechanical Engineering 610 $aTechnology & Engineering 615 0$aData centers. 676 $a005.74 700 $aFogarty$b Vincent$01670718 702 $aFlucker$b Sophia 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910830209803321 996 $aData centre essentials$94032763 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02590nam 22005535 450 001 9910972119503321 005 20250729123258.0 010 $a3-0348-7589-4 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-0348-7589-9 035 $a(CKB)3400000000101330 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000805720 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11422696 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000805720 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10836160 035 $a(PQKB)10689646 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-0348-7589-9 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3086525 035 $a(EXLCZ)993400000000101330 100 $a20121227d1999 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 12$aA Crash Course in Mathematica /$fby Stephan Kaufmann 205 $a1st ed. 1999. 210 1$aBasel :$cBirkhäuser Basel :$cImprint: Birkhäuser,$d1999. 215 $a1 online resource (200 p.) 300 $aIncludes index. 311 08$a3-7643-6127-1 327 $aA Short Tour -- Formula Entry -- Numerical Calculations -- Symbolic Mathematics -- Graphics -- Programming -- Some of the Most Important Functions -- 1: The Basics -- 1.1 The Structure of the Program -- 1.2 Online Documentation -- 1.3 Formulas -- 1.4 Simple Calculations -- 2: Graphics -- 2.1 Graphs of Functions of One Variable -- 2.2 Graphs of Functions of Two Variables -- 2.3 Parametric Plots -- 2.4 Tools from Standard Packages -- 2.5 Animations -- 2.6 Exporting to Other Programs -- 3: Lists and Graphics Programming -- 3.1 Lists -- 3.2 Calculating with Lists -- 3.3 Linear Algebra -- 3.4 Graphics Programming -- 3.5 Application: Animating a Mechanism -- 4: Introduction to Programming -- 4.1 Expressions -- 4.2 Patterns -- 4.3 Evaluation -- 4.4 Programming Tools -- 4.5 Further Information. 330 $a"A Crash Course in Mathematica" is a compact introduction to the program Mathematica, which is widely used in mathematics, as well as in the natural and engineering sciences. 606 $aComputer science$xMathematics 606 $aComputer software 606 $aMathematics of Computing 606 $aMathematical Software 615 0$aComputer science$xMathematics. 615 0$aComputer software. 615 14$aMathematics of Computing. 615 24$aMathematical Software. 676 $a510/.285/53 700 $aKaufmann$b Stephan$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$042605 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910972119503321 996 $aA Crash Course in Mathematica$94411913 997 $aUNINA
