Why is ethics important to organizations? What are the characteristics of an ethical organization? How can we audit the ethics of an organization?What measures and activities stimulate the ethical development of organizations? This book addresses these questions.It is easier to say that ethics is necessary than to tell how to organize ethics. This book provides a fundamental and coherent vision on how ethics can be organized in a focused way. This study examines the assumptions for organizing ethics, the pitfalls and phases of such a process, the parts of an ethics audit and the great variety of measures.The methods and insights illustrated in this book are based partially on practical research. One of these methods, the Ethics Thermometer, was based on more than 150 interviews at various organizations. The Ethics Thermometer has been applied in a great variety of profit and not-for-profit organizations in order to measure an organization's perceived context, conduct and consequences.This book will be important to scholars in the field of business ethics, as well as to managers and practitioners. For scholars, this study provides general knowledge about auditing and developing the ethics of an organization. A summary is given of the criteria by which the ethical content of an organization can be measured. For managers and practitioners, this study provides concrete suggestions for safeguarding and improving ethics within their organizations.

Content types are a core concept used throughout the functionality and services offered in SharePoint 2007, and are designed to help users organize their SharePoint content in a more meaningful manner. A content type is a reusable collection of settings users apply to a certain category of content in order to manage the metadata and behaviors of a document or item type in a centralized, reusable way. This book teaches power users, administrators, and developers how to use SharePoint content types and walks them through the process of creating one in various sample scenarios. Topics covered include creating columns, associating document templates, customizing the document information panel, adding workflows, defining an information management policy, reusing content types within a site collection, and programmatically manipulating a content type.

DETAILS: The Cisco CSS 11500 Series, with the award-winning Cisco Web Network Services (WebNS), is specifically designed to provide robust transport and application (Layer 4-7) services for Internet and intranet data centers. The Cisco CSS 11500 Series Content Services Switch enables businesses to simultaneously reduce costs by optimizing data center resources and boosting productivity, as well as offering a superior online experience for customers, business partners, and employees. Through content fast switching and forwarding, the Cisco CSS 11500 Series switches improve utilization, responsiveness, availability, scalability, and security of Web sites, server farms, cache clusters, and firewall systems.In a typical deployment, the Cisco CSS 11500 Series intercepts a request from a client browser, characterizes the flow by reading Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) headers, selects a destination server based on resource availability, and forwards the flow. Because it quickly processes the entire HTTP header (full URL, cookie, and extensive resource verification information), the Cisco CSS 11500 Series identifies the user, what the user wants to do, and how best to service the user's request within a global Web infrastructure. The Cisco CSS 11500 Series provides a fully distributed architecture - all modules in the system contribute to the overall processing and memory needs for policy-based flow setup and flow forwarding. In this way, performance scales linearly as modules are added, and heavy traffic that hits one module can be balanced to others within a single system. Therefore, the Cisco CSS 11500 balances traffic not only within a data center but also across its own internal modules.This innovative architecture addresses the primary limitations of PC-and application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC)-based solutions. Unlike PC-based systems, the network processors of the Cisco CSS 11500 Series provide ample packet processing power and bandwidth, avoiding the bottlenecks of the PC bus and a single central processor. And unlike ASIC-based platforms, the powerful, yet adaptable processors of the Cisco CSS 11500 Series enable easy integration of new software features. The Cisco CSS 11500 Series can apply all its processing power to any port at any time, and it can grow with changing feature and scalability requirements. The system is designed to readily adapt to changing e-business needs - without complex and costly hardware upgrades.

The emerging idea of the semantic web is based on the maximum automation of the complete knowledge lifecycle processes: knowledge representation, acquisition, adaptation, reasoning, sharing and use. Text-based based browsers involve a costly information-retrieval process: descriptions are inherently subjective and usage is often confined to the specific application domain for which the descriptions were created. Automatic extracted audiovisual features are, in general, more objective, domain-independent and can be native to the audiovisual content. This book seeks to draw together in one concise volume the findings of leading researchers from around the globe. The focus, in particular, is on the MPEG-7 and MPEG-21 standards that seek to consolidate and render effective the infrastructure for the delivery and management of multimedia content.  Provides thorough coverage of all relevant topics, including structure identification in audiovisual documents, object-based video indexing, multimedia indexing and retrieval using natural language, speech and image processing methods Contains detailed advice on ontology representation and querying for realizing semantics-driven applications Includes cutting-edge information on multimedia content description in MPEG-7 and MPEG-21 Illustrates all theory with real-world case studies gleaned from state-of-the-art worldwide research. The contributors are pioneers in the fields of multimedia analysis and knowledge technologies This unified, comprehensive up-to-date resource will appeal to integrators, systems suppliers, managers and consultants in the area of knowledge management and information retrieval; particularly those concerned with the automation of the semantic web. The detailed, theory-based practical advice is also essential reading for postgraduates and researchers in these fields.

Content distribution networks (CDNs) are the most promising new techniques for coping with the huge and swiftly growing volume of Internet traffic. In essence, CDNs are groups of proxy-servers located at strategic points around the Internet and arranged so as to ensure that a download request can always be handled from the nearest server. In this, the first reference in the field, a recognized CDN pioneer describes the various technologies involved and explains how they came together to form a working system. With the help of case studies, he covers all the practical basics and provides invaluable implementation schemes.
