Advanced Techniques in Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining

Paperback: 272 pages
Publisher: Springer; 1 edition (June 14, 2005)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 1852338679
ISBN-13: 978-1852338671
Format: PDF
Description: Information and knowledge in databases is usually hidden & our ability to extract it is limited. The development of techniques to assist in knowledge discovery & validation is becoming increasingly important due to the explosion in internet use & development of powerful sensors resulting in routine generation of terabytes of data needing to be analyzed in order to extract useful knowledge & information. Knowledge, as well as data, plays an important role in every aspect of scientific research. The internet for example provides access to near infinite information in an environment of zero wisdom. Discovering & validating this useful knowledge impacts on the ways businesses operate and the way people work. In presenting the latest and most advanced tools and techniques available for data and web mining strategies, Advanced Techniques in Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining will be welcomed by researchers, engineers and developers involved in knowledge and information management.

Integrating ISA Server 2006 with Microsoft Exchange 2007

ISBN: 9781597492751 - 1597492752
Paperback: 376 pages
Data: June 3, 2008
Format: PDF
Description: This book is a convenient, targeted, single-source guide to integrating Microsoft's ISA Server with Exchange 2007 SP1. Unlike longwinded "comprehensive resources" it doesn't waste time re-hashing general information on the architectures and purposes of ISA and Exchange for raw beginners. Instead, its pragmatic purpose is to smooth the path of the busy administrator who is under pressure to get the integration done quickly, and done right, the first time. It features "break-out sessions" for issues that require in-depth discussion, "tips and tricks" sections that hone in on and demystify trouble spots, and "FAQs" alphabetized by topic that act as a quick-reference for readers who just want a quick answer to a specific question.

Readers will learn how to:
*Create the protocol definitions and firewall policy to allow only authorized users to connect to your Exchange Server
*Configure SMTP Filtering and SMTP Message Screener
*Troubleshoot the SSL connection to your Exchange Server
*Take advantage of ISA 2006's integrated Exchange 2007 support
*Enable forms-based authentication for Outlook Web Access
*Leverage unified SSL, VPN, application-layer filtering and endpoint security
to optimize access for mobile devices
*Configure user-based settings to provide pre-authenticated access to specific Web applications
