This book describes the various technologies involved in the implementation of a HAN: high-speed Internet connections, indoor implementations, services, software, and management packages. It also reviews multimedia applications (which are increasingly the most important and complex aspects of most HANs) with a detailed description of IPTV technology. It highlights the main technologies used for HANs: information transmission by means of copper pairs, coaxial cables, fiber optics, and Wi-Fi radio systems, as well as the software systems necessary for the processing and management of these data communications. These technologies - examples of which include the well-known 802.11 family of standards, and less widespread applications such as the HomePlug powerline standard - are highly relevant to multimedia, remote healthcare, remote working, energy, and device management in the home. The book is written for engineers working in the field, or who are interested in high-speed communication technologies and their actual or potential use in the home or in the small - medium size enterprise (SME) commercial environment.Content: Chapter 1 Services Offered by Home Area Networks (pages 1-18): Jean?Gabriel Remy and Charlotte LetamendiaChapter 2 Receiving Television via Internet (pages 19-60): Jean?Gabriel Remy and Charlotte LetamendiaChapter 3 Household Internet Connections (pages 61-154): Jean?Gabriel Remy and Charlotte LetamendiaChapter 4 Home Area Network Technologies (pages 155-206): Jean?Gabriel Remy and Charlotte LetamendiaChapter 5 Software Structure used in Home Area Networks (pages 207-236): Jean?Gabriel Remy and Charlotte LetamendiaChapter 6 Software Structures in Use for Home Area Networks (pages 237-246): Jean?Gabriel Remy and Charlotte LetamendiaChapter 7 Service Platforms (pages 247-258): Jean?Gabriel Remy and Charlotte Letamendia  Jane Block, Claude Sorgeloos, "Homage to Adrienne Fontainas: Passionate Pilgrim for the Arts" English | 2013 | pages: 377 | ISBN: 1433120054 | PDF | 156,8 mb The twenty-two essays in this volume are contributed by Belgian, French, and American scholars to honor the memory and work of Adrienne Fontainas (1929-2010). The interdisciplinary scholarship this community of international scholars has produced is of lasting importance in underlining the significant role of Brussels from 1870 to 1914. A leading European scholar and bibliophile, Adrienne Fontainas served as Vice President of the International Association of Bibliophiles and membre d'honneur of the Royal Society of Bibliophiles and Iconophiles of Belgium. Her groundbreaking books on the Symbolist poet Stéphane Mallarmé and his Brussels' editor Edmond Deman (Edmond Deman éditeur : Art et édition au tournant du siècle and Edmond Deman : Publications de la librairie) are model studies of the book publishing trade in France and Belgium. |
