BOOK
Flow Control: Passive, Active, and Reactive Flow Management
Mohamed Gad-el-Hak
$73.03

About this product:
The ability to actively or passively manipulate a flow field to bring about a desired change is of immense technological and economical importance. This volume provides a thorough, up-to-date treatment of the basics of flow control and control practices that can be used to produce desired effects. The author explores the frontiers of flow control strategies, especially as applied to turbulent flows. Intended for engineering and physics students, researchers, and practitioners, Flow Control brings together in a single source a wealth of state-of-the-art information on this very active field.

BOOK
Digital Data Integrity: The Evolution from Passive Protection to Active Management
Oussama El-Hilali
$76.93

About this product:
How to plan your future strategy for efficient, cost-saving data management

Businesses have historically treated data protection as an afterthought, as simply making an occasional copy of data that could be used in the future. Today, this attitude is changing rapidly. The ever-increasing amount of data, along with the emphasis on continuous availability, necessitates changes in the approach to data integrity, which results in management and protection becoming much more closely aligned. Digital Data Integrity throws light on the data integrity landscape of the future. It provides the reader with a brief overview of the historical methods and subsequent evolution of data protection. The text shows how the whole subject of data integrity is changing and describes and positions many of the new, enhanced, more intelligent protection technologies and methods.

Digital Data Integrity:

• Takes a unique, forward look at data protection and management, highlighting the paradigm shift from simple backup and recovery to total data management.
• Details recent developments in compliance regulations in an accessible manner.
• Covers enhanced protection technologies such as advanced intelligent synthetic backups, data reduction methods, and data growth – online protection using continuous data protection.
• Explains data life cycle management and data storage, using management, quality of service products and tools to achieve better data management, intelligent allocation of storage, and compliance with regulations.
• Contains information on quality control, looking at SLA (Service Level Agreements), protection by business unit and billing/charge back.
• Unique insight into hot topics such as next generation bare metal recovery and true system provisioning.

This invaluable text will provide system administrators, and database administrators, as well as senior IT managers and decision makers with a thorough understanding of data management and protection.

With contributions from Ray Schafer and Paul Mayer.

BOOK
Advanced Groundwater Remediation: Active and Passive Technologies
C. McDonald
$166.73

About this product:
In the second half of the twentieth century, increasing efforts were made towards containing and cleaning contaminated groundwater. A number of techniques can be used to achieve such goals, traditionally either by treating or isolating the soil in situ, or by removing it for washing or disposal. However, such technologies tend to be accompanied by high energy consumption, and can lead to new environmental problems. Therefore, more efficient and economical techniques are needed to remediate contaminated soil and groundwater. Advanced groundwater remediation contains a selection of the most up-to-date research results on reactive barrier and pump-and-treat techniques, with the main focus on heavy metal removal. After dealing with general issues of groundwater remediation using active and passive processes, remediation engineering practice is discussed, with the emphasis on chromium remediation, innovative applications, engineering design and performance monitoring. There is particular focus on sorptive removal and on natural processes, including metals loading on sorbents, sorption mechanisms, monitored natural attenuation and phytoextraction. This book will contribute to improving groundwater quality: firstly, through enhanced efficiencies in research investment, by avoiding needless overlap/competition between approaches; secondly, by achieving a clearer recognition of situations for which a particular approach is best suited, and of the specialist capabilities essential to the informed delivery of each; and finally, by achieving recognition for the value and maturity of the whole field of groundwater remediation.
