This work will show the fundamentals of structured cabling, the physical media used for the installation of Closed Circuit Television systems. In this particular work, it will be used for the installation of a Small Hydroelectric Power Station located between the towns of Pinhal da Serra and Barracão, in the north of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Structured cabling is already commonly used in offices and small businesses. Its aim is to establish a standard installation, regardless of manufacturer, and to offer the user the possibility of expansion as well as ease of physical changes without loss of speed and data, Based on this concept, we can use structured cabling for the installation of a Closed Circuit Television system, as it will offer the user security for the data being transmitted, in this case images, with the possibility of adding new points, i.e. cameras, without the need for new cabling. Twisted pair metal cables and fibre optics will be used to connect the components, both of which achieve the same objectives.

La sicurezza del livello due è molto importante per l'intera rete locale. Le LAN o le VLAN hanno problemi quando gli aggressori riescono a compromettere uno degli host della stessa VLAN o LAN. Allora tutti gli host della stessa rete sono a rischio. A volte il livello due dell'OSI presenta problemi di sicurezza, soprattutto in ambiente DMZ, perché quest'ultimo protegge solo il livello tre, filtrando il traffico in entrata e in uscita. Inoltre, nel caso in cui si utilizzi un firewall per proteggere il livello due e il firewall non sia in grado di filtrare il traffico locale all'interno di una VLAN, il traffico locale in una sottorete non passa attraverso il livello superiore o il firewall. Per risolvere questo problema con la sicurezza di livello due, la VLAN privata è la scelta migliore per filtrare il traffico locale e isolare gli host nella VLAN di vendita. Questa ricerca descrive una funzione per isolare gli host nel livello due di uno switch.

Cette monographie présente une étude complète des méthodes de description d'objets géométriques complexes applicables à la résolution de problèmes de modélisation mathématique dans divers domaines, à la visualisation d'objets tridimensionnels et aux aspects géométriques de l'identification de leurs caractéristiques, ainsi qu'à un modèle d'immeuble de grande hauteur. La modélisation de processus physiques et mécaniques et de structures d'ingénierie est souvent associée à la nécessité de créer des modèles géométriques. Grâce à eux, il est possible de définir une image d'un objet existant ou conçu, de réaliser une expérience numérique correspondant à l'énoncé du problème et d'effectuer les corrections nécessaires. La description formelle liée au développement des méthodes modernes de modélisation informatique est avant tout la simulation numérique d'objets géométriques du monde environnant. Dans ce cas, leur diversité est créée à l'aide d'éléments géométriques de base : points, lignes et surfaces.

Ce travail présentera les principes fondamentaux du câblage structuré, le support physique utilisé pour l'installation de systèmes de télévision en circuit fermé. Dans ce travail particulier, il sera utilisé pour l'installation d'une petite centrale hydroélectrique située entre les villes de Pinhal da Serra et Barracão, dans le nord du Rio Grande do Sul, au Brésil. Le câblage structuré est déjà couramment utilisé dans les bureaux et les petites entreprises. Son objectif est d'établir une installation standard, quel que soit le fabricant, et d'offrir à l'utilisateur la possibilité d'expansion ainsi que la facilité des changements physiques sans perte de vitesse et de données, Sur la base de ce concept, nous pouvons utiliser le câblage structuré pour l'installation d'un système de télévision en circuit fermé, car il offrira à l'utilisateur la sécurité des données transmises, en l'occurrence des images, avec la possibilité d'ajouter de nouveaux points, c'est-à-dire des caméras, sans avoir besoin d'un nouveau câblage. Les câbles métalliques à paires torsadées et les fibres optiques seront utilisés pour connecter les composants, qui atteignent tous deux les mêmes objectifs.

La monografia presenta uno studio completo dei metodi di descrizione di oggetti geometrici complessi applicabili alla soluzione di problemi di modellazione matematica in vari campi, alla visualizzazione di oggetti tridimensionali e agli aspetti geometrici dell'identificazione delle loro caratteristiche, nonché al modello di un grattacielo. La modellazione di processi fisici e meccanici e di strutture ingegneristiche è spesso associata alla necessità di creare modelli geometrici. Con il loro aiuto è possibile definire un'immagine di un oggetto esistente o progettato, effettuare un esperimento numerico corrispondente alla dichiarazione del problema ed eseguire le correzioni necessarie. La descrizione formale in relazione allo sviluppo dei moderni metodi di modellazione al computer è principalmente la simulazione numerica di oggetti geometrici del mondo circostante. In questo caso, la loro diversità viene creata utilizzando elementi geometrici di base: punti, linee e superfici.

Spätestens ab 2050 dürfen die Schweiz und die EU nur noch so viele Treibhausgase ausstoßen, wie der Atmosphäre auch wieder entzogen werden. Um dieses Netto-Null-Ziel zu erreichen, gibt es verschiedene politische Instrumente. Eines der wichtigsten ist das marktbasierte Emissionshandelssystem, in dem Rechte für den Ausstoß von CO2 gehandelt werden. Es gilt für Unternehmen aus der Schwerindustrie und der fossilen Energieproduktion, also für die mit den höchsten Emissionen. Alex Tiefenbacher und Luca Mondgenast haben diesen Spezialdeal unter die Lupe genommen und kommen zum Schluss: Bis anhin schützte das vermeintliche Klimaschutzinstrument nicht das Klima, sondern vor allem die Konzerne.'So wie das System in der vergangenen Handelsperiode ausgestaltet war, ist das EHS viel eher eine millionenschwere Subventionierungsmaschine für emissionsstarke Unternehmen als ein griffiges Instrument zur Reduktion von Treibhausgasen.'Die Europäische Union und die Schweiz setzen im Kampf gegen die Klimakrise auf das Emissionshandelssystem (EHS). Es ist eines der wichtigsten politischen Klimaschutzinstrumente und gilt vorwiegend für große Industriebetriebe mit hohen Emissionen wie Zementwerke, Raffinerien, Papierfabriken, Aluminium- und Stahlkonzerne oder Pharmaunternehmen. Diese müssen für jede ausgestoßene Tonne Treibhausgase ein entsprechendes Emissionsrecht vorweisen. Überschüssige Emissionszertifikate können untereinander oder über die Börse gehandelt werden, was Anreiz für Emissionsverminderung bietet. In der Schweiz sind EHS-Unternehmen dafür von der CO¿-Abgabe befreit.Alex Tiefenbacher und Luca Mondgenast haben erstmals umfassend untersucht, was die Teilnahme am Schweizer Emissionshandelssystem für die einzelnen Firmen bedeutet. Sie zeigen: Von 2013 bis 2020 bezahlten die größten Umweltverschmutzer über das EHS zusammen schätzungsweise nur 92 Millionen Franken - einen Bruchteil ihrer verursachten Klimakosten. Die meisten Emissionsrechte bekamen sie geschenkt. Einige Firmen erhielten mehr Gratisrechte, als sie für ihre Treibhausgasemissionen benötigten, und könnten diese gewinnbringend verkaufen. Müssten sie wie die Schweizer Haushalte und KMUs für all ihre Emissionen die normale CO¿-Abgabe bezahlen, hätte sie das 2,9 Milliarden Franken gekostet. Die Reduktion der Treibhausgasemissionen war vergleichsweise gering, und es wurden wenig wirklich transformative Klimainvestitionen getätigt.Geplante Reformen der EU sollen das EHS aus der Geiselhaft der globalisierten Industrie befreien und eine tatsächliche Dekarbonisierung einleiten. Ob dies gelingt und ob die Schweiz mitzieht, wird sich erst noch zeigen müssen.

This book is an introduction to computer programming aimed at the level of a first college course. It is also suitable as a monograph for people beyond the introductory level who are unfamiliar with its methodological content.A typical introductory programming textbook begins with the notions of algorithm, program, computer, program execution, memory, input, and output. The rest of the book presents a programming language. Each language feature is defined by its syntax, i.e., how to punctuate it, and its semantics, i.e., what the feature does during program execution. Small programs or program snippets illustrate each feature and its utility. Because modern programming languages are large, such books are also large. These books are intimidating in their length, but not in their depth.Where in such language-oriented books are students explicitly instructed in how to program? Guidance and suggestions may be scattered throughout the text, but are usually subordinate to the main chapter structure, which is based on language constructs. Illustrative examples are critical, but are usually presented as completed programs. The text typically explains how code works, but not how it was derived. Programming, the dynamic and synthetic activity of creating a program, often gets short shrift, as if you are supposed to learn how to do it by osmosis while staring at code samples. You can know a programming language thoroughly, but still not know how to program. Confronted with a programming problem, you may have no idea where to begin. Or worse, you may head off in the wrong direction, and soon find yourself mired in a morass from which the best path forward may be to back up and start all over again.In contrast, this book is a methodology-oriented introduction to computer programming. Its subject is programming principles, not language features. To keep focus and avoid distraction, it is limited to a minimal programming language, one so small that it can be said to be universal. Programming skill is measured by the ease with which you can turn a problem statement into a working program, not by the number of language features you know.The methodology presented is not specific to a particular language; rather, it applies to programming, in general. The notation used is essentially a small subset of Java, but the book is about programming, not programming in Java. An appendix provides mappings from this core subset of Java to equivalents in Python, C/C++, and JavaScript.The approach is distinctive in that it presents content to beginners that is often considered advanced, e.g., program state-spaces, specifications written in terms of preconditions and postconditions, loop invariants, data-structure invariants, loop variants, and programming by stepwise refinement. But the book retains an introductory character --- by avoiding formalism, offering intuitive analogies, and providing elementary explanations.The book's focus is synthesis, not analysis. Thus, no substantial algorithm or application is presented as a fait accompli for interpretation. Rather, the essential content of the book is the stepwise development of solutions rather than the solutions per se.Language-oriented introductions to programming tend toward being encyclopedic tomes; in contrast, this is a comparatively short, coherent, and digestible book that aspires to tell a compelling story, knitted together by interesting, nontrivial examples that are woven throughout --- a book that invites cover-to-cover reading.
