Book excerpt: If you haven't worked with T1 before, you could be in for an unpleasant surprise. If you have, you'll already know that T1, the current network standard for business and professional Internet access, is neither efficient, easy to use, nor particularly well-suited to data transmission. T1: A Survival Guide, a practical, applied reference on T1 data transport, is a life raft for navigating the shoals of a 40-year-old technology originally designed for AT&T's voice network.Throughout T1's long life, network administrators have mainly learned it by apprenticeship, stumbling on troubleshooting tidbits and filing them away until they were needed again. This book brings together in one reference the information you need to set up, test, and troubleshoot T1.T1: A Survival Guide covers the following broad topics: What components are needed to build a T1 line, and how those components interact to transmit data effectively How to use standardized link layer protocols to adapt the T1 physical layer to work with data networks How to troubleshoot problems and work with the telephone company, equipment manufacturers, and Internet service providers In spite of its limitations, T1 is a proven, reliable technology that currently meets the need for medium-speed, high reliability Internet access by institutions of many sizes, and it's likely to be around for a while. T1: A Survival Guide will take the guesswork out of using T1 as a data transport.

In addition to having practical personal experience with cold water immersion, Frank Golden and Michael Tipton regularly lecture at various international conferences about water survival, and they are frequently called on for expert commentary on television and radio.

The book, thanks to the real-life stories and easy-to-read format, will appeal primarily to the layperson who works or plays on or near the water. The text will also be of interest to an academic audience, who will appreciate the original research and up-to-date physiological and medical information Essentials of Sea Survival is a compelling, informative, and comprehensive guide to open-water survival. Drawing from classic maritime disasters and personal accounts of near-miraculous survival, as well as carefully controlled laboratory experiments, it offers practical advice for avoiding as well as surviving a cold-water accident. It’s an important reference for anyone associated with open-air aquatic activities, such as members of the Coast Guard, Navy, and Marines; offshore oil rig employees; fishermen; divers; amateur and professional sailors; water safety instructors and life guards; water rescue personnel; boaters; water skiers; outdoor survival course instructors; and other recreational water sports enthusiasts.

Book Synopsis Experiment in Survival by : George Sigler
Download or read book Experiment in Survival written by George Sigler and published by . This book was released on 2001-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lieutenants George Sigler and Charlie Gore left San Francisco in a rubber inflatable boat with absolutely no water and only 6 pounds of food to test survival concepts while crossing the Pacific Ocean. This is the story of two men who believed that they could save lives of future castaways if they took a scientific approach to the problems of survival at sea. Caught in a raging storm, their raft was carried vertically up the side of a rouge wave that towered above them. They were totally helpless as the wave broke, throwing their raft stern over bow. The pilots-turned-seamen found themselves in 59-degree water fighting for their lives. Unable to right their raft and on the verge of becoming hypothermic, they took the drastic step of deflating the raft in order to pull it upright. Days of boredom were punctuated by moments of sheer excitement as whales surrounded their raft, and a Great White shark took all too much interest in them. They fought off an attack by dorado which were determined to sink them by biting through the bottom of the raft.
