The telecommunications scene is changing rapidly as the global information society comes closer. Modern broadband networks make it feasible to interconnect distributed systems on a worldwide basis. But to realize a global information infrastructure that uses the capabilites of broadband interconnection to the full, cooperative telecommunications service management needs particular attention. This monograph is the final report of the European RACE II Research Project PREPARE, devoted to designing and implementing prototype telecommunications management systems over real testbeds. The excellent results presented are a major contribution to advancing the state of the art in the field and have been widely acknowledged by standards bodies, manufacturers, operators, service providers, and academics.

Un panorama des plus belles œuvres architecturales réalisées par des femmes, du début du xxe siècle à nos jours. « Diriez-vous de moi que je suis une diva si j’étais un homme ? » avait dit Zaha Hadid, bousculant plus d’un siècle de sexisme en architecture. Un siècle au cours duquel les femmes se sont vues refuser l’accès aux écoles d’architecture, voire aux diplômes alors qu’elles avaient suivis les cours. Aujourd’hui encore, elles ne représentent que 10 % des plus hauts postes dans les agences d’architecture. En réponse à ce contexte, cet ouvrage rend un hommage essentiel aux créations architecturales des femmes architectes. Avec plus de 150 réalisations couvrant plus d’une centaine d’années, cet ouvrage est un véritable manifeste. C’est un témoignage photo graphique de l’extraordinaire contribution des femmes au métier d’architecte.

Every five years, the Australian treasurer is required to publish an intergenerational report (IGR), which examines the long-term sustainability of current government policies and seeks to determine how demographic, technological and other structural trends might affect the economy and the budget in coming decades. Despite these lofty objectives, the five IGRs produced from 2002 have received only muted applause. Critics say that they are too mechanical, too narrow and too subject to the views of the government of the day and that they don't provide the intended wake-up call for public understanding of looming economic, social and environmental issues. This analysis of the most recent IGR (2021) is based on a workshop hosted by the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia. While finding that the 2021 IGR is an improvement on the previous report (2015), the authors identify several fiscal and broader policy issues that deserve greater attention, including Australia's structural deficit, rising inequality and the impacts of climate change. They argue that the report fails to discuss the policies required to support greater resilience against future shocks, including the case for earlier budget repair. They propose that future IGRs be prepared with greater independence, cover all levels of government, have more transparent analysis and draw upon a wider 'wellbeing' approach to long-term sustainability. This book aims to attract close attention from public officials and politicians and generate constructive debate in the community.
