Lurking in relevant newsgroups can also be an effective means of online market research. -
112 Porter, Michael E.
(b. 1947) Gen MgtU.S. academic and consultant. Known for his theories such as the value chain designed to help businesses examine their competitive capabilities. In Competitive Strategy (1980), Porter argued that to gain competitive advantage, an organization needs to perform the activities in the value chain more cheaply or in a better way than its competitors. More recently, in response to thinkers such as Gary Hamel, he advised on using the value chain to achieve differentiation from other players in a market.Porter studied at Harvard, and at the age of 26 he became one of the youngest tenured professors in the school’s history. He has served as a counselor on competitive strategy to many leading U.S. and international companies and plays an active role in economic policy with the U.S. Congress, business groups, and as an advisor to foreign governments. -

система сетевого управления
Отвечает за управление хотя бы частью сети. Обычно NMS установлена на достаточно мощном и хорошо оснащенном компьютере для взаимодействия с локальными агентами, помогающими собирать сетевую статистику и информацию о ресурсах.
[ http://www.iks-media.ru/glossary/index.html?glossid=2400324]Современный бизнес не существует без компьютерных и телекоммуникационных технологий. Информационная инфраструктура большинства компаний представляет собой сложную разнородную сеть, в состав которой входит разнообразное программное и аппаратное обеспечение многих производителей. При этом каждый производитель телекоммуникационного оборудования стремится продвигать собственные стандарты.
Основная задача при управлении компьютерными сетями - автоматизировать процесс конфигурирования и мониторинга параметров сети. Существует множество моделей и систем сетевого управления. Попробуем разобраться в этом разнообразии.
Обычно система сетевого управления представляет собой прикладную программу высокого уровня, использующую один из стандартных протоколов сетевого управления - Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) или Common Management Information Protocol (CMIP). CMIP применяется в телекоммуникационных сетях, где востребованы все доступные возможности управления сетями, в то время как SNMP используется в локальных и корпоративных сетях, где достаточно минимума данных.
Основные задачи системы управления таковы:
- обеспечение высокой производительности сети;
- обеспечение удобной среды для управления сетевыми ресурсами;
- сбор информации о состоянии всех сетевых устройств;
- анализ и хранение информации о состоянии всех сетевых устройств;
- прогнозирование сбоев в работе сети.
Протоколы управления сетямиИтак, системы управления сетями используют протокол SNMP или CMIP. В систему, основанную на протоколе SNMP, входят:
- протокол взаимодействия агента и менеджера;
- язык описания моделей MIB и сообщений SNMP - язык абстрактной синтаксической нотации ASN.1;
- ограниченное количество моделей MIB (MIB-I, MIB-II, RMON, …).
Изначально протокол SNMP и база SNMP MIB разрабатывались как временное решение для управления маршрутизаторами Интернета. Но решение оказалось настолько простым, эффективным и гибким, что и по сей день оно повсеместно применяется при управлении сетевым оборудованием.
С помощью протокола SNMP можно оценить производительность сетевых устройств, количество свободных ресурсов, загруженность, а также определить множество других полезных характеристик, необходимых для управления сетевыми устройствами. SNMP - это протокол типа "запрос-ответ" (т. е. на каждый запрос менеджера должен быть передан ответ агента).
Протокол SNMP имеет не слишком большой набор команд. Команда Get-request применяется менеджером для получения от агента значения объекта по имени. Команда GetNext-request применяется менеджером, чтобы получить значение следующего объекта при последовательном обходе MIB. При помощи команды Get-response агент SNMP передает менеджеру результаты вышеперечисленных команд. Команда Set устанавливает значения объекта, а команда Trap сообщает менеджеру о возникновении какой-либо нестандартной ситуации. Кроме того, в SNMP версии 2 добавлена команда GetBulk, при помощи которой менеджер может получить несколько значений переменных за один запрос.
