Network Software

Since the data base for this Instrument resides on the host HP 1000 computer, the experiment setup files must first be transferred from the local computer to the HOST computer. This 1s done using the Dowell Schlumberger local laboratory computer network and the Hewlett Packard DS/1000-IV networking software. The programmatic user interface to the network Is again accessed through the main menu program for the instrument. 

The first contact that many scientific users have with neural networks is through commercially available software. The manuals and Help systems in off-the-shelf neural network software may not offer much on the principles of the method, so, on a first encounter, ANNs might appear to be black boxes whose inner workings are both mysterious and baffling (Figure 2.3). 

Contact your local Bruker representative for the actual versions of the two standard WIN-NMR programs and the GETFILE program and for additional information concerning the different dongle types and for detailed description.s of how to install and operate these software tools, or of how to import data using Ethernet, or the Bruker network software NMRLINK, Fastran or Kermit, if you want to use them for your future spectroscopic work. 

Provide a clearly worded description of the VUS and its purpose in the organization. Also describe the makeup of the VUS (multiple servers, networks, software packages, etc.). This does not need to be technically in depth, but should provide a basic framework for understanding the system concepts. Consider including an explanatory diagram.

The artificial neural network (ANN) is a relatively new technique and possibly the preferred one for current and future (Q)SAR development. Basically, ANNs can be regarded as multinonlinear regression methods. Thus, the neural network software simply multiplies the input by a set of weights that in a nonlinear way transforms the...

A. The Microsoft Client for Microsoft Networks software is used to allow the computer to access network resources located on other Microsoft computers. See Chapter 18 for more information. 

Network Operating System (NOS) Similar to a standard operating system, except that the NOS is optimized to provide services to other machines on the network. NOS software is examined briefly in Part II, Chapter 18, Configuring Network Software, but is discussed in-depth in Sybex s Network+ Study Guide. 

Windows includes a number of command-line utilities. Among these is the IPCON FIG utility of Windows 2000. If you are running Windows 2000, this is the utility that allows you to check on the TCP/IP settings of the machine. (TCP/IP is the protocol which allows networked computers to use the Internet, and as such is something you will probably see a lot of. It will be discussed further in Chapter 18, Configuring Network Software. )... 

Internet Options Sets a number of options which are discussed in more detail in Chapter 18, "Configuring Network Software."... 

For now we will only discuss logging on to the local computer. In Chapter 18, "Configuring Network Software," we will look into other logon options during an examination of Windows 2000 Professional networking options. 

This tab is used to define whether the machine is in a workgroup or a domain environment. We will talk more about networking in Part II, Chapter 18, Configuring Network Software, but in general terms, the difference between a workgroup and a domain is this ... 

In the networking software business, there are quite a few major players (like Novell, Microsoft, IBM, and Seagate). However, there are clearly two leaders in the game Novell (whose company headquarters is in Provo, UT) and Microsoft (headquartered in Redmond, WA). Each company produces several software products for networks, but in the following sections, we ll focus on the different ways that Windows 98 and Windows 2000 connect to the networking operating systems (NOSs) made by these two companies. 

Sometimes older NICs can conflict with newer Plug-and-Play (PnP) hardware. Additionally, some newer NICs with PnP capability don t like some kinds of networking software. To resolve a PnP conflict of the latter type, disable PnP on the NIC either with a jumper or with the software setup program. In this chapter, we will assume that your NIC is installed and the drivers are loaded. For more information on resolving hardware issues, refer to Chapter 16. 

Internet was nothing but a group of mainframe computers connecting selected military and university campuses. At that time, it seemed that the thing to do when you created network software was to also create your own proprietary protocol and assume that no one would ever connect to any network but yours. Novell had IPX/SPX, Apple had AppleTalk, and Microsoft, sadly, came up with NetBEUI.
