Network management

Network management is the process of administering and managing computer networks. Services provided by this discipline include fault analysis, performance management, provisioning of networks and maintaining quality of service. Network management software is used by network administrators to help perform these functions. A small number of accessory methods exist to support network and network device management. Network management allows IT professionals to monitor network components within large network area. Access methods include the SNMP, command-line interface (CLI), custom XML, CMIP, Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), Transaction Language 1 (TL1), CORBA, NETCONF, and the Java Management Extensions (JMX). Schemas include the Structure of Management Information (SMI), WBEM, the Common Information Model (CIM Schema), and MTOSI amongst others.

Interconnection

In telecommunications, interconnection is the physical linking of a carrier's network with equipment or facilities not belonging to that network. The term may refer to a connection between a carrier's facilities and the equipment belonging to its customer, or to a connection between two or more carriers. In United States regulatory law, interconnection is specifically defined (47 C.F.R. 51.5) as "the linking of two or more networks for the mutual exchange of traffic.

Capacity management

Capacity management's goal is to ensure that information technology resources are sufficient to meet upcoming business requirements cost-effectively. One common interpretation of capacity management is described in the ITIL framework. ITIL version 3 views capacity management as comprising three sub-processes: business capacity management, service capacity management, and component capacity management. As the usage of IT services change and functionality evolves, the amount of central processing units (CPUs), memory and storage to a physical or virtual server etc.

FCAPS

FCAPS is the ISO Telecommunications Management Network model and framework for network management. FCAPS is an acronym for fault, configuration, accounting, performance, security, the management categories into which the ISO model defines network management tasks. In non-billing organizations accounting is sometimes replaced with administration. The ISO, under the direction of the OSI group, has created a network management model as the primary means for understanding the major functions of network management systems.

First steps towards interlocking modular microfluidic cooling substrates (i-MμCS) for future silicon tracking detectors in High Energy Physics (HEP)

Philippe Renaud, Massimo Angeletti

In future High Energy Physics detectors, the coverage of large surfaces with silicon pixel chip sensors poses a challenge for the sensors positioning, for their cooling, assembly, and interconnection. The use of a cooling substrate on which the sensors are glued is typically limited by the bulky and complicated hydraulic interconnection between adjacent substrates. In this research, a new type of cooling substrate is presented. Its design is based on microchannels, where additive manufacturing of plastic and ceramic materials has been considered an alternative to the current silicon etching process. A solution to the mechanical and hydraulic interconnection problem is achieved through a modular interlocking concept. Design optimisation was followed having identified three relevant parameters, plug-and-ply, interchangeability and sealing performance, which qualify the substrates interconnection and guaranty their correct positioning. This paper poses the bases to a new substrate category where modularity, re-workability and easy connectivity are the strong points. This concept could find applications also outside High Energy Physics experiments such as hardware cloud computing and medical detectors.
