The Temenos T24 core banking application is a critical application for the banks that use it and has a primary focus on providing an appropriate level of high availability and disaster recovery. The level of availability is determined largely by the configuration of the infrastructure that supports T24. This infrastructure is built on hardware, middleware, and networking, in addition to the operational procedures and practices that are used to operate T24. Many options are available for meeting a client's high availability and disaster recovery requirements. The solution chosen by a Temenos T24 user depends on many factors. These factors include a user's detailed availability and recovery requirements; their existing datacenter standards, practices, and processes; and the available network infrastructure. Therefore, the optimum solution must be determined on a case-by-case basis for each deployment. This IBM® RedpaperTM publication serves as a guide to help IT architects and other technical staff who are designing, configuring, and building the infrastructure to support Temenos T24. It shows how IBM software can deliver high availability and disaster recovery for Temenos T24 to meet a client's requirements. This software might run on IBM AIX®, IBM WebSphere® Application Server, WebSphere MQ Server, and IBM DB2®. These IBM software components are typically used for a Temenos T24 deployment on an IBM middleware stack to ensure a highly available infrastructure for T24.

How do landscapes—defined in the broadest sense to incorporate the physical contours of the built environment, the aesthetics of form, and the imaginative reflections of spatial representations—contribute to the making of politics? Shifting through the archaeological, epigraphic, and artistic remains of early complex societies, this provocative and far-reaching book is the first systematic attempt to explain the links between spatial organization and politics from an anthropological point of view. The Classic-period Maya, the kingdom of Urartu, and the cities of early southern Mesopotamia provide the focal points for this multidimensional account of human polities. Are the cities and villages in which we live and work, the lands that are woven into our senses of cultural and personal identity, and the national territories we occupy merely stages on which historical processes and political rituals are enacted? Or do the forms of buildings and streets, the evocative sensibilities of architecture and vista, the aesthetics of place conjured in art and media constitute political landscapes—broad sets of spatial practices critical to the formation, operation, and overthrow of polities, regimes, and institutions? Smith brings together contemporary theoretical developments from geography and social theory with anthropological perspectives and archaeological data to pursue these questions.

The city of Pisidian Antioch was founded in the hellenistic period by the Seleucids, in what is now south-west Turkey. Under the emperor Augustus it became the most important Roman colony of the eastern empire. The city flourished until the sixth century AD. It has left dramatic and extensive ruins. This comprehensive and fully-illustrated study, a sequel to Mitchell's Cremna in Pisidia, is based on a new survey of the site. It also includes the results of the most recent Turkish field work as well as detailed information from the important but unpublished 1924 excavation by the University of Michigan.

The present volume comprises 6 highly original studies on material text cultures in different nontypographic societies stretching from the 3rd millennium cuneiform textual record of Ancient Mesopotamia to 20th century Qur'anic boards of northern and central African provenience. It provides a multidisciplinary approach to material text cultures complementary to the interdisciplinary, strongly theory-grounded research scheme of the CRC 933. Six research fellowships were awarded to outstanding young researchers for innovative, high-risk research proposals pertinent to the CRC 933's overall research scheme. Their studies contained in this volume add multidisciplinary dimension to material text culture research, satisfy the curiosity as to the applicability of the theoretical premises and methodology developed and tested by the CRC 933 to research on inscribed artefacts carried out on an international level and in different research environments and contribute to anchoring material text culture research as proposed by the CRC 933 within the tradition and broader context of other research strategies devoted to the material dimension of writing, such as the filologia materiale.
