Description:
" a landmark book in the field of network and system administration. For the first time, in one place, one can study the components of network and system administration as an evolving and emerging discipline and science, rather than a set of recipes, practices, or principles." From the Foreword by Dr Alva Couch, Tufts University, USA
"Mark Burgess' new book brings an analytical, scientific approach to bear on the general subject of systems and network administration. This original perspective opens up a wealth of ideas and possibilities which will be of interest to both the researcher and advanced practitioner in systems administration." Professor Paul Anderson, University of Edinburgh, UK
Network and systems administration usually refers to the skill of keeping computers and networks running properly. But in truth, the skill needed is that of managing complexity - to save time performing common system administration tasks, to allow safe use of untrained and trained help in maintaining mission-critical systems and to enable efficient centralized network administration.
Mark Burgess describes the science behind these complex systems, independent of the operating systems they work on. Rather than viewing the subject traditionally as a set of recipes for success or communications technologies for monitoring, Analytical Network and System Administration:
- provides models and theoretical tools for analysing the resources, efficiency and security of human-computer systems.
- gives advice and guidance on how to determine optimal policies for system administration.
- employs probabilistic rather than Boolean methods.
- illustrates key points with examples and exercises.
The essence of this book concedes the complexity of human-computer systems and urges readers to make the best of it. Although it tackles many complicated issues, the book offers a lightweight overview, suitable for graduate students and researchers in Networking and Computer Science. Its unique approach to an old problem will also appeal to practicing system managers and administrators.
"An unusual book about system administration in that it describes the theory which relates the components - computers and networks to the users and administrators. It is the only book I know that covers the 'science' underpinning systems administration." Professor Morris Sloman, Imperial College London, UK

描述:
這是一本在網路和系統管理領域具有里程碑意義的書籍。這本書首次將網路和系統管理的組件作為一門不斷發展和興起的學科和科學來研究,而不僅僅是一系列的配方、實踐或原則。」來自美國塔夫茨大學的阿爾瓦·考奇博士在前言中這樣寫道。
「馬克·伯吉斯的新書對系統和網路管理這一整體主題提出了一種分析性、科學性的方法。這種獨特的觀點開啟了大量的想法和可能性,對系統管理的研究者和高級實踐者都具有興趣。」英國愛丁堡大學的保羅·安德森教授這樣評價道。
網路和系統管理通常指的是保持電腦和網路正常運行的技能。但事實上,所需的技能是管理複雜性,以節省執行常見系統管理任務的時間,允許在維護關鍵系統時安全使用未經訓練和經過訓練的幫助,並實現高效的集中式網路管理。
馬克·伯吉斯描述了這些複雜系統的科學原理,獨立於它們運行的操作系統。與其傳統上將該主題視為成功配方或通信技術監控的集合,分析性網路和系統管理:
- 提供了分析人機系統資源、效率和安全性的模型和理論工具。
- 提供了確定系統管理最佳策略的建議和指導。
- 採用概率方法而非布爾方法。
- 通過示例和練習說明關鍵點。
本書的核心觀點承認了人機系統的複雜性,並敦促讀者充分利用它。儘管涉及許多複雜問題,但本書提供了一個輕量級的概述,適合網絡和計算機科學的研究生和研究人員閱讀。它獨特的解決方案也將吸引實踐系統管理者和管理員。
「這是一本關於系統管理的不尋常的書籍,因為它描述了將組件(計算機和網絡)與用戶和管理員相關聯的理論。這是我所知道的唯一一本涵蓋系統管理基礎的『科學』書籍。」英國倫敦帝國學院的莫里斯·斯洛曼教授這樣評價道。
