However, our new research reveals that while awareness is high, taking meaningful action is still lacking. On the corporate side, many organizations report strong policies for managing third-party data and consumer consent yet fall short when it comes to consistency, accountability and transparency.
This session will explore the research findings from TrustArc’s Privacy Pulse Survey, examining consumer attitudes toward personal data collection and practical suggestions for corporate practices around purchasing third-party data.
Attendees will learn:
- Consumer awareness around data brokers and what consumers are doing to limit data collection
- How businesses assess third-party vendors and their consent management operations
- Where business preparedness needs improvement
- What these trends mean for the future of privacy governance and public trust
This discussion is essential for privacy, risk, and compliance professionals who want to ground their strategies in current data and prepare for what’s next in the privacy landscape.

Artificial Intelligence is providing benefits in many areas of work within the heritage sector, from image analysis, to ideas generation, and new research tools. However, it is more critical than ever for people, with analogue intelligence, to ensure the integrity and ethical use of AI. Including real people can improve the use of AI by identifying potential biases, cross-checking results, refining workflows, and providing contextual relevance to AI-driven results.
News about the impact of AI often paints a rosy picture. In practice, there are many potential pitfalls. This presentation discusses these issues and looks at the role of analogue intelligence and analogue interfaces in providing the best results to our audiences. How do we deal with factually incorrect results? How do we get content generated that better reflects the diversity of our communities? What roles are there for physical, in-person experiences in the digital world?
This is the keynote of the Into the Box conference, highlighting the release of the BoxLang JVM language, its key enhancements, and its vision for the future.

2. • 3 primary logical architectures
1. Host-based
• Traditional mainframe / central computer model
2. Client-based / Peer-to-Peer
• Historically most home-based and many small office
networks
3. Client-server
• Microsoft model – or what we commonly see today
• Fairly powerful clients interacting with some number
of servers
• Model used on campus
WE WILL ONLY FOCUS ON CLIENT/ SERVER
ARCHITECTURE.
4. A network architecture
in which each computer
or process on the
network is either
a client or a server.
5. A simple definition
A simple definition of CS is
“ server software accepts requests for data
from client software and returns the
results to the client.”
7. • CS model distinguishes between client
/ server devices and applications.
• Clients request specific services.
• Servers respond to individual client
requests for services.
– Functionality implemented in software
• Depending on services the server provides,
physical server computers can be different than
other servers and client computers (i.e. more
processing power, more memory, etc.)
9. • Structured architecture with specific roles
for specific devices using specific
applications.
– File server, printer server.
• A “managed” network .
– Unlike P2P will have a network admin.
• CS is the most commonly observed
architecture.
– Most applications are designed to be used on
CS architecture.
10. • Balance processing between clients and
server(s) by dividing functions.
– Client – presentation and application logic.
– Server – Data access logic, data storage,
application logic.
11. • Applications that run on computers.
• Rely on servers for
– Files.
– Devices. Clients are Applications
– Processing power.
• Example: E-mail client
– An application that enables you to send and
receive e-mail.
12. • Computers or processes that manage
network resources
– Disk drives (file servers) Servers Manage
– Printers (print servers) Resources
– Network traffic (network servers)
• Example: Database Server
– A computer system that processes database
queries.
14. • Data-oriented; used only for data storage
and management.
• Since a data server can serve more than
one compute server, compute-intensive
applications can be spread among multiple
severs.
• Does not prefer any application logic
processing.
• Performs processes such as data validation,
required as part of the data management
function.
• Requires fast processor, large amount of
memory and substantial Hard disk capacity..

19. o Client-server is a computing architecture which
separates a client from a server.
o It is almost always implemented over a computer
network.
o The most basic type of client-server architecture
employs only two types of nodes: clients and servers.
This type of architecture is sometimes referred to
as two-tier.
It allows devices to share files and resources.
o Server provides the service.
o Client is considered as the customer requesting the
service.
o The server service can be shared among a number of
clients.
o Clients must request or initiate the service.
o The location of the server in the network is transparent
to clients.
20. • File servers
– File sharing and file processing.
• Data base servers
– Passing file results
– Example: Query in DBMS server
– Typically one single request/reply
• Transaction servers
– Transaction server includes DBMS and transaction monitoring.
– Server has remote procedures run online by the client.
• web servers
– Super-fat servers and thin clients.
– Uses HTTP protocol.
– Java was first to introduce interactive C/S forms.

21. • Where to push the application to
• Fat clients
– The bulk of the application is running on the client .
– The client knows how the data is organized and where it is .
– Different clients access the same applications different ways .
• Fat servers
– The server more complicated.
– The clients are less complex .
– More of the code runs on the server .
– The network interaction is minimized.
ServerClient
Application
22. It is the (/) between client and server which glues them
together.
– Allowing the client request for a service and the server
providing it.
• Middleware can also be between server/server.
• Two broad classes
– General
• LAN servers, TCP/IP, Communication stacks,
Queuing services, etc.
– Application specific
• Used to accomplish a specific task
• Groupware specific: SMTP
• Internet specific: HTTP
• Database specific: SQL.
23. • Purpose
– To divide the application
between the client and server
– Different functionalities of
client and server
• Basic client server model
– Fits various applications
• Small office
• Small business
• Enterprise
• Global

Superserver
Multiservers
26. • Superserver
– A very powerful server.
– Single-server or multiserver.
– Each server can have a single processor or multiprocessor.
– Multiprocessing can be Asymmetric or Symmetric.
• Multiprocessing
• Asymmetric: each processor is dedicated to a
specific task
• Fully symmetric (SMP): applications are divided
into threads and threads are sent to available
processors
– Examples: 32-bit NT, Unix, NetWare
– Requires 3 basic functionalities:
» Global scheduling
» I/O sharing structure
» OS access sharing
27. • Multi servers
– Pool of servers, providing more processing
power (also called a cluster).
– They divide the task between different servers.
• Server lite
– As opposed to full blown servers.
– Provides a background process on the client
machine that can accept unsolicited networks
request (refreshing database, synchronizing
time, etc.)
28. • Network services (in general) are the
specific functions/tasks/jobs provided by
the network
– File sharing
– Printing
– Communication
– Mail
– Internet
– Management.
29. • File and print services
– Allow sharing of data files and printers
• Communications services
– Such as mail services
• Coordination and storage of email
• Internet services
– WWW, FTP, some security
• Access services
– Allow remote users to connect to network
• Login (authorization / authentication)
• Network Management Services
– Traffic monitoring, load balancing, diagnostics
30. • Networking in Linux follows the client/server
model
– Server provides the resource (web server).
– Client talks to the server (browser, e-mail
program).
• Server has a corresponding program that
communicates with the client (runs in the
background)
– In Windows the server program called service .
– In Linux the server program called daemon.
32. • 1) Local Area Network (LAN)
• 2) Wide Area Network (WAN)
• 3) Metropolitan Area Network (MAN)
33. • A LAN is a group of computers located in a relatively small
geographical area (like a building or group of buildings).
– Typically owned by a single organization
• A local area network (LAN) is a computer network that
interconnects computers within a limited area such as a home,
school, computer laboratory, or office building, using network
media.[1] The defining characteristics of LANs, in contrast to wide
area networks (WANs), include their smaller geographic area,
and non-inclusion of leased telecommunication lines.
• A group of computers connected within a confined geographic
area.
• Commonly used for intra office communication.
34. • Various configurations, called topologies,
have been used to administer LANs.
– Ring topology A configuration that connects all
nodes in a closed loop on which messages travel in
one direction.
– Star topology A configuration that centers
around one node to which all others are connected
and through which all messages are sent.
– Bus topology All nodes are connected to a
single communication line that carries messages in
both directions.
37. • A wide area network (WAN) is a network that covers a
broad area (i.e., any telecommunications network that
links across metropolitan, regional, national or
international boundaries) using leased
telecommunication lines. Business and government
entities utilize WANs to relay data among employees,
clients, buyers, and suppliers from various geographical
locations. In essence, this mode of telecommunication
allows a business to effectively carry out its daily function
regardless of location. The Internet can be considered a
WAN as well, and is used by businesses, governments,
organizations, and individuals for almost any purpose
imaginable.[1]
39. LAN
• High speed (≥1000 mbps)
• Tend to primarily use Ethernet and
Wi Fi, but also use Token Passing.
• Generally consist of layer 2 devices
like switches, bridges. To a lesser
extent layer1 devices like hubs &
repeaters.
• Typically owned, controlled, and
managed by a single organization.
• Cost is Low as compared to WAN.
WAN
• Low speed (≤ 155 mbps)
• WANs tend to use technology like
MPLS and ATM, and to a lesser
extent (Frame Relay & X.25) for
connectivity over the longer
distances.
• Layer 3 (+) devices such as routers,
multi-layer switches and technology
specific devices like ATM or Frame-
relay Switches etc.
• WANs are typically not owned by
any one organization but exist under
collective or distributed ownership
and management over long
distances.
• Cost is high as compared to LAN.
40. • A metropolitan area network (MAN)
is a computer network in which two or
more computers or communicating
devices or networks which are
geographically separated but in same
metropolitan city and are connected to
each other are said to be connected on
MAN. Metropolitan limits are
determined by local municipal
corporations; the larger city, bigger
then MAN, the smaller a metro city,
smaller the MAN. [1]
