Book information
Description
Organised jointly by the International Committee for Historic House Museums (ICOM DEMHIST ) and the Association of European Royal Residences (ARRE ), the conference ‘Authenticity in the Conservation of Historic Houses and Palace- Museums’ took place from 7-11 October 2014 at the Palace of Compiègne (France).This multidisciplinary, international conference aimed to contribute to the debate on authenticity in the conservation of historic house museums and palaces, to discuss how the idea has changed over time and to participate in the dissemination of best practices.In order to explore the subject properly, the programme lasted five days: two conference days at the Palace of Compiègne on 7 and 9 October and three days visiting some of the most emblematic residences of the Île-de-France region on 8, 10 and 11 October.The Palace of Compiègne designed by Jacques-Ange Gabriel for Louis XV, completed by Louis XVI, then refurbished by Napoleon I, perfectly illustrates the complexity involved in the notion of authenticity in conservation, particularly in relation to multiple historical layers across time. Speakers at the conference were international specialists, researchers, practitioners and professionals in the field. Workshops also provided a forum for discussion on specific subjects.Exclusive visits to other significant sites in the region enabled participants to discuss the issues of authenticity that they raise: the former royal residences of Fontainebleau and Versailles; the Duke of Aumale’s castle in Chantilly and the Cahen d’Anvers château in Champs-sur-Marne; the castle of Pierrefonds (restored by Viollet-Le-Duc for Napoleon III) and the privately-owned château du Fayel.This meeting was for professionals employed in the field of historic house museum conservation and anyone who wished to contribute to this fascinating subject at some of France’s most outstanding sites. Presentations were in French or in English and translated simultaneously into either of the two languages ; the proceedings are also available online in English and French.

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
