As the official Internet Infrastructure Partner of the Nobel Foundation, Cisco provided network infrastructure and technology to help the Nobel e-Museum in Stockholm, Sweden upgrade its networking capabilities. This network infrastructure has optimized the Nobel e-Museum to deliver its vast archives and multimedia educational content to millions worldwide. The Norwegian Nobel Institute, also facing the challenge of a network upgrade, chose Cisco to help solve its need to boost network performance. 1 Long-Reach Ethernet Cisco High-Performance Broadband Technology Eliminates Need for Costly Infrastructure Upgrades Long-reach Ethernet offers high-performance, cost-effective, • Public institutions—As part of its compliance with European and easy-to-deploy high-speed Internet access in many types Union regulations for securing the Polish border, the Polish of buildings ranging from historic structures to multiunit and Border Guard used LRE to upgrade its 300-border-guardstation multi-tenant buildings and enterprise campus environments. network for high-speed Voice over IP (VoIP). • Hotels and motels—The Crowne Plaza Hotel Promenade in • Colleges and universities—New Mexico University uses The Hague, Netherlands, uses Cisco LRE to provide high-speed LRE to provide broadband services to residents in its student broadband connectivity for its guests.

An Historic Challenge The NNI has occupied its present building for almost a century. As part of its Nobel Cisco Internet Initiative, Cisco conducted Its data network has grown over the years in a progression of a full network analysis of the NNI’s existing infrastructure to installations, filling up existing conduits with wires and cables determine current and future needs, as it did with the Nobel that are no longer in use. With cabling so tightly packed in the e-Museum. The NNI analysis revealed that usable bandwidth historic building’s walls, plans to add fiber were quickly aban- from its coax, half-duplex, shared service was so congested that doned. Much of the previous network relied on aging coaxial it was delivering a fraction of what the network should have been cabling, which was rapidly decaying.

Usable bandwidth the conduits, cable in some offices was simply laid on the floor. was just 2.78 Mbps—a mere 27.8 percent of the potential band- Frequent movement of NNI staff and visitors was causing width. In addition, no wiring documentation was available to damage, reducing data transmission efficiency. sort out and identify the tangle of cables packed in the walls. “The network was so unstable that on occasion users could not Upgrading the network was urgent. “The old coax was getting access it until it had been restarted a couple of times,” said Bjorn brittle and I was getting really concerned about the quality of Feen, NNI Technology Manager. Bandwidth, too, was insufficient the cables and connection points,” said Bjorn. “We were trying to support many of the critical applications. “Since it was a flat, to make do with 10-Mbps shared service, which was shared un-switched network, we were all sitting in a ring, and if one among as many as 18 simultaneous users.

Another alternative, running cable audio, according to Bjorn. “The amount of data going through on the surface of walls, was determined to be prohibitive in cost, our network is only likely to increase in the future with sheer time, and effort. The sheer thickness of the walls (60 centimeters, growth of archive research data and streaming media content,” or about two feet) prevented initiating wireless technology on a he said. building-wide basis. “It appeared that there was no practical solution to our cabling and bandwidth problem until Cisco suggested a new approach,” Bjorn said. 2 The Norwegian Nobel Institute Chooses Long Reach Ethernet Solution To resolve the NNI’s dilemma and provide sufficient bandwidth for current and future needs, Cisco proposed long-reach Ethernet (LRE) in-building technology, part of the Cisco Internet Mobile Office solution. This innovative solution—Digital Subscriber Line Implementing LRE allowed the Norwegian Nobel Institute to (DSL)-based, Ethernet-speed connectivity over standard, existing use the same copper wiring that had been serving its existing phone lines—would reduce the need to add or replace wiring PBX system for the past several years.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: the SOUND of SILENCE
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: THE SOUND OF SILENCE: POWER, SECRECY, AND INTERNATIONAL AUDIENCES IN U.S. OVERSEAS MILITARY BASING NEGOTIATIONS Jonathan N. Brown, Doctor of Philosophy, 2012 Dissertation directed by: Professor Paul Huth Department of Government and Politics This dissertation poses two basic questions: (1) Under what conditions are leaders more or less likely to publicly acknowledge cooperative security negotiations or to pursue talks secretly? (2) What impact does this decision have on leaders’ subsequent bargaining behavior and their overall prospects of achieving cooperation? To answer these questions, I develop a realist-inspired theoretical framework that advances two main arguments about leaders’ management of national security information. First, international audiences – namely, third-party states – rather than domestic audiences often constitute the principal targets of official secrecy and public acknowledgement. Second, leaders’ control of information is shaped primarily by the international strategic context and the scope of their states’ national security interests rather than domestic political incentives and institutions. My central claim and finding is that states’ power positions in the international system fundamentally influence not only the way that leaders control information during cooperative security negotiations but also the impact that information management has on leaders’ subsequent willingness to make concessions during talks and their likelihood of reaching an agreement. I evaluate these arguments

Jeg har blitt kjent med mange nye mennesker; jeg har blitt fortrolig med et nytt forskingsfelt; jeg har fått gode muligheter til å reise på forskingsopphold og delta på konferanser – kort sagt: jeg har vært privilegert. I disse åra møtte jeg også Helga, som ble kona mi, og sammen har vi fått to flotte barn. Helga har vært tålmodigheta sjøl i denne tida – med småbarn, oppussing og avhandlingsarbeidet mitt, og jeg takker deg så mye for det. Jeg fikk muligheta til å forske i den kalde krigens historie som stipendiat ved Høgskolen i Bodø/Norsk Luftfartsmuseum 2001–04. Museet og høgskolen ga meg svært gode arbeidsbetingelser, og jeg er veldig takknemlig for det. Nå vil jeg gjerne få takke mine venner på museet og historikermiljøet ved høgskolen for ei flott tid. Særlig vil jeg trekke fram det såkalte ”forskingsseminaret” på høgskolen, der jeg har lagt fram mange utkast og fått nyttige kommentarer. Fra Bodø-miljøet vil jeg få nevne noen spesielt: Karl L. Kleve for et langvarig og godt samarbeid, Svein Lundestad, som har lagt alt til rette for meg og vært rausheta sjøl, og Wilhelm Karlsen, min gode kollega og venn. Takk skal dere ha! Også historikermiljøet i Tromsø skal ha en takk for mange gode kommentarer og innspill underveis i prosessen. Hallvard Tjelmeland har vært min samvittighetsfulle veileder under arbeidet.

  • Irwin Abrams—Historian and Champion of the Nobel Peace Prize by Peter Van Den Dungen
    30 PEACE & CHANGE / January 2005 Irwin Abrams—Historian and Champion of the Nobel Peace Prize by Peter van den Dungen Although the subject of much interest and admiration around the world, scholarly interest in the Nobel Peace Prize, as well as exploration of its potential as an instrument of peace education, has been limited. Irwin Abrams’s many publications in the field, especially during the past quarter century, has made him both the prime scholar-historian of the prize, and its leading publicist and popularizer. His writings on the subject comprise three related but distinct aspects: documentation, education and outreach, and interpretation and evaluation. While the history of pacifism and of the peace idea is a long one, that of the organized peace movement is confined to the last two centuries. The history of the Nobel Peace Prize is even shorter; the Norwegian Nobel Committee was established and the Prize instituted in the closing years of the nineteenth century, the first award being made in 1901. Many of the early laureates of the prize were prominent members of the international peace movement of the time, with strong connections to some of its leading organizations, especially the International Peace Bureau (IPB) and the Inter-Parliamenary Union (IPU). The creation of the prize itself cannot be separated from the general peace movement milieu—its organizations and leaders, as well as their campaigns and ideas—out of which it was born during the last decade of the nineteenth century. Alfred Nobel urged Bertha von Suttner to inform him of the work in which she and her fellow peace campaigners were engaged and to convince him of its effectiveness.
