Beyond mere security
Recently I came across an Express Computer special issue on security. A special
issue on this topic is a great idea as it is a key topic within the industry
today.
And it’s not just about firewalls any more. The trend has moved on far
ahead of the issues that have been depicted. Today, it’s firewall with
application intelligence and gone are the days of packet filter, stateful packet
filter etc. And the industry has also moved beyond plain intrusion detection
systems to inline intrusion prevention systems. Vendors are in the process of
bringing out advanced systems and we should see them hitting the market in the
near future.

Rules and regulations
I am an active reader of Express Computer. It’s really great that .Net
is an integral part of your magazine and that you are giving the required importance
to .Net technologies. Also, the C# column by Yashwant Kanetkar is amazing. I
would be grateful if you could publish the various IT laws and the guidelines
for building a professional website using ASP.Net in forthcoming issues.

The business of technology?
I am a student of MCA and a regular reader of Express Computer. Like me, there
are lakhs of students who are involved in various projects. I think all computer
students are in need of Yashwant Kanetkar’s tips on C# and .Net. There
are many other technologies on which your magazine could provide us with valuable
tips. This would also help us in the projects we are involved in. But of late,
Express Computer has been metamorphosing into ‘Express Management’.
The focus has been more on management issues. Our request is to keep this weekly
a core level computer magazine publishing articles on hardware and software,
coding, and technology.

IT in medicine
I am an engineering student (Information Technology) and have been following
this weekly for the last eight months. I take pleasure is saying that Express
Computer has brought about a very positive change in my outlook towards the
business as well as the technical aspects of IT.
IT is an all-pervasive field with applications in each and every field. My interest
specifically lies in the field of medical informatics. The areas of my interest
include health care systems, information systems, intelligent diagnosing systems,
decision support systems, etc. Bioinformatics is also another emerging offshoot
of medical informatics.
As a keen reader of EC and a passionate lover of medical informatics, I would
request you to come up with issues/articles on medical informatics (covering
the companies involved in such type of work, technological advancements, scope,
etc).
I am sure that other professionals will definitely pay heed towards this sincere
request from a young Indian on behalf of all the lovers of medical informatics.

We are leading
In your article on NLE systems, ‘NLE comes to Bollywood’, posted on
your website [EC June 30, 2003] there was no mention of Leitch’s DPS Velocity
and Quattrus non-linear editing systems and Softimage XSI and Softimage 3D and
Digital Fusion, Special fx and 3D animation products.
Where as both Leitch DPS Velocity Quattrus and XSI 3D have a sizeable market
share in the consumer, desktop and finishing markets. In fact, Sahara TV, Crest
Communication, Balaji Films, National Institute of Design and Prasad Labs, are
some of the users who create, edit, animate and insert graphics and other special
effects using the Velocity, Quattrus, XSI, 3D and Digital Fusion platform.
According to certain reports, DPS Velocity, Quattrus, Digital Fusion, XSI and
3D, all marketed by Shaf Broadcast, together account for 32 percent of market
in the DVE segment, nearly one-third of the total DVE industry in India.
