NAT
NAT
Network Address Translation (NAT) prevents direct peer-to-peer connections.
A communication server with a fixed IP address serves as a bridge to allow
users to connect to each other. Example: Microsoft Communicator.
Third-party companies like Skype, WebEx, and Microsoft run servers for a fee
if your company lacks the expertise.

indexes, cross-reference links, and
searches.

help organize the documents and provide
better categorization and cross-
references

Processes and
Employee workflow Client
Steps:
Assessment Measures
•Client Interview
•Quality
•Project definition
•Productivity
•Data collection
•Forecasts
Process evaluation and continual improvement
28. SharePoint: Workflow
A workflow schedule sequentially e-mails the document to selected users.
Workflow types:
• Approval – approve, reject, forward to someone else, request changes
• Collect Feedback – sent to originator when process is completed
• Collect Signature (digital)
• Disposition Approval – agree to remove expired data
31. SharePoint: Configuration
Templates are used to quickly define standard
types of sites.
Color schemes are easy to change and add.
SharePoint Designer adds flexibility to create new
templates and integrate with other software.
SharePoint is built on top of Microsoft ASP .NET
2.0, which is a comprehensive Web server
programming language. Programmers can develop
and integrate complex tools into SharePoint.
Web Parts are pre-built modules to handle
specific complex tasks. For example, the Excel
Web Part enables you to generate new
worksheets from code.
32. Peer-to-Peer Interaction
Communication: Voice, Video, Chat/IM
◦ Microsoft Communicator
◦ Third-party servers (Skype, WebEx, LiveMeeting)
Shared Applications
◦ Meeting Space (old: NetMeeting)
◦ Third-party servers (WebEx, LiveMeeting)
◦ One Note/Live Sharing
◦ Google applications
Replication and Synchronization
◦ Groove
◦ One Note/Shared Folders
Network Address Translation is a big problem
◦ Need a server (internal or third-party) with fixed IP
address.
◦ Possible resolution with IPv6, but will take time (years).

39. Problems with Sharing
Same software
◦ Data conversion tools weak.
◦ Exact layouts require same versions.
◦ Open Document Format (ODF)
Download Office converter from www.sourceforge.net
Might someday make it easier for competitors to interoperate
Same environment, fonts, devices, drivers
◦ Hardware conversions not exact.
◦ Missing devices might cause crashes.
Need access and network paths.
Transmission time.
Concurrency
◦ Tracking.
◦ Locking.
◦ Replication.
40. Cloud-Based Collaboration
Google Docs—can buy business account.
Office Live—integrates better with PC.
Both have similar features and limitations.
◦ Store documents on server.
◦ Provide backups.
◦ Edit within browser—useful for tablets.
◦ Hard to copy-and-paste among tools.
Both allow sharing
◦ Control who sees and edits files.
◦ Simultaneous changes pushed to multiple people.
