Duplicate detection or record linkage is a variety of automated methods that can be used to identify cases in records that represent the same object in the real world. This is necessary, for example, when merging multiple data sources (deduplication) or when cleaning data. Duplicates can arise, for example, due to input and transmission errors, due to different spellings and abbreviations, or … [Read more...]

What is Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) in Networking
A demilitarized zone (DMZ) is a computer network with security-controlled access to the servers connected to it. The systems installed in the DMZ are shielded from other networks (e.g. Internet, LAN) by one or more firewalls. This separation allows access to publicly accessible services (bastion hosts with e.g. e-mail, WWW) and at the same time protects the internal network (LAN) from … [Read more...]
What is a Bastion Host
A bastion host, sometimes also known as a jump server or jump host, is a server that provides services for the public Internet or untrusted networks (for example, large non-segregated intranet environments) or accesses the public Internet as a proxy or mail server and therefore needs special protection against attacks.

The terminology is somewhat misleading because it is about extracting knowledge from already existing data and not about generating data itself. Previously, we have pointed out the Different Tasks of Data Mining and Data Mining Issues. This article … [Read more...]
