- Description: One of the major problems facing schools in South Africa is the difficulty in obtaining modern, up-to-date computer facilities. This paper looks at the use of open source solutions in two government schools in South Africa to demonstrate that it is possible for schools to utilise almost any existing computer to provide effective network solutions.

- Description: Many applications need the ability to do real-time notification when events occur. Often the people who need to be kept aware of events are in a remote location. This paper looks at a bi-directional gateway between networked computers and the GSM short message service. The gateway is implemented as a web service, and uses the Simple Object Access Protocol to facilitate data communication. The service interacts with a database in order to facilitate retrieval of sent or received messages, as well as provide accounting abilities. It is intended as a practical proof-of-concept application demonstrating some ofdemonstrating some of the capabilities of the Simple Object Access Protocol.

- Description: Many standards aimed at managing networks currently exist, and yet networks remain notoriously difficult to maintain. Template-based management systems go a long way towards solving this problem. By developing an XML based language to describe network elements, as well as the topology of a network, we can create tools that are free from vendor specific idiosyncrasies, and are capable of managing both today’s networks and those of the future.
