UCD Teams
Published in Brian Still, Kate Crane, Fundamentals of User-Centered Design, 2017
At a company Brian worked for some years ago, the technology team was in search of a new server administrator. The hiring committee, including Brian, had narrowed down a larger list of applicants to three finalists. The last of these finalists to be interviewed had previously done some contract work for the company, and he also knew the technology manager. You could say that, given this, he had an inside edge to getting the position.
Encoding and Distributing Live Webcasts
Published in Joe Follansbee, Hands-On Guide to Windows Media, 2012
The most common method of connecting an encoder with a server is pull, because it works fine with most network situations. With this method, the server establishes the connection with the encoder and distributes the streams to players. You configure pull distribution in the Windows Media Server Administrator, as discussed in following sections. (All examples in this chapter use the pull method.)

As of the time of this writing, hyperjacking is a threat that has been proven in the lab but not seen in the wild. Nevertheless, it has occupied a great deal of server administrator attention since 2011. Fortunately, the problem is easily described and prevented through straightforward processes.
A feminist server stack: co-designing feminist web servers to reimagine Internet futures
Published in CoDesign, 2022
Typically, feminist web server collectives consist of womxn who have a personal interest in migrating to less commercialised, measured, and observed platforms. These are communities of designers, artists, critical theorists, feminist economists, nurses, blockchain researchers, software developers, and commons-oriented researchers. Conceived from within grassroots activist movements, feminist server subcultures provide resources, tools, and support to womxn to learn to use alternatives to proprietary software and build and maintain their own computer networks for further development within broader communities and possibly become (their own) Internet Service Provider (ISP) web server administrator. Most engagements in feminist server groups are constructed upon vetted participation, in which each member is collectively encouraged to contribute, according to her skills and wills, sharing the password, writing documentation, coordinating meetings, submitting programme modifications, translations, and spreading the word.
