Carbon Capture and Storage in International Energy Policy and Law identifies the main contemporary regulatory requirements, challenges and opportunities involving CCS from a comparative and interdisciplinary perspective. It draws on the scholarship of renowned researchers across the fields of international energy law and policy to address CCS regulation and its impact on climate change, sustainable development, and related consequences for energy transition. In this vein, the book aims to address issues related to energy, energy justice and climate changes (including CCS technology). Contributors discuss the main challenges and advantages concerning international energy and the forms CCS may contribute to energy security, climate change, adaptation and mitigation of GHG emissions and sustainable development. In this light, the book discusses CCS as a bridge that integrates international energy, climate change and sustainable development. - Covers contemporary regulatory command-and-control and market incentive instruments across the local, regional and/or international spheres in-depth and in comparison - Reviews deregulatory impacts, modern financing of CCS, liability of the involved parties, and pertinent environmental issues - Addresses sociotechnical aspects of CCS and its specific impact on the international arena - Discusses the interplay of carbon capture and storage, renewables and the overall energy transition, current pathways to sustainable development

This book studies storage policies in warehousing systems and maintenance-support strategies for critical operational systems in warehouses, which are the most important issues affecting operational efficiency of warehousing systems. It expands on the theory of class-based storage by considering a finite number of items in store, and also introduces the maintenance-support strategy founded on performance-based contract theory. It is a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners and engineers in the fields of industrial engineering, operations management, operations research and management science.

Policy-based replication is the successor to Remote Copy for providing replication services for IBM Storage FlashSystem, IBM SAN Volume Controller, and IBM Storage Virtualize for version 8.5.2 and later. This new management model uses volume groups and replication policies to enable the system to automatically deploy and manage replication. This significantly simplifies the tasks that are associated with configuring, managing, and monitoring replication. Compared to Remote Copy, policy-based replication replicates data between systems with minimal overhead, significantly higher throughput, and reduced latency characteristics. This IBM Redpaper publication provides a broad understanding of policy-based replication and step-by-step implementation details. This paper is intended for use by pre-sales and post-sales technical support and storage administrators.
