The First IIPSEC exhibition offered security folk
a chance to meet and think in terms of other sectors
- such as IT and building management - before,

'Is
Building Systems Nirvana Closer Than We Think?'
"There is an old joke about a tired traveler
who asks a country bumpkin the way to the nearest
inn. "If I were you," says the bumpkin, "I wouldn't
start from here". Engineers rarely have the luxury
of choosing the starting point for the design of
a product or system..." |

SMT, Feb ed.,
first episode 'The

of what is coming by projecting the impact of events
that have already happened..." |

SMT, Jan ed.,
'Analogue
Vs Digital' "In the vast majority
of cases where digital technology can take over
from analogue, the process is well underway and
in many cases almost complete. In the vast majority
of sectors, analogue systems and products are regarded
as old-fashioned and are actually obsolete. But
in the security industry, the reliance on analogue
still persists and new multi-million pound security
systems based on analogue technology are still being
specified and purchased..." |

Professional
Security, Feb ed., 'Three
Steps for Building Heaven' "How
sad it is to see a prestigious building with the
clean lines of its marble-clad walls 'uglified'
by the ironmongery of a CCTV camera, housing and
pan-and-tilt mechanism. Who is to blame? Is it the
security manager for ignoring the original aesthetics
or the architect for not foreseeing the need for
such systems? Maybe we are all just victims of today's
need for increased security..." |
