About Novell Research

Novell Research is a program through which Novell publishes technical
information about designing, implementing, and managing NetWare-based
systems. Publications produced by Novell Research include NetWare
Application Notes and Novell Research Reports.

Novell Research publications are written by Novell consultants and
engineers, with the help of outside industry experts when necessary.
The information contained in these publications is based on lab
research and actual field experience of the authors, covering topics
in these main areas:

o    Network design and optimization strategies
o    Network management tactics
o    NetWare internals and theory of operations
o    Novell product implementation guidelines
o    Integration solutions for third-party products
o    NetWare programming techniques

This information is designed to benefit Novell's technical audience
consisting of systems engineers, support engineers, consultants,
programmers, network managers, and information systems personnel.

Novell's Systems Research Department in Provo, Utah, serves as home to
Novell Research. However, the name "Novell Research" and the program
represent all of Novell's geographic locations and business units.

NetWare Application Notes

NetWare Application Notes (AppNotes) is published monthly by Novell.
Each issue contains several articles that address different aspects of
working with NetWare, including design, implementation, development,
and optimization. The material is based on technical research
performed by Novell personnel.

Novell Research Reports

Novell Research Reports are in-depth treatments of key technical
issues such as network backup and security. These reports also
represent technical research performed by Novell personnel. 
Cooperative research projects are planned for topics of general
interest for which Novell cannot produce strategic research without
outside assistance.
