Identity crisis
Article Abstract:
Digital signatures enable the authentication of documents using a wide array of distinct identifiers and established authorities. They have two main components, namely, public key encryption and secure hashing. Certain directories provide the recipients with the public key that is used to encrypt the messages, which, in turn, is decrypted using a private key. A secure hash makes the messages unique. By hashing the document received and comparing the results with the document's hash, recipients can determine whether the document has been changed.

Bringing The Outdoors In
Article Abstract:
The new headquarters of Tampa Electric Co. has earned an Honarable Mention as one of Office Administration and Automation's 1982 'Offices of the Year.' The building was designed with energy conservation as one of the foremost considerations. The interior was planned to be eighty per cent open for workstations. The building has a Xerox Ethernet local area network but OA equipment has not been selected yet. The expectation is to be fully automated by the end of the decade. Photographs of the building's interior and exterior are included.

How HSBC has spread its shares around the world
Article Abstract:
HSBC Holdings PLC's global Savings-Related Share Option Scheme enables employees to own company shares by making salary-deducted contributions to a savings society. The offering, which HSBC employees readily availed of, proves that employees around the world are naturally interested in owning company stocks. The company's options scheme was perceived to be better than that which US firms have adopted since employees are likely to appreciate the limited resources available to them.
