Praise for IT Best Practices

"The work of the financial manager revolves around a company's financial systems. Ms. Roehl-Anderson's latest offering addresses the two key aspects of these systems—how to buy and install them. The book covers every conceivable aspect of these systems, including ERP, software...

Programming Interactivity: A Designer's Guide to Processing, Arduino, and openFrameworks

O'Reilly, 2009

This is a book about creating physical interaction with computer systems. It focuses on designing hardware and programming for systems that use either physical input or physical feedback. This book has been a dream of mine since I was an art student beginning to create interactive installations and finding that there was no simple...

Data Dissemination in Wireless Computing Environments (Advances in Database Systems)

Springer, 2000

In our increasingly mobile world the ability to access information on demand at any time and place can satisfy people's information needs as well as confer on them a competitive advantage. The emergence of battery-operated, low-cost and portable computers such as palmtops and PDAs, coupled with the availability and exploitation of wireless...

Executive's Guide to Web Services (SOA, Service-Oriented Architecture)

John Wiley & Sons, 2003

Executives must continually seek to grow revenue, reduce costs, and improve operating efficiencies. Today, Web services are emerging as a critical technology for achieving these business objectives. Early adopters are deploying Web services as an integration platform to reduce costs. Web services are being used to improve the operating...

Partisan

HarperCollins, 1945

I am deeply grateful to Second Lieutenant Denvir for giving me the opportunity to write this book, and for his patient and good-natured submission to a cross-examination lasting many weeks. My thanks are due also to Mrs Denvir, whose hospitality made this cross-examination so much easier for all of us, and to Major-General HK...

Secure Coding in C and C++

Addison Wesley, 2005

"The security of information systems has not improved at a rate consistent with the growth and sophistication of the attacks being made against them. To address this problem, we must improve the underlying strategies and techniques used to create our systems. Specifically, we must build security in from the start, rather than append...
