Learn How to Program Using Your Web Browser

"Learn How to Program Using Your Web Browser" is intended for readers of any age who want to learn how to program. It assumes no prior knowledge on the part of the reader, and there are no requirements for software purchase or installation beyond what is available on any contemporary computer. The software used for teaching programming will be JavaScript, which can be written using any text editor, and displayed in almost any Web browser, regardless of operating system. Despite the unfortunate word "script" in the language name, in actuality JavaScript is a modern programming language. Learn How to Program will teach the basics of programming using JavaScript. While displaying the results of running JavaScript programs in Web pages will be used to motivate readers - a simple example is changing text when the user moves the mouse over it in a Web page - very emphatically this is not a book about programming JavaScript. It is a book about general principles of good programming practice for complete novices. The target reader is likely a twelve or thirteen year old, who is just starting to get curious about what makes a computer work - or an office worker who has been using computer applications for years, and would like to spend some time delving deeper into what makes them tick.

Process Improvement Essentials:CMMI, Six SIGMA, and ISO 9001

* The 9001:2000 Quality Management Standard from the International Standards Organization;
* The Capability Maturity Model Integration from the Software Engineering Institute; and
* Six Sigma, a methodology for improvement shaped by companies such as Motorola, Honeywell, and General Electric.

Today, technology has become too much a part of overall corporate success for its effectiveness to be left to chance. The stakes are too high. Fortunately, the idea of "quality management" is being reinvigorated. In the last decade process programs have become more and more prevalent. And, out of all the available options, three have moved to the top of the chain. These three are:

These recognized and proven quality programs are rising in popularity as more technology managers are looking for ways to help remove degrees of risk and uncertainty from their business equations, and to introduce methods of predictability that better ensure success.
Software Process Improvement Essentials combines the foundation needed to understand process improvement theory with the best practices to help individuals implement process improvement initiatives in their organization. The three leading programs: ISO 9001:2000, CMMI, and Six Sigma–amidst the buzz and hype–tend to get lumped together under a common label. This book delivers a combined guide to all three programs, compares their applicability, and then sets the foundation for further exploration. It"s a one-stop-shop designed to give you a working orientation to what the field is all about.

Project Management with the IBM(R) Rational Unified Process(R): Lessons From The Trenches

This is the definitive guide to managing software development projects with the IBM Rational Unified Process (RUPÂ®). Drawing on his extensive experience managing projects with the RUP, R. Dennis Gibbs covers the entire development lifecycle, from planning and requirements to post-mortems and system maintenance. Gibbs offers especially valuable insights into using the RUP to manage outsourced projects and any project relying on distributed development teamsâ€“outsourced, insourced, or both.

Document Engineering : Analyzing and Designing Documents for Business Informatics and Web Services

Document Engineering : Analyzing and Designing Documents for Business Informatics and Web Services

Much of the business transacted on the Web today takes place through information exchanges made possible by using documents as interfaces. For example, what seems to be a simple purchase from an online bookstore actually involves at least three different business collaborations — between the customer and the online catalog to select a book; between the bookstore and a credit card authorization service to verify and charge the customer’s account; and between the bookstore and the delivery service with instructions for picking up and delivering the book to the customer. Document engineering is needed to analyze, design, and implement these Internet information exchanges. This book is an introduction to the emerging field of document engineering.

The authors, both leaders in the development of document engineering and other e-commerce initiatives, analyze document exchanges from a variety of perspectives. Taking a qualitative view, they look at patterns of document exchanges as components of business models; looking at documents in more detail, they describe techniques for analyzing individual transaction patterns and the role they play in the overall business process. They describe techniques for analyzing, designing, and encoding document models, including XML, and discuss the techniques and architectures that make XML a unifying technology for the next generation of e-business applications. Finally, they go beyond document models to consider management and strategic issues — the business model, or the vision, that the information exchanged in these documents serves.

The Art of Error Correcting Coding provides a comprehensive coverage of the basic techniques of error concealment. It addresses the need for selecting, implementing and simulating algorithms for the encoding and decoding of codes used for error correction and detection. This practical approach uses simple and easy to follow numerical examples to describe the basic concepts of a particular coding or decoding scheme. Basic analysis tools are provided throughout to help in the assessment of the error performance block and convolutional codes of a particular Error Correcting Coding (ECC) scheme for a selection of the basic channel models.
* Provides a complete treatment of important decoding algorithms including errors-and-erasures decoding of BCH and Reed-Solomon codes for any set of consecutive zeros and any length
* Describes Viterbi decoding and the key implementation issues
* Includes soft-output decoding algorithms, MAP, log-MAP, Max-log-MAP, belief propagation and ordered statistics
* Discusses new reliability-based algorithms such as GMD and the Chase algorithm with soft outputs
* Examines turbo codes, both serially and parallel concatenated, as well as low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes and their iterative decoders
* Features a companion website providing computer programs written in C language, to help understanding and implementing basic ECC techniques
This volume provides an indispensable tool for understanding and applying ECC techniques in transmission and storage of digital information. Engineers, computer scientists and graduate students alike, will all benefit from such a practical introductory approach.
