Book Description

Ajax and REST Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach will serve all of your Ajax needs, by providing adaptable solutions for common tasks you'll want to implement on web sites using the next generation of Ajax and REST techniques. As a JavaScript developer, your time is precious, so you'll want to solve problems that present themselves in your work as quickly as possible. You can pick up the code provided in this book, adapt it, or plug it straight into your own applications.

The book mainly focuses on illustrating and explaining how to build applications that use JavaScript, Ajax, and REST Web Services, along with some user interface issues. Specifically, the following topics are covered: implementing JavaScript unit tests; explaining the intent of Dynamic Languages, Web Services and SOA; defining and implementing contracts using REST; understanding why JavaScript Functions have state; implementing JavaScript "Generics", which are a mixture between real Generics and a replacement algorithm; using code blocks; using functions to make decisions; understanding the difference of JavaScript code that behaves like a value type or a reference type; implementing proxies, delegates, mixins, and overloaded functions; implementing a complete Ajax and Web Service architecture; defining a Web Service using REST; handling large or slow or real-time data sets; implementing shopping cart type architectures; and solving the back button problem using Ajax.

Having read this book you will learn how to modularize your web application by decoupling the client from the server. The decoupling allows a client developer to focus on writing the best JavaScript and Ajax code, and a server developer to write the best business and data objects.

Programming Perl

Book Details

Paperback: 1092 pages
Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc.; 3 edition (July 14, 2000)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0596000278
ISBN-13: 978-0596000271


Larry Wall wrote Perl and he wrote Programming Perl. Better yet, he writes amusingly and well--all of which comes across in this latest edition of the definitive guide to the language.
Like Topsy, Perl just grew, and as a result the need for a third edition came about. It's now over 1,000 pages, which it needs to be, as it performs several different duties. First, it's an introduction to the Perl language for those who are new to programming; also, it's a guide for those who are coming from other languages; and, finally, it's a Perl language reference.

Among Larry Wall's other pursuits is being a linguist, and it's perhaps for this reason that Perl is a peculiarly flexible language with many routes to achieving the same ends, as the authors ably demonstrate. It's also extensible in several ways, designed to work with many other languages. Also, as it's largely interpreted, programs written in Perl tend to run unmodified on a variety of platforms--although platform-specific Perl modules and programming practices are also discussed.

A major strength of Programming Perl is the way subject areas are approached from several directions. This constant shift of viewpoint eliminates blind spots in the reader's understanding and provides a pleasing echo of the way Perl itself can take many routes from here to there.

Because the Perl community is both knowledgeable and active, the language covers much more ground here than in the previous edition. Even if you have both previous editions, you'll want this latest version--if only for the new jokes. --Steve Patient, amazon.co.uk

Book Description
Perl is a powerful programming language that has grown in popularity since it first appeared in 1988. The first edition of this book, "Programming Perl," hit the shelves in 1990, and was quickly adopted as the undisputed bible of the language. Since then, Perl has grown with the times, and so has this book.

"Programming Perl" is not just a book about Perl. It is also a unique introduction to the language and its culture, as one might expect only from its authors. Larry Wall is the inventor of Perl, and provides a unique perspective on the evolution of Perl and its future direction. Tom Christiansen was one of the first champions of the language, and lives and breathes the complexities of Perl internals as few other mortals do. Jon Orwant is the editor of

"The Perl Journal," which has brought together the Perl community as a common forum for new developments in Perl.

Any Perl book can show the syntax of Perl's functions, but only this one is a comprehensive guide to all the nooks and crannies of the language. Any Perl book can explain typeglobs, pseudohashes, and closures, but only this one shows how they really work. Any Perl book can say that "my" is faster than "local," but only this one explains why. Any Perl book can have a title, but only this book is affectionately known by all Perl programmers as "The Camel."

This third edition of "Programming Perl" has been expanded to cover version 5.6 of this maturing language. New topics include threading, the compiler, Unicode, and other new features that have been added since the previous edition.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux & Fedora Core 4

Book Details
Paperback: 915 pages
Publisher: McGraw-Hill Osborne Media; 3 edition (August 22, 2005)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0072261544
ISBN-13: 978-0072261547


Book Description
The new edition of this best-selling reference offers complete coverage of all aspects of the Red Hat Fedora and Enterprise Linux distribution. Full details on everything from installation and configuration to system administration and server management of Enterprise Linux--with specifics on the Linux Kernel 2.6--are included. The new IPv6 Protocol, including the network security features of IPSEC and Virtual Private Networks, are also covered. The DVD contains the entire Red Hat Fedora Core distribution--normally available on multiple CD-ROMs.

From the Publisher
Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Fedora Core 4: The Complete Reference provides a comprehensive examination of all aspects of Fedora Core 4 Linux, including recent critical changes in administration such as device management, kernel configuration, and IPv6 support. In terms of coverage, The Complete Reference is currently the only true Fedora Core 4 book, providing coverage of key Fedora Core 4 and even Fedora Core 3 developments. Other books in this class either take a different more introductory approach, or simply fail to cover key Fedora Core 4 developments. Only in this book will you find in depth discussion of key administration changes such as automatic device generation with udev, the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL), and kernel header management. It still remains the only text in its class that covers IPv6 topics ranging from network address auto-configuration to DNS records. In addition, there is special focus on security tools, providing dedicated chapters on SELinux, IPsec, and GPG encryption. The book remains the only text in its class to discuss Kerberos, as well as provide detailed examination of RAID and LVM file systems. The Complete Reference also covers the latest inclusions like the Global File System, detailing the various packages you need to implement the system, as well as upcoming solutions like using the latest securitylevel development version to enable Windows share browsing on Gnome. Though comprehensive in its handling of administration topics, The Complete Reference deals just as thoroughly with user topics, with beginning chapters providing introductory material, along with in depth chapters on Gnome, KDE, and shell usage and configuration. Office, Database, Multimedia, and Internet applications like Firefox, including Windows access and video support, are also covered. Dedicated chapters examine Internet services like Web servers, proxies, DNS, and FTP. Both the publisher and author have made a special effort to provide the most up-to-date and comprehensive information on Fedora Core 4 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux, keeping readers informed of all the latest developments.

Programming Linux Games

Book Details
Paperback: 415 pages
Publisher: No Starch Press; 1 edition (August 2001)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 1886411492
ISBN-13: 978-1886411494


Book Description
Programming Linux Games discusses important multimedia toolkits (including a very thorough discussion of the Simple DirectMedia Layer) and teaches the basics of Linux game programming. Readers learn about the state of the Linux gaming world, and how to write and distribute Linux games to the Linux gaming community.

Book Info
(No Starch Press) Complete guide to developing Linux games, written by the Linux gaming experts. Softcover.

From the Publisher
A great operating system for programmers and system administrators, Linux is also a great gaming platform, and the market is exploding. Linux users want to do everything under Linux—including playing computer games. And the Linux operating system is fast even without a fast processor, which means that even an older machine can be a great Linux gaming machine.
Gaming will continue to drive the adoption of Linux as an operating system. In fact, one game, Quake, has already indirectly contributed to the growth of Linux. Estimates are that over 60 percent of all dedicated Quake servers (for all versions on the Internet) are Linux machines.



From the Author

I wrote Programming Linux Games for the casual Linux hobbyist who wants to learn about game programming, as well as the professional game programmer or multimedia engineer who would like to gain a familiarity with the Linux platform.

I start with a birds-eye view of the game industry, and explore the elements that make up various types of games. After a quick review of Linux development tools and multimedia programming toolkits, I launch into the Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL), several audio playback APIs (OSS, ALSA, and ESD), the OpenAL environmental audio system, the Tcl scripting library, Linux's new framebuffer device API (fbdev). I also explain how to access the keyboard and mouse under Linux. These tools provide everything you need to create games and other multimedia applications for Linux, as well as port games from other platforms.

Programming Linux Games does not cover 3D graphics programming techniques, as OpenGL programming is more or less the same under any platform. However, there is a brief explanation of how to use SDL as an improved replacement for the popular GLUT toolkit.

Bridges the gap between .NET and .NET Compact Framework development. The Compact Framework brings familiar .NET development to mobile devices. This technology enables millions of Microsoft programmers to develop Windows CE applications. Written by two Microsoft Compact Framework team members. The primary goal of .NET Compact Framework is to bring the familiar experience of developing .NET applications for the desktop to the device world. Of the approximately six million Microsoft desktop developers in the world, it is estimated that perhaps two hundred thousand will turn their attention to the device world using the enabling technology of the .NET Compact Framework. To facilitate the goal of showing readers how to develop applications for the .NET Compact Framework, the book contains in-depth treatment in the following topic areas: Windows Forms and Threading, Network Programming, ADO.NET Dataset, XML Serialization, SQL CE, Web Services, and performance management. Each concept is accompanied with a sample application that illustrates its implementation on the .NET Compact Framework. For the convenience of the reader, each sample application will be offered in both C# and Visual Basic. Developers can use this source code as a springboard for creating their own device side database applications. Erik Rubin and Ronnie Yates are both uniquely qualified to write this book as they are on the .NET Compact Framework team at Microsoft Corporation and their experiences include work on a number of integrated technologies such as XML, Web Services, and ADO.NET.

JBoss A Developer's Notebook

Book Details

Paperback: 172 pages
Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. (June 28, 2005)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0596100078
ISBN-13: 978-0596100070

Book Description

There's nothing ordinary about JBoss. What began as an open source EJB container project six years ago has become a fully certified J2EE 1.4 application server with the largest market share, competitive with proprietary Java application servers in features and quality. And with its dynamic architecture, JBoss isn't just a J2EE server. You can alter the services to make J2EE work the way you want, or even throw J2EE away completely.

After more than a million downloads, many JBoss users are no longer trying it out on internal test boxes, but rolling it out on production machines. JBoss: A Developer's Notebook takes you on a complete tour of JBoss in a very unique way: rather than long discussions, you will find code--lots of code. In fact, the book is a collection of hands-on labs that take you through the critical JBoss features step-by-step. You don't just read about JBoss, you learn it through direct practical application. That includes exploring the server's many configurations: from bare features for simple applications, to the lightweight J2EE configuration, to everything JBoss has in store-including Hibernate and Tomcat.

JBoss: A Developer's Notebook also introduces the management console, the web services messaging features, enhanced monitoring capabilities, and shows you how to improve performance. At the end of each lab, you'll find a section called "What about..." that anticipates and answers likely follow-up questions, along with a section that points you to articles and other resources if you need more information.

JBoss is truly an extraordinary application server. And we have an extraordinary way for you to learn it.

Advanced Linux Programming

Book Details
Paperback: 340 pages
Publisher: Sams (June 21, 2001)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0735710430
ISBN-13: 978-0735710436


Book Description

Advanced Linux Programming is divided into two parts. The first covers generic UNIX system services, but with a particular eye towards Linux specific information. This portion of the book will be of use even to advanced programmers who have worked with other Linux systems since it will cover Linux specific details and differences. For programmers without UNIX experience, it will be even more valuable. The second section covers material that is entirely Linux specific. These are truly advanced topics, and are the techniques that the gurus use to build great applications. While this book will focus mostly on the Application Programming Interface (API) provided by the Linux kernel and the C library, a preliminary introduction to the development tools available will allow all who purchase the book to make immediate use of Linux.



From the Publisher
Mark Mitchell, Alex Samuel, and Jeffrey Oldham are definitely some of the most talented authors I've had the pleasure of working with. Once you take a look at this book you'll see what I mean. This pre-published review of the book says it all: "As Linux becomes a more mainstream player in the internet infrastructure market, there is a tremendous need for lucid programming texts that also convey some of the philosophy behind the Linux and GNU movements.

Publisher: Addison Wesley (7 May 2002)
Language English
ISBN-10: 067232184X
ISBN-13: 978-0672321849


Book Description

.NET Framework Security contains security features of the .NET Framework and Common Language Runtime. The focus is on the new technologies introduced with .NET, with treatment of existing technologies as leveraged by .NET (but not those existing technologies themselves)

Synopsis
.NET Framework Security contains security features of the .NET Framework and Common Language Runtime. The focus is on the new technologies introduced with .NET, with treatment of existing technologies as leveraged by .NET (but not those existing technologies themselves)

From the Back Cover

In 1997, Microsoft embarked on a "bet the company" strategy that was to reinvent the way the company did business. Even before its release, .NET made major strides in reinventing the way that software developers viewed the software they wrote.

Now that it is released, .NET and the .NET Framework will change the software development process for good.

.NET Framework Security provides the ultimate high-end comprehensive reference to all of the new security features available in .NET. Through extensive code samples and step-by-step walkthroughs of configuration techniques, the reader is taken deep into the world of secure applications. Demonstrations of creating custom procedures and a full explanation of each aspect separate this book from many other "lecture books." Many of the concepts expressed in this book are not only viable in .NET, but on the Internet in general. These factors combined make this the one reference that every developer and system administrator should have.

.NET Framework Security provides

An extensive introduction to explanation of Code Access Security, the powerful new security system shipping in the .NET Framework
Information on how to write and test safe applications using the .NET Framework
Extensive coverage on how to effectively administer .NET Framework security
In-depth introduction to the cryptography library shipping in the .NET Framework, including an introduction to XML digital signatures
An overview of all of the new security features available in .NET
Code samples that can be used to implement security on your own Web site or application
Step-by-step guidelines for modifying the various configuration files associated with .NET, and an explanation of the elements involved
Instructions for all of the aspects of security in the CLR and what it means
How to use ASP.NET to create a secure application
Explanations for using the CryptoAPI libraries to create your own custom functionality
Guidelines on how to create secure network applications as well as applications that exist on the Internet
Detailed examples of how to establish security parameters in IIS that relate to ASP.NET
Instructions for administering .NET applications hosted in IE

BEA Weblogic(R) Server Bible

Book Details

Paperback: 1000 pages
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons; 1st edition (February 21, 2002)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0764548549
ISBN-13: 978-0764548543


From the Author
Our goal in writing this book was to create the most organized, approachable, and complete guide to WebLogic Server that money could buy. Stated another way, we wanted to write the book we wish we had when we were learning WebLogic Server, but also the book we wish we had once we became experts and needed more information.
To accomplish our goal, we wrote the entire book following a simple formula. Each chapter begins with a brief, theoretical explanation of the technology at hand, including how it fits into the J2EE framework, and how it is implemented in WebLogic Server. A basic coding exercise follows, showing how to write a small, complete Java class that uses the technology, and how to deploy and test the class using the WebLogic Console. This portion of the chapter is presented step-by-step, and contains lots of screen shots to guide novices along. The rest of each chapter covers advanced topics, and is written at a level suitable for intermediate to advanced developers. Functioning code is provided whenever possible, and is available for download from the book's Web site.

Early indications are that we succeeded. One BEA engineer calls the book "awesome.. the documentation we never had." And the developers in my company - WebLogic experts all - refer to the book almost on a daily basis.

Whether you're a WebLogic novice or expert, we think you'll get a lot out of this book, and it should pay for itself many times over in time saved learning and applying WebLogic Server. -- Joe Zuffoletto

Jython for Java Programmers

Product Details


Paperback: 496 pages
Publisher: Sams (December 28, 2001)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0735711119
ISBN-13: 978-0735711112



Robert Bill's Jython for Java Programmers from New Riders is an essential introduction to the complexities of the merger between two popular object-oriented languages, Python and Java. It is directed toward Java programmers who want to incorporate Python rather than vice versa, but the utter symmetry of merging two object-oriented languages creates an Escheresque problem in perspective. It is like two snakes gobbling each other up.
Let's sort this out historically. When Sun Microsystems' virtual machine (VM) paradigm emerged in the mid-1990s, the high-level programming language Java became the idiom for the new "soft" computer. Java's object-oriented architecture allowed it to scope from the lowest-level OS tasks (reads, writes to disk and screen), but much of the mid- and high-level tools were missing--e.g., common GUI features, text parsing, list sorting. The missing functionality is implemented gradually with nuts-and-bolts Java functions and by porting libraries to Java (GL4Java).

The cascade of "100 percent pure Java" ports has finally led to the gobbling up of the elegant Python scripting language, which is also object-oriented. But that is only half of the story. As Java devours Python, Python also devours Java. In one manifestation, Jython is Python written in Java rather than C. It has its own interpreter "jython" and compiler "jythonc," both of which can draw on all of Java's classes. Conversely, jythonc will create a Java class which can be imported by the Java interpreter "java" and compiler "javac." Java programmers will have the luxury of importing and using succinct Jython classes rather than writing the lines of verbose native Java code.

The bewildering complexities are elucidated by Bill in Jython for Java Programmers, which presents Jython both as a standalone, Java-equipped language and as the class implementation within Java. Its three parts are dedicated to Jython's basics (very similar to a Python tutorial), Jython's internals, and Jython's incorporation into GUI, database, and Web applications. The book follows in the New Riders tradition of exhaustive, implementation-centered publishing. Jython is not a Java foundation class, but Bill's book is a cornerstone in its own right. We also recommend Jython.org to help sort out Jython's big picture. --Peter Leopold

Verilog HDL A Guide to Digital Design and Synthesis

Book Details

Hardcover: 396 pages
Publisher: Prentice Hall PTR; Bk&CD-Rom edition (January 15, 1996)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0134516753
ISBN-13: 978-0134516752


From the Inside Flap

During my earliest experience with Verilog HDL, I was looking for a book that could give me a "jump start" on using Verilog HDL. I wanted to learn basic digital design paradigms and the necessary Verilog HDL constructs that would help me build small digital circuits, using Verilog and run simulations. After I had gained some experience with building basic Verilog models, I wanted to learn to use Verilog HDL to build larger designs. At that time I was searching for a book that broadly discussed advanced Verilog-based digital design concepts and real digital design methodologies. Finally, when I had gained enough experience with digital design and verification of real IC chips, though manuals of Verilog-based products were available, from time to time, I felt the need for a Verilog HDL book that would act as a handy reference. This book emphasizes breadth rather than depth. The book imparts to the reader a working knowledge of a broad variety of Verilog-based topics, thus giving the reader a global understanding of Verilog HDL-based design. The book leaves the in-depth coverage of each topic to the Verilog HDL language reference manual and the reference manuals of the individual Verilog-based products. This book should be classified not only as a Verilog HDL book but, more generally, as a digital design book. It important to realize that Verilog HDL is only a tool used in digital design. It is the means to an end- the digital IC chip. Therefore, this book stresses the practical design perspective more than the mere language aspects of Verilog HDL. With HDL-based digital design becoming popular, no digital designer can afford to ignore HDLs.


Who Should Use This Book...

The book is intended primarily for beginners and intermediate-level Verilog users. However, for advanced Verilog users, the broad coverage of topics makes it an excellent reference book to be used in conjunction with the manuals and training materials of Verilog-based products. The book presents a logical progression of Verilog HDL-based topics. It starts with the basics, such as HDL-based design methodologies, and then gradually builds on the basics to eventually reach advanced topics, such as PLI or logic synthesis. Thus, the book is useful to Verilog users with varying levels of expertise as explained below.


Students in logic design courses at universities Part 1 of this book is ideal for a foundation semester course in Verilog HDL-based logic design. Students are exposed to hierarchical modeling concepts, basic Verilog constructs and modeling techniques, and the necessary knowledge to write small models and run simulations.

New Verilog users in the industry Companies are moving to Verilog HDL- based design. Part 1 of this book is a perfect jump start for designers who want to orient their skills toward HDL-based design.

Users with basic Verilog knowledge who need to understand advanced concepts Part 2 of this book discusses advanced concepts, such as UDPs, timing simulation, PLI, and logic synthesis, which are necessary for graduation from small Verilog models to larger designs.


Verilog experts

All Verilog topics are covered, from the basics modeling constructs to advanced topics like PLIs and logic synthesis. For Verilog experts, this book is a handy reference to be used along with the reference manuals. The material in the book sometimes leans toward an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) design methodology. However, the concepts explained in the book are general enough to be applicable to the design of FPGAs, PALs, buses, boards, and systems. The book uses Medium Scale Integration (MSI) logic examples to simplify discussion. The same concepts apply to VLSI designs.


How This Book Is Organized:

This book is organized into three parts. Part 1, Basic Verilog Topics, covers all information that a new user needs to build small Verilog models and run simulations. Note that in Part 1, gate-level modeling is addressed before behavioral modeling. I have chosen to do so because I think that it is easier for a new user to see a 1-1 correspondence between gate- level circuits and equivalent Verilog descriptions. Once gate-level modeling is understood, a new user can move to higher levels of abstraction, like data flow modeling and behavioral modeling, without losing sight of the fact that Verilog HDL is a language for digital design and is not a programming language. Thus, a new user starts off with the idea that Verilog is a language for digital design. New users who start with behavioral modeling often tend to write Verilog the way they write their C programs. They sometimes lose sight of the fact that they are trying to represent hardware circuits by using Verilog. Part 1 contains nine chapters.

Part 2, Advanced Verilog Topics, contains the advanced concepts a Verilog user needs to know to graduate from small Verilog models to larger designs. Advanced topics such as timing simulation, switch-level modeling, UDPs, PLI, and logic synthesis are covered. Part 2 contains five chapters. Part 3, Appendices, contains information useful as a reference. Useful information, such as strength-level modeling, list of PLI routines, formal syntax definition, Verilog tidbits, and large Verilog examples is included. Part 3 contains six appendices.

Review

"Bhasker's book reveals a variety of situations where differences between simulation and synthesis semantics are bound to occur. These are carefully covered so that novice and experienced designers become aware of these hard to debug but, very common pitfalls" -- Carlos M. Roman, Bell Labs

"I find the book useful in illustrating examples of how the Verilog language may be used to design real and practical synthesizable models. It's also helpful that it warns the user of possible simulation/ synthesis mismatches. This clarifies the sim/syn issues for beginners." -- Jenjen Tiao, Lucent Technologies

"I've finished reading your book, I have to say I think you did an outstanding job ... I will be very comfortable recommending your book instead ... I really think this is your best book yet, good job!" -- Ken Coffman, VLSI designer

"Provides students and practicing logic designers with immediate access to well organized information about Verilog HDL synthesis. Easy to read and provides a large number of examples of synthesizable Verilog models" -- Vassilios Gerousis, Senior Staff Technologist, Motorola

"The book "A Verilog Synthesis Primer" is an excellent clear and concise guide for designing RTL synthesizable models in Verilog. It is an essential addition to design engineers' technical resourses." -- Douglas J. Smith, author of "HDL Chip Design."

"The example-driven driven approach used in the Verilog HDL Synthesis Primer makes it a valuable book for novice Verilog users." -- Egbert Molenkamp, University of Twente

"This book is ideally organized for teaching Verilog-based synthesis techniques, as it shows the reader not only what hardware results from various Verilog constructs, but how to tailor the Verilog to get the desired hardware. Copious pairings of examples with diagrams make clear the relationships between code and generated gates" -- Jim Vellenga, ViewLogic Systems

Book Description

With this book, you can:
- Start writing synthesizable Verilog models quickly.

- See what constructs are supported for synthesis and how these map to hardware so that you can get the desired logic.

- Learn techniques to help avoid having functional mismatches.

- Immediately start using many of the models for commonly used hardware elements described for your own use or modify these for your own application.
