    Abstract: Service-oriented architecture (SOA) is one of the most important topics on the agenda of any IT person. SOA involves a new vision of how to design, develop, and manage applications. It also has new requirements when building an architecture for the underlying infrastructure. This IBM Redbooks publication is the result of a project managed in the IBM European Design Center, based in Montpellier, France. The scope of the project involved helping a major worldwide customer in the automotive industry to validate and justify an SOA implementation. In particular, the customer wanted to add new business values to work with its partners, by adding new data models. It also wanted to modernize an infrastructure, by adding new Internet interfaces. The customer faced the need to eradicate an obsolete programming language. Furthermore, it wanted to build a smooth migration path, with as few risks and costs as possible. The thought, planning, and architecture of the new system, which included integration of the SOA concepts, was built by the customer with the participation of Atos Origin, a leading international IT services provider. The existing customer IT infrastructure was already built around UNIX systems, IBM System z, non-IBM clusters, SAP solutions, 3270 screens, IMS-DL/I databases, and specific code. SOA was the right solution to connect this existing environment to new components using Java, Web services, and DB2 in particular. This book explores the business needs and the architectural choices that were faced by the customer. It describes the mock-ups and prototypes, provides performance numbers that were used to validate the decisions, and explains how they were implemented. It also suggests a generic and riskless solution to eradicate the obsolete programming language.

    Abstract: How you begin and end a training course is vital and shouldn't be left to chance. This manual introduces easy-to-use "openings" and "closings" that can increase the cohesiveness of your group, create a relaxed atmosphere and enhance the learning experience – whether you are new to this type of exercise or not. The book contains 70 icebreakers, energizers and other exercises the authors have tested on the training front lines – including 40 "beginnings" and 30 "endings." Each exercise includes these at-a-glance sections: Content indicates the type of group the exercise is useful for; Purpose clarifies further objectives for the exercise; Materials lists pens, paper and other materials you will need; Method contains your instructions as the trainer; Suggested Explanation guides you in what you might say about the exercise to the group; Variations describe other ways the basic exercise can be used; Pitfalls describe dangers to watch out for. Two matrix indexes – one for beginnings and one for endings – make it easy to find just the right exercise for your situation. With Compendium of Icebreakers, you can be sure to choose appropriate exercises for your desired objective, ask participants to only do things that are reasonable, be clear about the purpose and outcome of each exercise and be sensitive to individual differences.

This environment is based on service-oriented architecture (SOA) and solutions that support business process automation. This book provides the detailed information about multiple ways for building SOA-based solutions around the System i platform. The discussion in the book covers the server and client side implementations that include: - ProgramCall in IBM Toolbox for Java - Host Access Transformation Services (HATS) - DB2 Web services - PHP - IBM Web Services Client for ILE - Java-Server Faces (JSF) Parts of the book are appropriate for CIOs, system architects, and application developers.

    Abstract: Is your sales team stuck in a rut? Would you like to get them fired up about bringing in new customers and selling more? 25 Sales Strategies and Activities is a unique training and development tool designed to teach sales professionals how and when to use a variety of proven sales strategies. The guide presents 25 strategies and activities in terms of two critical selling factors: Relationships – how the customer perceives you as a supplier based on past experience and interactions; Performance – what you as a supplier actually deliver to the customer. A diagnostic sales strategy matrix shows how much each strategy emphasizes both relationship and performance. A relationship performance index further classifies the strategies as highest, higher, moderate, lower, lowest. Each strategy comes with an activity that clears up any question about how the strategy should be implemented. Each activity includes fully reproducible exhibits which can be used as exercises and handouts in training sessions. Rather than a one-time training tool, 25 Sales Strategies and Activities is a useful and practical guide your employees will refer to over and over again. It's packed with a wealth of insight, tips and guidance for motivating sales people.

    Abstract: The Personality Code clearly and persuasively demonstrates how personality determines why we do what we do and how we can maximize our strengths, work smarter with others, and profit from better relationships in our careers. Based on the IDISC(tm) Personality Profile-an updated and rigorously validated proprietary version of DISC, the world's most popular form of personality testing-the book provides insights and strategies for individuals and organizations that promote self-awareness and foster excellence. Listeners will have free access to the online IDISC(tm) Personality Profile (each book includes a unique code number), which will reveal their own profiles from among the fourteen personality types that have been refined and defined through the author's six-year international study involving more than five hundred thousand participants. Travis Bradberry shows readers how to discern the fixed characteristics that explain three-quarters of human behavior. Most important, they will learn how to leverage these traits in order to capitalize on their strengths and sidestep weaknesses in themselves as well as in other people.

    Abstract: The secrets to success in business aren't secrets at all. They're obvious, so obvious that they've mostly been taken for granted or ignored-until now. We've all read the business allegories, the "how I did it" success stories, and yes, there's good advice to be found in their pages. But nowhere is the advice as pure, as simple, as elegant, as it is in The Obvious. Former CEO James Dale has compiled ingenious words to live by, lucid truths as likely to be found in a fortune cookie as an MBA textbook. And the beauty of it is, regardless of the job-from sales rep to department head to CEO-the same principles yield the same results, and they're always effective. While all of Dale's advice is, well, obvious, it's implementation isn't. In The Obvious, Dale shares ways in which any businessperson can carry out these simple lessons and achieve success. -Show up. -Don't be a jerk. -Simple is better than complicated. -Tell the truth. (It's so rarely used, it's like a secret weapon.) -Bosses are not all idiots. -Don't look backward. There's nothing there. -Forgive and forget (or at least one out of two). -Trust someone besides yourself. -Start over tomorrow, but don't do it the same way. Entertaining, compelling, and commonsensical, The Obvious is all you need to know. Period.

    Abstract: Today's computing environment is subject to increasing regulatory pressures and potentially malicious attacks. Regulatory compliance, security, and audit are in the daily headlines and growing more prominent.The security of the information to which you have been entrusted has never been more critical. The reality of compliance is too complex. Compliance demands that you work carefully to set up a strong, comprehensive set of policies and controls. That means controls that consider operational data, financial data, unstructured data, spreadsheets, e-mail, and business intelligence data. We have a responsibility to secure all business data and especially sensitive customer data. Security can be difficult to manage. IBM DB2 for z/OS already resides on one of the most secure platforms in the industry. IBM System z servers are routinely used by enterprises around the world to support their mission-critical applications. The mainframe's strengths in security stem in part from its history of supporting sensitive data for large enterprises, resulting in security features being built into its design for many decades. It also benefits from a system-wide approach with security capabilities built into the hardware, operating systems, databases, key middleware and more. Its highly evolved layers and security management components give it a fundamental advantage over other systems.

    Abstract: Because RAW files remain virtually untouched by in-camera processing, working with them has given digital photographers greater flexibility and control during the editing process -- for those who are familiar enough with the format. Camera RAW, the plug in for Adobe Photoshop CS3, has emerged as one of the best and most familiar tools for editing RAW images, and the best way to master this workflow is with Photoshop CS3 RAW . Award-winning author Mikkel Aaland explores the entire RAW process, from the practical reasons to shoot RAW, to managing the images with the new features of Bridge 2.0 navigation software, to processing your images with the new power of Adobe Camera RAW 4 and Photoshop CS3.

    Abstract: A database administrator (DBA) has a challenging job trying to maintain databases in today’s nonstop 24x7 environments. This challenge is compounded by the complexity of database structures and the time pressure of trying to be up again as soon as possible without making mistakes. When business expands, several DB2 subsystems have to be maintained, such as multiple development systems, function test, acceptance test, volume test, and production systems. Often changes have to be implemented across multiple DB2 subsystems. The two IBM DB2 for z/OS tools that help database administrators to implement database changes are the DB2 Administration Tool and the DB2 Object Comparison Tool. In this IBM Redbooks publication we show how, with Version 7.2, the two tools offer an enhanced Change Management function to manage and track the changes of your DB2 objects. We show how the tools help you define changes, resolve conflicts, register the changes, analyze the changes to generate a work statement list that applies the changes, and then run the changes in the correct order. The Change Management functions also allow you to back out completed changes and facilitate the management of a convenient audit trail. This book contains a major update to the Change Management functions described in DB2 for z/OS Tools for Database Administration and Change Management, SG24-6420-01.

Google provides all of the expensive infrastructure, IT management, mail servers, chat system, administrative tools, etc., to create an extranet at no cost to you.

It discusses configuration options that are both domain- wide and user specific. It also covers what you'll need to do to migrate an existing domain to Google Apps.

    Abstract: What makes the net great is also precisely what makes it so dangerous. The virtual world is becoming so similar to the real one that some think the overt laws, or at least agreed-upon rules, may be necessary for the Net to survive in its current open form. If the internet can be ruined by everything from criminals to overzealous politicians responding to those criminals, then how can it be saved? We explore this issue in Release 2.0: Issue 3. Other topics in this issue: Listening to Lawrence Lessig - The man who started it all considers hard, thinks hard, and worries hard - about what code and the law can do. Open APIs Aren't Open Source - Six lessons for developers From Audience to Producer - It may not be news to you, but it's news to someone.

    Abstract: This book provides a comprehensive practical treatment of the modelling of electrical power systems, and the theory and practice of fault analysis of power systems covering detailed and advanced theories as well as modern industry practices. The continuity and quality of electricity delivered safely and economically by today’s and future’s electrical power networks are important for both developed and developing economies. The correct modelling of power system equipment and correct fault analysis of electrical networks are pre-requisite to ensuring safety and they play a critical role in the identification of economic network investments. Environmental and economic factors require engineers to maximise the use of existing assets which in turn require accurate modelling and analysis techniques. The technology described in this book will always be required for the safe and economic design and operation of electrical power systems. The book describes relevant advances in industry such as in the areas of international standards developments, emerging new generation technologies such as wind turbine generators, fault current limiters, multi-phase fault analysis, measurement of equipment parameters, probabilistic short-circuit analysis and electrical interference. *A fully up-to-date guide to the analysis and practical troubleshooting of short-circuit faults in electricity utilities and industrial power systems *Covers generators, transformers, substations, overhead power lines and industrial systems with a focus on best-practice techniques, safety issues, power system planning and economics *North American and British / European standards covered

    Abstract: Everything changes after Release 1.0. The consultants leave; key developers get reassigned to new projects, and the wild and free environment of development gets replaced by change review boards and defect reports. And the public starts beating on the system. Your application needs to be ready to live in that environment--without you. Out in the real world, your system may have to endure the huge traffic spikes of a Slashdot posting, or a sudden influx of international customers in the middle of the night, or enjoy such popularity that you can't even take it down for maintenance. Other books on design and architecture only tell you how to meet functional requirements. They help your software pass Quality Assurance. But painful experience has shown that "feature complete" is not even close to"production ready." With a combination of case studies and practical advice, Release It! will help you avoid the pitfalls that cost companies hundreds of thousand--sometimes millions--of dollars.

    Abstract: Stuart Greenbaum and Anjan Thakor bring a unique analytical approach to the subject of banks and banking in this completely revised and updated new edition. They expand the scope of the typical bank management course by addressing all types of deposit-type financial institutions and by explaining the why of intermediation rather than simply describing institutions, regulations, and market phenomena. This analytic approach strikes at the heart of financial intermediation by explaining why financial intermediaries exist and what they do. Specific regulations, economies, and policies will change, but the underlying philosophical foundations remain the same. This approach enables students to understand the foundational principles and to apply them to whatever context they encounter as professionals. "This book is the perfect liasion between the microeconomics realm of information economics and the real world of banking and financial intermediation.

    Abstract: In the simplest terms, Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is a means by which unlike (or like) systems can communicate with one other despite differences between each system’s heritage. The goal of SOA is allow the owning enterprises to combine the functionality of these systems so they can apply the functions to their business needs. This book shows you how you can exploit z/TPF as a transaction server, participating in a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) structure alongside WebSphere Application Server. After introducing z/TPF and the technologies critical to SOA, we position z/TPF as a provider in an SOA by explaining SOAP processing, communication bindings, and eXtensible Markup Language (XML) on z/TPF. Next, we show an SOA implementation example with z/TPF and WebSphere Application Server and discuss the use of z/TPF and Web services from a client perspective. We conclude with a discussion of z/TPF in an open systems environment. The book is organized as follows: Part 1. Overview and introduction to z/TPF Part 2. z/TPF as a provider in a Service Oriented Architecture Part 3. A Service Oriented Architecture example with z/TPF and WebSphere Application Server Part 4. z/TPF and Web Services from a client perspective Part 5. z/TPF in an open systems environment Please note that the additional material referenced in the text is not available from IBM.

    Abstract: The LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT set includes a variety of powerful electronic parts (motors, sensors, and the programmable NXT microcomputer) and lots of building elements. With these parts you can create thousands of unique, intelligent robots. The Unofficial LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Inventor's Guide helps you to harness the capabilities of the NXT set and effectively plan, build, and program your own NXT robots. The first part of the book contains a brief introduction to the NXT set. You'll then examine the pieces in the NXT set and the roles they play in construction. Next, you'll learn practical building techniques, like how to build sturdy structures and work with gears. Then it's time to learn how to program with the official NXT-G programming language (and learn a bit about several unofficial programming languages). You'll also learn what author David J. Perdue calls the MINDSTORMS method: a strategy for creating your own robots. Finally, you'll follow step-by-step instructions for building, programming, and testing six sample robots (all of which can be built using only the parts found in one NXT set). These six robots include: Zippy-Bot, a two-wheeled vehicle with a ball caster Bumper-Bot, a version of Zippy-Bot that explores your room and avoids objects Claw-Bot, a version of Zippy-Bot that searches for objects and pushes them away with its claw Tag-Bot, a four-wheeled steering vehicle that dashes around while you try to "tag" it with a flashlight Guard-Bot, a six-legged walking robot that launches a ball at intruders Golf-Bot, a stationary robot that finds a target and then hits a ball into the target You'll also find an NXT-G Quick Reference, which provides information on the 30 types of standard programming blocks, and the LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Piece Library, which features detailed information and images of the more than 80 types of LEGO pieces in the NXT set. So go ahead. Grab your NXT set, fire up your creative mind, and see what you can invent with The Unofficial LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Inventor's Guide.

    Abstract: In a constant stream of new ideas, wireless technologies continue to emerge offering a range of capabilities, each affording simplicity and ease-of-use. Such diversity and choice should surely beg the question, “are manufacturers using the right technology for the right product?? Developing Practical Wireless Applications will explore this question and, in doing so, will illustrate many of the wireless technologies currently available whilst drawing upon their individual strengths and weaknesses. More specifically, the book will draw your attention to the diverse collection of standardized and proprietary solutions available to manufacturers. As developers and innovators your choices are not restricted to any norm and, as such, a standardized or proprietary solution may afford you greater benefits in realising any product roadmap. Developing Practical Wireless Applications will provide you with a comprehensive understanding of how each technology works, coupled with an exploration into overlapping, complementary and competing technologies. In establishing this foundation, we will explore wireless applications in their context and address their suitability. In contrast, the book also considers the practicality of a wireless world in an attempt to better understand our audience and specific demographic groups. Coupled with a richer understanding of our consumers, along with our technology make-up we can indeed target wireless products more effectively. *Explores techniques used to attack wireless networks including WarXing, WarChalking, BlueJacking, and BlueSnarfing *Discusses applications utilizing ZigBee, NFC, RFID, Ultra-Wideband and WirelessUSB (WiMedia) *Details Bluetooth 2.x +EDR and introduces the v3.0 (BToverUWB) specification *Includes fundamental introductions to WiFi, namely 802.11i, 802.11p and 802.11n *Compares personal-area and wide-area communications including 3G, HSDPA, 4G, and WiMAX, as well as introducing Wireless Convergence

    Abstract: The former creative director and co-CEO of Barneys joins forces with a celebrated twenty-eight-year-old marketing maverick to teach readers how to break through the clutter and achieve a relevant point of difference in this entertaining and imminently readable book. Cool isn't just a state of mind, a celebrity fad, or an American obsession-it's a business. Combining Gene Pressman's revolutionary creative vision with Noah Kerner's marketing expertise, Chasing Cool digs beneath the surface and reveals how emphasizing long-lasting relevance trumps a fleeting preoccupation with what's hot and what's not. Although other books have zeroed in on a single aspect of the cool factor, Chasing Cool expands the playing field by including interviews with business icons, in-depth research, and personal anecdotes. This stunning reference includes interviews with more than seventy of today's most respected luminaries, from Tom Ford and Russell Simmons to Richard Meier and Bonnie Fuller. In a multidimensional, entertaining, and imminently readable book that redefines how to appeal to today's savvy consumer, Pressman and Kerner explore the lessons to be learned by America's shortsighted search for the ever-popular concept of cool.

    Abstract: Whether we're talking about United States presidents, CEOs, Major League coaches, or wartime generals, leaders are remembered for their best and worst judgment calls. In the face of ambiguity, uncertainty, and conflicting demands, the quality of a leader's judgment determines the fate of the entire organization. That's why judgment is the essence of leadership. Yet despite its importance, judgment has always been a fairly murky concept. The leadership literature has been conspicuously quiet on what, exactly, defines it. Does judgment differ from common sense or gut instinct? Is it a product of luck? Of smarts? Or is there a process for making consistently good calls? Noel Tichy and Warren Bennis have each spent decades studying and teaching leadership and advising top CEOs such as Jack Welch and Howard Schultz. Now, in their first collaboration, they offer a powerful framework for making tough calls when the stakes are high and the right path is far from obvious. They show how to recognize the critical moment before a judgment call, when swift and decisive action is essential, and also how to execute a decision after the call. Tichy and Bennis bring their three-dimensional model to life with interviews with world-class leaders who have thrived or suffered because of their judgment calls.

    Abstract: An organization's ability to achieve strategic goals through programs and supporting projects depends on its ability to establish a future vision, set strategic goals, select the most valuable projects, and then execute flawlessly. Organizational strategic alignment is achieved by converting strategic plans and goals into a valuable portfolio of programs and supporting projects. Strategic project leaders and project teams execute the project plans to meet objectives and deliver project outcomes, adding value to the organization. As the role of the business analyst evolves and matures, senior business analysts will emerge as the key individuals in the organization who have the depth of business acumen and technological proficiency to serve as both business and technology experts. In this capacity, business analysts will become involved in an array of activities designed to devise a strategy to reach the organization's future business vision by achieving strategic goals. As the business analyst elevates into a leadership role as the business and technology strategist, he or she serves the executive team by facilitating, informing, and enabling the most favorable business decisions during the strategic planning and enterprise analysis phases of the business solution life cycle (BSLC). This book examines the emerging critical role of the business analyst during these first two phases of the BSLC.
