    Abstract: Python is fast becoming the programming language of choice for hackers, reverse engineers, and software testers because it's easy to write quickly, and it has the low-level support and libraries that make hackers happy. But until now, there has been no real manual on how to use Python for a variety of hacking tasks. You had to dig through forum posts and man pages, endlessly tweaking your own code to get everything working. Not anymore. Gray Hat Python explains the concepts behind hacking tools and techniques like debuggers, trojans, fuzzers, and emulators. But author Justin Seitz goes beyond theory, showing you how to harness existing Python-based security tools - and how to build your own when the pre-built ones won't cut it. You'll learn how to: Automate tedious reversing and security tasks Design and program your own debugger Learn how to fuzz Windows drivers and create powerful fuzzers from scratch Have fun with code and library injection, soft and hard hooking techniques, and other software trickery Sniff secure traffic out of an encrypted web browser session Use PyDBG, Immunity Debugger, Sulley, IDAPython, PyEMU, and more The world's best hackers are using Python to do their handiwork. Shouldn't you?

    Abstract: Software Oriented Architecture, or SOA, has become embraced by many organizations as a means of improving reusability of software assets; providing better alignment between business and IT; and, increasing agility for responding to demands in the marketplace. This is accomplished by breaking individual units of functionality into services that can then be exposed through open protocols and standards. Until recently, many of the software technologies used for developing SOA-based solutions were limited to expensive, commercial offerings. However, that has now changed, and a compelling open source SOA platform can be implemented exclusively with open source products. This book identifies a suite of open source products that can be used for a building SOA environment, and describes how they can be integrated by practitioners. It includes a hands-on introduction to the products selected; a multitude of source code examples; and implementation through real-life case studies. "A survival guide in the complex landscape of open source SOA." -Alberto Lagna, whitebox.it "An invaluable guide ... excellent examples." -Rick Wagner, Acxiom Corp. "The in-depth comparisons of various open source SOA products are worth the price of the book." -Peter Johnson, Unnisys "... applicable to any SOA project, regardless of the platform." -Irena Kennedy, Microsoft "Practical SOA solution that integrates key open source technologies." -Doug Warren, Java Web Services

    Abstract: APPLIED SECURITY VISUALIZATION "Collecting log data is one thing, having relevant information is something else. The art to transform all kinds of log data into meaningful security information is the core of this book. Raffy illustrates in a straight forward way, and with hands-on examples, how such a challenge can be mastered. Let's get inspired." -Andreas Wuchner, Head of Global IT Security, Novartis Use Visualization to Secure Your Network Against the Toughest, Best-Hidden Threats As networks become ever more complex, securing them becomes more and more difficult. The solution is visualization. Using today's state-of-the-art data visualization techniques, you can gain a far deeper understanding of what's happening on your network right now. You can uncover hidden patterns of data, identify emerging vulnerabilities and attacks, and respond decisively with countermeasures that are far more likely to succeed than conventional methods. In Applied Security Visualization , leading network security visualization expert Raffael Marty introduces all the concepts, techniques, and tools you need to use visualization on your network. You'll learn how to identify and utilize the right data sources, then transform your data into visuals that reveal what you really need to know. Next, Marty shows how to use visualization to perform broad network security analyses, assess specific threats, and even improve business compliance. He concludes with an introduction to a broad set of visualization tools. The book's CD also includes DAVIX, a compilation of freely available tools for security visualization. You'll learn how to: • Intimately understand the data sources that are essential for effective visualization • Choose the most appropriate graphs and techniques for your IT data • Transform complex data into crystal-clear visual representations • Iterate your graphs to deliver even better insight for taking action • Assess threats to your network perimeter, as well as threats imposed by insiders • Use visualization to manage risks and compliance mandates more successfully • Visually audit both the technical and organizational aspects of information and network security • Compare and master today's most useful tools for security visualization Contains the live CD Data Analysis and Visualization Linux (DAVIX). DAVIX is a compilation of powerful tools for visualizing networks and assessing their security. DAVIX runs directly from the CD-ROM, without installation. ...

    Abstract: Software practitioners are rapidly discovering the immense value of Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs) in solving problems within clearly definable problem domains. Developers are applying DSLs to improve productivity and quality in a wide range of areas, such as finance, combat simulation, macro scripting, image generation, and more. But until now, there have been few practical resources that explain how DSLs work and how to construct them for optimal use. Software Language Engineering fills that need. Written by expert DSL consultant Anneke Kleppe, this is the first comprehensive guide to successful DSL design. Kleppe systematically introduces and explains every ingredient of an effective language specification, including its description of concepts, how those concepts are denoted, and what those concepts mean in relation to the problem domain. Kleppe carefully illuminates good design strategy, showing how to maximize the flexibility of the languages you create. She also demonstrates powerful techniques for creating new DSLs that cooperate well with general-purpose languages and leverage their power. Completely tool-independent, this book can serve as the primary resource for readers using Microsoft DSL tools, the Eclipse Modeling Framework, openArchitectureWare, or any other DSL toolset. It contains multiple examples, an illustrative running case study, and insights and background information drawn from Kleppe's leading-edge work as a DSL researcher. Specific topics covered include Discovering the types of problems that DSLs can solve, and when to use them Comparing DSLs with general-purpose languages, frameworks, APIs, and other approaches Understanding the roles and tools available to language users and engineers Creating each component of a DSL specification Modeling both concrete and abstract syntax Understanding and describing language semantics Defining textual and visual languages based on object-oriented metamodeling and graph transformations Using metamodels and associated tools to generate grammars Integrating object-oriented modeling with graph theory Building code generators for new languages Supporting multilanguage models and programs This book provides software engineers with all the guidance they need to create DSLs that solve real problems more rapidly, and with higher-quality code.

    Abstract: Achieve Breakthrough Productivity and Quality with MDD and Eclipse-Based DSLs Domain-specific languages (DSLs) and model-driven development (MDD) offer software engineers powerful new ways to improve productivity, enhance quality, and insulate systems from rapid technological change. Now, there's a pragmatic, start-to-finish guide to creating DSLs and using MDD techniques with the powerful open source Eclipse platform. In Eclipse Modeling Project , Richard C. Gronback illuminates both the principles and techniques software professionals need to master, offering insights that will be invaluable to developers working with any tool or platform. As coleader of the Eclipse Modeling Project, Gronback is singularly well-positioned to demonstrate DSLs and MDD at work in Eclipse. Gronback systematically introduces each of the Eclipse technologies that can be used in DSL and MDD development. Throughout, he introduces key concepts and technologies in the context of a complete worked example and presents new best practices and never-before published techniques. He also covers Eclipse projects discussed in no other book, including Query/View/Transformation (QVT) and the Graphical Modeling Framework (GMF)-a project the author personally leads. Eclipse Modeling Project gives software practitioners all the knowledge they need to explore the remarkable potential of DSLs and MDD-and includes coverage of Why a model-based approach enables the rapid customization of high-quality solutions within the product line paradigm How the Eclipse Modeling Project's capabilities can be used to efficiently create new DSLs Powerful techniques for developing DSL abstract syntax, graphical notation, and textual syntax How to build Model-to-Model (M2M) and Model-to-Text (M2T) transformations-including a powerful new M2M implementation of the Object Management Group's QVT Operational Mapping Language (OML) Efficiently packaging and deploying DSLs with Eclipse Complete reference sections for the Graphical Editing Framework (GEF), GMF runtime and tooling, QVT OML, Xpand, and more Foreword xix Preface xxi Acknowledgments xxiii About the Author xxv Part I: Introduction 1 Chapter 1: Introduction 3 Chapter 2: Modeling Project as a DSL Toolkit 17 Part II: Developing Domain-Specific Languages 27 Chapter 3: Developing a DSL Abstract Syntax 29 Chapter 4: Developing a DSL Graphical Notation 55 Chapter 5: Developing a DSL Textual Syntax 227 Chapter 6: Deve...

    Abstract: As the cellular world and the Internet converge, mobile networks are transitioning from circuit to packet and the Internet Protocol (IP) is now recognized as the fundamental building block for all next-generation communication networks. The all-IP vision provides the flexibility to deliver cost-effective services and applications that meet the evolving needs of mobile users. RF engineers, mobile network designers, and system architects will be expected to have an understanding of IP fundamentals and how their role in delivering the end-to-end system is crucial for delivering the all-IP vision that makes the Internet accessible anytime, anywhere. IP Design for Mobile Networks discusses proper IP design theory to effectively plan and implement your next-generation mobile network so that IP integrates all aspects of the network. The book outlines, from both a standards and a design theory perspective, both the current and target state of mobile networks, and the technology enablers that will assist the migration. This IP transition begins with function-specific migrations of specific network domains and ends with an end-to-end IP network for radio, transport, and service delivery. The book introduces many concepts to give you exposure to the key technology trends and decision points affecting today's mobile operators. The book is divided into three parts: Part I provides an overview of how IP is being integrated into mobile systems, including radio systems and cellular networks. Part II provides an overview of IP, the technologies used for transport and connectivity of today's cellular networks, and how the mobile core is evolving to encompass IP technologies. Part III provides an overview of the end-to-end services network based on IP, including context awareness and services. Presents an overview of what mobile networks look like today-including protocols used, transport technologies, and how IP is being used for specific functions in mobile networks Provides an all-inclusive reference manual for IP design theory as related to the broader application of IP for mobile networks Imparts a view of upcoming trends in mobility standards to better prepare a network evolution plan for IP-based mobile networks This book is part of the Networking Technology Series from Cisco Press®, which offers networking professionals valuable information for constructing efficient networks, understanding new technologies, and building successful careers. ciscopress.com

    Abstract: Einführungen in MySQL gibt es viele. Wer aber größere MySQL-Server betreut, die verlässlich laufen müssen, egal was Programmierer oder Benutzer auf sie loslassen, der braucht weiter reichende Informationen. In High Performance MySQL beschreiben sechs anerkannte Experten mit langjähriger Erfahrung auf großen Systemen alle Stellschrauben, an denen MySQL-Admins drehen können, um Sicherheit, Performance, Datenintegrität und Robustheit zu erhöhen. Von Profis für Profis Hier geht es nicht um kleine Webauftritte mit Datenbankanbindung! Lernen Sie stattdessen fortgeschrittene Techniken kennen, mit denen Sie MySQLs Potenzial voll ausreizen können -- um große, skalierbare Systeme zu entwerfen, zu optimieren und zu sichern. Behandelt werden Benchmarking, Indizes, Storage-Engines, Replikationen, Lastverteilung und Hochverfügbarkeit, Backups, Sicherheit... und zu jedem Aspekt die richtigen Werkzeuge, mit denen sich Ihre Ziele am besten realisieren lassen. Praxiserprobt muss es sein Der eine ist MySQL-Guru bei Yahoo!, der andere Angestellter Nr. 25 bei MySQL AB und dort nacheinander für das MySQL-Manual, die Trainingskurse und die Entwicklung des Supports zuständig, wieder ein anderer war bei MySQL AB im High-Performance-Team - die Autoren dieses Buchs wissen, wovon sie sprechen. Graue Theorie finden Sie woanders, hier geht es um bewährte Techniken aus der Praxis. Ein Klassiker wird runderneuert Die erste Auflage von "High Performance MySQL" wurde hoch gelobt und hat schon unzähligen Lesern wertvolle Dienste geleistet. Nun war es an der Zeit, dieses anerkannte Handbuch einmal komplett zu aktualisieren, um nützliches Referenzmaterial zu erweitern, neue Features der Versionen MySQL 5.0 und 5.1 zu ergänzen und zahlreiche Themen wie die Optimierung der Storage-Engine InnoDB zu vertiefen. "Im Meer der MySQL-Literatur findet man so viel konzentriertes Know-how, das deutlich über Selbstverständlichkeiten hinausgeht, nicht allzu häufig." Linux-Magazin , November 2008, zur engl. Originalausgabe

    Abstract: Design Patterns bieten Lösungsmuster für häufig auftretende Entwurfsaufgaben in der Software-Entwicklung, aber sie gelten als schwer verständlich und als sehr theoretisch. Dieses Buch wird Sie davon überzeugen, dass Design Patterns für den Programmieralltag überaus nützlich sind und durchaus praxisnah und verständlich vermittelt werden können. PHP Design Patterns zeigt Ihnen, wie Sie Software mit Entwurfmustern so konzipieren, dass sie modernen Standards entspricht, zukunftssicher ist und sich problemlos erweitern lässt, wenn sich die Anforderungen ändern. Design Patterns für die Praxis: Stephan Schmidt erläutert zunächst einige allgemeine Regeln des guten Software-Designs, um dann alle klassischen Design Patterns detailliert vorzustellen und anhand von Praxisbeispielen Schritt für Schritt zu implementieren. Für die 2. Auflage seines Bestsellers hat er alle Neuerungen der PHP-Version 5.3 berücksichtigt und außerdem den Design-Patterns-Katalog noch einmal deutlich erweitert. Enterprise-Patterns - Fokus auf Webanwendungen: Da PHP häufig für Webanwendungen eingesetzt wird, liegt hier einer der Schwerpunkte dieses Buchs: Der Autor zeigt, wie Websites anhand des Schichtenmodells sinnvoll aufgebaut werden und in welcher Form hier Enterprise-Patterns zum Einsatz kommen. Behandelt werden in diesem Zusammenhang auch Propel und die Template-Engine patTemplate . Crashkurs zur Programmierung mit PHP 5.3: Falls Sie noch nicht mit allen objektorientierten Features von PHP 5 oder den Neuerungen der Version 5.3 vertraut sind, bietet Ihnen dieses Buch vorab einen Crashkurs, der Ihnen Sprachkonstrukte wie Interzeptoren, Exceptions und die Standard PHP Library sowie Namespaces und Closures erläutert.

    Abstract: Mule is the most widely used open source ESB-with millions of downloads- providing an alternative to expensive commercial options. Mule in Action is a comprehensive tutorial designed for working Java developers. This authoritative book explores the architecture and the main features of version Mule 2 through numerous running examples. It starts with a quick overview of ESB technology and a bit of Mule history-including the key changes between Mule 1.x and Mule 2. Readers learn to configure Mule and then get straight to the good stuff-putting Mule to work. Because the core of an ESB system is handling message traffic, the book dives into the way Mule handles data with chapters on sending and receiving, routing, and transforming data. Next, it takes a close look at Mule's standard components and how you can roll out custom ones. The book closes with a set of chapters on the nuts and bolts of working with Mule. Readers can take Mule farther by learning techniques for testing, performance tuning, BPM orchestration, and even a touch of Groovy scripting.

    Abstract: Web 2.0 applications are best known for providing a rich user experience, but the parts you can't see are just as important-and impressive. Many Web 2.0 applications use powerful techniques to process information intelligently and offer features based on patterns and relationships in the data that couldn't be discovered manually. Successful examples of these Algorithms of the Intelligent Web include household names like Google Ad Sense, Netflix, and Amazon. These applications use the internet as a platform that not only gathers data at an ever-increasing pace but also systematically transforms the raw data into actionable information. Algorithms of the Intelligent Web is an example-driven blueprint for creating applications that collect, analyze, and act on the massive quantities of data users leave in their wake as they use the web. You'll learn how to build Amazon- and Netflix-style recommendation engines, and how the same techniques apply to people matches on social-networking sites. See how click-trace analysis can result in smarter ad rotations. With a plethora of examples and extensive detail, this book shows you how to build Web 2.0 applications that are as smart as your users.

    Keywords: Python (Computer program language) ; Microsoft .NET Framework ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: In 2005, Microsoft quietly announced an initiative to bring dynamic languages to the .NET platform. The starting point for this project was a .NET implementation of Python, dubbed IronPython. After a couple years of incubation, IronPython is ready for real-world use. It blends the simplicity, elegance, and dynamism of Python with the power of the .NET framework. IronPython in Action offers a comprehensive, hands-on introduction to Microsoft's exciting new approach for programming the .NET framework. It approaches IronPython as a first class .NET language, fully integrated with the .NET environment, Visual Studio, and even the open-source Mono implementation. You'll learn how IronPython can be embedded as a ready-made scripting language into C# and VB.NET programs, used for writing full applications or for web development with ASP. Even better, you'll see how IronPython works in Silverlight for client-side web programming. IronPython opens up exciting new possibilities. Because it's a dynamic language, it permits programming paradigms not easily available in VB and C#. In this book, authors Michael Foord and Christian Muirhead explore the world of functional programming, live introspection, dynamic typing and duck typing , metaprogramming, and more. IronPython in Action explores these topics with examples, making use of the Python interactive console to explore the .NET framework with live objects. The expert authors provide a complete introduction for programmers to both the Python language and the power of the .NET framework. The book also shows how to extend IronPython with C#, extending C# and VB.NET applications with Python, using IronPython with .NET 3.0 and Powershell, IronPython as a Windows scripting tool, and much more.

    Abstract: For web developers used to wrestling with Java and XML, Grails is a breath of fresh air. Developers are instantly productive, picking up all the benefits of the Ruby-based Rails framework without giving up any of the power of Java. Grails in Action is a comprehensive look at Grails for Java developers. It covers the nuts and bolts of the core Grails components and is jam-packed with tutorials, techniques, and insights from the trenches. The book starts with an overview of Grails and how it can help you get your web dev mojo back. Then it walks readers through a Twitter-style social networking app-built in Grails, of course-where they implement high-interest features like mashups, AJAX/JSON, animation effects, full text search, rounded corners, and lots of visual goodness. The book also covers using Grails with existing Java technology, like Spring, Hibernate, and EJBs.

    Abstract: In object-oriented programming, a central program normally controls other objects in a module, library, or framework. With dependency injection, this pattern is inverted-a reference to a service is placed directly into the object which eases testing and modularity. Spring or Google Guice use dependency injection so you can focus on your core application and let the framework handle infrastructural concerns. Dependency Injection explores the DI idiom in fine detail, with numerous practical examples that show you the payoffs. You'll apply key techniques in Spring and Guice and learn important pitfalls, corner-cases, and design patterns. Readers need a working knowledge of Java but no prior experience with DI is assumed.

    Abstract: The emotional-trigger research you conducted revealed critical, sophisticated and powerful insights that provided a valuable roadmap to the successful turnaround of our company." -Pamela Forbes Lieberman, former CEO, True Value Company "The research you conducted for us has provided insights that have driven major changes in our business that have been critical to our continuing growth and success." -Stephen D. Judge, former President, Rapp Collins Worldwide-Dallas The motivations customers act on are seldom logical, predictable, or even conscious. Instead, their strongest responses stem from one source: emotion. It's a deceptively simple reality. But it permanently changes the way organizations must go about understanding their customers. Why Customers Really Buy introduces emotional-trigger research, a revolutionary new approach that uncovers the core, unfiltered, and spontaneous triggers that drive customer sales. Traditional market research is outmoded and counterproductive because old methods measure rather than inform. They generate predictable answers that confirm preconceived assumptions. Emotional-trigger research is a powerfully different method that gets to the heart of what companies need to know. Based on an indirect approach that features provocative questions, insightful listening, and in-depth conversations, the results are more spontaneous and enlightening. This book equips sales and marketing professionals with: * The keys to solving the mystery of how customer decisions are really made * Twelve real-world case studies illustrating how emotional-trigger research solved many of the most pressing sales/marketing challenges companies confront * Twelve universal sales/marketing lessons revealed through emotional-trigger research and how to apply those lessons to diverse industries Why Customers Really Buy reveals how customers emotionally connect with a product or service, and goes to the very root of how to craft winning solutions to reach them. Linda Goodman and Michelle Helin are independent business consultants who have served as senior sales and marketing officers for Fortune 500 corporations within the hospitality, entertainment, and retail sectors.

    Abstract: Virtually all job hunting experts agree that networking is the best way to find a great job. But most people don't have connections to the decision makers who do the hiring. And "networking" books, which are mostly written by and for salespeople, suggest aggressive tactics, often confusing these with real networking. They focus on building a powerful network over the course of a lifetime. But when you need a new job, you don't have time to build a huge, powerful network. You've got to use the network you already have.

    Abstract: Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) networks have freed users from the tyranny of big telecom, allowing people to make phone calls over the Internet at very low or no cost. But while VoIP is easy and cheap, it's notoriously lacking in security. With minimal effort, hackers can eavesdrop on conversations, disrupt phone calls, change caller IDs, insert unwanted audio into existing phone calls, and access sensitive information. Hacking VoIP takes a dual approach to VoIP security, explaining its many security holes to hackers and administrators. If you're serious about security, and you either use or administer VoIP, you should know where VoIP's biggest weaknesses lie and how to shore up your security. And if your intellectual curiosity is leading you to explore the boundaries of VoIP, Hacking VoIP is your map and guidebook. Hacking VoIP will introduce you to every aspect of VoIP security, both in home and enterprise implementations. You'll learn about popular security assessment tools, the inherent vulnerabilities of common hardware and software packages, and how to: Identify and defend against VoIP security attacks such as eavesdropping, audio injection, caller ID spoofing, and VoIP phishing Audit VoIP network security Assess the security of enterprise-level VoIP networks such as Cisco, Avaya, and Asterisk, and home VoIP solutions like Yahoo! and Vonage Use common VoIP protocols like H.323, SIP, and RTP as well as unique protocols like IAX Identify the many vulnerabilities in any VoIP network Whether you're setting up and defending your VoIP network against attacks or just having sick fun testing the limits of VoIP networks, Hacking VoIP is your go-to source for every aspect of VoIP security and defense.

    Abstract: Grow a Greener Data Center A guide to building and operating energy-efficient, ecologically sensitive IT and Facilities infrastructure Conventional Data Centers can have a huge impact upon the environment, using massive amounts of energy and water, emitting pollutants, and discarding huge quantities of machine waste. Their insatiable demand for energy and often inefficient designs make Data Centers expensive to operate and prime targets for future environmental regulation. Fortunately, it's now possible to design a Data Center that consumes fewer resources, costs less money to run, has a longer usable lifespan, and can even highlight a company's social responsibility. Grow a Greener Data Center shows how. Douglas Alger makes the business case for greening Data Centers and presents technologies, design strategies, and operational approaches to help any company improve the energy efficiency and "eco-friendliness" of their IT hosting environments. He provides multiple strategies for "greening" each phase of a new Data Center project-selecting a site, designing and building the facility, and choosing hardware-as well as tips for retrofitting an existing server environment. Alger explores IT and facilities technology areas as well as broader green building practices, including building material selection, electrical system design, use of alternative energy, cooling system design, cabling media choices, fire suppression options, water conservation practices, landscaping strategies, recycling programs, e-waste management, and more. Explores how to green each phase of your Data Center project including site selection, physical design, construction, and hardware selection Offers green strategies for all Data Center technologies including power, cooling, cabling, fire suppression, and virtualization Presents IT and facilities design (and retrofitting) strategies that can save hundreds of thousands of dollars per year in energy costs Reveals financial incentive programs to help pay for green Data Center initiatives Outlines Data Center efficiency metrics and environmental building assessment systems used worldwide to rate how green a facility is Highlights the lessons of dozens of case studies and real-world installations pertaining to energy efficiency, green building projects, and Data Center technologies Addresses broader green business practices including proper e-waste disposal, water conservation, and fostering alternative transportation Related Ti...

    Abstract: Log4j has been around for a while now, and it seems like so many applications use it. I've used it in my applications for years now, and I'll bet you have too. But every time I need to do something with log4j I've never done before I find myself searching for examples of how to do whatever that is, and I don't usually have much luck. I believe the reason for this is that there is a not a great deal of useful information about log4j, either in print or on the Internet. The information is too simple to be of real-world use, too complicated to be distilled quickly (which is what most developers want) and/or not very well written and hard to understand. The purpose of this Short Cut is to hit the "sweet spot" that no other works currently do: the right balance between simplicity and useful information. The code for this Short Cut is available at the code example repository .

    Abstract: Microsoft Silverlight 2 is a new development platform designed to make the development of rich Internet applications (RIAs) far easier than has previously been possible. Pro Silverlight for the Enterprise addresses the question of how you can bring Silverlight 2 to your company to provide rich Internet experiences that will interface cleanly with your existing application architecture. The book begins with a clear discussion of why Silverlight is such a good choice for developing RIAs and the implications that this has for your development decisions. The options available will be demonstrated by constructing a simple web-based training portal for a fictional enterprise, which will be extended and altered to demonstrate the techniques and methods that you have available to you. This includes accessing data using WCF and LINQ, and considering how best to deploy your finished Silverlight application when it is complete. The book also discusses the future of Silverlight for mobile and how to plan for its release. This book is unique in that it focuses on how Silverlight can be applied in today's business environment rather than simply delving into the product's syntax and grammar in isolation. Silverlight is discussed in context with consideration given to security, scalability, and deployment. As such this book makes an excellent addition to any Silverlight library and extends your knowledge into practical areas that are rarely discussed.

    Abstract: This book is a compilation of advanced ActionScript 3.0 animation techniques for any user creating games, user interaction, or motion control with ActionScript. It's an anthology of topics that follow from the author's earlier book, Foundation ActionScript 3.0 Animation: Making Things Move , and things that became possible in version 10 of Flash Player. This book covers a diverse selection of topics that don't necessarily lead one into the other. You don't need to start with Chapter 1 and read it cover to cover. Just start with any chapter that looks interesting and jump around as you see fit. In this book, you'll find chapters on advanced collision detection, artificial intelligence and steering behaviors, isometric projection, using the camera and microphone for input, 3D, and much, much more. AdvancED ActionScript 3.0 Animation is also more experimental in nature. The techniques shown here might not be the best way to do things, but they should work well and get you started in your own efforts to achieve a perfect implementation. In fact, many of the chapters can be seen as introductions to very complex topics that could fill a whole book by themselves. Many of these subjects have been extensively covered elsewhere, but not necessarily targeted for Flash or ActionScript 3.0. So it took a fair amount of work to pull the data together and get it all working and explain it all clearly in ActionScript. This book will inspire you to find out about subjects that you might not have considered before, acting as a springboard into your own research into the possibilities of ActionScript 3.0.

    Abstract: "Using Microsoft Excel 2007's built-in VBA scripting capabilities, serious Excel users can potentially save dozens - or even hundreds - of hours per year. But most Excel users have never truly mastered VBA scripting, and many don't have time to read a book on the subject. That's where VBA and Macros for Microsoft Excel (Video LiveLessons) comes in. In more than 60 bite-sized, self-contained video lessons, Bill Jelen ('MrExcel') helps Excel users master all the scripting techniques they need to automate virtually any repetitive Excel task - and gives them specific answers and solutions for their scripting problems immediately, whenever they need them. He begins by introducing Excel's simple built-in macro recorder, explaining what it can and can't do, and walking through the code it produces. Next, he introduces Microsoft Excel's powerful VBA editor and debugging tools, and shows how to write the crucial code that can't be created automatically by the macro recorder. One step at a time, viewers will discover how to use loops, variables, ranges, flow control, and more. Next, Jelen puts it all together with start-to-finish case study applications, and introduces advanced techniques that automate everything from filters to PivotTables, user input to error and event handling."--Resource description page.

    Abstract: Web 2.0 is more pervasive than ever, with business analysts and technologists struggling to comprehend the opportunity it represents. So what exactly is Web 2.0 -- a marketing term or technical reality? This fascinating book finally puts substance behind the phenomenon by identifying the core patterns of Web 2.0, and by introducing an abstract model and reference architecture to help you take advantage of them. In Web 2.0 Architectures , authors Duane Nickull, Dion Hinchcliffe, and James Governor -- who have 40 years of combined experience with technical specifications and industry trends -- examine what makes successful Web 2.0 services such as Google AdSense, Flickr, BitTorrent, MySpace, Facebook, and Wikipedia work. The result is a base of knowledge that developers, business people, futurists, and entrepreneurs can understand and use as a source of ideas and inspiration. This book reveals: A Web 2.0 model: How the classic Client-Server model evolved into a more detailed Web 2.0 model. Web 2.0 reference architecture: A generic component view of basic Web 2.0 patterns that can be repurposed for other commercial ventures. Specific Web 2.0 patterns: How service oriented architecture (SOA), Software as a Service (SaaS), participation-collaboration, mashups, rich user experience, collaborative tagging systems (Folksonomy), and more can be used in your business. If you want to understand what makes Web 2.0 tick, and how it will enhance your business, Web 2.0 Architectures takes you right to the core.
