Unicode Demystified offers an in-depth introduction >to the encoding standard and provides the tools and >techniques necessary to create today's globally >interoperable software systems. An ideal complement to >specifics found in The Unicode Standard, this practical >guidebook brings the big picture of Unicode into practical >focus for the day-to-day programmer and the >internationalization specialist alike. >_________________________________ >Real-Time Design Patterns: Robust Scalable Architecture for >Real-Time Systems >Bruce Powel Douglass >http://www.awprofessional.com/titles/0201699567 > >Real-Time Design Patterns is the foremost reference for >developers seeking to employ this powerful technique. The >text begins with a review of the Unified Modeling Language >(UML) notation and semantics, and follows with an >introduction to the Rapid Object-Oriented Process for >Embedded Systems (ROPES) process and its key technologies. >Readers can then survey a catalog of design patterns and >their applications. The book's extensive problem-solving >templates, which draw on the author's years in the trenches, >will help readers find faster, easier, and more effective >design solutions. >_________________________________ >Documenting Software Architectures: Views and Beyond >Paul Clements, Felix Bachmann, Len Bass, David Garlan, >James Ivers, Reed Little, Robert Nord, Judith Stafford >http://www.awprofessional.com/titles/0201703726 > >Although architecture is now widely recognized as a critical >element in software development, there has been little >guidance independent of language or notation about how to >capture it. Based on the authors' extensive experience, >Documenting Software Architecture, helps you to decide what >information to document and then, with guidelines and >examples (in various notations, including UML), shows you >how to express an architecture in a form that everyone can >understand. If you go to the trouble to create a strong >architecture, you must also be prepared to describe it in >enough detail, without ambiguity, and to organize it so that >others can quickly find the information they need. >_________________________________ >Metrics and Models in Software Quality Engineering, Second >Edition >Stephen H. Kan >http://www.awprofessional.com/titles/0201729156 > >Metrics and Models in Software Quality Engineering, Second >Edition, is the definitive book on this essential topic of >software development. Comprehensive in scope with extensive >industry examples, it shows how to measure software quality >and use measurements to improve the software development >process. Four major categories of quality metrics and models >are addressed: quality management, software reliability and >projection, complexity, and customer view. In addition, the >book discusses the fundamentals of measurement theory, >specific quality metrics and tools, and methods for applying >metrics to the software development process. >_________________________________ >Building Web Applications with UML, Second Edition >Jim Conallen >http://www.awprofessional.com/titles/0201730383 > >This is a new edition of the widely acclaimed Building Web >Applications with UML. Based on the author's extensive >experience as a Web developer, it incorporates helpful >reader feedback, identifies and addresses modeling problems >unique to page-based Web applications, and offers practical >advice and straightforward solutions. Written for project >managers, architects, analysts, designers, and implementers, >Building Web Applications with UML, Second Edition, >demystifies the challenging aspects of modeling with the Web >Application Extension (WAE) for the Unified Modeling >Language. Because UML has been widely accepted as the >standard language for modeling software systems, it is >without question the best option for modeling Web >application designs. The WAE extends the UML notation with >semantics and constructs that empower you to model >Web-specific architectural elements using the Rational >Unified Process or an alternative methodology. >_________________________________ >Visual Modeling with Rational Rose 2002 and UML >Terry Quatrani >http://www.awprofessional.com/titles/0201729326 > >Fully updated and revised, Visual Modeling with Rational >Rose 2002 and UML is a comprehensive introduction and >tutorial that shows how to use a tool (Rational Rose 2002), >a process (the Rational Unified Process), and a language >(the UML) to successfully visualize, specify, document, and >construct a software system. This timely new edition, >written by the UML Evangelist at Rational Software >Corporation, breaks the technology down to its essentials >and provides clear explanations of each element. The book >follows a simplified version of the Rational Unified Process >from project inception through system analysis and design. >_________________________________ >Practical Storage Area Networking >Daniel Pollack >http://www.awprofessional.com/titles/0201750414 > >With its unique focus on the nuts and bolts of SAN >construction and operation, Practical Storage Area >Networking explores the full technology, from the more >common Fibre Channel SANs to cutting edge IP SANs, and >beyond. This book examines SAN design, integration, >maintenance, and security, highlighting best practices for >each. Its close attention to the ideal practices of SAN >implementation provides SAN builders with an invaluable >frame of reference that bridges the gap between concept and >deployment. Packed with extensive insights and >experience-based advice, Practical Storage Area Networking >will help you build and deploy a successful SAN on your >network. >_________________________________ >A Guide to Forensic Testimony: The Art and Practice of >Presenting Testimony as an Expert Technical Witness >Fred Chris Smith, Rebecca Gurley Bace >http://www.awprofessional.com/titles/0201752794 > >Information technology is an increasingly large factor in >legal proceedings. From large cases, such as the U.S. >Government's anti-trust suit against the Microsoft >Corporation, to small civil lawsuits filed over the failure >of a network, to criminal cases in which the authenticity of >electronic evidence is questioned, the testimony of a >technical expert is essential. But an understanding of the >technology in question is not enough; an expert technical >witness needs to understand much, much more in order to >ensure the effectiveness of his or her testimony. Written >by a computer security authority who has served as a >technical witness, and a trial attorney who has focused for >many years on how digital evidence and computer forensics is >altering litigation, A Guide to Forensic Testimony will arm >you with the tools you need to testify effectively. From a >basic understanding of the witness' responsibilities and >challenges, to a deeper exploration of what produces >successful technical testimony, this book is your guide to >the complicated forensic landscape that awaits an expert >technical witness. >_________________________________ >Impossible Data Warehouse Situations: Solutions from the >Experts >Sid Adelman, Joyce Bischoff, Jill Dych=E9, Douglas Hackney, >Sean Ivoghli, Chuck Kelley, David Marco, Larissa Moss, Clay >Rehm >http://www.awprofessional.com/titles/0201760339 > >A functional data warehouse is vital to an organization's >success, but building and maintaining any data warehouse is >fraught with managerial and technical pitfalls.
