Java Media APIs: Cross-Platform Imaging, Media, and Visualization presents integrated Java media solutions that demonstrate the best PRACTICES for using this diverse collection. According to Sun MicroSystems, "This set of APIs supports the integration of audio and video clips, animated presentations, 2D fonts, graphics, and images, as well as speech input/output and 3D models." By presenting each API in the context of its appropriate use within an integrated media application, the authors both illustrate the potential of the APIs and offer the architectural guidance necessary to build compelling programs.
Guide to the many features and functions of Spring
MVC, including tips and tricks to get the most out of this flexible framework. This book also contains
some best PRACTICES for developing well-designed and decoupled web applications.
Buses are a powerful and efficient modeling construct. Using them to produce optimal code is dependent on following a basic set of best PRACTICES. This document provides a set of patterns that can be followed the best results
Altera® provides various tools for development of hardware and software for embedded systems. This handbook complements the primary documentation for these tools by describing how to most effectively use the tools. It recommends design styles and PRACTICES for developing, debugging, and optimizing embedded systems using Altera-provided tools. The handbook introduces concepts to new users of Altera’s embedded solutions, and helps to increase the design efficiency of the experienced user.
Take a strategic approach to software construction—and produce superior products—with this fully updated edition of Steve McConnell s critically praised and award-winning guide to software development best PRACTICES.
This book has grown out of my teaching and research at the University of Surrey and out of
my previous experiences in companies such as Philips, Ascom and Motorola. It is
primarily intended for use by students in master’s level and enhanced final-year under-
graduate courses who are specialising in communication systems and wish to understand
the principles and current PRACTICES of the wireless communication channel, including both
antenna and propagation aspects
Never have telecommunications operations and network management been so
important. Never has it been more important to move away from PRACTICES that date
back to the very beginning of the telecommunications industry. Building and con-
necting systems internally at low cost, on an as - needed basis, and adding software
for supporting new networks and services without an overall architectural design
will not be cost effective for the future. Defi ning operations and network manage-
ment requirements at the 11th hour for new technologies, networks, and services
deployments must also change.
Changes in telecommunications are impacting all types of user
group, which include business users, traveling users, small and
home offices, and residential users. The acceptance rate of telecom-
munications and information services is accelerating significantly.
Voice services needed approximately 50 years to reach a very high
teledensity; television needed just 15 years to change the culture
and lives of many families; the Internet and its related services have
been penetrating and changing business PRACTICES and private com-
munications over the last 2 to 3 years.
Microengineering and Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have very few
watertight definitions regarding their subjects and technologies. Microengineering
can be described as the techniques, technologies, and PRACTICES involved in the
realization of structures and devices with dimensions on the order of micrometers.
MEMS often refer to mechanical devices with dimensions on the order of
micrometers fabricated using techniques originating in the integrated circuit (IC)
industry, with emphasis on silicon-based structures and integrated microelectronic
circuitry. However, the term is now used to refer to a much wider range of
microengineered devices and technologies.
