This book focuses primarily on XML itself. It covers the fundamental rules that all XML documents and authors must adhere to, whether a web designer uses SMIL to add animations to web pages or a C++ programmer uses SOAP to exchange serialized objects with a remote database. This book also covers generic supporting technologies that have been layered on top of XML and are used across a wide range of XML applications.
The Wifidog project is an open source captive portal solution. It was designed primarily for wireless community groups, but caters to various other business models as well. If you have questions about the wifidog project, they may be answered in the FAQ. You may also be interested in seeing some of the community wireless groups, WISP s, universities, and private businesses currently using Wifidog across the globe.
HTML Parser is a Java library used to parse HTML in either a linear or nested fashion. primarily used for transformation or extraction, it features filters, visitors, custom tags and easy to use JavaBeans. It is a fast, robust and well tested package.
GNU Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical
computations. It provides a convenient command line interface for
solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically.
The Inter IC bus or I2C bus is a simple bidirectional two wire bus designed primarily for general control
and data transfer communication between ICs.
Some of the features of the I2C bus are:
• Two signal lines, a serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL), and ground are required. A
12V supply line (500mA max.) for powering the peripherals often may be present.
• Each device connected to the bus is software addressable by a unique address and simple
master/ slave relationships exist at all times masters can operate as master-transmitters or as
master-receivers.
• The I2C bus is a true multi-master bus including collision detection and arbitration to prevent data
corruption if two or more masters simultaneously initiate data transfer systems.
• Serial, 8-bit oriented, bidirectional data transfers can be made at up to 100 KBit/s in the standard
mode or up to 400 KBit/s in the fast mode.
As a general rule, PhD students and their supervisors tend to focus
primarily, or even exclusively, on the content of the research that will
go into the doctoral thesis. Other issues are often taken for granted:
how to organize your work, give a presentation, work in a team, cope
with your supervisor, and how to effectively manage your time.When
asked, former PhD students usually claim that the general experience
of being a graduate student, which includes learning how to solve
complex problems and work well with others, was of greater value to
their careers than the actual topic of their thesis.
