Overview of component creation
This chapter provides an overview of component design and the process of writing
components for Delphi applications. The material here assumes that you are familiar
with Delphi and its standard components.

An Introduction To Cryptography
Chapter 1, “The Basics of Cryptography,” provides an overview of the
terminology and concepts you will encounter as you use PGP products.
Chapter 2, “Phil Zimmermann on PGP,” written by PGP’s creator, contains
discussions of security, privacy, and the vulnerabilities inherent in any
security system, even PGP.
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.
the book provides many solved examples that illustrate the principles involved,
and includes, in addition, two chapters that deal exclusively with applications of
unconstrained and constrained optimization methods to problems in the areas of
pattern recognition, control systems, robotics, communication systems, and the
design of digital filters. For each application, enough background information
is provided to promote the understanding of the optimization algorithms used
to obtain the desired solutions.
The book consists of three sections. The first, foundations, provides a tutorial overview of the principles underlying data mining algorithms and their application. The presentation emphasizes intuition rather than rigor. The second section, data mining algorithms, shows how algorithms are constructed to solve specific problems in a principled manner. The algorithms covered include trees and rules for classification and regression, association rules, belief networks, classical statistical models, nonlinear models such as neural networks, and local memory-based models. The third section shows how all of the preceding analysis fits together when applied to real-world data mining problems. Topics include the role of metadata, how to handle missing data, and data preprocessing.
The i-mode service by NTT DoCoMo is a mobile phone service in Japan that provides its
customers with both voice and comprehensive data services. With an i-mode phone, users can
exchange i-mode e-mail and obtain information from i-mode menu sites and i-mode compatible
Internet sites.
The i-mode phone contains a browser that displays i-mode compatible HTML web pages.
Beginning with the 505i phones, you can view Macromedia Flash Lite movies from the i-mode
browser. You can also use the phones’ My Picture and Standby Screen applications to view Flash
Lite movies. Although a number of manufacturers produce 505i phones, all of them support the
same Flash Lite functionality.
This application provides much functionality for creating data-driven reports, including preview, graphics, and formatting. There is no documentation so you may have to work with it awhile, but there is a demo on how to use it, and the functionality is rich.
