Although the Web is growing at an astounding pace, surpassing the 8 billion page mark, most pages are still designed for human consumption and cannot be processed by machines.
In the second edition of this very successful book, Tony Sammes and Brian Jenkinson show how information held in computer systems can be recovered and how it may be deliberately hidden or subverted for criminal purposes.
Interoperability: the ability of a system or a product to work with other systems or products without special effort from the user is a key issue in manufacturing and industrial enterprise generally.
In any software design project, the analysis stage - documenting and designing technical requirements for the needs of users - is vital to the success of the project.
Distributed processing has a strong theoretical foundation, but many day-to-day practitioners make limited use of the advantages this theory can give them.
"e;Maturing Usability"e; provides an understanding of how current research and practice has contributed towards improving quality issues in software, interaction and value.
Mathematical and Computer Programming Techniques for Computer Graphics introduces the mathematics and related computer programming techniques used in Computer Graphics.
