RESTful .NET

REST is an architecture that uses the strengths of the Web to build services. It proposes a set of constraints that simplifies development and encourages more scalable designs. Developers (the majority of whom were outside the Microsoft world) began to adopt this set of architectural constraints shortly after it was proposed (although, to be fair, there were a few inside the Microsoft camp who …

System Building with APL + Win

If the APL community debated this topic, it would certainly be making the case for APL as a development tool. The decisive question is: Use APL exclusively or in conjunction with other tools? Whatever the merits, this would be a misplaced debate: the objective is to vindicate APL as a contemporary development tool, with or without other tools. The graphical user interface and a grid object are …

Handbook on the Peaceful Settlement of Disputes

SDN: Software Defined Networks

Up until a few years ago, storage, computing, and network resources were intentionally kept physically and operationally separate from one another. Even the systems used to manage those resources were separated—often physically. Applications that interacted with any of these resources, such as an operational monitoring system, were also kept at arm’s length significantly involved access pol…

Securing Ajax Applications

Deciding to add security to a web application is like deciding whether to wear clothes in the morning. Both decisions provide comfort and protection throughout the day, and in both cases the decisions are better made beforehand rather than later. Just look around and ask yourself, “How open do I really want to be with my neigh- bors?” Or, “How open do I really want them to be with me?” …

Software Testing Concepts and Operations

Software engineering is the only engineering discipline where product testing is a major technical and organizational concern, as well as an important cost factor. Several factors contribute to this state of affairs: • The first factor that makes software testing such a big concern is, of course, the size and complexity of software products, which make the design of software products a high-…

Sinatra: Up and Running

When people speak of Ruby web development, it has historically been in reference to the opinionated juggernaut that is Rails. This is certainly not an unfounded association; Hulu, Yellow Pages, Twitter, and countless others have relied on Rails to power their (often massive) web presences, and Rails facilitates that process with zeal. Why, then, are people so interested in Sinatra, the tiny lit…

Python Network Programming Cookbook

This chapter introduces Python's core networking library through some simple recipes. Python's socket module has both class-based and instances-based utilities. The difference between a class-based and instance-based method is that the former doesn't need an instance of a socket object. This is a very intuitive approach. For example, in order to print your machine's IP address, you don't need a…

Programming Firefox

The successful adoption of a technology into the community of those who rely on it to conduct business is a complicated journey—one that starts with the unyielding work of designers who see something that others don’t. But without the efforts of those who believe in its value and are willing to promote (evangelize), to educate, and to adapt the tool to the needs of the community, the techno…

Programming Google App Engine

On the Internet, popularity is swift and fleeting. A mention of your website on a popular blog can bring 300,000 potential customers your way at once, all expecting to find out who you are and what you have to offer.

packetC Programming

This book covers a vast array of information related to packetC. It is a complete language reference and contains background information on many unique parts of packetC. As packetC shares much of its grammar with C, the book focuses on being an instructional language reference and not a general C programming introduction, since extensive texts exist on that topic. Focusing the unique aspects of…

Packet Tracer Network Simulator

So you have just entered the world of Cisco networking by starting to prepare for CCENT or CCNA and would like to get a taste of everything in Cisco, but do not have the luxury to afford real hardware.

Packet Guide to Core Network Protocols

Basic network architecture and construction is a good starting point when trying to understand how communication systems function, even though the topic is a bit dull. Architectures are typically based on a model showing how protocols and functions fit together. Historically, there have been many models used for this purpose, including, but not limited to, Systems Network Architecture (SNA-IBM)…

Macroeconomics

An economist must be “mathematician, historian, statesman, philosopher, in some degree . . . as aloof and incorruptible as an artist, yet sometimes as near the earth as a politician.” So remarked John Maynard Keynes, the great British economist who, as much as anyone, could be called the father of macroeconomics. No single statement summarizes better what it means to be an economist. As Key…
