Review Citrix Acquires Sequoia Software: Giga Collaboration / MarketResearch.com:

Citrix Systems recently announced its plans to acquire Sequoia Software in a cash deal valued at more than $184 million. This is an important event, becau se it signifies the start of serious consolidation in the enterprise portal software market. In the past Giga analysts had predicted application server and database vendors would acquire many of the smaller "pure-play" portal vendors. Citrix's position in the Windows application server market and its addition of Sequoia's portal products is the first market enactment of this expected trend. Success hinges on Citrix's ability to retain Sequoia's 250 employees and its ability to develop its channel to sell this very different technology. Citrix also risks alienating existing partners and Microsoft, as it moves to compete in the hotly contested portal market. Read this Giga Collaboration to learn about: Citrix Extending Its Reach to the Web Portal Market Consolidation at Hand.

Edition: 1
Publication date: 2000-03-01
Dewey code: 005.1
List Price: $255.00
Price: $250.92

Review Software Engineering with OBJ - Algebraic Specification in Action (ADVANCES IN FORMAL METHODS Volume 2) / Springer:

Software Engineering with OBJ: Algebraic Specification in Action is a comprehensive introduction to OBJ, the most widely used algebraic specification system. As a formal specification language, OBJ makes specifications and designs more precise and easier to read, as well as making maintenance easier and more accurate. OBJ differs from most other specification languages not just in having a formal semantics, but in being executable, either through symbolic execution with term rewriting, or more generally through theorem proving. One problem with specifications is that they are often wrong. OBJ can help validate specifications by executing test cases, and by proving properties. As well as providing a detailed introduction to the language and the OBJ system that implements it, Software Engineering with OBJ: Algebraic Specification in Action provides case studies by leading practitioners in the field, in areas such as computer graphics standards, hardware design, and parallel computation. The case studies demonstrate that OBJ can be used in a wide variety of ways to achieve a wide variety of practical aims in the system development process. The papers on various OBJ systems also demonstrate that the language is relatively easy to understand, implement, and use, and that it supports formal reasoning in a straightforward but powerful way. Software Engineering with OBJ: Algebraic Specification in Action will be of interest to students and teachers in the areas of data types, programming languages, semantics, theorem proving, and algebra, as well as to researchers and practitioners in software engineering.

Review Handbook of Computational Statistics / Springer:

The Handbook of Computational Statistics - Concepts and Methods ist divided into 4 parts. It begins with an overview of the field of Computational Statistics, how it emerged as a seperate discipline, how it developed along the development of hard- and software, including a discussion of current active research. The second part presents several topics in the supporting field of statistical computing. Emphasis is placed on the need for fast and accurate numerical algorithms, and it discusses some of the basic methodologies for transformation, data base handling and graphics treatment. The third part focusses on statistical methodology. Special attention is given to smoothing, iterative procedures, simulation and visualization of multivariate data. Finally a set of selected applications like Bioinformatics, Medical Imaging, Finance and Network Intrusion Detection highlight the usefulness of computational statistics.

Price: $100.00

Review The B-Book: Assigning Programs to Meanings / Cambridge University Press:

The B method is a means for specifying, designing and coding software systems. The long-awaited B Book is the standard reference for everything concerning this method. It contains the mathematical basis on which it is founded, the precise definitions of the notations used, and a large number of examples illustrating its use in practice. J. -R. Abrial, the inventor of B, has written the book in such a way that it can be used for self-study or for reference. It is in four parts, the first dealing with the mathematical foundations, including a systematic construction of predicate logic and set theory, and the definition of the various mathematical structures that are needed to formalize software systems; the author places special emphasis on the notion of proof. The second part contains a presentation of the Generalized Substitution Language and of the Abstract Machine Notation, which are both used to specify software systems; the author gives examples to show how large specifications can be constructed systematically. The next part introduces the two basic programming features of sequencing and loop, with examples showing how to construct small algorithms. The last part covers the very important notion of refinement. [+]
It shows how to construct large software systems by means of layered architectures of modules. It culminates with the presentation of several examples of complete development with a special emphasis on the methodological approach. Finally, appendices give summaries of all the logical and mathematical definitions, and of all the rules and proof obligations. With the appearance of The B Book, formal methods practitioners, computer scientists, and systems developers at last will have access to the definitive account of what will become one of the standard approaches to the construction of software systems.

Review Employee Directory Applications: A Must for Business-to-Employee Initiatives: Giga Collaboration / MarketResearch.com:

The Employee Directory Application, often referred to as a "white pages" application, is considered to be an essential element of a company’s B2E strategy. Accurate and accessible employee information can improve communication and ultimately increase productivity across the organization. Giga analysts view this market as underserved today, but as having strong growth potential over the next five years. The demand is increasing for solutions offering features ranging from basic phone book capabilities to sophisticated implementations that generate reports, produce organizational charts and manage dynamic e-mail distribution lists. This Giga Collaboration examines the benefits, functionality, approaches, and challenges that should be considered by those planning to implement Employee Directory Applications.

Review Lessons Learned on the Web / MarketResearch.com:

Giga's Web Site ScoreCard teams recently assessed 100 well-known US sites on whether their design made it easy for a visitor to evaluate and use the site — and found that 53 percent of sites earned a failing grade. In Europe, sites belonging to the Financial Times' top 100 European companies had a staggering 87 percent failure rate. One of the key reasons for this sorry state of affairs is many organizations mistake the home page for a technology showcase, either by accident or in a misguided attempt to impart brand value and identity. Not only is the home page the first impression conveyed to visitors, it is also the page visitors will see most often, whether re-orienting themselves during a single visit or returning for repeat visits. Getting the home page right is a critical element in the pursuit of repeat visitors, whether the target is the end consumer or other businesses. With this IdeaBundle to learn about: The two key factors that should dominate home page design — which users visit the Web site, and what are their goals? The biggest roadblocks to home page design —pointless animated introductions, long download times and required plug-ins that the user may not have. Consider the surprising fact that good design tools, which help disabled users, may be legally required. Is your home page design "purpose-driven?" People have little patience for Web sites that are poorly designed, hard to figure out and difficult to use. Is the home page the online equivalent of the Tower of Babel? Consider whether your multilingual site either mixes languages, or changes languages without warning. Because the home page often draws significant resources and effort out of the enterprise, it makes sense to consider whether it is being used wisely. [+]
Read this IdeaBundle to find out where your home page does and does not fit the bill.
