        Collaborative UX Design

        by Toni Steimle, Dieter Wallach

        Software is increasingly designed in cross-functional teams. The individual members of a team working together over time contribute expertise from different areas to joint product design workshops. In the workshops, current project constellations are clarified, progress, barriers and risks of the project phases are identified, (interim) results are developed and next project steps are planned.   The authors provide the reader with a compact and easy-to-understand basic knowledge of collaborative methods of UX design. They describe the selection and use of cross-disciplinary UX methods and illustrate their interlocking in a process model based on workshops. The collaborative approach presented is rooted in human-centered development models, design thinking, and lean UX, and emphasizes an agile, hypothesis-based approach.   The technical presentation is illustrated by a real-world project throughout in which the reader meets Tim, an experienced UX designer. Tim leads a project team faced with the challenge of optimizing a performance tracking software module. In the project work, the team goes through a problem-solving process that is mapped in the process model to seven UX workshops with related content: scoping, synthesis, ideation, concept, prototyping, validation, and finally MVP planning.   On a website accompanying the book, the reader will find templates for applying the methods addressed in the book, a glossary, and an interview with Tim, the project manager of the case study. In the continuously updated interview, Tim comments on current developments in the UX environment. Furthermore, a set of slides on the workshops in the book is available for use in courses.

        The Minimum You Need to Know About Service Oriented Architecture

        by Roland Hughes

        2008 Best Books Award Winner in the category Business: Computers/Technology/Internet - USA Book News. Service Oriented Architecture is all the rage these days. Dozens, if not hundreds of books are published on it, and more seem to show up every day. This book isn't awash with buzzwords and jargon. In truth, this book will probably be shunned by the SOA eltie. Rather than focus on the front end, this book focuses on the back end. That Heritage data silo/application where all of the other books just draw a box with "connect somehow" written on it. Most of them try to sell some expensive midleware along the way. Management can and should read the first five chapters in the book. These chapters aren't technical and may very well open their eyes. The remaining chapters are for those programmers given the "connect somehow" task. While OpenVMS is the Heritage platform of choice in this book and Ubuntu is used for the front end development, developers from other platforms should get a lot of ideas by reading this book.

        The Minimum You Need to Know About Java on OpenVMS

        by Roland Hughes

        Up until this point, most Java programming books attempt to make the reader believe that Java is the way-of-the-future and that all other languages are soon to become obsolete. Not so with this book. The author presents Java with all of its warts while continually comparing it to C++ and sometimes C. He admits not being a fan of Java and assumes you are only interested in learning it because your superiors are forcing a Java project upon your OpenVMS system (this is probably more true than not).

        The Minimum You Need to Know to Be an OpenVMS Application Developer

        by Roland Hughes

        For years now the question has been surfacing in the OpenVMS community "Where are the pimply faced kids?" The other situation which seems to continually occur is a developer of one language suddenly finding themselves having to modify or maintain an application written in a language completely foreign to them. This book was a year long effort to answer both of those questions. It also should help those to work on a good platform. Once the rudimentaries of logging in, symbols, logicals and the various editors are handled this book takes the reader on a journey of development using the most common tools encountered on the OpenVMS platform and one new tool making headway. A single sample application (a lottery tracking system) is developed using FMS and RMS indexed files in each of the covered languages. (BASIC, FORTRAN, COBOL and C/C++). The reader is exposed on how to use CDD, CMS and MMS with these languages as well. A CD-ROM is included which contains the source, MMS and command files developed through the course of the book. Once RMS has been covered with all of the languages the same application using MySQL with C and FMS is covered. This breaks readers into the use of relational databases if they are not currently familiar with the concept. Rounding out the technical portion of the book is the same application using RDB with FMS. While source code is provided for all of the language implementations only FORTRAN and COBOL are actually covered in the text. It is the hope of the author that this book will prove a useful reference on the desk of every OpenVMS developer. The inclusion of MySQL should benefit both those unfamiliar with relational technology and those platformveterans interested in playing with MySQL for the first time.

        How Programs Work, Third Edition

        The Fundamentals of Programming You Need to Know

        by Hisao Yazawa

        This book explains how a program works in a computer in a way that anyone can understand. The program is loaded into memory, interpreted and executed by the CPU. The structure of the program is explained in an orderly fashion using numerous diagrams. The third edition has been reviewed in its entirety, with new products and development tools, and significant additions have been made to the text and notes so that even those new to programming will not be confused. The hardware explanations and sample programs in C programming language, which were well received in the second edition, have also been updated. The supplementary chapter at the end of the book, "Let's Try C programming language! has also been revised to conform to the latest specifications. Newly written Chapter 12 covers machine learning with Python. Readers experiencing machine learning for the first time will become familiar with artificial intelligence (AI) as a way to utilize computers and programs. In addition, an explanation of Python, "Let's Try Python!" has been added to the supplementary chapter at the end of the book.

        by Shubhnandan S. Jamwal

        Beginning with JAVA covers the different features of the JAVA in fourteen chapters with more than ninety solved programs which have been implemented in real time JAVA environment. All these examples are explained line by line with the real time output generated by the JAVA compiler. How Unicode Character Set helps in the Internationalization of JAVA, the difference between the String and StringBuffer class, creating, importing packages and sub packages are explained by the implementing different examples. The concept of the multitasking, synchronization of multiple tasks, inter thread communication, thread priorities are also implemented. The most import important issue is the interaction of the JAVA program with the I/O devices. This concept is explained with the help of streams and the output files generated by JAVA are stored on the secondary memory. The concept of internet programming is also implemented in chapter ten, eleven and twelve of the book. The book also explains the interaction of the JAVA with the HTML files. Dynamic programming concepts are implemented with examples under the event handling. How the different commands of database management are implemented by the JDBC are also explained with their implementation. The new features in JAVA 9 that are Stream API, Private Static methods behavior, JShell etc. are also explained in the book.
