This exciting and engaging book explores the ways in which people, organizations, and companies are using the Internet to project their interests and concerns into the world. Beginning with an introduction to cyberculture studies and ways to studying the web, Web.Studies moves on to consider everyday web life, web art and culture, web business, and global web politics and protest. Topics covered range from fan websites, web identities, and web design trends, to global capitalism and web allure, cybercrime and the politics of hacking and propaganda warfare via the web. Throughout the book are suggestions for ways in which students can use the web to further their own research. While there has been an explosion of books on the Internet, this is the first to offer students and general readers a comprehensive and coherent introduction to the new web base media culture.

Up-to-speed with ASP.NET? This book gives you a topic and the 5 to 24 “recipes” you need to get the common or not-so-common task done using ASP.NET. ASP.NET Developer¿s Cookbook will use VB.NET exclusively but will include both VB and C# examples on the supporting Web site (in both working and downloadable forms). Each recipe has what you need ¿ a brief descriptive name, followed by a description of the task, followed by the technique itself, and finally a “comments” section where the technique is discussed.

* Integrates design and implementation, using Java and UML
* Includes case studies, exercises and a free software
* Bridges the gap between programming texts and high level analysis books on design defines not only the data type of a data structure, but also the types of operations/functions that can be applied to the data structure. Java is a general purpose programming language with a number of features that make the language well suited for use on the World Wide Web. Fully road tested from the authors own courses, Object-Oriented Design with UML and Java shows how considering the modeling and programming languages together from the start can be beneficial, shifting the emphasis away from detailed programming issues, and instead allowing the focus to fall on the analysis of the meaning and accuracy of the model. No prior knowledge of object orientation is assumed, though some knowledge of Java or other high level programming language is required. Language (UML) is a general-purpose programming language for specifying and visualizing complex software, especially large, object-oriented projects. Object-oriented programming is when a tool for hands on learning

Object-Oriented Programming in C++ begins with the basic principles of the C++ programming language and systematically introduces increasingly advanced topics while illustrating the OOP methodology. While the structure of this book is similar to that of the previous edition, each chapter reflects the latest ANSI C++ standard and the examples have been thoroughly revised to reflect current practices and standards.
Educational Supplement
Suggested solutions to the programming projects found at the end of each chapter are made available to instructors at recognized educational institutions. This educational supplement can be found at www.prenhall.com, in the Instructor Resource Center.

Since this book came out, there have been at least 2 major revisions of Java. But, you know what, don’t worry. At the level of treatment
What Hughes does is use Java as a good language in which to imbue the precepts of computing. If you have never programmed before, you should probably start with an object oriented language. Skip Fortran, Pascal and C. Well, given Java’s popularity, it’s a natural choice.
Some of the early chapters deal with material that is not restricted to OO languages. Like the if-else construct. Or for loops. You should not have any problems with these. Later in the text, it actually goes into how you can think in OO terms, and how to map these into actual source code in the text, it is not closely connected to the latest in Java. Beside, as Java gets upgraded, it tends to be a superset of older versions. .

The executable Internet (X Internet) brings new power and sophistication in delivering services and capabilities to users. The X Internet, both the executable Internet and the extended Internet, fundamentally alters the desktop and Internet landscapes by blurring their distinction both online and off—resulting in a new era of information technology.
Authoritative and comprehensive, X Internet: The Executable and Extendable Internet examines this new paradigm from practical and strategic perspectives. It provides a roadmap for building applications that deliver X Internet capabilities. From a strategic angle, it delves into the legal aspects of using and creating this new breed of Internet applications.
Discussing computer–human interaction, the book details the development of a rich Internet environment, including graphical design, multimedia, architectures, software development techniques, tools, and information management for X-enriched systems, the components that make up manyof the Web 2.0 applications so popular today. It also includes appendices that contain information on a framework for auditing X systems and various guides for using audio and video and building user interfaces.
X Internet systems offer almost limitless possibilities for building rich, interactive systems that increase productivity and dramatically enhance the user experience. X Internet: The Executable and Extendable Internet provides a thorough yet accessible understanding of this new Internet that is becoming critical to software development and systems management.

By Lucian Gheorghe After giving us a background of network security, the book moves on to explain the basic technologies we will work with, namely netfilter, iproute2, NAT and l7-filter. These form the crux of building Linux firewalls and QOS. The later part of the book covers 5 real-world networks for which we design the security policies, build the firewall, setup the script, and verify our installation. These comprehensive set of set up scripts and set up guidelines to create firewall protection for various specific usage scenarios are unique and set this book apart.
