L.A. Eriksson, "Theoretical Biochemistry - Processes and Properties of Biological Systems"
Elsevier Science; 1 edition (January 1, 2001) | ISBN: 0444502920 | 718 pages | PDF | 37 Mb
Theoretical chemistry has been an area of tremendous expansion and development over the past decade; from an approach where we were able to treat only a few atoms quantum mechanically or make fairly crude molecular dynamics simulations, into a discipline with an accuracy and predictive power that has rendered it an essential complementary tool to experiment in basically all areas of science.

This volume gives a flavour of the types of problems in biochemistry that theoretical calculations can solve at present, and illustrates the tremendous predictive power these approaches possess.

A wide range of computational approaches, from classical MD and Monte Carlo methods, via semi-empirical and DFT approaches on isolated model systems, to Car-Parinello QM-MD and novel hybrid QM/MM studies are covered. The systems investigated also cover a broad range; from membrane-bound proteins to various types of enzymatic reactions as well as inhibitor studies, cofactor properties, solvent effects, transcription and radiation damage to DNA.

K.D. Moeller , "Optics: Learning by Computing, with Examples Using Maple, MathCad®, Matlab®, Mathematica®, and Maple®"
Springer; 2nd ed. edition (August 8, 2007) | ISBN: 0387261680 | 454 pages | PDF | 10 Mb
This new edition is intended for a one semester course in optics for juniors and seniors in science and engineering. It uses scripts from Maple, MathCad, Mathematica, and MATLAB to provide a simulated laboratory where students can learn by exploration and discovery instead of passive absorption.

The text covers all the standard topics of a traditional optics course, including: geometrical optics and aberration, interference and diffraction, coherence, Maxwell's equations, wave guides and propagating modes, blackbody radiation, atomic emission and lasers, optical properties of materials, Fourier transforms and FT spectroscopy, image formation, and holography. It contains step by step derivations of all basic formulas in geometrical, wave and Fourier optics.

The basic text is supplemented by over 170 files in Maple, MathCad, Mathematica, and MATLAB (many of which are in the text; al scripts are included on the CD), each suggesting programs to solve a particular problem, and each linked to a topic in or application of optics. The computer files are dynamic, allowing the reader to see instantly the effects of changing parameters in the equations. Students are thus encouraged to ask "What if?" questions to asses the physical implications of the formulas. The discussion of Fourier transforms in particular is enhanced by the availability of numerical methods.

The book is written for the study of particular projects but can easily be adapted to other situations. The threefold arrangement of text, applications, and files makes the book suitable for "self-learning" by scientists or engineers who would like to refresh their knowledge of optics.In the classroom, the Maple, MathCad, Mathematica, and MATLAB scripts can serve as starting points for homework; outside, they can help find solutions to complex problems in engineering applications.

Some praise for the previous edition:

OPTICS AND PHOTONICS NEWS [OCTOBER 2004]

"This book and its companion CD cover geometrical optics, electromagnetic theory, interference, diffraction and coherence theory. Chapters on optical constants, blackbody radiation, emission and absorption, lasers, holography and Fourier transform spectroscopy broaden its scope. The packet contains over 170 MathCAD files linked to specific topics and applications. [T]he main virtues of the book are the excellent photographs of basic optical phenomena. The index is comprehensive. [The book] will certainly be helpful to students in an introductory optics course."

Chris Loosley, Frank Douglas , Alex Mimo, "High-Performance Client/Server"
John Wiley & Sons (November 1997) | ISBN: 0471162698 | 752 pages | PDF | 4,3 Mb
Learn from a master how to overcome performance bottlenecks and response time delays typical of large distributed systems.

"Chris is one of the industry's most important thinkers on database design - I would strongly recommend this book to readers trying to get past the buzzwords and focus on what really makes a difference in achieving high-performance distributed systems."

- David Stodder, Editor-in-Chief, Database Programming & Design Performance is not simply a matter of tuning the code or the computing environment - it starts with designing performance into the application from the outset, and spans all phases of the system life cycle. Drawing on his 25 years of experience, Chris Loosley explains the principles of software performance engineering and applies them to all facets of distributed systems architecture and design. Along the way, he summarizes his conclusions in over 250 useful, easily referenced guidelines. And he covers all the key topics, with chapters on Middleware, Architecture, Design, Tools, Databases, Replication, Warehousing, and Transaction Monitors.

Loosley's conclusions about the architecture and design of enterprise systems challenge many current middleware trends. Applying the performance principles, Loosley explains why the key to creating truly scalable distributed systems is to decompose complex business applications into multitransaction workflows, and to use asynchronous data replication, parallel processing, and batching techniques.

Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 9 Up-A readable, concise, and informative book. Organized alphabetically with brief articles ranging in length from a single paragraph to over four pages, the book is illustrated with black-and-white photographs, maps, and reproductions. The text will answer readers' questions and probably inspire further research. Almost every article is cross-referenced and contains a bibliography. Minor problems include occasional moments of editorializing and some quirkiness in the discussion of "Motion Pictures." Although the information presented is pretty standard and much of it might be found in a good encyclopedia, students will find it helpful to have everything in one easy-to-use volume.

From Kirkus Reviews
From frank evaluations of ordinance and strategy (``MacArthur's defense of the Philippines could hardly have been worse'') to accounts of the treatment of women and African-Americans in the armed services, this wide-ranging alphabetical compendium of topical and biographical articles goes a long way toward filling in the blanks for young students of the war. O'Neill keeps jargon to a minimum, ends most entries with reading lists, uses plenty of cross references, and includes World Wide Web sites in the back matter. The illustrations, a perfunctory smattering of tiny black-and-white maps and photos, are a weak point, but the author presents information with the succinct clarity that is essential in the best quick-reference tools.

Kogan Page Business Books (August 2002) | ISBN:0749437286 | 180 pages | PDF | 1,5 Mb

This book is not for advertising and design professionals. It is for all those involved with building and defining their own brand, for those who know that brand management is crucial, but don’t know how to go about it. Good brand management is the route to getting the brand to work harder and to make its proper mark. Any brand, new or old, must be managed, nurtured, exploited and, when necessary, changed. Good brand and business managers must understand what a brand is, what it can do for them and how it supports the strategic goals of the business. Good brand managers must also direct and co-ordinate the wide and daunting variety of tasks and experts involved in making brand strategy happen. HOW COME YOUR BRAND ISN`T WORKING? tackles this challenge head on. Peppered with fascinating real-life examples (good and bad), and a brand health checklist, any manager will benefit from Cheverton’s pragmatic advice on positing, targeting and implementation.

Kogan Page Business Books (August 2002) | ISBN:0749437294 | 160 pages | PDF | 1,5 Mb

Key account management (KAM) is not a sales initiative, it is a business-wide process that must be managed and supported from the top. Here we have a book or all those involved in the management of key accounts, but uncertain about how these important customers are identified, selected and managed. In a clean, direct style, Cheverton cuts to the quick and shows how to achieve the core objectives of KAM: retain existing customers in a competitive environment; grow through acquiring new long term contracts; achieve global `preferred supplier` status; manage customers serviced by several departments in a consistent way; create a customer intimate business; achieve operational excellence. `Managing the future` Cheverton says is the purpose of KAM: achieving a realistic balance between objectives, the market opportunity and the resources available. Global cases, tools, techniques and exercises are all features of this inspired little book.

Deepak Pareek, "WiMAX: Taking Wireless to the MAX"
AUERBACH (May 30, 2006) | ISBN:0849371864 | 384 pages | PDF | 9,8 Mb

With market value expected to reach $5 billion by 2007 and the endorsement of some of the biggest names in telecommunications, World Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) is poised to change the broadband wireless landscape. But how much of WiMAX's touted potential is merely hype? Now that several pre-WiMAX networks have been deployed, what are the operators saying about QoS and ROI? How and when will device manufacturers integrate WiMAX into their products? What is the business case for using WiMAX rather than any number of other established wireless alternatives? WiMAX: Taking Wireless to the MAX examines the evolution of wireless, broadband, and the wireless broadband landscape with exhaustive coverage of technological advances and evolving topologies. It sets the tone for the journey towards untouched wireless heights - WiMAX. The author builds a complete understanding of Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) Technologies, elaborating on past developments, present needs and uses, and future trends and markets. He lays out a road map to the future and articulates present and future applications and models of BWA with focus on WiMAX. The book also provides a detailed discussion on the advanced technologies central to the existence of WiMAX. It presents strategies for building the case for WiMAX and achieving success for the different players, including service providers and equipment manufacturers. An increasing demand for access to information anytime, anywhere has led to explosive growth in access and wireless technologies. The trend has created new competitive threats as well as new opportunities in every walk of life. The task, then, is to turn possibilities into realities and provide solutions that enable anywhere, anytime access to information and applications at low cost and with a small investment. Taking a coherent and fact-based approach, this book explores the space between what is known and available and what industry needs.
