"We had a very clear goal in mind when planning this magazine, and that was to produce something that gave Corel Painter users a regular jolt of inspirational tutorials and practical advice. To achieve this, we came up with a few fiendish plans. The core of the magazine is the tutorials. These will show how to manipulate the tools and commands in Corel Painter and create beautiful pieces of art. There are no boundaries in terms of style here – we’ll cover everything from watercolours and oils through to charcoal and ink. In addition to the creative tutorials, we will also have in-depth guides to the program’s tools and functions, so you can improve your understanding of the software."

While Oracle continues to improve the security features of its product, it still has a long way to go. David Litchfield has devoted years to relentlessly searching out the flaws in this ubiquitous database system and creating defenses against them. Now he offers you his complete arsenal to assess and defend your own Oracle systems.

Like The Shellcoder's Handbook and The Database Hacker's Handbook, this in-depth guide explores every technique and tool used by black hat hackers to invade and compromise Oracle. It shows you how to find the weak spots and defend them. Without that knowledge, you have little chance of keeping your databases truly secure.

Discover how to deal with the security flaws revealed in the Oracle RDBMS
Explore some never-before-published forays into Oracle security holes and learn to defend them from attack
Learn why independent security assessments are not necessarily a guarantee of safety
See how Oracle 10g Release 2 has improved its security features and where the flaws remain

To supplement the program-specific guidance, readers can enjoy regular features on traditional art theory and techniques. Let’s face it – if you’re interested in Corel Painter, you no doubt have a love of art in general, so we thought it was important to look at the techniques and practices that artists use. The regular Drawing 101 section will explain artistic concepts in depth, and cover subjects such as perspective, composition and shading, in addition to showing how to draw freehand. You can also benefit from Corel Painter artists explaining the creative process behind one of their images_about and then try and create it yourself. And we can’t forget the Paint Like… tutorials, which show you how to re-create a famous painting and discover more about that artists’ style.

Whatever skill level you happen to be, the Official Corel Painter Magazine will have something to fuel your imagination and help you create a digital masterpiece.

In a constant stream of new ideas, wireless technologies continue to emerge offering a range of capabilities, each affording simplicity and ease-of-use. Such

diversity and choice should surely beg the question, are manufacturers using the right technology for the right product?

Developing Practical Wireless Applications will explore this question and, in doing so, will illustrate many of the wireless technologies currently available

whilst drawing upon their individual strengths and weaknesses. More specifically, the book will draw your attention to the diverse collection of standardized

and proprietary solutions available to manufacturers. As developers and innovators your choices are not restricted to any norm and, as such, a standardized

or proprietary solution may afford you greater benefits in realising any product roadmap.

Developing Practical Wireless Applications will provide you with a comprehensive understanding of how each technology works, coupled with an exploration into

overlapping, complementary and competing technologies. In establishing this foundation, we will explore wireless applications in their context and address

their suitability. In contrast, the book also considers the practicality of a wireless world in an attempt to better understand our audience and specific

demographic groups. Coupled with a richer understanding of our consumers, along with our technology make-up we can indeed target wireless products more

effectively.

*Explores techniques used to attack wireless networks including WarXing, WarChalking, BlueJacking, and BlueSnarfing
*Discusses applications utilizing ZigBee, NFC, RFID, Ultra-Wideband and WirelessUSB (WiMedia)
*Details Bluetooth 2.x +EDR and introduces the v3.0 (BToverUWB) specification
*Includes fundamental introductions to WiFi, namely 802.11i, 802.11p and 802.11n
*Compares personal-area and wide-area communications including 3G, HSDPA, 4G, and WiMAX, as well as introducing Wireless Convergence

Software Testing presents one of the first comprehensive guides to testing activities, ranging from test planning through test completion for every phase of software under development, and software under revision. Real life case studies are provided to enhance understanding as well as a companion website with tools and examples.

Software Testing: Testing Across the Entire Lifecycle provides the fundamental concepts and approaches to software testing. The topic is important for two reasons. First, according to US Government surveys there has been an estimated $59.5B in business losses since 2000 due to poor quality software. Second, based on the authors’ inability to find experienced software testers to address some of the estimated $22.2B testing opportunity, the current pool of experienced software testers is already gainfully employed.

The topic merits a book because in the authors’ opinion there is no single, comprehensive software testing textbook available that gives novice testers the whole picture.  There are a large number of narrowly scoped, deep textbooks  that are excellent for experienced testers, but they tend to leave the novice tester confused and discouraged. Our task is to provide the novice tester with a complete coverage of software testing as it is practiced today, as it will be practiced in the future, and as a viable career option.

This book takes a four-fold approach. First,  it  examines  the  general  mind-set  of  a  tester  using  non-technical  examples like buying a car. Second, it examines the structured approach that emphasizes test planning. Third, it examines the choices of software testing approaches and when during  the  software  development  cycle  they  are  normally  used.  Finally,  it  walks the reader through a software development project from end to end, demonstrating appropriate use of the software testing approaches previously discussed on an individual basis.

This first comprehensive survey to cover all pharmaceutically relevant topics provides a comprehensive introduction to this novel and revolutionary tool, presenting both concepts and application examples of biosimulated cells, organs and organisms. Following an introduction to the role of biosimulation in drug development, the authors go on to discuss the simulation of cells and tissues, as well as simulating drug action and effect. A further section is devoted to simulating networks and populations, and the whole is rounded off by a look at the potential for biosimulation in industrial drug development and for regulatory decisions. Part of the authors are members of the BioSim Network of Excellence that encompasses more than 40 academic institutions, pharmaceutical companies and regulatory authorities dealing with drug development; other contributors come from industry, resulting in a cross-disciplinary expert reference.

Adopting a practical approach, the authors provide a detailed interpretation of the existing regulations (GMP, ICH), while also discussing the appropriate calculations, parameters and tests. The book thus allows readers to validate the analysis of pharmaceutical compounds while complying with both the regulations as well as the industry demands for robustness and cost effectiveness.

Following an introduction to the basic parameters and tests in pharmaceutical validation, including specificity, linearity, range, precision, accuracy, detection and quantitation limits, the text focuses on a life-cycle approach to validation and the integration of validation into the whole analytical quality assurance system. The whole is rounded off with a look at future trends.

With its first-hand knowledge of the industry as well as regulating bodies, this is an invaluable reference for analytical chemists, the pharmaceutical industry, pharmaceutists, QA officers, and public authorities.

Pharmaceutical giants have doubled their investments in drug development in the past decade only to see new drug approvals remain constant. This book investigates and highlights a set of proactive strategies aimed at generating sustainable competitive advantage based on value-generating business practices. We focus on three sources of pharmaceutical innovation: new management methods in the drug development pipeline, new technologies as enablers for cutting-edge R&D, and new forms of cooperation and internationalization, such as open innovation in the early phases of R&D. Our findings are illustrated by cases from Europe, the US, and Asia.
