Our journey towards this Festschrift started when realizing that our teacher, mentor,
and friend Ursula Gather was going to celebrate her 60th birthday soon. As a researcher,
lecturer, scientific advisor, board member, reviewer, editor, Ursula has had
a wide impact...
In Single Page Web Applications you'll learn to build modern browser-based apps that take advantage of stronger client platforms and more predictable bandwidth. You'll learn the SPA design approach, and then start exploring new techniques like structured JavaScript and responsive...
This book is the culmination of many brash years and hard lessons. The story starts all the way back when I migrated from C++ into perl. The perl programming language was amazingly powerful compared to the low-level manipulations and bookkeeping of C++. (The fact that it was “slow” never bothered me – I would rather write...
Requiring no prior knowledge of programming or web site design, this easy-to-follow, step-by-step guide helps professionals as well as students create interactive behavioral research instruments online. With this volume, anyone can learn to write programs in HTML and CGI/Perl that will enable them to take full advantage of all the...
Modern society is driven by data. Whether it is at a personal level, like a
notebook containing scribbled notes; or at a countrywide level like Census
data, it has permeated all our workflows. There is always a growing need
to efficiently store and organize it so that meaningful information can be
extracted out of raw data.
