BIRT: A Field Guide (3rd Edition) (Eclipse Series)

Addison Wesley, 2011

Application development tools and technology have come a long way since the late 1970s, when I took my first job out of college in Hewlett-Packard Company’s IT (Information Technology) department.

In early 2004, DTrace remained nascent; while Mike Shapiro, Adam Leventhal, and I had completed our initial implementation in late 2003, it still had substantial gaps (for example, we had not yet completed user-level instrumentation on x86), many missing providers, and many features yet to...

Vector Basic Training: A Systematic Creative Process for Building Precision Vector Artwork

New Riders Publishing, 2011

The one question I get asked most by other creatives is, “How do you get your vector artwork to look so nice?” When people ask me this, they’re not talking about any specific art project or illustration, but rather how I go about building my artwork in vector format so precisely.

Truth is that many...
