Developing games for the iPhone or iPad can be a lot of fun. It is one of the few
things we can do to feel like a kid again. Everyone, it seems, has an idea for a game,
and what better platform to develop for than the iPhone and iPad?
What stops most people from actually developing...
Microsoft was committed to making Office for Mac 2011 a significant improvement over previous versions. To that end, the company focused on collaboration, compatibility, and ease of use, and laid out a four-pronged approach:
• Incorporate features from Office 2007 that were not added to Office 2008 for Mac.
With the dramatic changes in computing power and wider availability of software
tools for design and production, engineers are now using CAD/CAM/CAE systems
for everyday tasks, not just for demonstrations. International competition, de-
creased availability of skilled labor, and increased emphasis on quality are also
forcing...
Computing continues to become more and more personalized and accessible. Handheld
devices have largely transformed into computing platforms. Mobile phones are no longer
just for talking—they have been capable of carrying data and video for some time. Be it
a phone or a tablet, the mobile device is now so capable of general-purpose...

Industry pundits love drama. New products don’t build on the status quo
to make things better. They “revolutionize” or, better yet, define a “new
paradigm.” And, of course, given the way technology evolves, the results
rarely are as dramatic as the pundits make it seem.
Since the publication of the first edition of The Description Logic Handbook
in 2003, the interest in Description Logics (DL) has steadily increased. This
applies both to the number of active DL researchers working on DL theory
and implementations of reasoning services, and to the number of applications
based on DL technology. One...
Macromedia introduced Flex in 2004 so that developers could write web applications for the
nearly ubiquitous Flash platform. These applications benefited from the improved design,
usability, and portability that Flex made possible, dramatically changing the user experience.
