 Driving Technical Change
Finding cool languages, tools, or development techniques is easy-new ones are popping up every day. Convincing co-workers to adopt them is the hard part. The problem is political, and in political fights, logic doesn't win for logic's sake. Hard evidence of a superior solution is not enough. But that reality can be tough for... | | PostgreSQL 9 Admin Cookbook

Discrete Mathematics for Computer Science
As the discipline of computer science has matured, it has become clear that a study of discrete mathematical topics is an essential part of the computer science major. The course in discrete structures has two primary aims. The first is to introduce students to the rich mathematical structures that naturally describe much of the content of... | | Flash 10 Multiplayer Game Essentials
Multiplayer web-based games are more popular than any others, and developing your own is an exciting challenge. But developing multiplayer games is a complex task. There are few resources that explain how to build multiplayer games from the ground up.

Uncertain data management has seen a revival in interest in recent years because of a number of new fields which utilize this kind of data. For example, in fields such as privacy-preserving data mining, additional errors may be added to data in order to mask the identity of the records. Often the data may be imputed using statistical methods... | | Foundations of Computing
It may sound surprising that in computing, a field which develops so fast that the future often becomes the past without having been the present, there is nothing more stable and worthwhile learning than its foundations.
It may sound less surprising that in a field with such a revolutionary methodological impact on all sciences and... |
