Paperback. Condition: Good. The networking capabilities of the Java platform have been extended considerably since the first edition of the book. This new edition covers version 1.5-1.7, the most current iterations, as well as making the following improvements: The API (application programming interface) reference sections in each chapter, which describe the relevant parts of each class, have been replaced with (i) a summary section that lists the classes and methods used in the code, and (ii) a "gotchas" section that mentions nonobvious or poorly-documented aspects of the objects. In addition, the book covers several new classes and capabilities introduced in the last few revisions of the Java platform. New abstractions to be covered include NetworkInterface, InterfaceAddress, Inet4/6Address, SocketAddress/InetSocketAddress, Executor, and others; extended access to low-level network information; support for IPv6; more complete access to socket options; and scalable I/O. The example code is also modified to take advantage of new language features such as annotations, enumerations, as well as generics and implicit iterators where appropriate. Most Internet applications use sockets to implement network communication protocols. This book's focused, tutorial-based approach helps the reader master the tasks and techniques essential to virtually all client-server projects using sockets in Java. Chapter 1 provides a general overview of networking concepts to allow readers to synchronize the concepts with terminology. Chapter 2 introduces the mechanics of simple clients and servers. Chapter 3 covers basic message construction and parsing. Chapter 4 then deals with techniques used to build more robust clients and servers. Chapter 5 (NEW) introduces the scalable interface facilities which were introduced in Java 1.5, including the buffer and channel abstractions. Chapter 6 discusses the relationship between the programming constructs and the underlying protocol implementations in more detail. Programming concepts are introduced through simple program examples accompanied by line-by-line code commentary that describes the purpose of every part of the program. No other resource presents so concisely or so effectively the material necessary to get up and running with Java sockets programming.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. "This book is distinctive in that it implements nodes and links as base objects and then composes them into four different kinds of neural networks. Roger's writing is clear.The text and code are both quite readable. Overall, this book will be useful to anyone who wants to implement neural networks in C++ (and, to a lesser extent, in other object-oriented programming languages.).I recommend this book to anyone who wants to implement neural networks in C++."--D.L. Chester, Newark, Delaware in COMPUTING REVIEWSObject-Oriented Neural Networks in C++ is a valuable tool for anyone who wants to understand, implement, or utilize neural networks. This book/disk package provides the reader with a foundation from which any neural network architecture can beconstructed. The author has employed object-oriented design and object-oriented programming concepts to develop a set of foundation neural network classes, and shows how these classes can be used to implement a variety of neural network architectures with a great deal of ease and flexibility. A wealth of neural network formulas (with standardized notation), object code implementations, and examples are provided to demonstrate the object-oriented approach to neural network architectures and to facilitatethe development of new neural network architectures. This is the first book to take full advantage of the reusable nature of neural network classes.…

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Mining the Web: Discovering Knowledge from Hypertext Data is the first book devoted entirely to techniques for producing knowledge from the vast body of unstructured Web data. Building on an initial survey of infrastructural issues--including Web crawling and indexing--Chakrabarti examines low-level machine learning techniques as they relate specifically to the challenges of Web mining. He then devotes the final part of the book to applications that unite infrastructure and analysis to bring machine learning to bear on systematically acquired and stored data. Here the focus is on results: the strengths and weaknesses of these applications, along with their potential as foundations for further progress. From Chakrabarti's work--painstaking, critical, and forward-looking--readers will gain the theoretical and practical understanding they need to contribute to the Web mining effort.…
