From the Publisher: Steve Harris and Rob Macdonald have applied their unrivaled .NET exposure and teaching pedigree to make Moving to ***: Web Development with VB .NET the most comprehensive, yet concise, introduction to *** development available. Whereas many .NET books cover only the basics, Moving to *** leads the reader from simple concepts and development tips through to detailed and informative chapters on *** architecture, advanced design and scalability considerations, and the multifaceted topic of Web security. Special chapters that cover creating mobile Web Applications for use with cell phones, learning XML, and building .NET Web Services ensure that the reader is fully informed, not just about where *** is being applied today, but also about those areas set to become increasingly important in coming years. The unique structure of Moving to *** delivers real *** content starting from Chapter 1, while relegating general .NET and Web programming concepts to a set of carefully designed appendixes. Harris and Macdonald bring years of real experience programming and teaching .NET to bear and deliver *** programming techniques that really work, explained in a way that makes sense.

The U.S. Navy lacks the capability to optimize the use of individuals' existing skills and to optimize the use of training classes. This paper develops a network model for the Navy's personnel assignment problem with enroute training. The number of available seats in training schools are generated as side constraints. The model can improve the effectiveness of the Navy's decision process for technical training. Considering the Navy's increasing need for advanced technical training, the model will help the Navy to avoid substantial increases in training cost by improved skill utilization and school utilization.

The performance, reliability, cost, size and energy usage of computing systems can be improved by one or more orders of magnitude by the systematic use of modern control and optimization methods. Computing systems rely on the use of feedback algorithms to schedule tasks, data and resources, but the models that are used to design these algorithms are validated using open-loop metrics. By using closed-Loop metrics instead, such as the gap metric developed in the control community, it should be possible to develop unproved scheduling algorithms and computing systems that have not been over-engineered. Furthermore, scheduling problems are most naturally formulated as constraint satisfaction or mathematical optimization problems, but these are seldom implemented using state of the art numerical methods, nor do they explicitly take into account the fact that the scheduling problem itself takes time to solve. This paper makes the case that recent results in real-time model predictive control, where optimization problems are solved in Order to control a process that evolves in time, are likely to form the basis of scheduling algorithms of the future. We therefore outline some of the research problems and opportunities that could arise by explicitly considering feedback and time when designing optimal scheduling algorithms for computing systems.

A system of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be used to provide uninterrupted service to customers by handing the mission from a weary UAV to a fresh one in an automated manner. Toward such a system, we discuss the development of two components: ROS GPS waypoint tracking package and centralized task allocation network system (CTANS). The ROS GPS waypoint tracking package is the first open source software developed for the AR Drone 2.0 UAV that enables integration with a larger system. CTANS connects the UAV host computers to a central computer, receives the UAV status information and distributes GPS flight directives. CTANS is responsible for distributing the commands to the UAVs to ensure mission handoffs are conducted as required. This multi-UAV control software testbed was used to implement a small scale, outdoor, persistent, GPS based patrol mission with two UAVs.

Windows Workflow Foundation is a groundbreaking addition to the core of the .NET Framework that allows you to orchestrate human and system interactions as a series of workflows that can be easily mapped, analyzed, adjusted, and implemented. As business problems become more complex, the need for a workflowbased solution has never been more evident. WF provides a simple and consistent way to model and implement complex problems. As a developer, you focus on developing the business logic for individual workflow tasks. The runtime handles the execution of those tasks after they have been composed into a workflow. Pro WF: Windows Workflow in .NET 3.5 provides you with the skills you need to incorporate WF in your applications. This book gets you up to speed with Windows Workflow Foundation quickly and comprehensively. The practical aspects of using WF are covered in a lively tutorial style with each workflow concept illustrated in C#. Youll find detailed coverage of how to customize your workflows and access them in a variety of ways and situations so you can maximize the advantages of this technology. Pro WF: Windows Workflow in .NET 3.5 is written by an experienced Windows and .NET developer. Rather than simply duplicating the available references on the subject, author Bruce Bukovics leads you through a series of practical WF topics that enable you to gain immediate experience and learn how to use the technology as you progress through the book. What youll learn WF basics Customizing your workflows Accessing your workflows in a variety of ways in a variety of situations Using WF with web services and *** Integrating WCF and WF Who is this book for? Developers encountering WF and .NET 3.5 for the first time in their professional lives About the Apress Pro Series The Apress Pro series books are practical, professional tutorials to keep you on and moving up the professional ladder. You have gotten the job, now you need to hone your skills in these tough competitive t

From the Publisher: Unlike most books on the market, Learn XML In a Weekend is specific to using XML on Microsoft platforms thereby narrowing its focus and making it easier to become instantly productive. It focuses on using tools to create, edit, and transform the language and shows you how to use XML for Web site design and other real-world applications. Plus, you'll learn how to use XML with: ***, the Microsoft .NET framework, HTML, data binding, and the XML DOM based on Microsoft operating systems. The companion Web site contains the book's sample code, XML tools, information on installing the parser, and more!
