—Dave Butenof, Instant Capacity and PPU Software Architect, Hewlett-Packard Co.
Use HP virtualization to maximize IT service quality, agility, and value
— Includes coverage of HP's new Integrity Virtual Machines, Global Workload
Manager, Virtualization Manager, and Capacity Advisor
— Plan, implement, and manage virtualization to drive maximum business value
— Understand HP's virtualization solutions for partitioning, utility pricing,
high availability, and management for HP Integrity and HP 9000 servers
— Manage your existing resources to drive unprecedented levels of utilization
Virtualization offers IT organizations unprecedented opportunities to enhance
service quality, improve agility, and reduce cost by creating an automated
balance in system resources. Now, there's a comprehensive guide to
virtualization based on the industry's most flexible and complete solution: HP's
Virtual Server Environment (VSE).
Two leading HP architects and customer consultants help you identify the best
"sweet spot" VSE solution for your environment—and plan, implement, and manage
it.
The HP Virtual Server Environment systematically introduces VSE technologies for
partitioning, utility pricing, high availability, and management, as well as
HP's powerful, unique goal-based approach to workload management. Whether you're
a solution designer, architect, or engineer, you'll find realistic examples,
deep insight, and practical tips, all with one goal: to help you maximize the
business value of virtualization.
— Architect flexible, dynamic configurations that adapt instantly to business
requirements
— Choose the right solutions from HP's partitioning continuum: nPars, vPars, HP
Integrity Virtual Machines, and Secure Resource Partitions
— Use utility pricing solutions to deploy instant, temporary, or pay-per-use
capacity wherever you need it
— Improve utilization and control your virtual environment with HP-UX Workload
Manager, HP Serviceguard, HP Global Workload Manager, Virtualization Manager,
and Capacity Advisor
— Integrate VSE technologies into heterogeneous HP-UX, Linux, and Windows
environments on HP Integrity and HP 9000 servers

Alexander L. Fetter, John Dirk Walecka, "Quantum Theory of Many-Particle
Systems"
Dover Publications | ISBN 0486428273 | 2003 Year | DjVu | 5,84 Mb | 617 Pages
“ "Singlemindedly devoted to its job of educating potential many-particle
theorists ... deserves to become the standard text in the field." — Physics
Today.
"The most comprehensive textbook yet published in its field and every
postgraduate student or teacher in this field should own or have access to a
copy." — Endeavor.
A self-contained treatment of nonrelativistic many-particle systems, this text
discusses both formalism and applications. Chapters on second quantization and
statistical mechanics introduce ground-state (zero-temperature) formalism, which
is explored by way of Green's functions and field theory (fermions), Fermi
systems, linear response and collective modes, and Bose systems. Finite-
temperature formalism is examined through field theory at finite temperature,
physical systems at finite temperature, and real-time Green's functions and
linear response. Additional topics cover canonical transformations and
applications to physical systems in terms of nuclear matter, phonons and
electrons, superconductivity, and superfluid helium as well as applications to
finite systems.

Nigel McFarlane, "Rapid Application Development with Mozilla"
Prentice Hall PTR | ISBN 0131423436 | 2003 Year | CHM | 5,26 Mb | 704 Pages
“ A must-have read for anybody interested in learning to build sophisticated
applications with the Mozilla application framework.
—Mitchell Baker, President, The Mozilla Foundation
Mozilla has grown to become a powerful framework for building cutting-edge web
applications. Rapid Application Development with Mozilla is an indispensable
guide for developers of such applications.
—Brendan Eich, Chief Architect, The Mozilla Foundation, and Creator of
JavaScript
Far more than just a web browser, Mozilla is the platform of choice for today's
application and web developer. An innovative blend of XML vocabularies, easy-to-
use scripting languages, and pre-existing software objects, Mozilla is a
powerful, standards-compliant platform whose functionality guarantees rapid
application development (RAD).
In Rapid Application Development with Mozilla, web, XML, and Open Standards
expert Nigel McFarlane explores Mozilla's revolutionary XML User interface
Language (XUL) and its library of well over 1,000 pre-built objects. Using clear
and concise instruction, McFarlane explains what companies such as AOL, IBM,
Hewlett-Packard, and others already know—that Mozilla and XUL are the keys to
quickly and easily creating cross-platform, web-enabled applications. Coverage
includes:
— A detailed introduction to the fundamentals and capabilities of Mozilla
— Full descriptions of Mozilla tools, including XUL, XBL, and XPCOM
— The RDF data format and its interactions with XUL, including Listboxes,
Chrome, Overlays, Trees, and Templates
— Events, Forms, Menus, Navigation, and Commands using DOM, JavaScript™, and XUL
— Tips for integration into Windows® and Mac® systems
— A guide to deployment of finished applications
— Hundreds of examples, screenshots, and code listings
An additional feature of Rapid Application Development with Mozilla is the
NoteTaker Web browser add-on—a sample Mozilla application that is developed
throughout the book. When installed in a browser it allows you to add notes to
web pages—even pages on other people's web sites! It is a memory and commentary
tool that enhances repeat visits to a given site. This simple application
provides a real-world example of all technologies used in the book.
If you're an application programmer or a web developer and you're looking for a
productive, state-of-the-art, cross-platform programming tool, then Rapid
Application Development with Mozilla is essential reading.

"Krugman's Infectious Diseases of Children" (11th edition)
C.V.Mosby | ISBN 0323017568 | 2003 Year | PDB | 13,74 Mb | 822 Pages
“ During the first half of the 20th century, the infectious causes of many
common childhood diseases became widely understood. The lives of numerous
children were saved by improving sanitation, educating parents about hygiene and
the communicability of diseases, and immunizing children against diphtheria,
pertussis, tetanus, and smallpox. Krugman's Infectious Diseases of Children is
the 10th edition of a book by Krugman and Ward first published in 1958 (St.
Louis: Mosby). A comparison of the two editions is an occasion to assess
progress in the past 40 years. In the light of the achievements of Enders,
Weller, Sabin, Salk, and others, Krugman and Ward wrote of living in the golden
age of viruses. Although the crisis brought on by the human immunodeficiency
virus (HIV) could not have been anticipated, the authors' optimism has been
justified by the success of vaccines for poliomyelitis, measles, mumps, rubella,
varicella, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, rabies, and rotavirus infection. In
contrast to the account in the 1958 edition, the chapter on smallpox and
vaccinia in the 10th edition describes the eradication of smallpox by means of a
global immunization effort. Progress against bacterial disease is represented by
the dramatic impact of Haemophilus influenzae type B vaccine. In therapeutics,
penicillin and tetracycline have been joined by more than a hundred other
antimicrobial agents for treating childhood infections.
The current edition, named for Krugman, retains the purpose of the original,
which was to depict the clinical patterns of childhood infections, explain
laboratory diagnosis, and recommend treatment or preventive measures. A classic
chapter in the original book, entitled "The Diagnosis of Acute Exanthematous
Diseases," emphasized that the practitioner must evaluate the implications of
these diagnoses not only for the patient but also for those in close contact and
the community. In this edition, the chapters that provide descriptions and
illustrations of diseases such as measles are particularly useful, since as a
consequence of immunization programs, many pediatricians, including those of us
specializing in infectious diseases, have little or no direct experience with
their clinical manifestations. Cases must be recognized to achieve rapid control
of sporadic outbreaks, such as the recent rubella epidemic in the Northeast.
Other chapters explain how exanthems that were of unknown cause in 1958 are
