Windows

Windows 8 is the latest operating system from Microsoft, launched three years after the successful Windows 7. Unlike recent versions, Windows 8 brings many important changes to the world of Windows operating systems. If Windows 7 was made to run on more traditional computers such as laptops, desktops, or netbooks, Windows 8 was made to run on a wider variety of devices. It can also be used successfully on tablets, computers with touch screens, and hybrids that combine the versatility of a laptop with the mobility of a tablet.

Tipografía digital

This reference is a fascinating and complete guide to using fonts and typography on the Web and across variety of operating systems and application software. Fonts and Encodings shows you how to take full advantage of the incredible number of typographic options available, with advanced material that covers everything from designing glypsh to developing software that creates and processes fonts. The era of ASCII characters on green screens is long gone, and industry leaders such as Apple, HP, IBM, Microsoft, and Oracle have adopted Unicode Worldwide Character Standard. This only solves part of the problem, as a multitude of font standards and tools remain between the numeric character codes and their presentation. This book explores how those pieces fit together. Yannis Haralambous was born in Athens (Greece) in 1962. He moved to France in 1979 to study at the Université de Lille I, where in 1990 he completed his doctoral dissertation in pure mathe- matics. After a brief period at INALCO and several years of self-employment, in 2001 he joined the faculty of ENST Bretagne, in Brest (Brittany), where he teaches computer science. He does his research in the fields of digital typography (especially for the languages of East Asia), internation- alization, and the electronic book. He has been the co-developer of Omega, a successor to TeX, now merged into the very promising luaTeX.

The work of Richard M. Stallman literally speaks for itself. From the documented source code to the published papers to the recorded speeches, few people have expressed as much willingness to lay their thoughts and their work on the line. Such openness ---if one can pardon a momentary un-Stallman adjective--- is refreshing. After all, we live in a society that treats information, especially personal information, as a valuable commodity. The question quickly arises. Why would anybody want to part with so much information and yet appear to demand nothing in return? As we shall see in later chapters, Stallman does not part with his words or his work altruistically. Every program, speech, and on-the-record bon mot comes with a price, albeit not the kind of price most people are used to paying.

This book is about a tool that we use called intellectual property—IP for short. We use IP to allocate value and create incentives in society. Just like many other powerful tools, IP can be very useful, but it can also be difficult to work with. You can (easily!) shoot yourself in the foot with intellectual property if you don’t understand how and why this tool works. This book is divided into two parts. The first part, comprising Chapter 1–Chapter 8, is an introduction to intellectual property law. The second part, comprising Chapter 9–Chapter 14, is more of an intellectual property handbook for developers, particularly those working in the open source space. It is also applicable to those working commercially, but more often than not your experience with intellectual property will be constrained by your employer’s IP policies. The quick outline is as follows:

Regular Expressions

We particularly wanted to show how you can use regular expressions in situations where people with limited regular expression experience would say it can’t be done, or where software purists would say a regular expression isn’t the right tool for the job. Because regular expressions are everywhere these days, they are often a readily available tool that can be used by end users, without the need to involve a team of programmers. Even programmers can often save time by using a few regular expressions for information retrieval and alteration tasks that would take hours or days to code in procedural code, or that would otherwise require a third-party library that needs prior review and management approval.

“The Internet provides the potential to separate us into a cacophony of discordant voices or to congregate us as purpose-driven communities. Jono Bacon, in his insightful The Art of Community, teaches the latter path, detailing the principles of successful community-building in a way that will appeal to both neophyte and expert alike. Given the increasingly critical role of community managers in the technology industry and beyond, The Art of Community should find a place on any businessperson’s bookshelf, not to mention that of the PTA president, book club organizer, or union activist. Yes, it’s that good.” —MATT ASAY, ALFRESCO AND C|NET
