Inhaltlich unveränderte Neuauflage. Immer schneller dreht sich das Karussell der neuen Produktversionen im Soft ware bereich. Gerade die Usability, lange Zeit ein Stiefkind der Software entwicklung, leidet unter dem Zeitmangel und der Fülle neuer Technologien und Bedienkonzepte. Kein Wunder also, dass trotz hohem Entwicklungs aufwand jeder Beispiele kennt, die nicht einmal den grundlegenden Regeln der Ergonomie entsprechen. Doch welche Lösungen wirken? Thomas Schlegel stellt in seinem Buch mit dem Verfahren der benutzerorientierten Interak tions spezifikation HERBS eine solche Lösung vor. Die Methode verbindet die Entwicklung dialogbasierter, mehrsprachiger Anwendungen mit dem gene rativen Oberflächenprototyping. Basierend auf Standards wie XML und Use-Cases kann die Modellierung von Interaktionsabläufen soweit strukturiert werden, dass generative Verfahren möglich werden. Von der Modellierung bis zur Generierung eines C++-Projekts und weiterer Artefakte werden alle Stufen und Konzepte prototypisch beschrieben. Eine Vorstellung existierender Ansätze und weiterer Entwicklungsmöglichkeiten rundet das Buch ab und macht es zu einer Ideenquelle für Einsteiger und Experten, Softwareentwickler und Wissenschaftler.

Publisher's Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, The Definitive Guide to Ajax Web Application Development Evolve from the click-and-wait programming pattern to the latest Web 2.0 paradigm using this comprehensive guide to Ajax. Written by Web development expert Thomas Powell, the book lays out every feature of Ajax alongside detailed explanations and real-world code examples. Ajax: The Complete Reference explains how to create and test Ajax-enabled Web applications using the XMLHttpRequest object as well as alternative JavaScript-based communication mechanisms. You'll explore a variety of sample applications featuring emerging user-interface conventions and build applications that address real-world networking and security issues. A robust communication library is developed throughout the book that enables you to architect flexible Ajax applications. The latest technologies such as Web services, Flash-Ajax integration, client-side templates, Comet, and Offline Access are also covered. Discover the future of Web development today! Work with traditional JavaScript communication approaches like iframes Explore all the quirks and details in the XMLHttpRequest object Handle disparate data formats, including XML, JSON, CSV, YAML, and more Deal with networking issues, including timeouts, retries, response ordering, and a variety of server and content errors Simplify JavaScript programming using open-source Ajax libraries like YUI Secure Ajax applications using authentication, obfuscation, and encryption Implement common Ajax UI patterns such as auto suggest, click-to-edit, and drag-and-drop Solve troubling Ajax architecture problems, including back button, history, and bookmarking issues Learn Ajax's role in Web 2.0 and Web services Explore push style communication using Comet and Flash Discover the future of offline Web application access and operation
