Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Learning Re-enabled is designed to help therapists, teachers, and parents understand the learning disabled child. The author, through extensive professional experience and a special devotion to learning disabled children, developed this book to be a resource for professionals and parents as they sort out the best possible learning plan for the child who learns differently. This book takes the approach that no two children are the same and that one needs to decipher both the child's overt and covert behaviors to make informed choices about appropriate learning strategies.Explanations of learning disabilities are in 'plain English' that is easy to understand for the parent, therapist, and teacher.The Individual Educational Plan meeting guidelines help parents and teachers take information from book and apply it directly to the child.Dispels the myth that every child needs the same therapy and explains how to find the correct approach specific to each child.The glossary of terms is functionally based and can be taught by professionals, or used by parents.Before and after samples of handwriting from learning disabled children present a clear look at the obstacles and successes of learning disabled childrenExplains the laws that impact getting public and private services and helps parents and teachers understand the subtleties of the laws that impact their children/students.Shows occupational therapy in action so parents and their children can 'see' what they will be doing.Helps parents and professionals interpret behaviors of children with learning disabilities and gives them unique insight into what the child may be feeling.Through graphs and text, parents and professionals can 'see' the process of learning, helping them to understand the neurology behind a learning disability.Provides a graph of how occupational therapy helps learning and interfaces with the academic setting.An extensive resource list gives parents and professionals quick access to reputable resources.The text has been reformatted to make the information more reader friendly.The glossary has been redesigned and expanded so each term is accompanied by an example.A homework survival kit has been included for parents to use with their children at home.Updated with current information on the IDEA, which was recertified in 2003.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This is a soup-to-nuts reference guide on all aspects of Web Services - where Web Services is a fast emerging set of Internet-specific middleware technology to further promote the growth of all aspects of e-business via standardization, collaboration and franchising. This book is best characterized as an executive brief for IT and senior management rather than a nuts-and-bolts technical guide for portal implementers. Think of it as the Cliffs Notes on Web Services. Given this audience, the book consistently focuses on business needs, value propositions, ROI, proven solutions and actual examples of current implementations. Each chapter also ends with a 10-item Q&A section that consolidates and summarizes the information discussed in the chapter. The book is illustrated with detailed technical diagrams, includes lots of arresting subtitles and contains many bullet lists and tables to facilitate (and encourage) productive skimming. Decision makers - the intended readership for this book - gain increasing comfort and confidence as they get into the book that they are getting to see all facets of the issues, on a consistent basis, and that they will not be blind-sided at meetings by people asking 'difficult' questions. At the end of each chapter, Guruge summarizes and reinforces key points, allowing the reader to skim through the topics for crucial information. The book also leverages living outside resources and ensures that the readership always has ready and consistent access to any and all terms, definitions and concepts they might not be familiar with.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Clustered configuration first hit the scene nearly 20 years ago when Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) introduced the VaxCluster. Until now, the topic of Real Application Clusters (RAC) implementation had never been fully explored. For the first time, Murali Vallath dissects RAC mysteries in his book Oracle Real Application Clusters to enlighten and educate readers on the internals of RAC operations, cache fusion, fusion recovery processes and the fast reconfiguration of RAC.This book provides comprehensive coverage of the features, technology and principles of RAC that is part of the Oracle9i release of Oracle's RDBMS product. It is divided into three main parts: application/database design, development and maintenance life cycles. Compared to its predecessor OPS, the architecture behind RAC implementation have changed significantly. Vallath discusses Oracle9i features in a RAC implementation with respect to usage and design considerations, as well as those parameters that are and are not applicable. Areas covered include partitioning, indexes, tablespace management, transaction management, backup and recovery principles. Performance tuning with examples, troubleshooting and problem solving scenarios are covered in detail, as well as discussions on the migration process from a single instance database to RAC and migration from an OPS implementation to RAC.Oracle Real Application Clusters takes readers through a logical flow from RAC concepts to operations, covering each facet with a fine-tooth comb. Vallath's skilled writing style makes each chapter entertaining and informative as only a true RAC connoisseur can provide. New and experienced users of RAC, as well as those seeking to expand their knowledge of this dynamic technology, will find this book to be a necessity for both home and office reference libraries.\*Focuses on implementing, testing and tuning features of Real Application Clusters (RAC)\*Provides extensive coverage of usage, day-to-day functions and operations\*Includes tips and techniques such as script samples to illustrate various features of RAC\*Unravels the internals of RAC architecture.…
