Enterprise Integration Patterns: Designing, Building, and Deploying Messaging Solutions 32 reviews
Pearson Education (USA), 2007
Excellent book for Software Architect and Software Engineer
Many books have been written about SOA, but most of them are just about the theory of SOA. It's important for Software Architects and Software Engineers to understand the theory, but just knowing the theory is not enough to develop system utilizing SOA principles.
This book fits nicely to bridge the gap between theory and practice. It contains not only the theory behind the patterns that can ...

Brooke A. Wharton
Harpercollins, 1996
#1 BOOK FOR FILM & TV WRITERS
There are a lot of books out there on writing for the entertainment industry, but this was the one book that got me started. A lot of writers tend to pass around gossip and poor information, but this book set me straight from the beginning, and is now joined by Wharton's website/blog: brookewharton.com(rated in top 10 for film blogs). This is the one book that anyone writing for film or ...

Routing TCP/IP Volume I (CCIE Professional Development)59 reviews
Pearson Education (USA), 2007
The best way to understand the world of IGPs
If any book was ever considered as the MUST HAVE BIBLE for Interior Routing Protocols - then Jeff Doyle's first effort on IGPs is THE book (how many cliché's do you want in one sentence)!! The book goes through at a very even pace - dissecting and describing the majority of both open-standard IGPs (OSPF, RIP and a little on ISIS) and Cisco-proprietary IGPs (IGRP and it's beefier brother - ...

I.T. Sales Boot Camp:
Recently I had the opportunity to interview for a sale position with a much respected software company. A few days before the interview I had just finished reading I.T. Sales Boot Camp. The concept and fundamental ideals of selling in an I.T. arena that were taught and express in the book enabled me to land the job. I believe that the knowledge that I gain from I.T.Sales Boot Camp made the ...

McGraw-Hill's Encyclopedia of Networking & Telecommunications26 reviews
Tom Sheldon
McGraw-Hill Companies, 2001
It's a keeper.
I work for an ISP in the Upstate NY area in 2nd level Internet support. I have found this book to be a very handy and comprehensive reference on Networking technologies. We are also an ILEC and I am impressed with how well this reference covers terms or acronyms that I am unfamiliar with when dealing with this side of the business. Great job Tom! Keep up the good work.

Brad Cleveland, Julia Mayben
Call Center Press, 1999
Wow! So This is How Call Centers Work!
I've generally been an IT Director and Project Manager, so I read this book to get a better idea of my customers' needs. I was pretty excited to discover that there's at least one good summary of what call centers do and how they do it. For my own sake--and perhaps yours--here's my summary of Brad and Julia's summary: 1. Incoming call center management is the art of having the right number of ...

THE book to use to learn, to understand, DSP
Thank you, thank you, thank you, to Richard Lyons for "Understanding
Digital Signal Processing", both editions. I had the great pleasure to
use and learn from the 1st edition about 5 years ago. At that time, I
had the overwhelming urge to convey my appreciation for the wonderful
work. Now that the 2nd edition is out, there is even more reason to
express how much I enjoyed and still enjoy ...

McGraw-Hill Professional, 2003
Review
JohnVacca has again written a book about a subject that has great application in the near future. As notebook computers are fast replacing desktop computers and as flat screen monitors are replacing CRT monitors, wireless data is replacing data transmission via cables of different types. Several companies have already replaced their local networks with wireless networks at work place where their ...

The Scientist & Engineer's Guide to Digital Signal Processing21 reviews
Steven W. Smith
California Technical Pub., 1997
One of the best technical books I've ever seen
I am a graduate mechanical engineering student and I have found that ALL engineers today are required to have a GOOD fundamental understanding of electricity and electronics. The most difficult of electronic concepts to grasp for the uninitiated is DSP. After skimming through other books and becoming quite frustrated hacking my way through others I have found not only the best introduction to ...

Scott Keagy
Cisco Press, 2000
You must have one in your shelf if you are VoIP engineer
I bought the 1st edition back in 2000 and since then it is still the most frequently visited reference when I helped my clients to build VoIP networks. It was written completely from a hands-on engineer perspective, aiming at getting the job done. So you would expect very detailed description on signaling ..., design scenario, IOS programming and trouble-shooting in debug mode. My favourite parts ...

You can't get your money out fast enough for ths one!
I had occasion to go through portions of this book again recently and could not help but be amazed, again, at how complete and information packed it is. Not only does it cover everything you REALLY need to know about NT networking but Tony writes in a wonderfully easy style that makes digesting all the deep tidbits--and there are a lot of those--easy. The previous reviewer who said that this ...

Good book detailing realitites and possibilities of the net!
If you've been awake and actively using the net over the past few years, you probably already know just about everything in this book. Martin has very good insight into what the web can really be...beyond all the technology hoopla, building virtual communities, supplying appropriate content, making a corporate web site that is actually useful to consumers, etc.. A GREAT read for those trying to ...

Fast Fourier Transform and Its Applications (Prentice-Hall Signal Processing Series)14 reviews
E. Brigham
Prentice Hall, 1988
An accessible examination of the FFT great for self study
This book is not just another terse math or signal processing book. It tries to provide an alternative to standard DSP techniques that develop the FFT adequately enough, but show nothing about applications and have the student believing that "The Butterfly Element" is something he can buy an armful of at an electronics store and assemble. All developments in this book use graphical techniques and ...

An excellent reference
I found this book to be invaluable as a comprehensive source of information about telecommunications networks and related subjects. Unlike many other texts, this book does not assume that the reader is a consultant in the industry or has a strong engineering background. Even the choice of each chapter subject is carefully thought out so as to save the time and effort required of the ...
