Beginning PHP and Oracle: From Novice to Professional

Beginning PHP and Oracle: From Novice to Professional offers comprehensive information on using the PHP scripting language in conjunction with Oracles database platform. PHP is one of the most prominent open source technologies in the area of web development, while Oracle is one of the most widely deployed and used database products.
Youll learn to reap the benefits of these core technologies by using them in unison to create dynamic, data-driven web applications. The book is packed with practical examples based on the many years of real-world experience of authors W Jason Gilmore and Bob Bryla. This book is an ideal read for web designers or programmers wanting to create applications with PHP in an Oracle environment.

Applied Nonlinear Programming

The solution methods to deal with such problems may be called as nonlinear programming.The present book is focussed on applied Applied Nonlinear Programming.A general introduction is provided discussing various industrial/managerial applications. Convex and concave functions are explained for single variaSble and multi-variable examples. As a special case of nonlinear programming, geometric programming is also discussed.

Algorithms and Data Structures: The Science of Computing

The Science of Computing takes a step back to introduce and explore algorithms — the content of the code. Focusing on three core topics: design (the architecture of algorithms), theory (mathematical modeling and analysis), and the scientific method (experimental confirmation of theoretical results), the book helps students see that computer science is about problem solving, not simply the memorization and recitation of languages. Unlike many other texts, the methods of inquiry are explained in an integrated manner so students can see explicitly how they interact. Recursion and object oriented programming are emphasized as the main control structure and abstraction mechanism, respectively, in algorithm design.
