Hardback. Condition: Good. A growing concern of mine has been the unrealistic expectations for new computer-related technologies introduced into all kinds of organizations. Unrealistic expectations lead to disappointment, and a schizophrenic approach to the introduction of new technologies. The UNIX and real-time UNIX operating system technologies are major examples of emerging technologies with great potential benefits but unrealistic expectations. Users want to use UNIX as a common operating system throughout large segments of their organizations. A common operating system would decrease software costs by helping to provide portability and interoperability between computer systems in today's multivendor environments. Users would be able to more easily purchase new equipment and technologies and cost-effectively reuse their applications. And they could more easily connect heterogeneous equipment in different departments without having to constantly write and rewrite interfaces. On the other hand, many users in various organizations do not understand the ramifications of general-purpose versus real-time UNIX. Users tend to think of real-time as a way to handle exotic heart-monitoring or robotics systems. Then these users use UNIX for transaction processing and office applications and complain about its performance, robustness, and reliability. Unfortunately, the users don't realize that real-time capabilities added to UNIX can provide better performance, robustness and reliability for these non-real-time applications. Many other vendors and users do realize this, however. There are indications even now that general-purpose UNIX will go away as a separate entity. It will be replaced by a real-time UNIX. General-purpose UNIX will exist only as a subset of real-time UNIX.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. This resource will help school leaders and other professional development providers conduct ongoing, structured learning opportunities for mathematics teachers (K?12). The authors present models for professional development and the preparation of PD leaders designed and field-tested as part of two research projects supported by the National Science Foundation. The Problem-Solving Cycle model and the Mathematics Leadership Preparation model focus on topics of primary interest to mathematics teachers?mathematics content, classroom instruction, and student learning. They are intentionally designed so that they can be tailored to meet the needs and interests of participating teachers and schools. Through engaging vignettes, the authors describe the models, summarize key research findings, and share lessons learned. The book also includes detailed examples of workshop activities for both teachers and PD leaders.…

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Exlibrary with usual markings, stamps, stickers, Cover rubbed & nicked. All pages clean. Multimedia Encryption and Watermarking (from the Multimedia Systems and Applications series) offers a comprehensive, research‑driven examination of how digital images, audio, and video can be protected through modern cryptographic and watermarking techniques. Edited by multimedia pioneer Borko Furht, the volume brings together leading experts to present algorithms, architectures, case studies, and emerging standards. It bridges theory and implementation, making it a valuable reference for understanding how secure content distribution, rights management, and authentication systems are designed in real‑world environments. 🎯 Ideal For Researchers and engineers working in digital security, multimedia systems, or signal processing Graduate students studying cryptography, watermarking, or content protection technologies Professionals developing DRM, secure streaming, or forensic watermarking solutions Libraries and institutions building collections in computer science, information security, or media technology Collectors of Springer's Multimedia Systems and Applications series, especially early or out‑of‑print volumes ⭐ Why It Matters Represents a foundational moment in the evolution of multimedia security, capturing the state of the field as encryption and watermarking were becoming essential to digital distribution Springer technical monographs like this often go out of print, making surviving copies valuable for researchers who rely on stable, citable references Furht's editorial leadership gives the volume strong academic credibility and long‑term relevance Provides algorithms, architectures, and applied case studies not easily replaced by online summaries or fragmented research papers Ideal for anyone curating a thematic archive around digital rights management, media forensics, or the history of multimedia systems.…
