Amazon.com Review For Java developers, download time and execution performance significantly limit the practical sphere of Java applets. Server-side Java is the key solution. Developing Java Servlets presents this important technology for proficient Java developers; however, don't look here for a primer to the base Java language. While the book includes numerous Java code examples, the lack of a companion CD-ROM is disappointing. And while there is a reference to the publisher's Web site, it wasn't easy to find the URL in the book. The writing is also a bit choppy in places. To illustrate many of the concepts in the book, a complete sample application is presented. The author uses an online movie catalog system as the book's case study. This example includes database access, user interface implementation, and simple shopping basket features to put the technology in good perspective. Developing Java Servlets expects readers to have expertise in Java and a basic understanding of object-oriented programming going in. As long as you have this background, it is a solid manual to the cross-platform server processing architecture. --Stephen W. Plain Topics covered: Development environment, communication details of servlets, and using servlets to access databases with the Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) architecture.

Review Never before has the topic of lossless compression been so topical. That's why the recent publication of Lossless Compression Handbook, is so timely. It explains the process of compression and transmission of multimedia signals (images, text, audio and data) so that the decompressed or reconstructed data exactly match the original. Who is this book for? Engineers, scientists and other professionals who deal with image processing, signal processing, multimedia systems and wireless technology. It's for anyone who has a problem that requires compression. - EMedia, The Digital Studio Magazine, May 2003This book will be of interest to every engineer or researcher who is working with coded data such as compressed images, text, or compressed data...Lossless Compression Handbook is a must read for all professionals who are working in the field of image coding such as JPEG 2000. Each chapter has numerous references that help the reader to explore more about topics of interest. Another interesting feature is that authors of individual chapters provide a note on how to go further on a particular topic at the end of the chapter. Pseudocode listing in most of the chapters enables quicker understanding and implements various algorithms discussed.
