Patti Shank, Amy Sitze, "Making Sense of Online Learning: A Guide for Beginners
and the Truly Skeptical"
John Wiley & Sons | ISBN 0787969826 | 2004 Year | PDF | 1,75 Mb | 192 Pages
“ If you need quick, targeted baseline knowledge about using technology for
teaching and learning, Making Sense of Online Learning is for you. This
practical, no-nonsense primer will help you understand how online learning
technologies work and how they fit into your organization. You'll gain a working
knowledge of important topics such as design, infrastructure, and evaluation and
the confidence to make informed decisions that will help your learners and
organization thrive. Since information about online learning changes at Internet
speed, the book is supported with a dedicated Web site
(www.learningpeaks.com/msoll/) filled with up-to-the-minute suggestions for
tools and resources. The online learning people promised a revolutionary
breakthrough and went about replicating the textbook and the classroom. They
hyped the bells and whistles and neglected basic instructional design. Clients
bought rigid proprietary platforms that violated all principles of systematic
change. This book responds to my concerns: The focus should be on learning and
performance improvement and not on the technology. Just take a look at the table
of contents. I would have outlined the book exactly the same way. But Patti and
Amy write with greater wit and competency. andmdash;Sivasailam Thiagi
Thiagarajan, resident mad scientist, Workshops by Thiagi, Inc. The information
in this book will help you make informed decisions about using online learning
in your organization. andmdash;Saul Carliner, assistant professor of educational
technology, Concordia University, Montreal Shank and Sitze give thoughtful,
ingenious insights about big topics like design and learner needs. They also
know how to get down into the weeds to explain the great features of a tool.

Jerry Keenan, "Encyclopedia of American Indian Wars 1492-1890"
ABC-Clio Inc | ISBN 0874367964 | 1997 Year | CHM | 0,8 Mb | 278 Pages
“ When thinking of Indian wars, images of John Wayne movies flash in the minds
of most people, but the conflicts between European Americans and native people
go back much further in time. Keenan, who contributed to Hostiles and Horse
Soldiers: Indian Battles and Campaigns in the West (1972), documents conflicts
and wars between 1492 and 1890.
The entries cover most battles, wars, individuals, tribes/groups, countries, and
concepts. Most entries are less than a page, but longer ones include
Revolutionary War (three pages) and Yakima-Rogue War (two and a half pages).
Conflicts covered range from the Battle of Mabila (1540) to the Wounded Knee
massacre (1890). Biographical entries include Native Americans from Pocahontas
and Powhatan to Geronimo. Entries for various pioneers, government officials,
and officers include Edward Braddock, commander-in-chief of British forces in
America during the French and Indian War; Simon Girty, a former Indian captive
who acted as a scout for the British during the Revolution; and Nelson Miles,
who waged war against the Nez Perce and the Apaches. There are entries for
tribes, such as the Cherokee. Other entries include those for forts, policies,
treaties, and weapons. Entries close with see also references and suggested
readings, when appropriate. Full citations for the suggested readings are
provided in the nine-page bibliography. There are black-and-white illustrations
scattered throughout.
The entries are short and closely focused on the Indian Wars, no doubt due to
constraints on the overall length of the encyclopedia. However, additional
information would sometimes help put a topic in perspective. For example, the
entry on General Miles is illustrated with a political cartoon, with a caption
saying that Miles felt the Indians rebelled because they were starving while the
Indian agents profited. There is no further elaboration on this point of view in
the entry, only information on the General's aggressive campaigns against the
Indians during the 1870s and 1880s.
With this new title, Keenan fills a gap in reference collections. Information on
many of the entries can be found in other sources, especially given the increase
in reference materials on Native Americans, but the Encyclopedia of American
Indian Wars pulls them together. Recommended for large public libraries and
academic libraries.

"Radio Resource Management Strategies in UMTS"
John Wiley & Sons | ISBN 0470022779 | 2005 Year | PDF | 3,81 Mb | 364 Pages
“ The key feature of future mobile communication systems is the ability to
deliver wideband and high bit-rate multimedia services alongside the traditional
radio services such as voice, messaging and slow rate data. The broad range of
services expected to be supported can be divided into different Quality of
Service (QoS) classes. However, the provision of such mobile multimedia services
under QoS guarantees will not be possible without a utilization of the air
interface resources by means of Radio Resource Management (RRM) strategies that
ensure the target QoS, the planned coverage area and that offer a high system
capacity. Under this framework, the book focuses on the RRM concepts, including
the theoretical background that serves as a basis for the description of
specific RRM algorithms. The RRM problem for UMTS is presented, and more
specifically, for the FDD mode, which is based on a WCDMA scheme. More
specifically, the different aspects that are covered include: Introduces the
mobile communications sector and UMTS, including the evolution towards 4G
systems, with an overview of the QoS concept which is key for the definition of
RRM strategies a detailed description of the radio interface in UMTS, as the
basis for the implementation of RRM strategies Provides the fundamental concepts
related with the development of RRM strategies in WCDMA networks Analyses
particular RRM algorithms in a variety of scenarios, trying to identify the key
parameters and factors that influence their performance Explores the evolution
of UMTS towards Beyond 3G systems and the concept of Common RRM in heterogeneous
networks with the aid of some algorithm examples This comprehensive title is
essential reading for engineers and managers in radio engineering departments of
UMTS network operators and UMTS equipment manufacturers. It will also prove
insightful to researchers in the field of 3G and Beyond 3G systems and academics
in any of these areas.

Huub van Helvoort, "SDH/SONET Explained in Functional Models: Modeling the
Optical Transport Network"
John Wiley & Sons | ISBN 0470091231 | 2005 Year | PDF | 2,58 Mb | 300 Pages
“ SDH/SONET Explained in Functional Models represents a fresh approach to the
modeling of transport network technologies. This practical guide and reference
text uncovers the description of SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy), SONET
(Synchronous Optical Network) and OTN (Optical Transport Network) transport
networks and equipment using functional/atomic modeling techniques. It clearly
explains the use of models in the ITU-T and ETSI standards, the transport
networks and the transport equipment in the definition, implementation and
deployment phase. Pays particular attention to the SDH and OTN standards using
functional/atomic modeling, as used and defined in the ITU-T (International
Telecommunication Union) recommendations G.805 and G.809 and the ETSI (European
Telecommunications Standards Institute) standards EN 300 417, as opposed to the
formal language used in the ANSI (American National Standards Institute)
standard T1.105. Topics of discussion range from functional modeling high level
transport networks to the most detailed device functions, aided by a variety of
figures and tables. Shows that functional modeling is not restricted to
SDH/SONET but that is can be used to describe any transport network, connection-
oriented and connectionless, e.g. Ethernet and MPLS networks. Written by a
leading authority in the area, this is the first book dedicated to the novel
approach of using functional modeling to describe SDH/SONET/OTN networks. This
volume will appeal to manufacturers, engineers and all those involved in
developing and deploying SDH, SONET, OTN, Ethernet, MPLS technology. It will be
an invaluable resource for postgraduate students on network communications
courses and advanced users using functional modeling.
