Build stylish, slick, and speedy-to-load user interfaces in React without writing custom classes. React Hooks are a new category of functions that help you to manage state, lifecycle and side effects within functional components. React Hooks in Action teaches you to use pre-built hooks like useState, useReducer and useEffect, and to build your own hooks. Your code will be more reusable, require less boilerplate, and you'll instantly be a more effective React developer. About the technology React Hooks promise to make React programmers even more productive. Hooks are a collection of pre-built and custom functions that give you a simpler API for working with key React functionalities. Hooks cleanly encapsulate side effects, make it easier to reuse components between projects, and result in less code overall. These new features represent a fundamental evolution in how the React library functions, so even experienced React developers will want to get up to speed with Hooks. About the book React Hooks in Action shows you how to use Hooks to make your codebase simpler and more reusable, and your applications faster and more responsive. You'll build a resource booking example application chapter by chapter, learning how to develop components with local, shared, and application states. You'll discover different approaches to data fetching, including using Concurrent Mode and Suspense to improve user experience, and explore third party hooks in the evolving React ecosystem.

Die Leistung von Computersystemen ist die ausschlaggebende Groe fur ihren Einsatz. Zur Messung der Leistung wird sehr oft das Benchmark-Verfahren als Standard-Tool eingesetzt, obwohl allgemein bekannt ist, dass die entsprechenden Ergebnisse nur eine sehr beschrankte Aussagekraft haben - dafur spricht naturlich ihre starke Orientierung an der Praxis. Modellbildende Techniken werden haufig zu Recht als "Mathematik-lastig" empfunden und suggerieren zudem eine Genauigkeit jenseits der Realitat. Dabei liegt es auf der Hand, dass beide Standpunkte sich erganzen und zusammen eine wesentlich bessere Messung, Analyse und Bewertung gestatten. Anhand dieser Konzeption erlautert der Autor bessere Methoden zur Leistungsbewertung von Computersystemen.

Das Management von Geschaftsprozessen ist seit einigen Jahren ein wichtiges - strumentarium der Unternehmensfuhrung. Dabei haben sich die im Laufe der Zeit entstandenen Konzepte und Ansatze kontinuierlich weiterentwickelt. Die effizi- te und effektive Schaffung neuer Produkte und Dienstleistungen als kreativer P- zess der Innovation ist ein uberlebenswichtiger Bestandteil der Unternehmensst- tegie. Die Informationstechnologie nimmt hier eine ambivalente Rolle ein, da sie einerseits Prozesseffizienz fordert, aber durch ihre Komplexitat oftmals den W- del erschwert. Neue Geschaftsmodelle und -konzepte erfordern flexible IT-Losungen und - wendungsarchitekturen, die sich den Geschaftsprozessen anpassen und nicht - gekehrt. Serviceorientierte Architekturen (SOA) stellen die Basis fur solche neue Losungen und Vorgehensweisen dar. Sie heben die bisher vorherrschenden, hart verdrahteten Verbindungen zwischen Systemen zu Gunsten einer flexiblen, leicht veranderbaren Architektur auf. Die vorgenommene Auflosung von Systemgrenzen ermoglicht eine starkere Verzahnung von Prozessen und Informationstechnologie. Diese enge Integration von Geschafts- und IT-Welt bietet Potenziale fur den - samten Business Process Lifecycle. Neben der Unterstutzung aller Transferschr- te, von der Design-, uber die Implementierungsphase bis hin zur konkreten A- fuhrung und der kontinuierlichen Kontrolle von Prozessen, eroffnet es auch die automatisierte Initiierung dieses Transfers. Die umfassende Automatisierung be- haltet weit reichende technologische und organisatorische Anderungen. Das - schaftsprozessmanagement der nachsten Generation wird neuartige Geschafts- delle in vielfaltiger Weise ermoglichen, ist aber zur erfolgreichen Umsetzung auf eine weitgehende automatisierte Transformation des Prozesswissens, und dabei insbesondere auf Processes to Applications" (P2A)-Mechanismen, angewiesen. Die technologischen Voraussetzungen fur diese nachste Generation der Geschaf- prozessumsetzung sind bereits geschaffen."

Creating Intelligent Content with Lightweight DITA documents the evolution of the Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA) - a widely used open standard for structuring technical content. DITA has grown in popularity and features since its origins as an internal grammar for structuring technical documentation at IBM. This book introduces Lightweight DITA (LwDITA, which should be read as "Lightweight DITA") as a proposed version of the DITA standard that reduces its dependence on complex Extensible Markup Language (XML) structures and simplifies its authoring experience. This volume aims to reconcile discrepancies and similarities in methods for authoring content in industry and academia and does so by reporting on DITA's evolution through the lens of computational thinking, which has been connected in scholarship and media to initiatives for learning to code and programming. Evia's core argument is that if technical communicators are trained with principles of rhetorical problem solving and computational thinking, they can create structured content in lightweight workflows with XML, HTML5, and Markdown designed to reduce the learning curve associated with DITA and similar authoring methodologies. At the same time, this book has the goal of making concepts of structured authoring and intelligent content easier to learn and teach in humanities-based writing and communication programs. This book is intended for practitioners and students interested in structured authoring or the DITA standard.
