The emerging Second-Generation Web is based entirely on XML and related technologies. It is intended to result in the creation of the Semantic Web, on which computers will be able to deal with the meaning ("semantics") of Web data and hence to process them in a more effective and autono mous way. This new version of the Web introduces a multitude of novel concepts, terms, and acronyms. Purpose, Scope and Methods This dictionary is an effort to specify the terminological basis of emerging XML and Semantic Web technologies. The ultimate goal of this dictionary is even broader than just to define the meaning of newwords - itaims to develop aproper understandingofthese leading-edge technologies. To achieve this, comprehensible definitions of technical terms are supported by numerous diagrams and code snippets, clearly annotated and explained. The main areas covered in this dictionary are: (1) XML syntax and core technologies, such as Namespaces, Infoset and XML Schema; (2) all the major membersofthe XML family oftechnologies, such as XSLT, XPath and XLink; (3) numerous XML-based domain-specific languages, such as NewsML (News Markup Language); (4) the concept and architecture of the Semantic Web; (5) key Semantic Web technologies,such as RDF (Resource Description Framework), RDF Schema and OWL (Web Ontology Language); and (6) Web services, including WSDL (Web Services Description Lan guage) and SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol).

The ASP.NET Web API is a framework that lets you build sophisticated cross-platform HTTP services using a simple unified toolset. ASP.NET Web API applications can be consumed by the widest possible range of devices from tablets and smartphones to desktops. If a device operates over HTTP then the Web API can interface with it. Built on top of ASP.NET MVC it automatically seperates out and handles service-layer agreements allowing you to focus on the form and function of your code without needing to worry about low-level interoperability concerns. So long as your code is correctly crafted Web API will do the rest. Practical ASP.NET Web API provides you with a hands-on and code-focused demonstration of the Web API in action. From the very beginning, you'll be writing working code in order to see best practices and concepts in action. As the book progresses, the concepts and code will become more sophisticated. Beginning with an overview of the web service model in general and Web API in particular, you'll progress quickly to a detailed exploration of the request binding and response formatting that lie at the heart of Web API.You'll investigate various scenarios and see how they can be manipulated to achieve the results you need. Later in the book more sophisticated themes will be introduced that will set your applications apart from the crowd. You'll learn how you can validate the request messages on arrival, how you can create loosely coupled controllers, extend the pipeline processing to comparmentalize your code for security and unit testing before being put onto a live hosting server. What you'll learn * What ASP.NET Web API is and how it can be used effectively * Ways to optimize your code for readability and performance * How to add Web API to both new and existing code solutions * What controller dependencies are and why they matter * How to maintain robust security across your projects * Reliable best-practices for using Web API in a professional context Who this book is for The book is ideal for any .NET developer who wants to learn how the ASP.NET Web API framework works in a realistic setting.

jQuery is the most popular JavaScript library in use today, appearing on nearly two thirds of the 10,000 most visited sites on the web. With this sort of popularity, it's clear that ASP.NET developers can't afford to miss out. By combining jQuerywith ASP.NET you get the best of both worlds: the client-side interactivity and responsiveness of JavaScript with the robustness and extensibility of Microsoft's web stack. Beginning jQuery 2 for ASP.NET Developers shows you how. To begin with, you'll find out how jQuery hooks up with your ASP.NET controls, and simplifies event handling by keeping it in the browser. Then you'lllearn tohandle dynamic content and responsive layouts byinteracting withthe DOM.Effects and animations are one of the most popular uses of the jQuery library, so we cover that nextshowing you how to get a sleek modern look and feel to your siteusing some of the vast library of JavaScript that's already out there waiting to be used. Ajax is one ofthe areas where jQuery really shines, so you'll find out how to make Ajax calls toa web service andget data ontoa page without waiting for slow ASP.NET postbacks every time. And no book onjQuery would be complete without jQuery Mobile: thepopular mobile web framework thatgets you writing sites that work across all the major mobile platforms. What you'll learn Learn to select DOM elements using powerful jQuery selectors. Use jQuery with ASP.NET server controls, ASP.NET MVC form fields and other DOM elements. Manipulate and traverse the DOM tree and add jQuery effects to ASP.NET web pages. Learn to make Ajax calls and pass JSON data to Web Services, Web Methods, WCF services, controller action methods, HTTP handlers and Web APIs. Understand code reuse by creating and using jQuery plug-ins. Get introduced with jQuery UI and jQuery mobile and use them in ASP.NET Web Forms and MVC applications.

While many Web 2.0-inspired approaches to semantic content authoring do acknowledge motivation and incentives as the main drivers of user involvement, the amount of useful human contributions actually available will always remain a scarce resource. Complementarily, there are aspects of semantic content authoring in which automatic techniques have proven to perform reliably, and the added value of human (and collective) intelligence is often a question of cost and timing. The challenge that this book attempts to tackle is how these two approaches (machine- and human-driven computation) could be combined in order to improve the cost-performance ratio of creating, managing, and meaningfully using semantic content. To do so, we need to first understand how theories and practices from social sciences and economics about user behavior and incentives could be applied to semantic content authoring. We will introduce a methodology to help software designers to embed incentives-minded functionalities into semantic applications, as well as best practices and guidelines. We will present several examples of such applications, addressing tasks such as ontology management, media annotation, and information extraction, which have been built with these considerations in mind. These examples illustrate key design issues of incentivized Semantic Web applications that might have a significant effect on the success and sustainable development of the applications: the suitability of the task and knowledge domain to the intended audience, and the mechanisms set up to ensure high-quality contributions, and extensive user involvement.

TypeScript Revealed is a quick 100-page guide to Anders Hejlsberg's new take on JavaScript. With this brief, fast-paced introduction to TypeScript, .NET, Web and Windows 8 application developers who are already familiar with JavaScript will easily get up to speed with TypeScript and decide whether or not to start incorporating it into their own development. TypeScript is 'JavaScript for Application-scale development'; a superset of JavaScript that brings to it an additional object-oriented-like syntax familiar to .NET programmers that compiles down into simple, clean JavaScript that any browser can run today. It's also tied to the next version of the JavaScript standard, which means that TypeScript will continue to evolve over time to keep in step with that standard and with the capabilities of the engines that will execute JavaScript applications. If you are a .NET developer, Web designer or developer, or a programmer with a keen interest in scalable applications, TypeScript Revealed is a great way to get started with the language, learn how it compiles into JavaScript, and how easy it is to learn from a .NET/Java developer's perspective.* Takes you through the language features in Typescript additional to those in JavaScript * Describes the tooling and community support for TypeScript development * Discusses how TypeScript can be included in ASP.NET, Windows 8, and node.js application development projects. What you'll learn * Why you should care about TypeScript * What it does and what it doesn't do * The current toolset and levels of support * The new syntax features of TypeScript * How to build your own TypeScript declaration files * How to incorporate TypeScript into your projects Who this book is for TypeScript Revealed is aimed at the early adopter developer who is already familiar with Microsoft tools and .NET and/or JavaScript development that wants a flavor of TypeScript distilled, culled, and organized in one place. Table of ContentsChapter 1: What is TypeScript? Why TypeScript? Chapter 2: New Syntax Static Typing & Type Inference Tooling Interfaces Classes Derived classes using the 'extends' keyword. Arrow functions Modules Enforcing the Intention of some features. Typescript vs EcmaScript6 Chapter 3: Working with TypeScript Tools & Resources
