Form-based applications range from simple web shops to complex enterprise resource planning systems. Draheim and Weber adapt well-established basic modeling techniques in a novel way to achieve a modeling framework optimized for this broad application domain. They introduce new modeling artifacts, such as page diagrams and form storyboards, and separate dialogue patterns to allow for reuse. In their implementation they have developed new constructs such as typed server pages, and tools for forward and reverse engineering of presentation layers. The methodology is explained using an online bookshop as a running example in which the user can experience the modeling concepts in action.

The combination of theoretical achievements and hands-on practical advice and tools makes this book a reference work for both researchers in the areas of software architectures and submit-response style user interfaces, and professionals designing and developing such applications. More information and additional material is also available online.

(Book). From the amp guru, and columnist for Vintage Guitar magazine, comes a future classic that features more than 60 easy-reading chapters de-mystifying the complex world of tube amplifiers. Over eight years in the making, it covers the basic knowledge and the practical steps to work on this type of amplifier, the preferred type of amp for millions of guitarists and technicians.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed postproceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Trends in Enterprise Application Architecture, TEAA 2006, held in Berlin, Germany, November 29 - December 1, 2006.

The 24 revised full papers presented together with 1 invited talk were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions for inclusion in the book. Their common purpose is to identify problems or issues in enterprise application architecture and propose and evaluate a solution. Topics of interest are model driven architecture, enterprise development environments, service oriented architecture, data integration, sizing and cost estimation, performance benchmarking, mobile workforce access, multi-channel architecture, autonomous computing, enterprise grid computing, load balancing, and enterprise component platforms.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed postproceedings of the International Workshop on Trends in Enterprise Application Architecture, TEAA 2005, held in Trondheim, Norway in August 2005 as satellite event of the 31st International Conference on Very Large Data Bases, VLDB 2005. The 10 revised full papers presented together with the abstract of the keynote lecture were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions for inclusion in the book.
