This comprehensive text explains the principles and practice of Web services and relates all concepts to practical examples and emerging standards. Its discussions include: Ontologies Semantic web technologies Peer-to-peer service discovery Service selection Web structure and link analysis Distributed transactions Process modelling Consistency management. The application of these technologies is clearly explained within the context of planning, negotiation, contracts, compliance, privacy, and network policies. The presentation of the intellectual underpinnings of Web services draws from several key disciplines such as databases, distributed computing, artificial intelligence, and multi-agent systems for techniques and formalisms. Ideas from these disciplines are united in the context of Web services and service-based applications. Featuring an accompanying website and teacher’s manual that includes a complete set of transparencies for lectures, copies of open-source software for exercises and working implementations, and resources to conduct course projects, this book makes an excellent graduate textbook. It will also prove an invaluable reference and training tool for practitioners.

Differential equations are often used in mathematical models for technological processes or devices. However, the design of a differential mathematical model iscrucial anddifficult in engineering. As a hands-on approach to learn how to pose a differential mathematical modelthe authors have selected 9 examples with important practical application and treat them as following:- Problem-setting and physical model formulation- Designing the differential mathematical model- Integration of the differential equations- Visualization of results Each step of the development ofa differential model isenriched by respective Mathcad 11commands, todays necessary linkage of engineering significance and high computing complexity. TOC:Differential Mathematical Models.- Integrable Differential Equations.- Dynamic Model of the System with Heat Engineering.- Stiff Differential Equations.- Heat Transfer near the Critical Point.- The Faulkner- Skan Equation of Boundary Layer.- The Rayleigh Equation: Hydronamic Instability.- Kinematic Waves of Concentration in Ion- Exchange Filters.- Kinematic Shock Waves.- Numerical Modelling of the CPU-board Temperature Field.- Temperature Waves.
