2. |  Semantic Web for the Working Ontologist: Modeling in RDF, RDFS and OWL By: Dean Allemang; James Hendler Publisher: Morgan Kaufmann Publication Date: 09-MAY-2008 Insert Date: 26-MAR-2009 Bookshelf Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Semantic Web for the Working Ontologist: Modeling in RDF, RDFS and OWL The promise of the Semantic Web to provide a universal medium to
exchange data information and knowledge has been well publicized.
There are many sources too for basic information on the extensions
to the WWW that permit content to be expressed in natural language
yet used by software agents to easily find, share and integrate
information. Until now individuals engaged in creating ontologies--
formal descriptions of the concepts, terms, and relationships
within a given knowledge domain-- have had no sources beyond the
technical standards documents.

If you want to get ahead in this new era of interaction design,

technology.

Publication Date: 15-APR-2008 Insert Date: 01-MAR-2008 Bookshelf Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Subject To Change: Creating Great Products & Services for an Uncertain World
To achieve success in today's ever-changing and unpredictable
markets, competitive businesses need to rethink and reframe their
strategies across the board. Instead of approaching new product
development from the inside out, companies have to begin by looking
at the process from the outside in, beginning with the customer
experience. It's a new way of thinking-and working-that can
transform companies struggling to adapt to today's environment into
innovative, agile, and commercially successful organizations.
Companies must develop a new set of organizational competencies:

By: Jesse Skinner Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 10-JUL-2007 Insert Date: 07-AUG-2007 Bookshelf Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Unobtrusive Ajax
Unobtrusive Ajax is about making web applications that work
for everyone all the time, even if you have JavaScript turned off,
or you're using a mobile phone or a screen reader, or however you
happen to be using the Web. It's about the separation of behavior
(JavaScript), content (HTML), and presentation (CSS).
This short cut will focus on the practical benefits of using
Ajax and JavaScript unobtrusively and show you that unobtrusive web
development and progressive enhancement benefit both web developers
and users of the Web. You'll get to see many simple examples of
building web...

7. |  By: Jenifer Tidwell Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 21-NOV-2005 Insert Date: 25-JAN-2006 Bookshelf Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Designing Interfaces
Designing a good interface isn't easy. Users demand software that
is well-behaved, good-looking, and easy to use. Your clients or
managers demand originality and a short time to market. Your UI
technology -- web applications, desktop software, even mobile
devices -- may give you the tools you need, but little guidance on
how to use them well.
UI designers over the years have refined the art of interface
design, evolving many best practices and reusable ideas. If you
learn these, and understand why the best user interfaces work so
well, you too can design engaging and usable interfaces with...

eye-opening new book examines the convergence of information and
connectivity. Written by Peter Morville, author of the

findability. In other words,...

9. |  Shaping Web Usability: Interaction Design in Context By: Albert N. Badre Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional Publication Date: 23-JAN-2002 Insert Date: 27-DEC-2002 Bookshelf Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Shaping Web Usability: Interaction Design in Context "Al Badre's book is about an everlasting truth--a truth that
many people, many companies, many organizations have learned the
hard way. That is, when designing technological systems for people
to use, one must take into account the characteristics of the
users, and the nature of the task, and the knowledge, experience,
biases, strengths, and weaknesses that the users bring to the task.
In the case at hand, the task is using the World Wide Web."
--James D. Foley, coauthor of Computer Graphics: Principles
and Practice
All successful computer applications have one thing in common:
They are...
