C++ Footprint and Performance Optimization will fill in the knowledge gaps for programmers who have been trained without regard to software performance from a program level. Programmers will learn what optimization options are available at the start of a project as well as all other major areas where performance gains can be made. Throughout the book readers can participate in the fine-tuning of a stand alone sample application. Chapters on advanced tips, and cautions will prepare programmers for cross platform or multilanguage projects. Topics covered include: -- Embedded system programming-- Functions-- Efficient Memory Management-- Handling Blocks of Data-- Data Storage methods: stacks, arrays, lists, and trees.-- Optimizing I/O routines-- Advance...

Building Web Services with SOAP, XML, and UDDI assumes proficiency with Java and with distributed computing tools. Throughout the book, examples will be presented using Java and the Apache SOAP platform, although a set of sidebars will address .NET development, which Microsoft developers will use to deploy Web services. The book uses progressive disclosure to present an increasingly complex project as it moves through its development cycle. The final section of the book presents linking the completed project with other systems built in J2EE and .NET....
