War in the Fourth Dimension: Us Electronic Warfare, from the Vietnam War to the Present
Authors: Alfred Price
Venue:  (2001)

:New technology since World War II has revolutionised the way wars are fought. War in the Fourth Dimension reveals the electronic warfare tactics and equipment employed by the US in Vietnam, during the Gulf War, in the war in Kosovo and elsewhere. In Vietnam, the first use of Soviet surface-to-air missiles against US planes inflicted a major reverse on the US air campaign, which was only checked by the introduction of electronic countermeasures systems and revised tactics. In subsequent conflicts, the low loss rates suffered by US planes attacking targets in missile-defended areas were the result of the earlier hard-learnt lessons. War in the Fourth Dimension provides valuable insight into the long-running intelligence battle to collect detailed information on unfriendly nations' electronic systems, the development of radar stealth techniques, the effect of computer technology on countermeasures systems, the evolution of information warfare and a review of likely developments in electronic warfare systems in the future. This book gives the clearest possible account of these new technologies in modern warfare and how they affect the outcome of battles.

Direct From Dell: Strategies That Revolutionized an Industry
Authors: Michael Dell, Catherine Fredman
Venue:  (1999)

:By the visionary who founded Dell Computer Corporation  one of the most profitable and innovative companies in the world  Direct from Dell recounts the amazing story of Dell and the pioneer strategies that resulted in the company's phenomenal success. At age 13, Michael Dell was a kid with a knack for taking apart the motherboard of his Apple II computer and a penchant to run a business. Today, only 20 years later, after becoming the youngest CEO in history to head a Fortune 500 company, he leads one of the most profitable and innovative companies in the world. Direct from Dell tells the story of Dell Computer's successful rise, beginning with Michael Dell's vision for creating a low-cost, direct-sales model and chronicling the development of key competitive advantages that are the envy of Dell's competition: unrivaled speed to market; an unwavering dedication to customer service; a fierce commitment to producing consistently high-quality, low-priced, custom-made machines; and a shrewd exploitation of the Internet  strategies that have driven sales to an astronomical $13 billion, up from just $159 million 10 years ago. Told by the man who revolutionized an industry, Direct from Dell is not just for CEOs or those working in the high-tech industry. It is an inspiring business story that epitomizes the American Dream  and provides a blueprint for doing business in the 21st century. Dell stock  up more than 29,000% since 1990 and more than 200% in the last 12 months  has been the single biggest gainer among the S&P 500 this decade. Michael Dell has been dubbed "the Jack Welch of a new generation" and compared to Henry Ford and Sam Walton for his "God-is in-the-details" vision. Articles on Dell and Dell Computer appear regularly and widely in the business and mainstream press, including Fortune, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, BusinessWeek and USA Today. Dell travels the world to keynote conferences and participates in leadership forums with the likes of Peter Drucker, Andy Grove, and Jack Welch. At 19, Michael Dell began selling computers from his dorm room. Much to his parents' dismay, he left college and, by the day he would have graduated, was selling $70 million worth of computers a year. Today, he is chairman and CEO of Dell, the world's largest direct computer company. Catherine Fredman collaborated with Andrew Grove, chairman of Intel, on his bestselling book, Only the Paranoid Survive.
Developing ASP Components
Authors: Shelley Powers
Venue:  (1999)

:Microsoft's Active Server Pages (ASP) technology has become wildly popular with web developers. However, the techniques for developing custom ASP components, not to mention the inevitable snags and pitfalls, are not well documented. What's more, the successful ASP component developer must be a jack-of-all-trades, with some knowledge of COM and COM+, threading models, and the ASP object model, as well as a mastery of one or more language tools and development environments. That's where Developing ASP Components, 2nd Edition, comes in. Its first section explores the topics everyone needs to know to develop effective ASP components: Configuring the ASP development environment. ASP components and the Component Object Model (COM). ASP components and threading models. ASP components and Component Services, which provide a variety of services to ASP components. The objects, properties, methods, and events available in the ASP object model. Integrating ASP components and scripted Active Server Pages. ASP components are language independent, and developers increasingly tend to use more than a single language tool. Thus the remainder of the book focuses on ASP component development using one of two major development toolsMicrosoft Visual Basic and Microsoft Visual C++ (with the ActiveX Template Library)along with a number of other languages, such as Perl and Delphi. Each section focuses on the issues that concern the ASP component developer using that particular development environment. These issues include: Accessing ASP's intrinsic objects. Accessing data using ADO. Creating n-tier web applicationswith VB. Handling persistence using MFC along with Visual C++/ATL. It's this strong focus on two major development environments, along with a thorough grounding in essential ASP topics, that makes Developing ASP Components, 2nd Edition, the definitive resource for the ASP application and component developer.
Stochastic Frequency Characteristics
Authors: Hanzhong Wu, Xun Yu Zhou
Venue: SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization (2001)

This paper is concerned with stochastic linear-quadratic (LQ) problems in infinite time horizon with control-dependent diffusions and indefinite cost weighting matrices. The classical approach of frequency domain is employed to tackle the problem, starting with the introduction of a frequency characteristic. The equivalence is established among the unique solvability of the LQ problem, the solvability of the associated stochastic Riccati equation, the coercivity of some bilinear form in the Hilbert space of the admissible controls, and the uniformly positive definiteness of the frequency characteristic matrix.
