Leading Edge Technologies in Fashion Innovation: Product Design and Development Process from Materials to the End Products to Consumers
Book information
Description
This book offers cutting-edge knowledge on various design and product development related technologies, and applications of these technologies in fashion. Further, it envisions the future of these technologies when designing and engineering apparel-related products. Demonstrating how theory turns into practice, this volume presents the analysis of cases representing a successful collaboration between innovative technology and fashion. These current examples of industry and consumer cases with the use of various technologies will allow readers to fully connect how the industry currently implements these technologies into product design and development process as well as communicating with consumers. This text will serve as a valuable resource to researchers and educators in the fields of supply chain management, branding, marketing, fashion studies, textiles, and product design.

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
