Description

Learning By Discovery contains 26 laboratory modules that can be used as lab components in your course, or assigned as independent projects. The labs are written without specific computer commands, so students read mathematics, not text. Suggestions are provided for implementing these labs on Derive, Maple and MATHEMATICA ®. Many can be done on graphing calculators.

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
