Book Description
Director in a Nutshell is the most concise and complete guide available for Macromedia Director 7, the premier multimedia authoring tool. It addresses new features in Director 7 and Shockwave 7, but also covers earlier versions for those still working with Director 5, 6, and 6.5. Director in a Nutshell condenses hundreds of Director tips and techniques into a desktop quick reference that is a must-have addition to every Director developer's library. It covers Director's core components (the Cast, Score, Stage, sprites, and animation), delivery and optimization (Projectors, Shockwave, and the new System Player and ShockMachine), and media elements (video, audio, SWA, bitmaps, JPEG, GIFs, animated GIFs, texts, fonts, fields, buttons, menus, cursors, dialog boxes, film loops, Flash, and vector shapes). Director in a Nutshell is the only book to integrate Director's multiple facets into a comprehensive discussion of each topic, including all related Lingo commands. The reader gets both the nitty-gritty details and the bigger context in which to use them. It highlights cross-platform differences for developers under both Windows (3.1/95/98/NT) and the Macintosh. It includes details on optimizing performance, memory usage, productivity tips, keyboard shortcuts, coordinate systems, palettes, the Paint window, Movies-in-a-Window, Xtras, Shockwave audio, QuickTime 3, and Director 7's new features, including dot notation, vector shapes, compressed fonts, sprite transformations (rotation, skew, quad, flip), new Lingo, and the Multiuser and XML Xtras. Director in a Nutshell is a high-end handbook, at a low-end price-an indispensable desktop reference for every Director user.

Book Description
Distributed computing and Java go together naturally. As the first language designed from the bottom up with networking in mind, Java makes it very easy for computers to cooperate. Even the simplest applet running in a browser is a distributed application, if you think about it. The client running the browser downloads and executes code that is delivered by some other system. But even this simple applet wouldn't be possible without Java's guarantees of portability and security: the applet can run on any platform, and can't sabotage its host.Of course, when we think of distributed computing, we usually think of applications more complex than a client and server communicating with the same protocol. We usually think in terms of programs that make remote procedure calls, access remote databases, and collaborate with others to produce a single result. Java Distributed Computing discusses how to design and write such applications. It covers Java's RMI (Remote Method Invocation) facility and CORBA, but it doesn't stop there; it tells you how to design your own protocols to build message passing systems and discusses how to use Java's security facilities, how to write multithreaded servers, and more. It pays special attention to distributed data systems, collaboration, and applications that have high bandwidth requirements.In the future, distributed computing can only become more important.Java Distributed Computing provides a broad introduction to the problems you'll face and the solutions you'll find as you write distributed computing applications.Topics covered in Java Distributed Computing: Introduction to Distributed Computing Networking Basics Distributed Objects (Overview of CORBA and RMI) Threads Security Message Passing Systems Distributed Data Systems (Databases) Bandwidth Limited Applications Collaborative Systems
