Description: Put a hacker in a room with a Furby for a weekend and you'll hear a conversation that's fairly one-sided in its originality. Toss in an 802.11b network card, a soldering iron, wire cutters, a logic probe, and a few other carefully selected tools and materials and you'll have potential. Add a copy of Hardware Hacking Projects for Geeks and by the end of the weekend that Furby will be saying things you never imagined.

Description: Now, here's a complete guide to making the most of USB, including detailed coverage of USB hosts, devices, bus interconnects, hubs and protocols.

Description: This textbook provides an overview of the field of computer systems and network management. Systems management courses are being taught in different graduate and undergraduate computer science programs, but there are no good books with a comprehensive overview of the subject. This text book will provide content appropriate for either an undergraduate course (junior or senior year) or a graduate course in systems management. Systems Management is emerging as the predominant area for computer science in the enterprise, with studies showing that the bulk (up to 80%) of an enterprise IT budget is spent on management/operational issues and is the largest piece of the expenditure.

Description: This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the Second International Conference on MOBILe Wireless MiddleWARE, Mobilware 2009, held in Berlin, Germany, in April 2009.

The 18 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected; the papers are organized in four different workshops: Ubi-Islands 2009, the first international workshop on interconnecting ubiquitous islands using mobile and next generation networks; WASP 2009, the first international workshop on wireless sensor networks architectures, simulation, and programming; UCPA 2009, the first international workshop on user-centric pervasive adaptation; and BMMP 2009, the first international workshop on business models for new mobile platforms. Two of this were purely technical, one a mixed technical/end user nature, and one focusing on business models.
