Introducing Ubuntu: Desktop Linux

Posted by checkraiser under Magazines

Title: Introducing Ubuntu: Desktop Linux

Authors: Brian Proffitt

Description

Completely free and highly robust, Ubuntu has the power to bring the Linux desktop to the masses. Introducing Ubuntu: Desktop Linux is your key to learning this new, userfriendly, and free alternative to Windows. Think of it as a personal tutorial, a one-on-one class with an expert user of Ubuntu. It begins by helping you choose the right Ubuntu for you (yes, there’s more than one), and guides you through installing Ubuntu, managing the desktop, installing printers, and getting online. From there, the book moves on to describe how to perform everyday tasks under Ubuntu, such as sending and receiving e-mail, playing MP3s and movies, messaging with friends, working with digital images, and much more. There’s plenty of information on how to use OpenOffice.org programs such as Writer, Calc, and Impress as well. While this is an excellent book for the general consumer, the book also addresses businessoriented users of Ubuntu for the small to mediumsized business (SMB) market through the use of sidebars. This is the only “up-and-running” guide to Ubuntu you will ever need.

Title: Ubuntu Hacks: Tips & Tools for Exploring, Using, and Tuning Linux

Authors: Jonathan Oxer

Kyle Rankin

Bill Childers

Description

Ubuntu Linux–the most popular Linux distribution on the planet–preserves the spirit embodied in the ancient African word “ubuntu,” which means both “humanity to others” and “I am what I am because of who we all are.” Ubuntu won the “Linux Journal” Reader’s Choice Award for best Linux distribution and is consistently the top-ranked Linux variant on DistroWatch.com. The reason this distribution is so widely popular is that Ubuntu is designed to be useful, usable, customizable, and always available for free worldwide.

Ubuntu Linux Secrets

Posted by checkraiser under Magazines

Title: Ubuntu Linux Secrets

Authors: Richard Blum

Description

The everyday Linux user can easily get overwhelmed by the complexity of the new software that exists when creating an Ubuntu system. This book covers the basics of creating a new system from scratch and explains what software is installed. You’ll take a tour of installing the Ubuntu Linux distribution system in most environments, including nontraditional situations such as dual-boot and text-based installations. Plus, clear explanations of each of the installed applications show you how to get the most out of each application, rather than simply using them as they exist.

Frontiers of Numerical Analysis: Durham 2004 (Universitext)

Posted by checkraiser under Magazines

Title: Frontiers of Numerical Analysis: Durham 2004 (Universitext)This book contains detailed lecture notes on four topics at the forefront of current research in computational mathematics. Each set of notes presents a self-contained guide to a current research area and has an extensive bibliography. In addition, most of the notes contain detailed proofs of the key results. The notes start from a level suitable for first year graduate students in applied mathematics, mathematical analysis or numerical analysis, and proceed to current research topics. The reader should therefore be able to gain quickly an insight into the important results and techniques in each area without recourse to the large research literature. Current (unsolved) problems are also described and directions for future research are given.

Lectures on Advances in Combinatorics (Universitext)

Posted by checkraiser under Magazines

Title: Lectures on Advances in Combinatorics (Universitext)

Authors: Rudolf Ahlswede

Vladimir Blinovsky

Description

The main focus of these lectures is basis extremal problems and inequalities – two sides of the same coin. Additionally they prepare well for approaches and methods useful and applicable in a broader mathematical context.

Highlights of the book include a solution to the famous 4m-conjecture of Erdös/Ko/Rado 1938, one of the oldest problems in combinatorial extremal theory, an answer to a question of Erdös (1962) in combinatorial number theory “What is the maximal cardinality of a set of numbers smaller than n with no k+1 of its members pair wise relatively prime?”, and the discovery that the AD-inequality implies more general and sharper number theoretical inequalities than for instance Behrend’s inequality.
