  Beginning Google Maps API 3
Svennerberg G., Apress, Berkeley, CA, 2010. 328 pp.  Type: Book (978-1-430228-02-8)

The Google Maps application programming interface (API) allows content--such as business locations--to be added to Google Maps, as well as interactive features to display data related to those locations. This book is ...

  Foundations of AOP for J2EE development
Pawlak R., Retaillé J., Seinturier L., Apress, Berkeley, CA, 2005. 352 pp.  Type: Book (9781590595077)

Aspect-oriented programming (AOP) has emerged as a complement to object-oriented programming (OOP) for handling crosscutting concerns and code scattering. This book provides fair coverage of the AOP paradigm, by exploring the different...

  Integrating APL with symbol manipulation, numerical software and graphics
Apiola H., Peltola P. ACM SIGAPL APL Quote Quad 20(4): 10-17, 1990.  Type: Article

The authors’ Environment for Scientific Computing (ESC) contains the ingredients mentioned in the paper’s title. The basic system is the vector-manipulation language APL. Symbol manipulation was originally provided ...

  An object-oriented programming discipline for standard Pascal
Jacky J., Kalet I. Communications of the ACM 30(9): 772-776, 1987.  Type: Article

This paper describes the authors’ use of a programming discipline to achieve the effects of progamming in an object-oriented language. The paper is well written and discusses the advantages and limitations of their technique...

  Predicative methodology
Hehner E., Gupta L., Malton A. Acta Informatica 23(5): 487-505, 1986.  Type: Article

Once we have accepted that the significant effort in programming is not coding but problem solving, we naturally recognize the necessity of formalizing the entire activity of program derivation. First, we need a formal specification la...

  An improved parallel thinning algorithm
Holt C., Stewart A., Clint M., Perrott R. Communications of the ACM 30(2): 156-160, 1987.  Type: Article

It is possible to remove the traditional need for at least two subiterations of an iterative thinning algorithm [1] by expanding the window for each pixel to include edge information about its neighbors. The improved algorithm has been...

  A general character to integer conversion method
Parker J. Software--Practice & Experience 15(9): 761-766, 1985.  Type: Article

The paper deals with the widely known problem of converting a string of characters into the internal integer form. It is shown that, unfortunately, most programs fail to detect integer overflow correctly. Many suggestive examples taken...

  FUMBLE: a PASCAL program for initializing memory
McCaig J. Software--Practice & Experience 13(12): 1191-1200, 1983.  Type: Article

This paper describes a PASCAL program to set a region of memory to any desired bit pattern. It is based on the ideas of evaluating expressions and changing a 16-bit word counter and an 8-bit byte counter. The author illustrates the pro...

  On the complexity of recursion in problem-solving
Er M. International Journal of Man-Machine Studies 20(6): 537-544, 1984.  Type: Article

The author discusses the concept of recursion in programming languages as a mixed blessing. It is both a powerful problem-solving tool and not easily used to its potential. The author blames “block-structured” langu...
