|
Wiley.Speech.Processing.for.IP.Networks.Apr.2007.eBook-BBL TITLE : Speech Processing for IP Networks: Media Resource Control Protocol (MRCP) (Hardcover) AUTHOR : by David Burke (Author) PUBLISHER : Wiley publisher ISBN : 0470028343 EDITION : 1st PUB DATE : April 27, 2007 LANGUAGE : English FORMAT : PDF SIZE : 02 x 1.44 MB

[ R e l e a s e N o t e s ]
Media Resource Control Protocol (MRCP) is a new IETF protocol, providing a key enabling technology that eases the integration of speech technologies into network equipment and accelerates their adoption resulting in exciting and compelling interactive services to be delivered over the telephone. MRCP leverages IP telephony and Web technologies such as SIP, HTTP, and XML (Extensible Markup Language) to deliver an open standard, vendor-independent, and versatile interface to speech engines. Speech Processing for IP Networks brings these technologies together into a single volume, giving the reader a solid technical understanding of the principles of MRCP, how it leverages other protocols and specifications for its operation, and how it is applied in modern IP-based telecommunication networks. Focusing on the MRCPv2 standard developed by the IETF SpeechSC Working Group, this book will also provide an overview of its precursor, MRCPv1. Speech Processing for IP Networks:
- Gives a complete background on the technologies required by MRCP to function, including SIP (Session Initiation Protocol), RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol), and HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol). - Covers relevant W3C data representation formats including Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML), Speech Recognition Grammar Specification (SRGS), Semantic Interpretation for Speech Recognition (SISR), and Pronunciation Lexicon Specification (PLS). - Describes VoiceXML - the leading approach for programming cutting-edge speech applications and a key driver to the development of many of MRCP's features. - Explains advanced topics such as VoiceXML and MRCP interworking. This text will be an invaluable resource for technical managers, product managers, software developers, and technical marketing professionals working for network equipment manufacturers, speech engine vendors, and network operators. Advanced students on computer science and engineering courses will also find this to be a useful guide.

How to plan your future strategy for efficient, cost-saving data management Businesses have historically treated data protection as an afterthought, as simply making an occasional copy of data that could be used in the future. Today, this attitude is changing rapidly. The ever-increasing amount of data, along with the emphasis on continuous availability, necessitates changes in the approach to data integrity, which results in management and protection becoming much more closely aligned. Digital Data Integrity throws light on the data integrity landscape of the future. It provides the reader with a brief overview of the historical methods and subsequent evolution of data protection. The text shows how the whole subject of data integrity is changing and describes and positions many of the new, enhanced, more intelligent protection technologies and methods. Digital Data Integrity:
- Takes a unique, forward look at data protection and management, highlighting the paradigm shift from simple backup and recovery to total data management. - Details recent developments in compliance regulations in an accessible manner. - Covers enhanced protection technologies such as advanced intelligent synthetic backups, data reduction methods, and data growth - online protection using continuous data protection. - Explains data life cycle management and data storage, using management, quality of service products and tools to achieve better data management, intelligent allocation of storage, and compliance with regulations. - Contains information on quality control, looking at SLA (Service Level Agreements), protection by business unit and billing/charge back. - Unique insight into hot topics such as next generation bare metal recovery and true system provisioning. This invaluable text will provide system administrators, and database administrators, as well as senior IT managers and decision makers with a thorough understanding of data management and protection. With contributions from Ray Schafer and Paul Mayer.

The Russian Revolution
|
|
The Russian Revolution by S. A. Smith ISBN: 0192853953 Format: PDF

Description: This concise, accessible introduction provides an analytical narrative of the main events and developments in Soviet Russia between 1917 and 1936. It examines the impact of the revolution on society as a whole--on different classes, ethnic groups, the army, men and women, youth.Its central concern is to understand how one structure of domination was replaced by another. The book registers the primacy of politics, but situates political developments firmly in the context of massive economic, social, and cultural change. Since the fall of Communism there has been much reflection on the significance of the Russian Revolution. The book rejects the currently influential, liberal interpretation of the revolution in favor of one that sees it as rooted in the contradictions of a backward society which sought modernization and enlightenment and ended in political tyranny.

Use Case Driven Object Modeling with UML: Theory and Practice
|
|
Use Case Driven Object Modeling with UML: The ory and Practice By Doug Rosenberg, Matt Stephens # Publisher: Apress # Number Of Pages: 475 # Publication Date: 2007-01-11 # Sales Rank: 60929 # ISBN / ASIN: 1590597745 # Format: PDF
Book Description: Use Case Driven Object Modeling with UMLTheory and Practice shows how to drive an object-oriented software design from use case all the way through coding and testing, based on the minimalist, UML-based ICONIX process. In addition to a comprehensive explanation of the foundations of the approach, the book makes extensive use of examples and provides exercises at the back of each chapter.
This book leads by example. It demonstrates common analysis and design errors, shows how to detect and fix them, and suggests how to avoid making the same errors in the future. The book also encourages you to examine its UML examples and to search for specific errors. Youll get clues, then later receive the answers during "review sessions" toward the end of the book.
