Design Patterns for Web Services in Java describes the architectural patterns that guide developers through design patterns (service implementation and usage) and illustrates different ways in which Web services can and will be used. Design Patterns for Web Services in Java is not the typical narrative tome. Instead, after some introductory text, author Paul Monday provides a catalog of approximately 20 patterns that are typically needed in the development of Web services-based systems.

| Fundamentals of Neural Network Modeling: Neuropsychology and Cognitive Neuroscience Posted: 10 Jul 2009 09:50 AM PDT Randolph W. Parks, Daniel S. Levine, Debra L. Long, “Fundamentals of Neural Network Modeling: Neuropsychology and Cognitive Neuroscience”
Publisher: The MIT Press | 1998-12-11 | 421 Pages | ISBN: 0262161753 | PDF | 20 MB Over the past few years, computer modeling has become more prevalent in the clinical sciences as an alternative to traditional symbol-processing models. This book provides an introduction to the neural network modeling of complex cognitive and neuropsychological processes. It is intended to make the neural network approach accessible to practicing neuropsychologists, psychologists, neurologists, and psychiatrists. It will also be a useful resource for computer scientists, mathematicians, and interdisciplinary cognitive neuroscientists. The editors (in their introduction) and contributors explain the basic concepts behind modeling and avoid the use of high-level mathematics. The book is divided into four parts. Part I provides an extensive but basic overview of neural network modeling, including its history, present, and future trends. It also includes chapters on attention, memory, and primate studies. Part II discusses neural network models of behavioral states such as alcohol dependence, learned helplessness, depression, and waking and sleeping. Part III presents neural network models of neuropsychological tests such as the Wisconsin Card Sorting Task, the Tower of Hanoi, and the Stroop Test. Finally, part IV describes the application of neural network models to dementia: models of acetycholine and memory, verbal fluency, Parkinsons disease, and Alzheimer’s disease. Contributors: J.

| Lynda.com – Adobe Photoshop Filters Posted: 10 Jul 2009 08:19 AM PDT 
One of the keys to mastering Photoshop is understanding the multitude of filters that comes with the program. In Photoshop Filters, instructor Peter Bauer starts by discussing what filters are and how they work, then moves on to explain the specifics of each of Photoshop’s built-in filters. Peter explores each filter group step by step, and also shows how to combine filters for one-of-a-kind effects. He also discusses how to add and use third-party filters to expand Photoshop’s capabilities. This tutorial is meant to be used as a reference guide, allowing you to select any filter’s name to quickly get an explanation and demonstration.

| Total Training – Introduction to Maya Interface and Workflow Posted: 10 Jul 2009 08:09 AM PDT 
Presenter: Alex Alvarez – The Gnomon Workshop
Over the past many years, Maya has become the leading 3D application used in the film, broadcast and game industries. Hailed for its diverse toolset, Maya excels due to its integration, flexibility and performance in regards to modeling, texturing, lighting, rendering, animation, rigging and effects.
Designed for the individual new to Maya, this DVD contains over five hours of lecture. The essential UI (user interface) is discussed, focusing on the work- flow of an experienced user. Learn how to efficiently create, manipulate and organize hierarchies, objects, components and cameras. Many concepts are introduced including the use of Polygons versus NURBS, tesselation, antialiasing, UV Layout, projects, preferences and MEL scripts. Customization of the UI is also addressed in order to dramatically improve efficiency and workflow.

| Mix Cool Retro Curves Into Your Photographs Posted: 10 Jul 2009 04:51 AM PDT 
I’m a huge fan of James White’s work. I love the way he plays with geometric elements and colors. It gives a retro feeling to the design, but at the same time he uses a modern approach. In an interview, he mentioned that he uses a Flash script to generate the vector shapes. Then he does the rest of the job in Illustrator and Photoshop.
Well, inspired by James’s designs, I decided to figure out my own way of creating that type of effect in Photoshop. In this tutorial, I show you how to mix cool retro geometric shapes into your photos.
