Download or read book Creating Worldwide Software written by Bill Tuthill and published by Prentice Hall PTR. This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book can help developers broaden the markets for their products, by providing consistent techniques for internationalizing software -- techniques that do not require extensive redevelopment for each new market.This book introduces internationalization: an approach to designing and producing generalized software that can then easily be adapted to local markets. It shows how one executable can often be made to run anywhere in the world, and still reflect local linguistic and cultural conventions. It covers a wide range of topics, including: establishing locale environments, encoding character sets, displaying localized text, messaging for program translation, handling language input, and localizing software once it has been internationalized. It presents thorough coverage of internationalization techniques for CDE, Motif and X11. It also covers global Internet applications using Web browsers, HTML, MIME, and NFS. Finally, it discusses preparation of international documentation.For any Solaris, Motif or CDE software developer seeking greater success in international markets.

Download or read book Solaris Internals written by Richard McDougall and published by Pearson Education. This book was released on 2006-07-10 with total page 1267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Solaris™Internals volumes are simply the best and most comprehensive treatment of the Solaris (and OpenSolaris) Operating Environment. Any person using Solaris--in any capacity--would be remiss not to include these two new volumes in their personal library. With advanced observability tools in Solaris (likeDTrace), you will more often find yourself in what was previously unchartable territory. Solaris™ Internals, Second Edition, provides us a fantastic means to be able to quickly understand these systems and further explore the Solaris architecture--especially when coupled with OpenSolaris source availability." --Jarod Jenson, chief systems architect, Aeysis "The Solaris™ Internals volumes by Jim Mauro and Richard McDougall must be on your bookshelf if you are interested in in-depth knowledge of Solaris operating system internals and architecture. As a senior Unix engineer for many years, I found the first edition of Solaris™ Internals the only fully comprehensive source for kernel developers, systems programmers, and systems administrators. The new second edition, with the companion performance and debugging book, is an indispensable reference set, containing many useful and practical explanations of Solaris and its underlying subsystems, including tools and methods for observing and analyzing any system running Solaris 10 or OpenSolaris." --Marc Strahl, senior UNIX engineer Solaris™ Internals, Second Edition, describes the algorithms and data structures of all the major subsystems in the Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris kernels. The text has been extensively revised since the first edition, with more than 600 pages of new material. Integrated Solaris tools and utilities, including DTrace, MDB, kstat, and the process tools, are used throughout to illustrate how the reader can observe the Solaris kernel in action. The companion volume, Solaris™ Performance and Tools, extends the examples contained here, and expands the scope to performance and behavior analysis. Coverage includes: Virtual and physical memory Processes, threads, and scheduling File system framework and UFS implementation Networking: TCP/IP implementation Resource management facilities and zones The Solaris™ Internals volumes make a superb reference for anyone using Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris.

Download or read book Solaris 10 ZFS Essentials written by Scott Watanabe and published by Pearson Education. This book was released on 2010 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ZFS file system offers a dramatic advance in data management with an innovative approach to data integrity, tremendous performance improvements, and a welcome integration of file system and volume management capabilities. The centerpiece of this new architecture is the concept of a virtual storage pool, which decouples the file system from physical storage in the same way that virtual memory abstracts the address space from physical memory, allowing for much more efficient use of storage devices. In ZFS, space is shared dynamically between multiple file systems from a single storage pool and is parceled out from the pool as file systems request it. Physical storage can therefore be added to storage pools dynamically, without interrupting services. This provides new levels of flexibility, availability, and performance. Because ZFS is a 128-bit file system, its theoretical limits are truly mind-boggling-2128 bytes of storage and 264 for everything else, including file systems, snapshots, directory entries, devices, and more. Solaris (tm) 10 ZFS Essentials is the perfect guide for learning how to deploy and manage ZFS file systems. If you are new to Solaris or are using ZFS for the first time, you will find it very easy to get ZFS up and running on your home system or your business IT infrastructure by following the simple instructions in this book. Then you too will understand all the benefits ZFS offers: Rock-solid data integrity No silent data corruption-ever Mind-boggling scalability Breathtaking speed Near-zero administration Solaris (tm) 10 ZFS Essentials is part of the Solaris System Administration Series and is intended for use as a full introduction and hands-on guide to Solaris ZFS.
