This book was released on 2014-12-12 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quer começar a investir no mercado de ações, mas não sabe como agir? O que são ações? O que determina os preços de mercado? Por que eles sobem e caem? Como posso vencer o mercado de ações? O que são fundos mútuos? O que são fundos de índice? O que são ETFs? Apesar de o mercado de ações ser o cerne da riqueza de um país, e mesmo que ele permita que qualquer um seja parcialmente proprietário de alguma coisa nos maiores e mais bem-sucedidos países do mundo, este assunto não é ensinado nas escolas. Mas atenção: a grande mídia muitas vezes deturpa o mercado de ações. Ela se concentra nas notícias sensacionalistas e dramáticas para poder vender. Para ser franco, o melhor tipo de investimento é entediante. É investir o máximo possível em várias empresas e reinvestir os dividendos. E continuar a fazer isso até chegar a idade de se aposentar. A melhor maneira de investir não é tentar descobrir o que acontecerá com a economia ou com o mercado amanhã, na próxima semana, no próximo mês ou no próximo ano. Muitos escritores de finanças tentam fazer você pensar que é preciso ralar para investir. Você tem que analisar gráficos todas as noites. Ler relatórios anuais. Dissecar as demonstrações financeiras de uma empresa. Ler o WALL STREET JOURNAL e outros jornais da área. Comprar um software especial. Pesquisar fóruns online sobre investimento. Não é assim! Não desperdice seu tempo. Este livro leva a teoria financeira moderna a uma conclusão lógica. Você pode obter o máximo de benefícios em longo prazo seguindo um simples plano. Não é preciso nenhum cálculo matemático chato nem de teoria econômica. É um plano simples de se organizar. Depois de tudo, você pode esquecer completamente dele. Não será necessário prestar atenção nas notícias. Apenas se concentre em ganhar o máximo de dinheiro que p
Download or read book Thoughts on Interaction Design written by Jon Kolko and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-01-04 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thoughts on Interaction Design, Second Edition, contemplates and contributes to the theory of Interaction Design by exploring the semantic connections that live between technology and form that are brought to life when someone uses a product. It defines Interaction Design in a way that emphasizes the intellectual and cultural facets of the discipline. This edition explores how changes in the economic climate, increased connectivity, and international adoption of technology affect designing for behavior and the nature of design itself. Ultimately, the text exists to provide a definition that encompasses the intellectual facets of the field, the conceptual underpinnings of interaction design as a legitimate human-centered field, and the particular methods used by practitioners in their day-to-day experiences. This text is recommended for practicing designers: interaction designers, industrial designers, UX practitioners, graphic designers, interface designers, and managers. - Provides new and fresh insights on designing for behavior in a world of increased connectivity and mobility and how design education has evolved over the decades - Maintains the informal-yet-informative voice that made the first edition so popular
Download or read book Designing Better Maps written by Cynthia A. Brewer and published by Esri Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describing how to build balanced map layouts suited to varied mapping goals, this guide focuses on export options that suit different media and can be edited in other applications. The wide range of text characteristics needed for expert map design as well as how to improve map readability with type effects such as character spacing, leading, callouts, shadows, and halos is detailed. Tips are included for using font tools in the Windows operating system, such as creating special characters in map text, as is information on using text characteristics to indicate feature locations, categories, and hierarchies on maps. How cartographic conventions guide placement of labels for point, line, and area features are also explained.

Download or read book Designing Visual Interfaces written by Kevin Mullet and published by Prentice Hall. This book was released on 1995 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ironically, many designers of graphical user interfaces are not always aware of the fundamental design rules and techniques that are applied routinely by other practitioners of communication-oriented visual design -- techniques that can be used to enhance the visual quality of GUIs, data displays, and multimedia documents. This volume focuses on design rules and techniques that are drawn from the rational, functionalist design aesthetic seen in modern graphic design, industrial design, interior design, and architecture -- and applies them to various graphical user interface problems experienced in commercial software development.Describes the basic design principles (the what and why), common errors, and practical step-by-step techniques (the how) in each of six major areas: elegance and simplicity; scale, contrast, and proportion; organization and visual structure; module and program; image and representation; and style. Focuses on techniques that will not only improve the aesthetics of the visual display, but, because they promote visual organization, clarity, and conciseness, will also enhance the usability of the product. Includes a catalog of common errors drawn from existing GUI applications and environments to illustrate practices that should be avoided in developing applications.For anyone responsible for designing, specifying, implementing, documenting, or managing the visual appearance of computer-based information displays.
Download or read book Digital Image Processing Algorithms and Applications written by Ioannis Pitas and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2000-02-22 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique collection of algorithms and lab experiments for practitioners and researchers of digital image processing technology With the field of digital image processing rapidly expanding, there is a growing need for a book that would go beyond theory and techniques to address the underlying algorithms. Digital Image Processing Algorithms and Applications fills the gap in the field, providing scientists and engineers with a complete library of algorithms for digital image processing, coding, and analysis. Digital image transform algorithms, edge detection algorithms, and image segmentation algorithms are carefully gleaned from the literature for compatibility and a track record of acceptance in the scientific community. The author guides readers through all facets of the technology, supplementing the discussion with detailed lab exercises in EIKONA, his own digital image processing software, as well as useful PDF transparencies. He covers in depth filtering and enhancement, transforms, compression, edge detection, region segmentation, and shape analysis, explaining at every step the relevant theory, algorithm structure, and its use for problem solving in various applications. The availability of the lab exercises and the source code (all algorithms are presented in C-code) over the Internet makes the book an invaluable self-study guide. It also lets interested readers develop digital image processing applications on ordinary desktop computers as well as on Unix machines.
