Synopsis

This practical book offers the knowledge and code you need to create cutting-edge mobile applications and games for the iPhone and iPod Touch, using Apple's iPhone SDK. iPhone SDK Application Development introduces you to this development paradigm and the Objective-C language it uses with numerous examples, and also walks you through the many SDK frameworks necessary for designing full-featured applications.

This book will help you:

  • Design user interface elements with Interface Builder and the UI Kit framework
  • Create application controls, such as windows and navigation bars
  • Build and manage layers and transformations using Core Graphics and Quartz Core
  • Mix and play sound files using AVFoundation, and record and play back digital sound streams using Audio Toolbox
  • Handle network programming with the CFNetwork framework
  • Use the Core Location framework to interact with the iPhone's GPS
  • Add movie players to your application

iPhone SDK Application Development will benefit experienced developers and those just starting out on the iPhone. Important development concepts are explained thoroughly, and enough advanced examples are provided to make this book a great reference once you become an expert.

    Cryptographic Boolean Functions and Applications

    By: Pantelimon Stanica, Thomas W. Cusick

    Boolean functions are the building blocks of symmetric cryptographic systems. Symmetrical cryptographic algorithms are fundamental tools in the design of all types of digital security systems (i.e. communications, financial and e-commerce).

    Cryptographic Boolean Functions and Applications is a concise reference that shows how Boolean functions are used in cryptography. Currently, practitioners who need to apply Boolean functions in the design of cryptographic algorithms and protocols need to patch together needed information from a variety of resources (books, journal articles and other sources). This book compiles the key essential information in one easy to use, step-by-step reference.

    Beginning with the basics of the necessary theory the book goes on to examine more technical topics, some of which are at the frontier of current research.

    -Serves as a complete resource for the successful design or implementation of cryptographic algorithms or protocols using Boolean functions
    -Provides engineers and scientists with a needed reference for the use of Boolean functions in cryptography
    -Addresses the issues of cryptographic Boolean functions theory and applications in one concentrated resource.
    -Organized logically to help the reader easily understand the topic

    Number-Crunching

    By: Paul J. Nahin

    How do technicians repair broken communications cables at the bottom of the ocean without actually seeing them? What's the likelihood of plucking a needle out of a haystack the size of the Earth? And is it possible to use computers to create a universal library of everything ever written or every photo ever taken? These are just some of the intriguing questions that best-selling popular math writer Paul Nahin tackles in Number-Crunching. Through brilliant math ideas and entertaining stories, Nahin demonstrates how odd and unusual math problems can be solved by bringing together basic physics ideas and today's powerful computers. Some of the outcomes discussed are so counterintuitive they will leave readers astonished.

    Nahin looks at how the art of number-crunching has changed since the advent of computers, and how high-speed technology helps to solve fascinating conundrums such as the three-body, Monte Carlo, leapfrog, and gambler's ruin problems. Along the way, Nahin traverses topics that include algebra, trigonometry, geometry, calculus, number theory, differential equations, Fourier series, electronics, and computers in science fiction. He gives historical background for the problems presented, offers many examples and numerous challenges, supplies MATLAB codes for all the theories discussed, and includes detailed and complete solutions.

    Exploring the intimate relationship between mathematics, physics, and the tremendous power of modern computers, Number-Crunching will appeal to anyone interested in understanding how these three important fields join forces to solve today's thorniest puzzles.
