User Interface Design for Programmers by Avram Joel Spolsky Pdf
Most programmers' fear of user interface (UI) programming comes from their fear of doing UI design. They think that UI design is like graphic design—the mysterious process by which creative, latte-drinking, all-black-wearing people produce cool-looking, artistic pieces. Most programmers see themselves as analytic, logical thinkers instead—strong at reasoning, weak on artistic judgment, and incapable of doing UI design. In this brilliantly readable book, author Joel Spolsky proposes simple, logical rules that can be applied without any artistic talent to improve any user interface, from traditional GUI applications to websites to consumer electronics. Spolsky's primary axiom, the importance of bringing the program model in line with the user model, is both rational and simple. In a fun and entertaining way, Spolky makes user interface design easy for programmers to grasp. After reading User Interface Design for Programmers, you'll know how to design interfaces with the user in mind. You'll learn the important principles that underlie all good UI design, and you'll learn how to perform usability testing that works.

Human-Computer Interface Design by A.G. Sutcliffe Pdf
A description of the principles of and practices in human-computer interfacing, based on applied psychology, while integrating the approach with methods of software engineering. Tasks analysis, command language grammar, display and control interfaces and interface evaluation are examined.
API development is becoming increasingly common for server-side developers thanks to the rise of front-end JavaScript frameworks, iPhone applications, and API-centric architectures. It might seem like grabbing stuff from a data source and shoving it out as JSON would be easy, but surviving changes in business logic, database schema updates, new features, or deprecated endpoints can be a nightmare. After finding many of the existing resources for API development to be lacking, Phil learned a lot of things the hard way through years of trial and error. This book aims to condense that experience, taking examples and explanations further than the trivial apples and pears nonsense tutorials often provide. By passing on some best practices and general good advice you can hit the ground running with API development, combined with some horror stories and how they were overcome/avoided/averted. This book will discuss the theory of designing and building APIs in any language or framework, with this theory applied in PHP-based examples.
CTOS/Open Application Programming Interface Specification by Bert Miller Pdf
This work offers readers networking procedures common to all CTOS-based operating systems and ways to use these procedures so that CTOS programs can directly communicate with workstations and mainframes.
Solidly founded on 25 years of research and teaching, the author integrates the salient features of the subdisciplines of computer science into a comprehensive conceptual framework for the design of human-computer interfaces. He combines definitions, models, taxonomies, structures, and techniques with extensive references and citations to provide professors and students of all levels with a text and practical reference.
Certifiable Software Applications 3 by Jean-Louis Boulanger Pdf
Certifiable Software Applications 3: Downward Cycle describes the descending phase of the creation of a software application, detailing specification phases, architecture, design and coding, and important concepts on modeling and implementation. For coding, code generation and/or manual code production strategies are explored. As applications are coded, a presentation of programming languages and their impact on certifiability is included.

The Impact of Case Technology on Software Processes by Daniel E Cooke Pdf
This review volume consists of articles concerning CASE technology and research as discussed from two perspectives. For the most part, the available CASE technology is intended to automate certain phases of the software development life cycle. The book contains articles which focus on how the current technology alters the nature of software engineering efforts. Papers which delve into the knowledge a software engineer needs to possess and how the software engineer's work content has or may change are included. Cultural as well as technical considerations are discussed. The current CASE technology exists to automate phases of the software development life cycle, thus affecting software development in the short term, but we cannot ignore the CASE research efforts toward a higher generation language. Such a language should affect software development in the long term. Papers suggesting how these languages may alter the nature of software engineering in the future are presented.
