The main theme of this book is recent progress in structure-preserving algorithmsfor solving initial value problems of oscillatory differential equations arising in avariety of research areas， such as astronomy， theoretical physics， electronics， quan-tum mechanics and engineering. It systematically describes the latest advances in thedevelopment of structure-preserving integrators for oscillatory differential equa-tions， such as structure-preserving exponential integrators， functionally fitted energy-preserving integrators， exponential Fourier collocation methods， trigono-metric collocation methods， and symmetric and arbitrarily high-order time-steppingmethods. Most of the material presented here is drawn from the recent literature.Theoretical analysis of the newly developed schemes shows their advantages in thecontext of structure preservation. All the new methods introduced in this book areproven to be highly effective compared with the well-known codes in the scientificliterature. This

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Mining Web Data, WEBKDD 2005, held in Chicago, IL, USA in August 2005 in conjunction with the 11th ACM SIGKDD International Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining, KDD 2005. The 9 revised full papers presented together with a detailed preface went through two rounds of reviewing and improvement and were carfully selected for inclusion in the book. The enhanced papers show that Web mining techniques and applications have to more effectively integrate a variety of types of data across multiple channels and from different sources in addition to usage, such as content, structure, and semantics. Thus a next generation of intelligent applications is stimulated for more effective exploitation and mining of multi-faceted data. The papers express also the need to study and design robust recommender systems that can resist various malicious manipulations.

Professional Ajax 2nd Edition provides a developer-level tutorial of Ajax techniques, patterns, and use cases. The book begins by exploring the roots of Ajax, covering how the evolution of the web and new technologies directly led to the development of Ajax techniques. A detailed discussion of how frames, JavaScript, cookies, XML, and XMLHttp requests (XHR) related to Ajax is included. After this introduction, the book moves on to cover the implementation of specific Ajax techniques. Request brokers such as hidden frames, dynamic *s, and XHR are compared and contrasted, explaining when one method should be used over another. To make this discussion clearer, a brief overview of HTTP requests and responses is included.
