whitepaper Introduction to the Plazmic Content Developer's Kit for Rich Media Applications2006-04-03 Research In Motion
  The Plazmic Content Developer's Kit for BlackBerry (Plazmic CDK) is a development environment in which one can build a rich visual client for an application or visual browser page. A person can use the Composer and the Media Engine simulator tools to create and test the vector graphics and animations for BlackBerry devices. This paper provides overview information about the Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG), Plazmic CDK development tools, content in PME format, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for developing PME content. The paper also provides two code examples that incorporate content in PME format.

whitepaper Beyond PageRank: Machine Learning for Static Ranking2006-03-08 International World Wide Web Conference Committee
  Since the publication of Brin and Page's paper on PageRank, many in the Web community have depended on PageRank for the static (query-independent) ordering of Web pages. This paper shows that one can significantly outperform PageRank using features that are independent of the link structure of the Web. The paper gains a further boost in accuracy by using data on the frequency at which users visit Web pages and uses RankNet, a ranking machine learning algorithm, to combine these and other static features based on anchor text and domain characteristics.

whitepaper Web-Enabling a Client/Server OLAP Application Using SAS/IntrNet Software's MDDB Report Viewer2006-03-04 SAS Institute
  SAS/IntrNet's MDDB Report Viewer (MRV) enables users to obtain multidimensional reports and graphs via their web browsers. The authors' chose to web-enable an existing client/server OLAP application using the MRV because of the appropriate fit, the expected quick conversion time, and the additional functionality provided. During the development effort the authors' realized that they needed to customize the MRV in order to replicate an important feature of the client/server application. They also wished to alter the default appearance of the MRV. Qualex Consulting Services, Inc. provided the technical expertise in the development of these MRV enhancements.

whitepaper SAS/IntrNet 9.1: Application Dispatcher - Second Edition2006-03-01 SAS Institute
  Application Dispatcher, a SAS/IntrNet component, is a Web gateway from a Web browser to the power of SAS processing. This gateway, written by using the Common Gateway Interface (CGI), provides access to data in combination with a powerful array of analysis and presentation procedures. SAS software does not have to be installed on your machine! To access and analyze data, a Web user completes an HTML form by selecting items and filling in fields. When the user selects the option to submit the information, the Dispatcher passes the information through the CGI program to a waiting SAS session. SAS software processes the information by using the identified program.

whitepaper Web-Enable Your SAS Applications2006-02-28 SAS Institute
  The objective of this paper is to demonstrate how a production SAS/AF software application, which was originally written in 1993 on MVS, has become Web-enabled and serves more than 2,000 unique global users, without having had its core application code rewritten. This paper demonstrates how this application evolved using SAS Component Language (SCL) (formerly called Screen Control Language) classes, and how SCL classes are now used in SAS/IntrNet Application Dispatchers, e-mail gateways, and Application Programming Interfaces (APIs).

whitepaper Using Design Patterns to Integrate SAS/IntrNet With Web Technologies2006-02-28 SAS Institute
  Design Patterns are reusable design solutions for commonly occurring problems in software engineering. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how SAS developers can use design patterns in order to write more extensible and reusable code while deriving more enjoyment in the process. The authors' determine that SAS/IntrNet is a particularly suitable solution for implementing design patterns as it can be used to integrate many Internet technologies. Furthermore, by decoupling presentation and data, the authors' also conclude that design patterns produce more robust and well-designed SAS applications.

whitepaper Web-Site Analytics - A Land Mine or a Gold Mine?2006-02-28 SAS Institute
  This paper is a practical guide to avoiding the hidden land mines of Web-site analysis and providing a gold mine of information about an individual's Web site and its use. Technical issues related to using the Web log and other data to understand activity on a person's Web site are discussed. This paper also outlines major steps for implementing a Web analytics solution to provide guidance about an individual's Web content. Topics include data accuracy, suggestions for automating processing, domain experience on issues such as tagging, cookies, standards and definitions, and specific practices based on a real-world implementation of SAS Web Analytics.

whitepaper SAS Web Analytics 5.2: What's New?2006-02-28 SAS Institute
  This paper describes and demonstrates some of the new features of SAS Web Analytics 5.2. SAS Web Analytics collects, analyzes, predicts, and reports Web-site visitor behavior. This information helps businesses better understand the effectiveness of their online (and, potentially, offline) initiatives, and the information optimizes their Web site and business practices.

whitepaper Web Site Management: Designing and Indexing an Accessible Website2006-02-27 University of Cambridge
  Web site design has three main aspects: planning the site, designing and building it, maintaining information and structure. To make a website usable and accessible, much of the effort needs to go into the planning and designing stages. Retrofitting accessibility may be possible but is rarely a total success. The planning and design stages are also the places to think about including metadata, and what the words on your site are actually saying about your content. Along with a good html editors many of the tests listed in the next section can be easily accomplished by using either Firefox or Mozilla and the web developer toolbar.

whitepaper Mosaic Layouts: How and Why to Avoid Creating Puzzle-Looking Websites2006-03-23 06:24:37 SoftLogica
  When your visitors browse a webpage, their browsing experience depends on many things that you already know - connection speed, computer hardware and software, internet provider are just a few. However, the role that good web design plays in browsing speed is often under-recognized. Pictures and graphics as a navigation aid are often a powerful 'hook' for customers, and can easily enhance a browsing session. When incorrectly used, they can create bottlenecks that hamper the message your site needs to send.
