Moderne Desktop-User-Interfaces müssen sich heute an mobilen Apps und modernen Webapplikationen messen. Das Standard-UI-Toolkit von Eclipse 4.x ist SWT. Durch die modulare Architektur und die Trennung von Application-Modell und Rendering Engine ist es möglich, SWT durch JavaFX zu ersetzten. Das erste Kapitel stellt einen generischen Rendering-Ansatz im Detail vor und berichtet über den aktuellen Stand der JavaFX-2.x/Eclipse-4.x-Integration. Ab JDK 1.8 bekommt JavaFX ein verbessertes 3D-API, das es relativ einfach macht, sich virtuelle 3-D-Welten zu erschaffen. Im zweiten Kapitel geht es entsprechend darum, ein Programm zu entwerfen, das baumähnliche Strukturen auf den Bildschirm zeichnet - keine abstrakten, sondern tatsächliche, organische Bäume.

<p>This extensively reworked 2nd edition of the book includes ten new chapters. It also features an updated discussion of simulation software tools, covering topics such as simulating complex and / or expensive amplifier structures with the free LTspice software by developing a broad range of additional simulation models, especially those for triodes and transformers.</p> <p>The book adopts the structure used in <i>The Sound of Silence</i> books, with the first part, Basics - Calculations and Simulations, providing deep simulation-triggered insights into the gain and noise mechanisms of differential amplifiers, BJTs, resistors, and triodes. The second part then discusses the RIAA Phono-Amp Engine II, describing all the necessary design, simulation, calculation, construction and measurement processes for this multi-functional MC amplifier.</p> <p>The third part, Knowledge Transfer, presents new ideas on draft designs of the linear low-noise MC input stages (also an extremely low-noise one) and a range of practical measurement tools. Additionally, it includes a chapter on MM amplifiers and their noise production, and offers some surprising solutions. The brand new and extensive chapter on all the simulation models developed and used in the book rounds-out the voyage through the jungle of compromises, allowing best-in-class balanced MC phono-amplifiers to be produced.</p> <p>Lastly, the book also features an extensive index, and free downloads of all Mathcad worksheets are available on Springer's Extra Materials website (extra.springer.com).</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p></p>

The future of music archiving and search engines lies in deep learning and big data. Music information retrieval algorithms automatically analyze musical features like timbre, melody, rhythm or musical form, and artificial intelligence then sorts and relates these features. At the first International Symposium on Computational Ethnomusicological Archiving held on November 9 to 11, 2017 at the Institute of Systematic Musicology in Hamburg, Germany, a new Computational Phonogram Archiving standard was discussed as an interdisciplinary approach. Ethnomusicologists, music and computer scientists, systematic musicologists as well as music archivists, composers and musicians presented tools, methods and platforms and shared fieldwork and archiving experiences in the fields of musical acoustics, informatics, music theory as well as on music storage, reproduction and metadata. The Computational Phonogram Archiving standard is also in high demand in the music market as a search engine for music consumers. This book offers a comprehensive overview of the field written by leading researchers around the globe. <p></p> <p></p>
