On competition / Michael E. Porter

No review available on this record. Title : On competition Material Type: printed text Authors: Michael E. Porter, Author Publisher: Boston, MA : Harvard Business School Press Publication Date: 2008 Pagination: xxxi, 544 p. Layout: ill. Size: 24 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-1-422-12696-7 General note: Includes index (p. 527-541) Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Descriptors: Comparative advantage Competition, international Environmental policy Industrial policy Social policy Class number: 382.1042 Abstract: For the past two decades, Michael Porter's work has towered over the field of competitive strategy. On Competition, Updated and Expanded Edition brings together more than a dozen of Porter's landmark articles from the Harvard Business Review. Five are new to this edition, including the 2008 update to his classic "The Five Competitive Forces That Shape Strategy," as well as new work on health care, philanthropy, corporate social responsibility, and CEO leadership. This collection captures Porter's unique ability to bridge theory and practice. Each of the articles has not only shaped thinking, but also redefined the work of practitioners in its respective field. In an insightful new introduction, Porter relates each article to the whole of his thinking about competition and value creation, and traces how that thinking has deepened over time. This collection is organized by topic, allowing the reader easy access to the wide range of Porter's work. Parts I and II present the frameworks for which Porter is best known frameworks that address how companies, as well as nations and regions, gain and sustain competitive advantage. Part III shows how strategic thinking can address society's most pressing challenges, from environmental sustainability to improving health care delivery. Part IV explores how both nonprofits and corporations can create value for society more effectively by applying strategy principles to philanthropy. Part V explores the link between strategy and leadership.

Seven languages in seven weeks / Bruce A. Tate

No review available on this record. Title : Seven languages in seven weeks : a pragmatic guide to learning programming languages Material Type: printed text Authors: Bruce A. Tate, Author Publisher: Dallas : The Pragmatic Bookshelf Publication Date: 2010 Pagination: xvii, 317 p. Layout: ill. Size: 24 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-1-934356-59-3 General note: Includes index (p. [299]-317) Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Descriptors: Programming (Electronic computers) Programming languages Class number: 005.13 Abstract: This book has an audacious goal : to present a meaningful exploration of seven languages within a single book. Rather than serve as a complete reference or installation guide, Seven Languages hits what's essential and unique about each language. Moreover, this approach will help teach you how to grok new languages. For each language, you'll solve a nontrivial problem, using techniques that show off the language's most important features. As the book proceeds, you'll discover the strengths and weaknesses of the languages, while dissecting the process of learning languages quickly for example, finding the typing and programming models, decision structures, and how you interact with them. Among this group of seven, you'll explore the most critical programming models of our time. Learn the dynamic typing that makes Ruby, Python, and Perl so flexible and compelling. Understand the underlying prototype system that's at the heart of JavaScript. See how pattern matching in Prolog shaped the development of Scala and Erlang. Discover how pure functional programming in Haskell is different from the Lisp family of languages, including Clojure. Contents note: Introduction; Ruby; Io; Prolog; Scala; Erlang; Clojure; Haskell; Wrap-up; Record link: https://library.seeu.edu.mk/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=17259

The E-commerce book / Steffano Korper

No review available on this record. Title : The E-commerce book : building the E-empire Material Type: printed text Authors: Steffano Korper, Author ; Juanita Ellis, Author Edition statement: 2nd edition Publisher: San Diego : Academic Press Publication Date: 2001 Pagination: xiv, 248 p. Size: 24 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-0-12-421161-2 General note: Includes index (p. 241-248) Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Descriptors: Electronic commerce Class number: 658.84 Abstract: What started as a curious exclusive property of the IT-initiated and the technologically hip is now a bona fide mainstream revolution embraced by prime ministers, pornographers, and poets. And in there, deep in the engine room, is business, buying in and getting bullish. Where would the modern manager be without an "e-commerce solution"? Problem is, the expertise that built the bricks-and-mortar business doesn't translate into success on the Internet gold rush. Half-term report for traditional businesses? "What your company lacks in e-skill, it makes up for in enthusiasm." Must try harder, boys and girls. The E-Commerce Book is a paper-and-ink-solution, but don't let that put you off. It promises to transform buy-in and bullishness into results. Korper and Ellis set their out stall early on, their goal "to give each reader the right tools to jump head-first into the pool of e-commerce and to find it comfortable and deep with opportunity." What you get is a thorough, no-nonsense guide to launching and maintaining a business on the Internet, covering all points from sales and marketing to technology and architecture, stopping at globalization and off-the-shelf e-commerce solutions along the way. Contents note: Setting the Vision; Know Your Customers; Marketing and Branding; First Impressions May Be Everlasting; Keep Your Customers; Fulfillment Channels That Work; Choose Your Payment Systems; Know Your Infrastructure; Selecting the Right Commerce Package; Secure Your Investment : Security Threats and Solutions; Get Ready for Wireless!; Record link: https://library.seeu.edu.mk/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=17258
