The authors, all leaders in the data quality field for many years, discuss how to make the economic case for data quality and the importance of getting an organization’s leaders on board. They outline different approaches for assessing data, both subjectively (by users) and objectively (using sampling and other techniques). They describe real problems and solutions, including efforts to find the root causes of data quality problems at a healthcare organization and data quality initiatives taken by a large teaching hospital. They address setting company policy on data quality and, finally, they consider future challenges on the journey to data quality.

An emphasis on hands-on practice guides students, as the text introduces topics ranging from configuration and layout to accessibility techniques and ethical considerations. The 8th Edition contains updated coverage of HTML5 and CSS, expanded coverage of designing for mobile devices, and more.

IP Telephony: Deploying Voice-over-IP Protocols:

• Assumes a working knowledge of IP and networking and addresses the technical aspects of real-time communication over IP.
• Presents a high level overview of packet media transport technologies, covering all the major VoIP protocols – SIP, H323 and MGCP
• Details specific strategies to design services for public networks where endpoints cannot be trusted and can be behind firewalls.
