Book Description
"Paws Goes to the Library" is a children's story about a dog who was born with GYNORMOUS paws. He goes to the library to research how he can get his paws to shrink. He wants them to like his other doggie friends' paws. As he is searching for a book he stumbles across a little boy struggling to read. The boy and dog become fast friends. The little boy ends up reading to the dog weekly and resting his head on his big furry paws! As word spreads about this new friendship, the other kids in town decide they want to visit the library and read to a furry pet too! The storyline is based on an actual library reading program called Paws. Trained dogs and their handlers visit the library and children spend time reading to the dog. The children gain confidence in their reading skills and actually love to read to a dog who is non judgmental. The dogs just want to curl up and listen to a little voice read to them and the kids have shown remarkable improvement in their reading skills as a result! The book has illustrations and also real life photos of children reading to dogs at the Pleasanton Library in Pleasanton, California.

Grid Computing: Software Environments and Tools
Author: Omer F. Rana
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1846283396
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 358
Book Description
Grid Computing requires the use of software that can divide and farm out pieces of a program to as many as several thousand computers. This book explores processes and techniques needed to create a successful Grid infrastructure. Leading researchers in Europe and the US look at the development of specialist tools and environments which will encourage the convergence of the parallel programming, distributed computing and data management communities. Specific topics covered include: An overview of structural and behavioural properties of Computer Grid applications Discussion of alternative programming techniques Case studies displaying the potential of Computer Grids in solving real problems This book is unique in its outline of the needs of Computational Grids both in integration of high-end resources using OGSA/Globus, and the loose integration of Peer-2-Peer/Entropia/United Devices. Readers will gain an insight on the limitations of existing approaches as well as the standardisation activities currently taking place.
