Mastering Dart
Starting with a discussion about the basic features of Dart, we will dive into the more complicated concepts such as generics, annotation with reflection, errors and exceptions, which will help us improve our code. Moving on, you will learn how and when to create objects and also advanced techniques that will help you execute asynchronous code. You will also learn about the collection framework and how to communicate with the different programs written in JavaScript using Dart. This book will show you how to add internalization support to your web applications and how i18n and l10n access can be embedded into your code to design applications that can be localized easily. You will be shown how to organize client-to-server communication and how different HTML5 features can be used in Dart. Finally, this book will show you how you can store data locally, break the storage limit, and prevent security issues in your web application. ...

Beginning Big Data with Power BI and Excel 2013
In Beginning Big Data with Power BI and Excel 2013, you will learn to solve business problems by tapping the power of Microsoft's Excel and Power BI to import data from NoSQL and SQL databases and other sources, create relational data models, and analyze business problems through sophisticated dashboards and data-driven maps. While Beginning Big Data with Power BI and Excel 2013 covers prominent tools such as Hadoop and the NoSQL databases, it recognizes that most small and medium-sized businesses don't have the Big Data processing needs of a Netflix, Target, or Facebook. Instead, it shows how to import data and use the self-service analytics available in Excel with Power BI. As you'll see through the book's numerous case examples, these tools - which you already know how to use - can perform many of the same functions as the higher-end Apache tools many people believe are required to carry out in Big Data projects. ...
