Its power to present information in ways not previously possible and its integration of resources, allow for the creation of rich learning environments. Perspectives on Multimedia: Communication, Media and Information Technology provides a critical examination of the latest multimedia developments and approaches, such as Interface Technology and QoS architectures.

The learning curve--World War I, World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Gulf War, and more recently the war on terror--has been steep. While climbing this curve, the U.S. has not only produced superior military aircraft in greater numbers than its foes, but has--in due course--out-trained them, too. This book provides a comprehensive historical survey of U.S. military training aircraft, including technical specifications, drawings and photographs of each type of fixed and rotary-wing design used over a 98-Training planesHistoryTraining planesDesign and constructionAirplanes, MilitaryUnited StatesHistoryAirplanes, MilitaryUnited StatesDesign and constructionTraining planesHistory.Training planesDesign and construction.Airplanes, MilitaryHistory.Airplanes, MilitaryDesign and construction.623.74/620973Johnson E.
