Dedication

Technology has its time; knowledge is timeless.

Technowledge boosts Technowledge.

To those who idealize, conceive, standardize, implement, test, operate, main-

tain, upgrade; to those professionals, for whose knowledge and work we owe

the technology and all it conveys—to those technowledgers —I pay my most

sincere tribute.

I dedicate this book to my beloved family. Thank you, Maria Nıdia, my pre-

cious wife, and thank you, Alexandre, Helena, Carolina, Ricardo, Vinıcius,

and Elisa, my wonderful children, for your love, patience, and unconditional

support.
