Systems Software: Essential Concepts provides students with an accessible introduction to the knowledge and fundamentals that are necessary to understand software and hardware. The text also reviews implementation techniques to familiarize students with more complex software, such as operating systems and compilers, and prepare them to take more advance courses within the discipline. The book is divided into two key topical areas: compiler fundamentals and the basic mechanisms and data structures required to support operating systems. In the compiler section, students learn about the runtime environment, how to implement a scanner and a symbol table, and how to implement parsing and code generation for a virtual machine. To emphasize practical application, students are challenged to implement a small compiler. In the operating system domain, students gain an understanding of the interrupt mechanism, process and thread implementation, and process synchronization.

There are many textbooks on algorithms focusing on big-O notation and basic design principles. This book offers a unique approach to taking the design and analyses to the level of predictable practical efficiency, discussing core and classic algorithmic problems that arise in the development of big data applications, and presenting elegant solutions of increasing sophistication and efficiency. Solutions are analyzed within the classic RAM model, and the more practically significant external-memory model that allows one to perform I/O-complexity evaluations. Chapters cover various data types, including integers, strings, trees, and graphs, algorithmic tools such as sampling, sorting, data compression, and searching in dictionaries and texts, and lastly, recent developments regarding compressed data structures. Algorithmic solutions are accompanied by detailed pseudocode and many running examples, thus enriching the toolboxes of students, researchers, and professionals interested in effective and efficient processing of Big Data.

Ideal for working programmers new to Java, this best-selling book guides you through the language features and APIs of Java 21. Through fun, compelling, and realistic examples, author Marc Loy introduces you to Java fundamentals, including its class libraries, programming techniques, and idioms, with an eye toward building real applications. This updated sixth edition expands the content to cover lambdas and streams, and shows you how to use a functional paradigm in Java. You'll learn about the latest Java features introduced since the book's fifth edition, from JDK 15 through 21. You'll also take a deep dive into the virtual threads introduced as Project Loom in Java 19 and become familiar with the public release of JDK 21 LTS.

A pattern language for event sourced applications and reliable distributed systems. Examples are written in the Python programming language. Now includes event-oriented introductions to the pattern language scheme of Christopher Alexander, the process philosophy of Alfred North Whitehead, and the person-centred psychology of Rogers and Rosenberg. This book presents a coherent pattern language for event sourced applications and reliable distributed systems. The main chapters of the book are organised in three parts. Part 1 describes how to make an event sourced domain model. Part 2 describes how to make an event sourced application. Part 3 describes how to make a reliable distributed system from a set of event sourced applications. Each part of the book has five chapters. Each chapter has complete working examples written in the Python programming language. The examples in later chapters build on the examples in previous chapters.

Being part of the IT industry for over three decades, I’ve witnessed many hiring professionals struggle to employ the right software developer for any defined position. They find this process challenging for predominantly two reasons. Being part of Human Resources, many hiring managers are not well versed with the exact requirements needed from a tech developer for developing a specific Android app. In the tech know-how category, skilled Android developers must have programming skills that include the knowledge of Java and Kotlin, database knowhow, APIs (Application Programming Interfaces), integrations, design, Android SDK (Software Development Kit), and Android Studio. In the soft skills’ category, good Android software developers must possess abilities like teamwork, problem-solving, learnability, presentation, and excellent communication skills.

Are you a graphical learner? Do you like jаvascript, TypeScript, or Solidity? Then this eBook might exactly be what you are looking for. After almost two years of posting infographics on Twitter, it is finally time to release the most important ones of them in a way that anyone can keep them for future reference. This eBook contains over 100 of my infographics that I regularly post on Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram, including explanations diving deeper or explaining features a little more.

Today's social and behavioral researchers increasingly need to know: "What do I do with all this data?" This book provides the skills needed to analyze and report large, complex data sets using machine learning tools, and to understand published machine learning articles. Techniques are demonstrated using actual data (Big Five Inventory, early childhood learning, and more), with a focus on the interplay of statistical algorithm, data, and theory. The identification of heterogeneity, measurement error, regularization, and decision trees are also emphasized. The book covers basic principles as well as a range of methods for analyzing univariate and multivariate data (factor analysis, structural equation models, and mixed-effects models). Analysis of text and social network data is also addressed. End-of-chapter "Computational Time and Resources" sections include discussions of key R packages; the companion website provides R programming scripts and data for the book's examples.

Humanized AI (HAI), emerging as the next of the AI waves, refers to artificial social beings that are very close to humans in various aspects, beings who are machine-race humans, not digital slaves. Foundation, Architecture, and Prototyping of HAI deploy a novel smalldata approach to vertically explore the spectrum of HAI. Different from the popular big-data philosophy that is based on the rigid notion that the connotation of each concept is fixed and the same to everyone, this book treats understanding as a process from simple to complex, and uses the similarity principle to effectively deal with novelties. Combining the efficiency of the Behaviorists’ goal-driven approach and the flexibility of a Constructivists’ approach, both the architecture of HAI and the philosophical discussions arising from it are elaborated upon.

Tidying up messy software is a must. And that means breaking up the code to make it more readable, and using guard clauses and helping functions to make it understandable. In this practical guide, author Kent Beck, creator of Extreme Programming and pioneer of software patterns, suggests when and where you might apply tidyings in your code. Instead of trying to master tidying all at once, this book lets you try out a few examples that make sense for your problem. If you have a big function containing many lines of code, you'll learn how to logically divide it into smaller chunks. Along the way, you'll learn the theory behind software design: coupling, cohesion, discounted cash flows, and optionality.
