This book covers an introduction to convex optimization, one of the powerful and tractable optimization problems that can be efficiently solved on a computer. The goal of the book is to help develop a sense of what convex optimization is, and how it can be used in a widening array of practical contexts with a particular emphasis on Machine Learning. The first part of the book covers core concepts of convex sets, convex functions, and related basic definitions that serve understanding convex optimization and its corresponding models. The second part deals with one very useful theory, called duality, which enables us to: (1) gain algorithmic insights; and (2) obtain an approximate solution to non-convex optimization problems which are often difficult to solve. The last part focuses on modern applications in Machine Learning and Deep Learning. We employ Python as a major programming platform. To solve traditional convex optimization problems such as linear program, least squares, and semi-definite program, we utilize an easy-to-use and high-level language, CVXPY, running in Python. To implement Machine Learning and Deep Learning algorithms, we employ TensorFlow, one of the most popular Deep Learning frameworks.

Numerical methods are vital to the practice of chemical engineering, allowing for the solution of real-world problems. Written in a concise and practical format, this textbook introduces readers to the numerical methods required in the discipline of chemical engineering and enables them to validate their solutions using both Python and Simulink. Numerical analysts and mathematicians use a variety of tools to develop numerical methods for solving mathematical problems. The most crucial idea mentioned earlier, which includes all mathematical problems, is to change a particular problem into one that can be easily solved. Other ideas vary about the type of mathematical problem that was solved.

The computational foundations of Artificial Intelligence (AI) are supported by two comer stones: logics and Machine Leaming. Computationallogic has found its realization in a number of frameworks for logic-based approaches to knowledge representation and automated reasoning, such as Logic Program­ ming, Answer Set Programming, Constraint Logic Programming, Descrip­tion Logics, and Temporal Logics. Machine Leaming, and its recent evolution to Deep Leaming, has a huge number of applications in video surveillance, social media services, Big Data analysis, weather predictions, spam filtering, online customer support, etc. Since its birth, the field of Probabilistic Logic Programming has seen a steady increase of activity, with many proposals for languages and algorithms for inference and learning. The intended audience of the book are researchers in Computer Science and AI that want to getan overview of PLP. However, it can also be used by students, especially graduate, to get acquainted with the topic, and by practitioners that would like to get more details on the inner workings of methods.

The book "Concurrent, Parallel, and Distributed Computing" offers an excellent overview of the various areas of the computing field. There is a lot of overlap between the words "concurrent computing," "parallel computing," and "distributed computing," and there is no obvious differentiation between them. The same system can be described as "parallel" and "distributed"; in a typical distributed system, the processors run concurrently in parallel.The content in the book is presented in such a way that even a reader with no prior knowledge of computers may understand it and become acquainted with the fundamental concepts of computing. It offers numerous small examples, demonstration materials, and sample exercises that teachers can use to teach parallel programming principles to students who have just recently been introduced to basic programming concepts. It focuses on Python multiprocessing features like fork/join threading, message passing, sharing resources between threads, and using locks. Parallelism's utility can be seen in applications like searching, sorting, and simulations. Students and researchers can get an accessible and comprehensive explanation of the concepts, guidelines, and, in particular, the complex instrumentation techniques used in computing.

Data structure and algorithms are two of the most important aspects of Computer science. Data structure and algorithms help in understanding the nature of the problem at a deeper level and thereby a better understanding of the world. Learning data structure and algorithms will help you become a better programmer. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the modern study of computer algorithms. It presents many algorithms and covers them in considerable depth, which makes their design and analysis accessible to all levels of readers. This book provides with an enjoyable introduction to the field of algorithms. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the modern study of computer algorithms. It presents many algorithms and covers them in considerable depth, which makes their design and analysis accessible to all levels of readers. We have tried to keep explanations elementary without sacrificing depth of coverage or accuracy. Each chapter presents an algorithm, a design technique, an application area, or a related topic. Algorithms are described in English and in a “pseudocode” designed to be readable by anyone who has done a little programming. The book contains over 300 pages with facts and figures illustrating how the algorithms work. Since we emphasize efficiency as a design criterion, we include careful analyzes of the running times of all our algorithms.

Optimization for Learning and Control Comprehensive resource providing a masters’ level introduction to optimization theory and algorithms for learning and control. Optimization for Learning and Control describes how optimization is used in these domains, giving a thorough introduction to both Unsupervised Learning, Supervised Learning, and Reinforcement Learning, with an emphasis on optimization methods for large-scale learning and control problems. Several applications areas are also discussed, including signal processing, system identification, optimal control, and Machine Learning. Today, most of the material on the optimization aspects of Deep Learning that is accessible for students at a Masters’ level is focused on surface-level computer programming; deeper knowledge about the optimization methods and the trade-offs that are behind these methods is not provided. The objective of this book is to make this scattered knowledge, currently mainly available in publications in academic journals, accessible for Masters’ students in a coherent way. The focus is on basic algorithmic principles and trade-offs.

Remote software development work is the "new normal" and that won't change anytime soon. But conventional distributed agile software development attempts to be too "synchronous" to support today's remote teams. Too many meetings, ceremonies, and rituals quickly become unsustainable when teams are spread across multiple time zones. The result: burnout, constant interruptions, poor work-life balance, greater frustration, and workplaces where few people can truly thrive. In The Async-First Playbook, Thoughtworks principal project manager Sumeet Gayathri Moghe addresses the problem head-on, revamping agile to embed remote-native, asynchronous work practices that fit the realities of remote development.
