“When you begin using multi-threading throughout an application, the importance of clean architecture and design is critical. . . . This places an emphasis on understanding not only the platform’s capabilities but also emerging best practices. Joe does a great job interspersing best practices alongside theory...

As a cellular standard evolves, there are many variables that must be optimized. A few of these variables are directly related to higher throughput, increased user capacity, and in general improved system performance. The optimization techniques have involved higherorder modulation, improved multiple access (in both time and frequency), more...

When enterprise architects try to explain to people who are not enterprise architects what it is they do for a living, they almost invariably resort to using an analogy with the architecture of buildings, and describe enterprise architecture as a ‘kind of blueprint’.
