If you’re familiar with functional programming basics and want to gain a much deeper understanding, this in-depth guide takes you beyond syntax and demonstrates how you need to think in a new way. Software architect Neal Ford shows intermediate to advanced developers how functional coding allows you to step back a level of...
“This book is a critically needed resource for the newly released Apache Hadoop 2.0, highlighting YARN as the significant breakthrough that broadens Hadoop beyond the MapReduce paradigm.”
—From the Foreword by Raymie Stata, CEO of Altiscale
Long gone are the days where the security of your critical data could be
protected by security guards, cipher locks, and an ID badge worn by all
employees. As the computing paradigm is continually changing with shared
resources and mobility, firewalls and antivirus software are also not enough
to protect critical assets. This...
Over the last decade, software product line engineering (SPLE) has emerged as one of the most promising software development paradigms for increasing productivity in IT-related industries. Detailing the various aspects of SPLE implementation in different domains, Applied Software Product Line Engineering documents best...
Node.js is a JavaScript platform using an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model allowing users to build fast and scalable data-intensive applications that run in real time.
This book gives you an excellent starting point and goes straight to the heart of developing web applications with Node.js. You will go from a rudimentary...
A timely publication providing coverage of radio resource management, mobility management and standardization in heterogeneous cellular networks
The topic of heterogeneous cellular networks has gained momentum in industry and the research community, attracting the attention of standardization bodies such as 3GPP LTE and IEEE...
Awareness of lysomal storage disorders needs to be raised and there is very substantial pharmaceutical interest to do so. The disorders are often viewed as obscurities but in fact they are treatable. Enzyme replacement therapy is available for four of the disorders and will be available for a further three disorders in the course of the next...
Every day decision making and decision making in complex human-centric systems are characterized by imperfect decision-relevant information. Main drawback of the existing decision theories is namely incapability to deal with imperfect information and modeling vague preferences. Actually, a paradigm of non-numerical probabilities in decision...
JavaScript is the behavior, the third pillar in today's paradigm that looks at web pages as something that consists of clearly distinguishable parts: content (HTML), presentation (CSS) and behavior (JavaScript). Using JavaScript, you can create not only web pages but also desktop widgets, browser and application extensions, and other...
Using the tools of complexity theory, Stephen Judd develops a formal description of associative learning in connectionist networks. He rigorously exposes the computational difficulties in training neural networks and explores how certain design principles will or will not make the problems easier.
Design of microprocessor and/or multimicroprocessor systems represents a continuous struggle; success (if achieved) lasts infinitesimally long and disappears forever, unless a new struggle (with unpredictable results) starts immediately. In other words, it is a continuous sur-vival process, which is the main motto of this book.
