This book shows hows how high-performance application developers can use the power of GPUs using Fortran. Gregory Ruetsch and Massimiliano Fatica presume no prior parallel computing experience, and cover the basics along with best practices for efficient GPU computing using CUDA Fortran.

This book looks at how to use Terraform features to develop efficient cloud infrastructure. Mark Tinderholt begins by introducing Terraform's architecture, both as a command-line tool and a programming language, HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL). Later chapters look at best practices, usage, and architectural patterns and how to implement Terraform on virtual machines (VMs), Docker/Kubernetes, Serverless, and multiple cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, and GCP.

This all-practical beginner's guide is full of step-by-step guidance on everything from graphics and music, to enemy AI, to the 6502 Assembler language you need to get the most out of the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). Tony Cruise explains modern emulators and breaks down technical elements into step-by-step instructions and diagrams.

This book provides a tutorial and reference for experienced programmers who want to write robust Java code for real-world applications. In this volume Cay S. Horstmann focuses on the advanced topics that a programmer needs to know including coverage of enterprise programming, networking, databases, security, internationalization, and native methods. This edition has been revised to cover the new features and enhancements in the Java 21 long-term support release. 

In this book, subtitled "Defending Against Abuses, Bots and Fraud on the Internet", David Sénécal delivers a presentation of the contemporary bot threat landscape and the latest defense strategies used by leading companies to protect themselves. Readers are told how attackers think, what motivates them, how their strategies have evolved over time, and how website owners have changed their own behaviors to keep up with their adversaries. 

Subtitled "How the tech industry solves fake problems, hoards idle workers, and makes doomed bets with other people's money", this book argues that the tech industry has a tendency to go crazy. Emmanuel Maggiori decodes tech’s hysteria and explains why we all pay the price for it.

In this guide to building real-world web applications with Python, William Vincent,a former Django Software Foundation Board member, takes a practical approach, introducing concepts through six projects designed to simulate real-world scenarios. From a Hello World website to a message board application, a blogging platform, and a newspaper CRM, readers learn about Django's architecture and how to add new functionality step-by-step.

This book examines Microsoft's data innovation and investment, including change management, aligning with business needs, enhancing data value, and cultivating a data-driven culture.  Aleksejs Plotnikovs highlights the importance of prioritizing genuine business needs to propel necessary modernizations through change management practices, and looks at how data-driven innovation does not solely reside within central IT engineering teams but also among the data's business owners.

Subtitled "Learn MicroPython Coding and Electronics", this book will teach you Python programming and some basic electronics without assuming any prior knowledge of either subject. Simon Monk initially focusses on Python programming, building up a Morse Code example. The book is suitable for most ESP32 boards, but concentrates on the most popular ESP32 Lite and the ESP32 DevKit 1. In the chapters on electronics, breadboard layouts are provided for both of these boards.

Written for experienced programmers looking for in-depth coverage of the Java language and platform, this revised and updated edition now covers Java 21. Cay S. Horstmann's sample programs demonstrate almost every language and library feature, as well as the newest capabilities introduced in Java 21. This first of two volumes offers a detailed treatment of fundamental Java programming topics, including object-oriented programming, reflection and proxies, interfaces and inner classes, exception handling, generics, collections, lambda expressions, concurrency, annotations, and the Java Platform Module System.

This book is a guide to implementing SOLID principles and refactor legacy code using the modern features and approaches of C++, the standard library, Boost library collection, and Guidelines Support Library by Microsoft. Dmitry Danilov begins by describing the essential elements of writing clean code and discussing object-oriented programming in C++. He then explores the design principles of software testing with examples of using unit testing frameworks such as Google Test. The book also guides you through applying automated tools for static and dynamic code analysis using Clang Tools.

This book demystifies the world of radio through a dozen innovative projects, enabling readers to build inexpensive radio circuits such as transmitters and receivers, remote controls, and a working metal detector. Fredrik Jansson and Charles Platt also adapt radio concepts for the Raspberry Pi Pico, updating classic concepts with contemporary tools for accuracy and power.
