Scientific computing utilizes computers to aid in scientific tasks such as data processing and digital simulations, among others. The well-developed field of computational chemistry is part of scientific computing and focuses on utilizing computing to simulate chemical phenomena and calculate properties. However, there is less focus in the field of

This book is about dynamic programming and its applications in economics, finance, and adjacent fields. It brings together recent innovations in the theory of dynamic programming and provides applications and code that can help readers approach the research frontier. The book is aimed at graduate students and researchers, although most chapters are

Microsoft System Center 2012 R2 App Controller is uniquely positioned as both an enabler and a self-service vehicle for connecting clouds and implementing the hybrid computing model. In Microsoft's cloud computing solutions, both System Center and Windows Azure play critical roles. System Center can be used to transform enterprise IT from a device-

The System Center Operations Manager data warehouse stores many objects, making it possible to report on performance, availability, configuration, and security. You can use data collected by Operations Manager for issue tracking, awareness, planning, and forecasting, all of which are important factors for maintaining and managing your environment.

While containers, microservices, and distributed systems dominate discussions in the tech world, the majority of applications in use today still run monolithic architectures that follow traditional development processes. This practical book helps developers examine long-established Java-based models and demonstrates how to bring these monolithic ap

Turn your R code into packages that others can easily install and use. With this fully updated edition, developers and data scientists will learn how to bundle reusable R functions, sample data, and documentation together by applying the package development philosophy used by the team that maintains the "tidyverse" suite of packages. In the process

The "FreeBSD Architecture Handbook" book provides a comprehensive technical reference for the internal architecture and subsystems of the FreeBSD operating system. It details kernel internals including bootstrapping processes, locking mechanisms, and system initialization frameworks like SYSINIT. The handbook extensively covers security architectur

Today, Ada is heavily used in embedded real-time systems, many of which are safety critical. While Ada is and can be used as a general-purpose language, it will really shine in low-level applications: - Embedded systems with low memory requirements (no garbage collector allowed) - Direct interfacing with hardware - Soft or hard real-time systems -

With the ascent of DevOps, microservices, containers, and cloud-based development platforms, the gap between state-of-the-art solutions and the technology that enterprises typically support has greatly increased. But as Markus Eisele explains in this O'Reilly report, some enterprises are now looking to bridge that gap by building microservice-based

The application of open source principles and practices to create in-house software is taking off in the corporate world. Known as InnerSource, this development strategy lets development teams collaborate and share code to speed delivery and improve quality while helping to eliminate silos and bottlenecks. With this practical ebook, you'll explore
