A Structured Course of Short Projects For Young and New Coders.
This course was developed in response to demand from teachers and parents for a child-friendly course that:
engages students visually
avoids complicated technology setup
teaches programming and computer science concepts
Computer Vision: Principles, Algorithms, Applications, Learning (previously entitled Computer and Machine Vision) clearly and systematically presents the basic methodology of computer vision, covering the essential elements of the theory while emphasizing algorithmic and practical design constraints. This fully revised fifth edition has brought in more of the concepts and applications of computer vision, making it a very comprehensive and up-to-date text suitable for undergraduate and graduate students, researchers and R&D engineers working in this vibrant subject.
This textbook is about lower-level computer programming:machine language and assembly language, and how these languagesare used in the typical computer system. This is meant to givethe student a basic understanding of the fundamental concepts ofthe organization and operation of a computer. Even if the studentnever again programs in assembly language (and we would hope thatthey never have to!) it is important that they understand whatthe computer is doing at the machine language level. A goodunderstanding of computer organization translates into a betterunderstanding of the features and limitations of all computerfacilities, since all systems must eventually rest on theunderlying hardware machine. This text uses MIX, from Knuth’s “The Art of Computer Programming”.
All software design is composition: the act of breaking complex problems down into smaller problems and composing those solutions. Most developers have a limited understanding of compositional techniques. It’s time for that to change.
In “Composing Software”, Eric Elliott shares the fundamentals of composition, including both function composition and object composition, and explores them in the context of JavaScript. The book covers the foundations of both functional programming and object oriented programming to help the reader better understand how to build and structure complex applications using simple building blocks.
C# in Depth, Fourth Edition is your key to unlocking the powerful new features added to the language in C# 5, 6, and 7. Following the expert guidance of C# legend Jon Skeet, you’ll master asynchronous functions, expression-bodied members, interpolated strings, tuples, and much more.
The powerful, flexible C# programming language is the foundation of .NET development. Even after two decades of success, it’s still getting better! Exciting new features in C# 6 and 7 make it easier than ever to take on big data applications, cloud-centric web development, and cross-platform software using .NET Core. There’s never been a better time to learn C# in depth.
C# in Depth, Fourth Edition is a revised edition of the bestseller written by C# legend Jon Skeet. This authoritative and engaging guide is your key to unlocking this powerful language, including the new features of C# 6 and 7. In it, Jon introduces expression-bodied members, interpolated strings, pattern matching, and more. Real-world examples drive it all home. By the end of this awesome book, you’ll be writing C# code with skill, style, and confidence.
This book describes the essential components of the SCION secure Internet architecture, the first architecture designed foremost for strong security and high availability. Among its core features, SCION also provides route control, explicit trust information, multipath communication, scalable quality-of-service guarantees, and efficient forwarding. The book includes functional specifications of the network elements, communication protocols among these elements, data structures, and configuration files. In particular, the book offers a specification of a working prototype.
The authors provide a comprehensive description of the main design features for achieving a secure Internet architecture. They facilitate the reader throughout, structuring the book so that the technical detail gradually increases, and supporting the text with a glossary, an index, a list of abbreviations, answers to frequently asked questions, and special highlighting for examples and for sections that explain important research, engineering, and deployment features. The book is suitable for researchers, practitioners, and graduate students who are interested in network security.
Programming skills are indispensable in today’s world, not just for computer science students, but also for anyone in any scientific or technical discipline. Introduction to Programming in Java, Second Edition, by Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne is an accessible, interdisciplinary treatment that emphasizes important and engaging applications, not toy problems. The authors supply the tools needed for students and professionals to learn that programming is a natural, satisfying, and creative experience, and to become conversant with one of the world’s most widely used languages.
This example-driven guide focuses on Java’s most useful features and brings programming to life for every student in the sciences, engineering, and computer science.
