Most organizations face challenges in defining and achieving evolved enterprise architecture practices, which can be a very lengthy process even if implemented correctly. Developers, for example, can build better solutions only if they receive the necessary design information from architects, and decision-makers can make appropriate changes within the organization only if they know the implications of doing so.The book starts by addressing the problems faced by enterprise architecture practitioners and provides solutions based on an agile approach to enterprise architecture, using ArchiMate® 3.1 as an industry standard and Sparx EA as the modeling tool. You'll learn with the help of a fictional organization that has three business units, each expecting something different from you as the enterprise architect. You'll build the practice, satisfy the different requirements of each business unit, and share the knowledge with others so they can follow your steps. Toward the end, you'll learn how to put the diagrams and the content that you have developed into documents, presentations, and web pages that can be published and shared with any stakeholder.By the end of this book, you'll be able to build a functional enterprise architecture practice that supports every part of your organization. You'll also have developed the necessary skills to populate your enterprise architecture repository with references and artifacts.

Modern programming languages such as Python, JavaScript, and Java have become increasingly accepted for application-level programming, but for systems programming, C and C++ are predominantly used due to the need for low-level control of system resources. Rust promises the best of both worlds: the type safety of Java, and the speed and expressiveness of C++, while also including memory safety without a garbage collector. This book is a comprehensive introduction if you’re new to Rust and systems programming and are looking to build reliable and efficient systems software without C or C++.The book takes a unique approach by starting each topic with Linux kernel concepts and APIs relevant to that topic. You’ll also explore how system resources can be controlled from Rust. As you progress, you’ll delve into advanced topics. You’ll cover network programming, focusing on aspects such as working with low-level network primitives and protocols in Rust, before going on to learn how to use and compile Rust with WebAssembly. Later chapters will take you through practical code examples and projects to help you build on your knowledge.By the end of this Rust programming book, you will be equipped with practical skills to write systems software tools, libraries, and utilities in Rust.

Time Series Analysis allows us to analyze data which is generated over a period of time and has sequential interdependencies between the observations. This book describes special mathematical tricks and techniques which are geared towards exploring the internal structures of time series data and generating powerful descriptive and predictive insights. Also, the book is full of real-life examples of time series and their analyses using cutting-edge solutions developed in Python. The book starts with descriptive analysis to create insightful visualizations of internal structures such as trend, seasonality, and autocorrelation. Next, the statistical methods of dealing with autocorrelation and non-stationary time series are described. This is followed by exponential smoothing to produce meaningful insights from noisy time series data. At this point, we shift focus towards predictive analysis and introduce autoregressive models such as ARMA and ARIMA for time series forecasting. Later, powerful deep learning methods are presented, to develop accurate forecasting models for complex time series, and under the availability of little domain knowledge. All the topics are illustrated with real-life problem scenarios and their solutions by best-practice implementations in Python.The book concludes with the Appendix, with a brief discussion of programming and solving data science problems using Python.

David Thomas, Andrew Hunt
Wydanie jubileuszowe z okazji 20. rocznicy pierwszej edycji Programiści dysponują coraz lepszym, szybszym i wszechstronniejszym sprzętem. Pojawiają się nowe języki programowania i nowe paradygmaty tworzenia architektury oprogramowania. Są jednak rzeczy, które w świecie programowania pozostają stałe i niezmienne. Wciąż proces stawania się programistą wymaga od adeptów tego rzemiosła sporego wysiłku. Akt kodowania to za mało. Trzeba zmienić sposób myślenia, nawyki, zachowania i oczekiwania. Konieczne jest świadome dążenie do stosowania dobrych praktyk. Jeśli pilnuje się jakości swojej pracy i nieustannie pamięta, co i po co się robi, można w końcu stać się pragmatycznym programistą. W drugim wydaniu tego kultowego przewodnika wskazówki techniczne harmonijnie łączą się z aspektami filozofii pragmatycznego programisty. Książka została zaktualizowana i gruntownie przejrzana, aby teraz, dwadzieścia lat po pierwszym wydaniu, ponownie pokazać, co to znaczy być nowoczesnym, pragmatycznym programistą. Poruszono tu tematy osobistej odpowiedzialności i rozwoju zawodowego, komunikacji i poznawania prawdziwych wymagań, nowoczesnych technik architektonicznych oraz coraz ważniejszych kwestii zachowania bezpieczeństwa i prywatności. Książka składa się z krótkich rozdziałów, które tworzą szeroki kontekst, dzięki czemu zyskasz wiedzę o najlepszych podejściach, unikniesz głównych pułapek, a co najważniejsze — rozwiniesz nawyki i postawy, które staną się fundamentem Twojego sukcesu zawodowego.
