Are you a software developer, systems designer, or computer architecture student looking for a methodical introduction to digital device architectures but overwhelmed by their complexity? This book will help you to learn how modern computer systems work, from the lowest level of transistor switching to the macro view of collaborating multiprocessor servers. You'll gain unique insights into the internal behavior of processors that execute the code developed in high-level languages and enable you to design more efficient and scalable software systems.The book will teach you the fundamentals of computer systems including transistors, logic gates, sequential logic, and instruction operations. You will learn details of modern processor architectures and instruction sets including x86, x64, ARM, and RISC-V. You will see how to implement a RISC-V processor in a low-cost FPGA board and how to write a quantum computing program and run it on an actual quantum computer. By the end of this book, you will have a thorough understanding of modern processor and computer architectures and the future directions these architectures are likely to take.

Modern Data Architectures with Python will teach you how to seamlessly incorporate your machine learning and data science work streams into your open data platforms. You’ll learn how to take your data and create open lakehouses that work with any technology using tried-and-true techniques, including the medallion architecture and Delta Lake.Starting with the fundamentals, this book will help you build pipelines on Databricks, an open data platform, using SQL and Python. You’ll gain an understanding of notebooks and applications written in Python using standard software engineering tools such as git, pre-commit, Jenkins, and Github. Next, you’ll delve into streaming and batch-based data processing using Apache Spark and Confluent Kafka. As you advance, you’ll learn how to deploy your resources using infrastructure as code and how to automate your workflows and code development. Since any data platform's ability to handle and work with AI and ML is a vital component, you’ll also explore the basics of ML and how to work with modern MLOps tooling. Finally, you’ll get hands-on experience with Apache Spark, one of the key data technologies in today’s market.By the end of this book, you’ll have amassed a wealth of practical and theoretical knowledge to build, manage, orchestrate, and architect your data ecosystems.

Containers have entirely changed how developers and end-users see applications as a whole. With this book, you'll learn all about containers, their architecture and benefits, and how to implement them within your development lifecycle.You'll discover how you can transition from the traditional world of virtual machines and adopt modern ways of using DevOps to ship a package of software continuously. Starting with a quick refresher on the core concepts of containers, you'll move on to study the architectural concepts to implement modern ways of application development. You'll cover topics around Docker, Kubernetes, Ansible, Terraform, Packer, and other similar tools that will help you to build a base. As you advance, the book covers the core elements of cloud integration (AWS ECS, GKE, and other CaaS services), continuous integration, and continuous delivery (GitHub actions, Jenkins, and Spinnaker) to help you understand the essence of container management and delivery. The later sections of the book will take you through container pipeline security and GitOps (Flux CD and Terraform).By the end of this DevOps book, you'll have learned best practices for automating your development lifecycle and making the most of containers, infrastructure automation, and CaaS, and be ready to develop applications using modern tools and techniques.

Scala is both a functional programming and object-oriented programming language designed to express common programming patterns in a concise, readable, and type-safe way. Complete with step-by-step instructions, Modern Scala Projects will guide you in exploring Scala capabilities and learning best practices. Along the way, you'll build applications for professional contexts while understanding the core tasks and components.You’ll begin with a project for predicting the class of a flower by implementing a simple machine learning model. Next, you'll create a cancer diagnosis classification pipeline, followed by tackling projects delving into stock price prediction, spam filtering, fraud detection, and a recommendation engine. The focus will be on application of ML techniques that classify data and make predictions, with an emphasis on automating data workflows with the Spark ML pipeline API. The book also showcases the best of Scala’s functional libraries and other constructs to help you roll out your own scalable data processing frameworks.By the end of this Scala book, you’ll have a firm foundation in Scala programming and have built some interesting real-world projects to add to your portfolio.

Sekretne życie Twojego mózgu -- czyli mroczna podróż w głąb galaretowatej masy komórek Co Twój mózg próbuje przed Tobą ukryć? Dlaczego zniekształca postrzeganą rzeczywistość? Jak możesz nauczyć się w pełni wykorzystywać jego potencjał? W jaki sposób powinieneś dbać o mózg, by zachować bystrość umysłu? Anatomia mózgu Jeśli jesteś szczęśliwym posiadaczem mózgu, a do tego jest on jednym z Twoich ulubionych organów, przygotowaliśmy dla Ciebie książkę inną niż wszystkie. Skoro telewizor, mikrofalówka i lodówka, a ostatnio nawet niemowlęta dostarczane są ze szczegółową instrukcją obsługi, dlaczego nie posiada jej ta fascynująca masa komórek, bez której byłbyś... zwykłą roślinką? A jeśli używasz swojego mózgu niezgodnie z instrukcją? Albo nie wykorzystujesz jego całego potencjału? Byłaby to naprawdę niepowetowana strata. Ta książka jest połączeniem przewodnika naukowego i bezcennego poradnika. Opiera się na najnowszych osiągnięciach neurobiologii, psychologii oraz wiedzy na temat żywienia. Nauczy Cię, jak się zregenerować podczas drzemki, ostrzeże, by nie ufać pamięci, oraz wytłumaczy, dlaczego nigdy nie będziesz szczęśliwszy niż jesteś, niezależnie od tego, jak dobrze Ci się powodzi. Dowiesz się, co powoduje, że myślisz, czujesz i działasz w określony sposób, a także skąd biorą się stany lęków i euforii. Z jej pomocą odkryjesz też, czym dla Twojego mózgu jest miłość. Poznaj sekretne mechanizmy, które żądzą Twoimi zachciankami. Odkryj błędy mózgu w postrzeganiu świata i zawrotne złudzenia optyczne. Naucz się kilku sztuczek, którymi można zaskoczyć gości na imprezie. Stosuj skuteczne metody walki z pogarszającą się pamięcią i zachowaj bystrość umysłu.
