Android High Performance Programming. Click here to enter text

Emil Atanasov, Enrique López Manas, Diego Grancini

Performant applications are one of the key drivers of success in the mobile world. Users may abandon an app if it runs slowly. Learning how to build applications that balance speed and performance with functionality and UX can be a challenge; however, it's now more important than ever to get that balance right.Android High Performance will start you thinking about how to wring the most from any hardware your app is installed on, so you can increase your reach and engagement. The book begins by providing an introduction to state–of-the-art Android techniques and the importance of performance in an Android application. Then, we will explain the Android SDK tools regularly used to debug and profile Android applications. We will also learn about some advanced topics such as building layouts, multithreading, networking, and security. Battery life is one of the biggest bottlenecks in applications; and this book will show typical examples of code that exhausts battery life, how to prevent this, and how to measure battery consumption from an application in every kind of situation to ensure your apps don’t drain more than they should.This book explains techniques for building optimized and efficient systems that do not drain the battery, cause memory leaks, or slow down with time.

As you build on your knowledge, you’ll understand the functionality of IBM Qiskit and the developer-focused resources so you can create your own quantum algorithms. You’ll learn how to monitor and optimize your quantum circuits. Lastly, you’ll look at the fundamental quantum algorithms and understand how they can be applied effectively. By the end of this quantum computing book, you'll know how to build quantum algorithms and will have gained a practical understanding of quantum computation that you can apply to your research or business.

Instant HTML5 Geolocation How-to. Learn how to create elegant, location-aware web applications using the JavaScript Geolocation API

Benjamin Otto Werdmulle

We don't just surf the Web from our desktops any more – we take it with us, everywhere we go. Modern devices contain sophisticated hardware and software to determine the user's location. Apps such as Foursquare and Google Maps use this to create new kinds of functionality. Now, you can do this too with the HTML5 Geolocation API.Instant HTML5 Geolocation How-to is a simple guide to adding location information to your web applications. The practical, easy-to-follow recipes are designed to help you learn the ins and outs of the API. You'll learn how to use it, how it works, and how to save and display geographic information on the web.Beginning with a solid grounding in how the Geolocation API works and when to use it, you will learn how to determine, store, display, and track the user's location via a series of clear recipes.You will learn the different ways location is determined on different devices, including desktops and laptops that don't have GPS units. You'll also learn how to selectively use these different behaviours, based on the speed, accuracy, and battery life requirements of your application. You'll also get some hints about using MySQL databases to store sets of location data.Instant HTML5 Geolocation How-to will teach you everything you need to know about retrieving the location information your application needs, across multiple devices and platforms.
