REST (REpresentational State Transfer) is a simple yet powerful software architecture style to create scalable web services and allow them to be simple, lightweight, and fast. The REST API uses HTTP and JSON, so that it can be used with many programming languages such as Ruby, Java, Python, and Scala. Its use in Java seems to be the most popular though, because of the API's reusability.This book is a guide to developing RESTful web services in Java using the popular RESTful framework APIs available today. You will begin with gaining an in-depth knowledge of the RESTful software architectural style and its relevance in modern applications. Further, you will understand the APIs to parse, generate, transform, and query JSON effectively. Then, you will see how to build a simple RESTful service using the popular JAX-RS 2.0 API along with some real-world examples. This book will introduce you to the Jersey framework API, which is used to simplify your web services.You will also see how to secure your services with various authentication mechanisms. You will get to grips with various solutions to describe, produce, consume, and visualize RESTful web services. Finally, you will see how to design your web services to equip them for the future technological advances, be it Cloud or mobile computing.By the end of this book, you will be able to efficiently build robust, scalable, and secure RESTful web services, making use of the JAX-RS and Jersey framework extensions.

When building RESTful services, it is really important to choose the right framework. Node.js, with its asynchronous, event-driven architecture, is exactly the right choice for building RESTful APIs.This third edition of RESTful Web API Design with Node.js 10 will teach you to create scalable and rich RESTful applications based on the Node.js platform. You will be introduced to the latest NPM package handler and understand how to use it to customize your RESTful development process. You will begin by understanding the key principle that makes an HTTP application a RESTful-enabled application. After writing a simple HTTP request handler, you will create and test Node.js modules using automated tests and mock objects; explore using the NoSQL database, MongoDB, to store data; and get to grips with using self-descriptive URLs. You’ll learn to set accurate HTTP status codes along with understanding how to keep your applications backward-compatible. Also, while implementing a full-fledged RESTful service, you will use Swagger to document the API and implement automation tests for a REST-enabled endpoint with Mocha. Lastly, you will explore some authentication techniques to secure your application.

RISC-V is reshaping processor innovation with its open and extensible instruction set architecture. But how are high-performance RISC-V digital signal processors (DSPs) designed in practice? This book explores that question through SpringCore, a RISC-V DSP architecture developed for real-time embedded control systems.Using SpringCore as a case study, the book introduces the architecture of a modern DSP processor and explains key digital design techniques used in its implementation. You will explore DSP architecture concepts, design custom ISA extensions for fixed-point and floating-point acceleration, and examine an 8-stage pipelined processor with hazard handling, zero-overhead loops, a Harvard memory architecture, protection mechanisms, and interrupt handling. The book also covers the surrounding software ecosystem, including an LLVM-based toolchain, debugging with OpenOCD and JTAG, development with an Eclipse-based IDE, and simulation support using tools such as gem5. Finally, it demonstrates how the SpringCore architecture is implemented in the FDM320RV335 DSP chip, which runs at 150 MHz and integrates peripherals such as an ADC and PWM for real-time industrial control.By the end, you will understand key DSP hardware architecture and custom ISA design principles through the practical example of SpringCore.
