Sviluppatore Web da Principiante a Professionista Retribuito, Volume 1: Costruisci il tuo Portfolio imparando Html5, CSS e Javascript passo dopo passo grazie ai manuali (Sviluppatore Web da Principiante a Professionista Retribuito #1)
by Bolakale AremuSo che ci sono risorse online più che sufficienti per insegnare ai principianti assoluti tutto ciò di cui hanno bisogno per imparare lo sviluppo web da zero. Ma questo libro è diverso perché affronta alcuni problemi dello sviluppo web. La credibilità di uno sviluppatore web va ben oltre le sue credenziali. Si tratta infatti della forza del suo Portfolio. Le opportunità di lavoro spesso derivano da esempi di lavoro e competenze concrete, piuttosto che da una laurea. Pertanto, è necessario acquisire le competenze necessarie. Questo libro non solo vi aiuterà a imparare in maniera adeguata e a costruire un portfolio straordinario, ma vi fornirà anche un aiuto e un supporto continui. Con questo libro e il mio team di assistenza e supporto dedicato, 24 ore su 24, 7 giorni su 7, non avrete nulla da temere. Ho aiutato molti sviluppatori web ad aggiornare le loro competenze in materia di sviluppo, ad avviare carriere di successo e ad essere assunti per lavori da remoto. Ho notato che anche i principianti più ambiziosi possono incorrere in problemi, come l'incapacità di decidere da dove iniziare. A volte si perdono completamente per strada e hanno quindi bisogno di ulteriore aiuto. La verità è che tutti, prima o dopo, hanno bisogno di aiuto per imparare correttamente l'html5, il CSS o il Javascript nel loro percorso formativo. In questo libro ho raccolto un numero sufficiente di sfide di codifica e le loro soluzioni. Avrete a disposizione schede informative regolarmente aggiornate, esercizi di codifica, uno splendido portfolio di sviluppo web per mostrare i vostri esempi di lavoro, progetti pratici e grafici/screenshot utilizzati in questo libro. Potrete inoltre ricevere ulteriore assistenza utilizzando il link di supporto gratuito in fondo a questo libro. Vi aiuteremo a studiare a fondo. Infine, se acquisterete questo libro, vi aggiungerò alla mia comunità di sviluppatori web in modo che possiate continuare a imparare e a riceve

Symmetric Cryptography, Volume 1: Design and Security Proofs
by Christina Boura María Naya-PlasenciaSymmetric cryptology is one of the two main branches of cryptology. Its applications are essential and vital in the Information Age, due to the efficiency of its constructions. The scope of this book in two volumes is two-fold. First, it presents the most important ideas that have been used in the design of symmetric primitives, their inner components and their most relevant constructions. Second, it describes and provides insights on the most popular cryptanalysis and proof techniques for analyzing the security of the above algorithms. A selected number of future directions, such as post-quantum security or design of ciphers for modern needs and particular applications, are also discussed. We believe that the two volumes of this work will be of interest to researchers, to master’s and PhD students studying or working in the field of cryptography, as well as to all professionals working in the field of cybersecurity.
Synthetic Data: Revolutionizing the Industrial Metaverse
by Jimmy Nassif Joe Tekli Marc KamradtThe book concentrates on the impact of digitalization and digital transformation technologies on the Industry 4.0 and smart factories, how the factory of tomorrow can be designed, built, and run virtually as a digital twin likeness of its real-world counterpart, before the physical structure is actually erected.It highlights the main digitalization technologies that have stimulated the Industry 4.0, how these technologies work and integrate with each other, and how they are shaping the industry of the future.It examines how multimedia data and digital images in particular are being leveraged to create fully virtualized worlds in the form of digital twin factories and fully virtualized industrial assets. It uses BMW Group’s latest SORDI dataset (Synthetic Object Recognition Dataset for Industry), i.e., the largest industrial images dataset to-date and its applications at BMW Group and Idealworks, as one of the main explanatory scenarios throughout the book.It discusses the need of synthetic data to train advanced deep learning computer vision models, and how such datasets will help create the “robot gym” of the future: training robots on synthetic images to prepare them to function in the real world.

Systems Medicine: Physiological Circuits and the Dynamics of Disease (Chapman & Hall/CRC Computational Biology Series)
by Uri AlonWhy do we get certain diseases, whereas other diseases do not exist? In this book, Alon, one of the founders of systems biology, builds a foundation for systems medicine. Starting from basic laws, the book derives why physiological circuits are built the way they are. The circuits have fragilities that explain specific diseases and offer new strategies to treat them. By the end, the reader will be able to use simple and powerful mathematical models to describe physiological circuits. The book explores, in three parts, hormone circuits, immune circuits, and aging and age-related disease. It culminates in a periodic table of diseases. Alon writes in a style accessible to a broad range of readers - undergraduates, graduates, or researchers from computational or biological backgrounds. The level of math is friendly and the math can even be bypassed altogether. For instructors and readers who want to go deeper, the book includes dozens of exercises that have been rigorously tested in the classroom
