Are you planning a career in computing? Do you use binary or hexadecimal but want to understand it better? Software developers, network analysts, and computer security analysts are just some of the people who need to really understand binary.

The binary number system (also called base 2) is used by computers to store numbers and to perform arithmetic. A software developer that understands binary will write code that compensates for the limitations a computer has when doing arithmetic. A network analyst will use binary to divide and configure networks with subnet masks. A security...

The first part of the book on structuring workflow is useful for project managers, technical team leads, and CTOs. The second part provides hands-on exercises to help developers gain a better...

You might think more than enough design books exist in the programming world already. In fact, there are so many that it makes sense to ask why you would read yet another. Is there really a need for yet another design book? In fact, there is a greater need than ever before, and Practical API Design: Confessions of a Java Framework Architect fills that need

• Teaches you how to write an API that will stand the test of time
• Written by the designer of the NetBeans API at Sun Technologies
• Based on best practices, scalability, and API design patterns...

Docker containers offer simpler, faster, and more robust methods for developing, distributing, and running software than previously available. With this hands-on guide, you'll learn why containers are so important, what you'll gain by adopting Docker, and how to make it part of your development process.

Ideal for developers, operations engineers, and system administrators--especially those keen to embrace a DevOps approach--Using Docker will take you from Docker and container basics to running dozens of containers on a multi-host system with networking and...

Power and Performance: Software Analysis and Optimization is a guide to solving performance problems in modern Linux systems. Power-efficient chips are no help if the software those chips run on is inefficient. Starting with the necessary architectural background as a foundation, the book demonstrates the proper usage of performance analysis tools in order to pinpoint the cause of performance problems, and includes best practices for handling common performance issues those tools identify.

• Provides expert perspective from a key member of Intel's optimization team on...

Meta-Programming and Model-Driven Meta-Program Development: Principles, Processes and Techniques presents an overall analysis of meta-programming, focusing on insights of meta-programming techniques, heterogeneous meta-program development processes in the context of model-driven, feature-based and transformative approaches.

The fundamental concepts of meta-programming are still not thoroughly understood, in this well organized book divided into three parts the authors help to address this. Chapters include: Taxonomy of fundamental concepts of meta-programming; Concept of...
