For most modern-day data, graph data models are proving to be advantageous since they facilitate a diverse range of data analyses. This has spiked the interest and usage of graph databases, especially Neo4j. We study Neo4j and cypher along with various plugins that augment database capabilities in terms of data types or facilitate applications in Data Science and Machine Learning using plugins like Graph Data Science (GDS). A significant portion of the book is focused on discussing the structure and usage of graph algorithms. Readers will gain insights into well-known algorithms like shortest path, PageRank, or Label Propagation among others, and how one can apply these algorithms in real-world scenarios within a Neo4j graph. Once readers become acquainted with the various algorithms applicable to graph analysis, we transition to Data Science problems. Here, we explore how a graph's structure and algorithms can enhance predictive modeling, prediction of connections in the graph, etc. In conclusion, we demonstrate that beyond its prowess in data analysis, Neo4j can be tweaked in a production setup to handle large data sets and queries at scale, allowing more complex and sophisticated analyses to come to life.

Celebrity cooks such as Raymond Blanc and Giorgio Locatelli reveal how you can bring out a whole new spectrum of flavours at home from food that is refreshingly free of all the bad effects of mass market production. As increasing numbers of people buy ingredients directly from farmers' markets, food festivals, local farm shops and specialist retailers, it's clear that there is a growing desire to learn more about the provenance of our food - and to re-connect with traditional farming and enjoy the fruits of the land. But ultimately it's all about taste - fresh, bold flavours that explode in your mouth. Cut into a freshly grown tomato, for example, and enjoy the sweet ripeness that is miles away from mass-produced varieties. Roast these with peppers, perhaps, and put onto bruschetta for a quick snack; mix with goat's cheese and basil and pile onto puff pastry for a lunch-time tart; or pan-fry, drizzled with balsamic vinegar, with pork, fennel and red onion for dinner.

The book examines the performance and optimization of systems where queueing and congestion are important constructs. Both finite and infinite queueing systems are examined. Many examples and case studies are utilized to indicate the breadth and depth of the queueing systems and their range of applicability. Blocking of these processes is very important and the book shows how to deal with this problem in an effective way and not only compute the performance measures of throughput, cycle times, and WIP but also to optimize the resources within these systems.
