This compendium gives an overview of computer performance modelling techniques and an in-depth explanation of their principles and practical applications. The book emphasizes selected approximation methods for complex systems, including recent advances in multi-server models. This text incorporates many years of experience doing research, teaching, and practicing computer performance modeling. This book can be used as a textbook for a graduate-level course in computer performance modeling, as well as a reference for professionals working in this field. Computer performance modeling provides tools to predict the performance of computer systems before they are built, as well as the effect of system modifications before they are released to the users. Ideally, outside emergency situations, system designs and modifications whose performance has not been assessed and is thus unknown, should not find their way into the marketplace. Computer performance modeling includes all aspects of computer systems, from their hardware and software components to their overall architecture. When dealing with existing systems, its goals include the determination of critical performance factors and the impact of projected changes.

Java Generics and Collections has been the go-to guide to generics for more than a decade. This second edition covers Java 21, providing a clear guide to generics from their most common uses to the strangest corner cases, giving you everything you need to know to use and write generic APIs effectively. It covers the collections library thoroughly, so you'll always know how and when to use each collection for any given task. And it explains stream processing, so you'll know which model to use and how they interoperate to get the best out of the platform library. This book is intended for everyone who knows something about Java, and would like to find out more. It’s not a Java tutorial, so we assume knowledge of basic Java concepts like classes, static and instance methods, and so on. We use the syntax of Java 21, but most syntax features associated specifically with generics are explained in the text.

This book addresses growing demand in the visual humanities for foundational knowledge in data analysis, image processing, and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Intended for readers without prior technical knowledge, its eighteen chapters introduce key concepts in Data Science through examples from art history, visual computing, and cloud technologies. For advanced readers, it explores how digital methods enhance our understanding of our cultural past. Focusing on image-based humanities research, the book demonstrates practical applications using open source software such as R, RStudio, and ImageMagick, along with open data sets from institutions like the MoMA, the Met, and the Rijksmuseum. To effectively analyze data, the choice of means is crucial. In this book, we are using the programming language R as a strategic choice, since it offers distinct advantages over alternative means. R, being an open-source language, accommodates a wide spectrum of data analysis tasks.

This second edition of the book that targets those in computer algebra and Artificial Intelligence introduces Black Hole algorithm that is essential for optimizing hyperparameters, an important task in Machine Learning where mostly, stochastic global methods are used as well as ChatGPT, a novel and in the last few years, very popular Generative AI technology. In addition, fisher discriminant, a linear discriminant that can provide an optimal separation of objects, and the conversion of time series into images thereby making it possible to employ convolution neural network to classify time series effectively are presented. Computer vision, a multidisciplinary field that is broadly a subfield of artificial intelligence and Machine Learning has as one of its goals the extraction of useful information from images. A basic problem in computer vision, therefore, is to try to understand, i.e., “see” the structure of the real world from a given set of images through use of specialized methods and general learning algorithms. In this book, we employ Python and Mathematica as well as their blending, since Python code can be run from Mathematica directly.

Safety assurance of software systems has never been as imminent a problem as it is today. Practitioners and researchers who work on the problem face a challenge unique to modern software systems: uncertainties. For one, the cyber-physical nature of modern software systems as exemplified by automated driving systems mandates environmental uncertainties to be addressed and the resulting hazards to be mitigated. Besides, the abundance of statistical Machine Learning components massive numerical computing units for statistical reasoning such as deep neural networks make systems hard to explain, understand, analyze or verify. Testing is an “activity in which a system or component is executed under specified conditions, the results are observed or recorded, and an evaluation is made of some aspect of the system or component”. Testing has been one of the key activities for quality assurance in software-intensive systems. The recent advance of Machine Learning (ML) techniques, especially Deep Learning, has led to active investigation towards their industrial applications. Beforehand, ML techniques were target of laboratory research and the primary concern was on the prediction performance.
