Sound design is a ubiquitous subject for electronic musicians working across a staggering array of contemporary musical styles and practices. There is an extensive literature covering the creation of Foley effects, and another body of literature addressing domain-specific applications of sound design technique, e.g., how to make bass sounds for Dubstep or how to produce drum sounds for Trap. There is also a computer music literature that focuses on the mathematics of digital signal processing as it pertains to implementing classic digital synthesis and processing techniques. Automated Sound Design addresses the topic from a different perspective, demonstrating the power of sound design when enhanced by automated structures implemented with computer programming. Through the techniques and projects developed in this book, the reader will learn how to create sound design scenarios that generate classes of sounds with controlled unpredictability and unlimited variety of output. This adventure will reveal new ways to work with additive synthesis, frequency modulation, analysis-transformation synthesis, drum machines, Black MIDI, and spatialization for binaural listening. jаvascript in Max is so wonderful that every serious Max user should know how to use it.

The ultimate guide to auditing, testing, fixing and improving your Laravel applications so you can build better apps faster and with more confidence. Aside from being a natural perfectionist and always wanting to produce the best possible end product, I soon understood short-cut solutions and poor quality code almost always came at a cost to everyone involved. I’m talking about apps being shipped with frustrating bugs, or annoying issues that seriously slowed down the progress of the whole team. I know I’m preaching to the converted here, but a clean codebase and overall well-engineered solution will always be better in the long run. It might take a bit more time upfront, but it’s well worth it.

The book contains the full transcript of Software Diagnostics Services training. Learn disassembly, execution history reconstruction and binary reversing techniques for better software diagnostics, troubleshooting and debugging on x64 Windows platforms. The course uses a unique and innovative pattern-oriented analysis approach to speed up the learning curve. The training consists of practical step-by-step hands-on exercises using WinDbg and memory dumps. Covered more than 25 ADDR patterns, and many concepts are illustrated with Memory Cell Diagrams. The prerequisites for this training are working knowledge of C and C++ programming languages. Operating system internals and assembly language concepts are explained when necessary. The primary audience for this training is software technical support and escalation engineers who analyze memory dumps from complex software environments and need to go deeper in their analysis of abnormal software structure and behavior.

Tidying up messy software is a must. And that means breaking up the code to make it more readable, and using guard clauses and helping functions to make it understandable. In this practical guide, author Kent Beck, creator of Extreme Programming and pioneer of software patterns, suggests when and where you might apply tidyings in your code. Instead of trying to master tidying all at once, this book lets you try out a few examples that make sense for your problem. If you have a big function containing many lines of code, you'll learn how to logically divide it into smaller chunks. Along the way, you'll learn the theory behind software design: coupling, cohesion, discounted cash flows, and optionality.

Comprehensive and thorough resource exploring different types of convolutional neural networks and complementary accelerators. Accelerators for Convolutional Neural Networks provides basic deep learning knowledge and instructive content to build up convolutional neural network (CNN) accelerators for the Internet of things (IoT) and edge computing practitioners, elucidating compressive coding for CNNs, presenting a two-step lossless input feature maps compression method, discussing arithmetic coding -based lossless weights compression method and the design of an associated decoding method, describing contemporary sparse CNNs that consider sparsity in both weights and activation maps, and discussing hardware/software co-design and co-scheduling techniques that can lead to better optimization and utilization of the available hardware resources for CNN acceleration. The first part of the book provides an overview of CNNs along with the composition and parameters of different contemporary CNN models.

Advance your knowledge of operations research and social good! This book’s purpose is to showcase Operations Research (OR) methodologies to applications targeted to make this world a better place. This book also provides skills and practical examples to model and solve OR problems with both SAS and Python. Each use case is a real-life application that has been implemented and proven successful. We solve use cases with both SAS and Python, driving students to learn both programming languages to solve OR problems and giving professors flexibility to choose which technology to focus on in their classes. This book does not cover operations research theory or optimization algorithms. Instead, it focuses on problem modeling and formulation. Recent technological developments allow data analytics practitioners to solve large problems better and faster with state-of-the-art Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools.
