The second edition of this book has been fully updated to show how the DevOps way of working has continued to adapt to changing technologies. The ITIL processes which were an integral part of the DevOps world have been merged with the DevOps framework, reflecting the current emphasis on product models rather than viewing project and support models separately. This book starts with the basics of digital transformation before exploring how this works in practice: that is, people, processes and technology, and org structures. It delves into value streams that are the basis for ITIL and DevOps, highlighting the differences between the methods of the past and new methodologies needed to ensure products to meet contemporary expectations. This updated edition includes new chapters that discuss digital transformation for business success, introduce the battle tank framework, leading people in the digital world, managing work in a remote working model, and the product-led transformation model. These new chapters provide the guidance necessary to move beyond DevOps into a holistic digital transformation exercise.

Help learners develop essential computing skills with an approach that uses real-life examples, reinforces key vocabulary and provides opportunities to learn, practise and apply throughout. The best algorithms are efficient. This means they carry out a task using the least number of steps. Efficient algorithms are concise. Efficient algorithms make efficient programs. We can make a program concise by combining repeated code and removing code that is not needed.

Secure Software Systems presents an approach to secure software systems design and development that tightly integrates security and systems design and development (or software engineering) together. It addresses the software development process from the perspective of a security practitioner. The text focuses on the processes, concepts, and concerns of ensuring that secure practices are followed throughout the secure software systems development life cycle, including the practice of following the life cycle rather than just doing ad hoc development. The goal of this textbook is to present an approach to secure software systems design and development that tightly integrates security and systems design and development (or software engineering) together. The desire to create the book came from searching for an appropriate textbook for a secure software development course.

This book aims to teach the skills necessary to create iOS apps using the iOS 16 SDK, UIKit, Xcode 14, and the Swift programming language. Beginning with the basics, this book outlines the steps necessary to set up an iOS development environment. Next, an introduction to the architecture of iOS 16 and programming in Swift 5.7 is provided, followed by an in-depth look at the design of iOS apps and user interfaces. More advanced topics such as file handling, database management, graphics drawing, and animation are also covered, as are touch screen handling, gesture recognition, multitasking, location management, local notifications, camera access, and video playback support. Other features include Auto Layout, local map search, user interface animation using UIKit dynamics, Siri integration, iMessage app development, and biometric authentication. Additional features of iOS development using Xcode are also covered, including Swift playgrounds, universal user interface design using size classes, app extensions, Interface Builder Live Views, embedded frameworks, collection and stack layouts, CloudKit data storage, and the document browser.

Computer vision-based crack-like object detection has many useful applications, such as inspecting/monitoring pavement surface, underground pipeline, bridge cracks, railway tracks etc. However, in most contexts, cracks appear as thin, irregular long-narrow objects, and often are buried in complex, textured background with high diversity which make the crack detection very challenging. During the past a few years, Deep Learning technique has achieved great success and has been utilized for solving a variety of object detection problems. This book discusses crack-like object detection problem comprehensively. It starts by discussing traditional image processing approaches for solving this problem, and then introduces deep learning-based methods. It provides a detailed review of object detection problems and focuses on the most challenging problem, crack-like object detection, to dig deep into the Deep Learning method. It includes examples of real-world problems, which are easy to understand and could be a good tutorial for introducing Computer Vision and Machine Learning.

Широта темы оправдывает разделение этой работы на две книги. Часть I охватывает общие аспекты, применимые к тестированию систем, среди которых влияние жизненного цикла разработки, стратегия и методология тестирования, дополнительная ценность референтного качества, тестовая документация и отчетность. Мы определили влияние различных уровней тестирования и методов тестирования, как статических, так и динамических. Во второй книге мы сосредоточимся на управлении проектами, определив человеческое взаимодействие как первостепенный элемент, который необходимо учитывать, и продолжим рассмотрение практических аспектов, таких как процессы тестирования и их итеративное и непрерывное совершенствование. Мы также рассмотрим дополнительные, но необходимые процессы, такие как управление требованиями, управление дефектами и управление конфигурацией. Эти две книги составляют единую целостную и законченную работу, основанную на более чем 40-летнем опыте автора. Основным аспектом, выдвигаемым на первый план, является разница между традиционным видением тестирования программного обеспечения - сфокусированным на одной системе и одной версии - и необходимым видением, когда несколько систем и несколько версий программного обеспечения должны быть взаимосвязаны для предоставления услуги, которая должна быть тщательно протестирована.

Deep Learning Approach for Natural Language Processing, Speech, and Computer Vision provides an overview of general deep learning methodology and its applications of Natural Language Processing (NLP), speech and Computer Vision tasks. It simplifies and presents the concepts of Deep Learning in a comprehensive manner, with suitable, full-fledged examples of Deep Learning models, with an aim to bridge the gap between the theory and the applications using case studies with code, experiments, and supporting analysis. Voice-based assistants, AI-based chatbots, and advanced driver assistance systems are examples of applications that are becoming more common in daily life. In particular, the profound success of Deep Learning in a wide variety of domains has served as a benchmark for the many downstream applications in Artificial Intelligence (AI). Application areas of AI include Natural Language Processing (NLP), speech, and Computer Vision. The cutting-edge Deep Learning models have predominantly changed the perspectives of varied fields in AI, including speech, vision, and NLP.
