Leading experts present the latest technology and applications in adaptive optics for vision science

Featuring contributions from the foremost researchers in the field, Adaptive Optics for Vision Science is the first book devoted entirely to providing the fundamentals of adaptive optics along with its practical applications in vision science. The material for this book stems from collaborations fostered by the Center for Adaptive Optics, a consortium of more than thirty universities, government laboratories, and corporations.

Although the book is written primarily for researchers in vision science and ophthalmology, the field of adaptive optics has strong roots in astronomy. Researchers in both fields share this technology and, for this reason, the book includes chapters by both astronomers and vision scientists.

Following the introduction, chapters are divided into the following sections:

Readers will discover the remarkable proliferation of new applications of wavefront-related technologies developed for the human eye. For example, the book explores how wavefront sensors offer the promise of a new generation of vision correction methods that can deal with higher order aberrations beyond defocus and astigmatism, and how adaptive optics can produce images of the living retina with unprecedented resolution.

An appendix includes the Optical Society of America''s Standards for Reporting Optical Aberrations. A glossary of terms and a symbol table are also included.

Adaptive Optics for Vision Science arms engineers, scientists, clinicians, and students with the basic concepts, engineering tools, and techniques needed to master adaptive optics applications in vision science and ophthalmology. Moreover, readers will discover the latest thinking and findings from the leading innovators in the field.

Optimized for Kubernetes, Quarkus is designed to help you create Java applications that are cloud first, container native, and serverless capable. With this cookbook, authors Alex Soto Bueno and Jason Porter from Red Hat provide detailed solutions for installing, interacting with, and using Quarkus in the development and production of microservices.

The recipes in this book show midlevel to senior developers familiar with Java enterprise application development how to get started with Quarkus quickly. You’ll become familiar with how Quarkus works within the wider Java ecosystem and discover ways to adapt this framework to your particular needs.

With traditional software unit tests, there’s never a guarantee that an application will actually function correctly in the production environment. When you add microservices, testing becomes even more tricky.

Testing Java Microservices teaches readers how to write tests like unit, component, integration, container, contract, chaos, and more. Along the way, it also covers technologies like the Arquillian ecosystem, Wiremock, Mockito, AssertJ, Pact or Gatling. Finally, the book demonstrates how everything fits together into the Continuous Delivery pipeline.

Key Features:

·    Practical hands-on guide

·    Writing Persistence tests

·    Teaches test strategies

·    Shows how everything fits together in the Continuous Delivery Pipeline

Readers should be comfortable programming in Java. Experience with testing tools like jUnit is helpful but not required. Some experience in Java EE, Spring and Docker is also helpful.

About the Technology:

A microservice may consist of several, several hundred, or even several thousand of lines of code. Microservices enable programmers to isolate and scale smaller pieces of an application, rather than the entire application.
