Enterprises have made amazing advances by taking advantage of data about their business to provide predictions and understanding of their customers, markets, and products. But as the world of business becomes more interconnected and global, enterprise data is no long a monolith; it is just a part of a vast web of data. Managing data on a world-wide scale is a key capability for any business today.The Semantic Web treats data as a distributed resource on the scale of the World Wide Web, and incorporates features to address the challenges of massive data distribution as part of its basic design. The aim of the first two editions was to motivate the Semantic Web technology stack from end-to-end; to describe not only what the Semantic Web standards are and how they work, but also what their goals are and why they were designed as they are. It tells a coherent story from beginning to end of how the standards work to manage a world-wide distributed web of knowledge in a meaningful way.The third edition builds on this foundation to bring Semantic Web practice to enterprise. Fabien Gandon joins Dean Allemang and Jim Hendler, bringing with him years of experience in global linked data, to open up the story to a modern view of global linked data. While the overall story is the same, the examples have been brought up to date and applied in a modern setting, where enterprise and global data come together as a living, linked network of data. Also included with the third edition, all of the data sets and queries are available online for study and experimentation at data.world/swwo.

Learn the core components and features of the Microsoft Windows threat-mitigation system from one of the world's foremost Windows security experts - and Microsoft's top bug hunter - James Forshaw. In this hands-on guidebook, Forshaw distils his more than 20 years of knowledge and practical experience working with Windows security, describing the system in greater depth than any ever before. In-depth technical discussions are rounded out with real-world examples that not only demonstrate how to use PowerShell in security work, but let you explore Windows security features for yourself as you follow along in the text. Early chapters cover the basics, including best practices for setting up a PowerShell environment, understanding the Windows kernel interface, and working within the security reference monitor. As you progress to more advanced topics, Forshaw walks you through highly relevant case studies, as well as the implementation of complex processes like access checking and network authentication. In addition, there are example scripts using the PowerShell scripting language throughout, which can be used to test the behaviour of Windows systems and, in turn, enable you to explore their security without needing a compiler or other development tools. Essential for anyone who works with Windows security, this book dives deeper into core components of the system than even Microsoft's own documentation.

The theory of elliptic curves involves a pleasing blend of algebra, geometry, analysis, and number theory. This volume stresses this interplay as it develops the basic theory, thereby providing an opportunity for advanced undergraduates to appreciate the unity of modern mathematics. At the same time, every effort has been made to use only methods and results commonly included in the undergraduate curriculum. This accessibility, the informal writing style, and a wealth of exercises make Rational Points on Elliptic Curves an ideal introduction for students at all levels who are interested in learning about Diophantine equations and arithmetic geometry.Most concretely, an elliptic curve is the set of zeroes of a cubic polynomial in two variables. If the polynomial has rational coefficients, then one can ask for a description of those zeroes whose coordinates are either integers or rational numbers. It is this number theoretic question that is the main subject of Rational Points on Elliptic Curves. Topics covered include the geometry and group structure of elliptic curves, the Nagell–Lutz theorem describing points of finite order, the Mordell–Weil theorem on the finite generation of the group of rational points, the Thue–Siegel theorem on the finiteness of the set of integer points, theorems on counting points with coordinates in finite fields, Lenstra's elliptic curve factorization algorithm, and a discussion of complex multiplication and the Galois representations associated to torsion points. Additional topics new to the second edition include an introduction to elliptic curve cryptography and a brief discussion of the stunning proof of Fermat's Last Theorem by Wiles et al. via the use of elliptic curves.

Multiobjective optimization deals with solving problems having not only one, but multiple, often conflicting, criteria. Such problems can arise in practically every field of science, engineering and business, and the need for efficient and reliable solution methods is increasing. The task is challenging due to the fact that, instead of a single optimal solution, multiobjective optimization results in a number of solutions with different trade-offs among criteria, also known as Pareto optimal or efficient solutions. Hence, a decision maker is needed to provide additional preference information and to identify the most satisfactory solution. Depending on the paradigm used, such information may be introduced before, during, or after the optimization process. Clearly, research and application in multiobjective optimization involve expertise in optimization as well as in decision support.This state-of-the-art survey originates from the International Seminar on Practical Approaches to Multiobjective Optimization, held in Dagstuhl Castle, Germany, in December 2006, which brought together leading experts from various contemporary multiobjective optimization fields, including evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO), multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) and multiple criteria decision aiding (MCDA).This book gives a unique and detailed account of the current status of research and applications in the field of multiobjective optimization. It contains 16 chapters grouped in the following 5 thematic sections: Basics on Multiobjective Optimization; Recent Interactive and Preference-Based Approaches; Visualization of Solutions; Modelling, Implementation and Applications; and Quality Assessment, Learning, and Future Challenges.

Det märkliga med IT-projekt är inte att så många misslyckas. Det är att de misslyckas på samma sätt. Verksamheten vet vad de behöver men kan inte förklara det i tekniska termer. Utvecklarna gör sina egna tolkningar, var och en i sin silo, utan att se helheten. Missförstånd upptäcks för sent, om de alls upptäcks. Resultatet blir kravspecifikationer med blinda fläckar. Områden ingen tänkte på. Motsägelser ingen såg. Och de icke-funktionella kraven, de som avgör om systemet faktiskt fungerar i verkligheten, hamnar längst ner i högen. Om de alls kommer med. Efter 30 år i branschen som testspecialist,kravanalytiker, utbildare och coach har jag tröttnat på att se samma misstag upprepas. Så jag har skrivit en bok. Boken är skriven så alla kan förstå, oavsett teknisk bakgrund. Men den är lika mycket riktad till dig som besitter djup expertis inom något av områdena, och vill se hur din pusselbit passar in i helheten. Kvalitetstårtan gör de icke-funktionella kraven begripliga. Sex lager som tillsammans täcker det som annars faller mellan stolarna. Samt praktiska checklistor som säkerställer att inget viktigt glöms bort.

Denna bok är tänkt att passa som kurslitteratur i grundläggande programmeringskurser, till exempel i en första kurs på universitet eller högskolan. På gymnasiet kan den användas i kurserna Programmering 1 och Programmering 2 samt i de matematikkurser som innehåller programmering som ett moment.Boken passar också för var och en som på egen hand vill lära sig grunderna i programmering, eller för den som redan kan programmera i något annat språk och vill lära sig Java.Java - steg för steg- kräver inga förkunskaper- är lättläst och pedagogisk- visar hur verktyget JShell kan användas för att underlätta inlärningen- innehåller en mängd exempel och övningar- beskriver alla grundläggande konstruktioner i Java- behandlar objektorienterad programmering med klasser, objekt och arv- visar hur texter kan skrivas till och läsas från filer- beskriver hur listor och avbildningstabeller kan användas och hur de kan sparas i JSON-format- behandlar algoritmer- ger en stabil grund för att gå vidare med mer avancerad programmering, till exempel webbprogrammering eller konstruktion av appar.På bokens webbsida www.studentlitteratur.se/37165 finns kompletterande material, t.ex. lösningar till alla övningsexempel.

The book covers topics such as generative models (the technology behind deep fakes), self-supervised learning, attention mechanisms (the tech behind ChatGPT), graph neural networks (the tech behind AlphaFold), and deep reinforcement learning (the tech behind AlphaGo). This book bridges the gap between theory and practice, helping readers gain the confidence to apply deep learning in their work.

Messy code is a nuisance. "Tidying" code, to make it more readable, requires breaking it up into manageable sections. In this practical guide, author Kent Beck, creator of Extreme Programming and pioneer of software patterns, suggests when and where you might apply tidyings to improve your code while keeping the overall structure of the system in mind.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.This book helps you:Understand the basic theory of how software design works and the forces that act on itExplore the difference between changes to a system's behavior and changes to its structureImprove your programming experience by sometimes tidying first and sometimes tidying afterLearn how to make large changes in small, safe stepsApproach design as a human activity with diverging incentives
