    Abstract: Clayton Christensen's Theory of Disruptive Innovation presciently explained that fast-moving disrupters entering the market with cheap, low-quality goods could undermine companies wed to prevailing beliefs about competitive advantage. In the last decade, however, disrupters have changed dramatically. They now enter the market with products and services that are every bit as good as those offered by legacy companies - and make it harder than ever for traditional businesses to compete.

    Abstract: When faced with deep uncertainty, organizations often develop a habit of controlling for internal, known variables and fail to track external factors as potential disrupters. This practice lures decision-makers into a false sense of security, and it forces a narrow framing of the future. As a result, even the most successful businesses become vulnerable to disruptive forces that appear to come out of nowhere.

    Abstract: Although some observers have compared the rivalry between the United States and China over AI to the Cold War, Oxford researcher Jeffrey Ding says the analogy is flawed. AI is a general-purpose technology that can be applied across many different domains - including natural language processing, computer vision, and predictive analytics - and claiming that China has an edge ignores some important structural advantages for the U.S.

    Abstract: A recipe-based guide to refining your C++ programming skills with the help of coding best practices, advanced programming concepts, and the latest features of C++17 and C++20 Key Features Learn how to develop and design your own libraries Find solutions to your app development problems and implement them in a highly reusable manner, following library development best practices Explore advanced C++ features such as containers, coroutines, and modules Book Description If you think you've mastered C++ and know everything it takes to write robust applications, you'll be in for a surprise. With this book, you'll gain comprehensive insights into C++, covering exclusive tips and interesting techniques to enhance your app development process. You'll kick off with the basic principles of library design and development, which will help you understand how to write reusable and maintainable code. You'll then discover the importance of exception safety, and how you can avoid unexpected errors or bugs in your code. The book will take you through the modern elements of C++, such as move semantics, type deductions, and coroutines. As you advance, you'll delve into template programming - the standard tool for most library developers looking to achieve high code reusability. You'll explore the STL and learn how to avoid common pitfalls while implementing templates. Later, you'll learn about the problems of multithreaded programming such as data races, deadlocks, and thread starvation. You'll also learn high-performance programming by using benchmarking tools and libraries. Finally, you'll discover advanced techniques for debugging and testing to ensure code reliability. By the end of this book, you'll have become an expert at C++ programming and will have gained the skills to solve complex development problems with ease. What you will learn Solve common C++ development problems by implementing solutions in a more generic and reusable way Achieve different levels of exception safety guarantees by introducing precise declarations Write library-quality code that meets professional standards Practice writing reliable, performant code that exposes consistent behavior in programs Understand why you need to implement design patterns and how it's done Work with complex examples to understand various aspects of good library design Who this book is for This book is for intermediate and expert-level C++ developers who are looking to explore the lesser known functionalitie...

    Abstract: A compelling and insightful look at the future of Spatial Computing, and how this cutting-edge technology is changing the way we do business across seven primary industries, and what it means for humanity as a whole. Key Features Discover how Spatial Computing is changing the face of technology Get a roadmap for the disruptions caused by Spatial Computing and how it will affect seven major industries Gain insights about the past, present, and future of technology from the world's leading experts and innovators Book Description What is Spatial Computing and why is everyone from Tesla, Apple, and Facebook investing heavily in it? In The Infinite Retina, authors Irena Cronin and Robert Scoble attempt to answer that question by helping you understand where Spatial Computing-an augmented reality where humans and machines can interact in a physical space-came from, where it's going, and why it's so fundamentally different from the computers or mobile phones that came before. They present seven visions of the future and the industry verticals in which Spatial Computing has the most influence-Transportation; Technology, Media, and Telecommunications; Manufacturing; Retail; Healthcare; Finance; and Education. The book also shares insights about the past, present, and future from leading experts an other industry veterans and innovators, including Sebastian Thrun, Ken Bretschneider, and Hugo Swart. They dive into what they think will happen in Spatial Computing in the near and medium term, and also explore what it could mean for humanity in the long term. The Infinite Retina then leaves it up to you to decide whether Spatial Computing is truly where the future of technology is heading or whether it's just an exciting, but passing, phase. What you will learn Look back at historical paradigms that changed the face of technology Consider how Spatial Computing could be the new technology that changes our lives See how Virtual and Augmented Reality will change the way we do healthcare Learn how Spatial Computing technology will lead to fully automated transportation Think about how Spatial Computing will change the manufacturing industry Explore how finance and retail are going to be impacted through Spatial Computing devices Hear accounts from industry experts on what they expect Spatial Computing to bring to their sectors Who this book is for The Infinite Retina is for anyone interested in the future of technology and how Augmented Reality and Spatial Comp...
