    Abstract: For nearly a decade, Apache Kafka has been the go-to publish-subscribe (pub-sub) messaging system-and for good reason. It offers functionality for a wide range of enterprise use cases, along with a large ecosystem of tools and a dedicated community. But lately, upstart Apache Pulsar has been gaining ground. This detailed report explains why. Apache Pulsar takes the best parts of Kafka and expands on them to solve problems that were out of scope of Kafka's original design. Author Chris Bartholomew shows you how Kafka and Pulsar compare and where they differ. Engineers and other technical decision makers will learn the advantages that make Pulsar a compelling alternative to Kafka. Explore the architecture and major components of Kafka and Pulsar Discover the benefits of Pulsar's subscription model for messaging Understand how Pulsar simplifies the messaging system for organizations that need high performance pub-sub messaging, delivery guarantees, and traditional messaging patterns Learn how Pulsar's separation of serving and storing makes it natural to run in cloud native environments like Kubernetes See how Kafka and Pulsar perform on the OpenMessage Project benchmark

    Abstract: This book introduces an original fractional calculus methodology ('the infinite state approach') which is applied to the modeling of fractional order differential equations (FDEs) and systems (FDSs). Its modeling is based on the frequency distributed fractional integrator, while the resulting model corresponds to an integer order and infinite dimension state space representation. This original modeling allows the theoretical concepts of integer order systems to be generalized to fractional systems, with a particular emphasis on a convolution formulation.

    Abstract: Program in Python on a Raspberry Pi or PC by developing six computer games. Each game project is split into several chapters of the book. Rather than taking you through programming techniques as standalone concepts, this book explains concepts as they are used within a game. You'll learn about variables; integer, real, Boolean and string data types; conditional if statements; fixed loops and conditional loops; modularity; arrays and lists; and predefined functions. You'll also discover the PyGame library, which is popularly used in the development of 2D games. Key programming concepts are revisited in subsequent projects in the book to consolidate prior learning. Beyond teaching you how to code, this book explains the programming logic behind each project-exemplifying the process of designing and writing a computer game. All the projects in this book are supported by Code Angel (mycodeangel.com). Code Angel Code Angel largely serves students and new developers and the projects work by encouraging you to 'Learn...then play'. Taking this approach, you'll be able to build fun 2D games and enjoy playing them by yourself or with friends. Developing games in this way keeps you engaged, gives a purpose as you work through each project, and offers a sense of achievement when each game is finished. What You'll Learn Integrate the fundamentals of the Python 3 programming language Program fun, classic computer games you can then play Develop computational thinking skills and abilities that can be applied to other ventures Who This Book Is For Students, hobbyists, new developers or anyone wishing to learn how to design and write computer games.

    Abstract: Improving your craft is a key skill for product and user experience professionals working in the digital era. There are many established methods of product development to inspire and focus teams-Sprint, Lean, Agile, Kanban-all of which focus on solutions to customer and business problems. Enter XDPD, or Experiment-Driven Product Development-a new approach that turns the spotlight on questions to be answered, rather than on solutions. Within XDPD, discovery is a mindset, not a project phase. In Experiment-Driven Product Development , author Paul Rissen introduces a philosophy of product development that will hone your skills in discovery, research and learning. By guiding you through a practical, immediately applicable framework, you can learn to ask, and answer, questions which will supercharge your product development, making teams smarter and better at developing products and services that deliver for users and businesses alike. When applying the XDPD framework within your organization, the concept of an experiment-a structured way of asking, and answering, questions-becomes the foundation of almost everything you do, instilling a constant sense of discovery that keeps your team inspired. All types of activities, from data analysis to writing software, are seen through the lens of research. Rather than treating research as a separate task from the rest of product development, this book approaches the entire practice as one of research and continuous discovery. Designing successful experiments takes practice. That's where Rissen's years of industry expertise come in. In this book, you are given step-by-step tools to ensure that meaningful, efficient progress is made with each experiment. This approach will prove beneficial to your team, your users, and most importantly, to your product's lasting success. Experiment-Driven Product Development offers a greater appreciation of the craft of experimentation and helps you adapt it in your own context. In our modern age of innovation, XDPD can put you ahead. Go forth and experiment! What You Will Learn Know how to approach product development in a leaner, more efficient way Understand where and when experiments can be useful, and how they fit into pre-existing organization environments and processes Realize why you should be thinking about the simplest, useful thing rather than the minimum, viable product Discover how to break down feature and design ideas into the assumptions and the premises that ...

    Abstract: A comprehensive book of "need-to-know" insights for busy leaders Being a great leader means getting the fundamentals right. It also means consistently doing the "little things" that make a positive difference in the lives of employees, customers, and other stakeholders. The Busy Leader's Handbook: How to Lead People and Places That Thrive is a practical, easy-to-use book filled with gentle reminders of what we should be doing every day-especially when work is at its most intense. The Handbook is packed with proven best practices, tools, tips, and tactics for engaging employees, revitalizing cultures, delighting customers, and building high-performance companies. Short, succinct, and accessible, each chapter is "stand-alone," offering helpful advice for meeting common business challenges. Plus, the strategies, approaches, and tactics are designed to be put into action immediately. Best-selling author, businessman, visionary, and entrepreneur Quint Studer draws on his 30-plus years of experience in helping organizations of all sizes and leaders at every level reach peak performance. Comprehensive in scope, his book overflows with insights and practical advice to help you make smart leadership decisions. For example: Why putting the right foundational structures in place early on creates clarity and heads off problems that cause businesses to struggle and fail The importance of followership: why being a good leader requires that you first be a good follower Why we tend to run from self-disruption and a sense of being unsettled (and how to learn to embrace them instead) Why leaders should seek consent, not consensus How to engage employees and create a positive workplace culture How to help employees find meaning and purpose in their work How to conduct difficult conversations and resolve conflicts-and why having these skills (or not) can make or break you as a leader Advice for attracting and hiring the best talent, retaining them over time, and dealing with the low performers who drive them away Why mentoring is so powerful and how to encourage it inside your company Tips and tactics for seeing the world through your customer's eyes How to reduce customer anxiety (and encourage them to buy) with the right words at the right times for the right reasons The Busy Leader's Handbook functions as a desk reference and pocket guide for anyone in a leadership position. It's also a great training tool for onboarding new leaders. Whether you work for a sta...
