    Keywords: Electronic books ; local ; LINUX
    Abstract: Unlike some operating systems, Linux doesn’t try to hide the important bits from you—it gives you full control of your computer. But to truly master Linux, you need to understand its internals, like how the system boots, how networking works, and what the kernel actually does. In this third edition of the bestselling How Linux Works , author Brian Ward peels back the layers of this well-loved operating system to make Linux internals accessible. This edition has been thoroughly updated and expanded with added coverage of Logical Volume Manager (LVM), virtualization, and containers. You'll learn: •How Linux boots, from boot loaders to init (systemd) •How the kernel manages devices, device drivers, and processes •How networking, interfaces, firewalls, and servers work •How development tools work and relate to shared libraries •How to write effective shell scripts You’ll also explore the kernel and examine key system tasks inside user space, including system calls, input and output, and filesystems. With its combination of background, theory, real-world examples, and patient explanations, How Linux Works , 3rd edition will teach you what you need to know to solve pesky problems and take control of your operating system.

    Keywords: Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: If you know how to program, you're ready to tackle Bayesian statistics. With this book, you'll learn how to solve statistical problems with Python code instead of mathematical formulas, using discrete probability distributions rather than continuous mathematics. Once you get the math out of the way, the Bayesian fundamentals will become clearer and you'll begin to apply these techniques to real-world problems. Bayesian statistical methods are becoming more common and more important, but not many resources are available to help beginners. Based on undergraduate classes taught by author Allen Downey, this book's computational approach helps you get a solid start. Use your programming skills to learn and understand Bayesian statistics Work with problems involving estimation, prediction, decision analysis, evidence, and Bayesian hypothesis testing Get started with simple examples, using coins, dice, and a bowl of cookies Learn computational methods for solving real-world problems

    Keywords: Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: Revamp Your Architectural Practices for New Challenges, Environments, and Stakeholder Expectations "This book recognizes that software architecture is not the merely conceptual domain of disconnected experts but is the . . . give-and-take daily tussle of team members who have to balance trade-offs and competing forces to deliver resilient, high-performing, secure applications. . . . [It] bridges the significant gap between the 'Earth from orbit' view and the pavement-level view of refactoring microservice code." --Kurt Bittner, VP, Enterprise Solutions, Scrum.org Authors Murat Erder, Pierre Pureur, and Eoin Woods have taken their extensive enterprise architecture experience and applied it to the practical aspects of continuous architecture in real-world environments. Continuous Architecture in Practice provides hands-on advice for leveraging continuous architecture in real-world environments and illuminates architecture's changing role in the age of Agile, DevSecOps, and cloud platforms. This guide will help technologists update their architecture practice for new application challenges. As part of the Vaughn Vernon Addison-Wesley Signature Series, this title was hand-selected for the practical, delivery-oriented knowledge that architects and software engineers can quickly apply. It includes in-depth guidance for addressing today's key quality attributes, including cross-cutting concerns such as security, performance, scalability, resilience, data, and innovation. Each key technique is demonstrated through a start-to-finish case study reflecting the authors' deep experience evolving complex software environments. Create sustainable, coherent systems that meet functional requirements and the quality attributes stakeholders care about Understand team-based software architecture and architecture as a "flow of decisions" Reflect varied data technologies and crucial issues of data management, integration, and change Architect for security, including continuous threat modeling and mitigation Use architecture to improve performance in continuous delivery environments Architect for scalability and scale microservices and serverless environments Use architecture to apply emerging technologies more successfully

    RVK:
    Keywords: Electronic books
    Abstract: Get to grips with various performance improvement techniques such as concurrency, lock-free programming, atomic operations, parallelism, and memory management Key Features Understand the limitations of modern CPUs and their performance impact Find out how you can avoid writing inefficient code and get the best optimizations from the compiler Learn the tradeoffs and costs of writing high-performance programs Book Description The great free lunch of "performance taking care of itself" is over. Until recently, programs got faster by themselves as CPUs were upgraded, but that doesn't happen anymore. The clock frequency of new processors has almost peaked. New architectures provide small improvements to existing programs, but this only helps slightly. Processors do get larger and more powerful, but most of this new power is consumed by the increased number of processing cores and other "extra" computing units. To write efficient software, you now have to know how to program by making good use of the available computing resources, and this book will teach you how to do that. The book covers all the major aspects of writing efficient programs, such as using CPU resources and memory efficiently, avoiding unnecessary computations, measuring performance, and how to put concurrency and multithreading to good use. You'll also learn about compiler optimizations and how to use the programming language (C++) more efficiently. Finally, you'll understand how design decisions impact performance. By the end of this book, you'll not only have enough knowledge of processors and compilers to write efficient programs, but you'll also be able to understand which techniques to use and what to measure while improving performance. At its core, this book is about learning how to learn. What you will learn Discover how to use the hardware computing resources in your programs effectively Understand the relationship between memory order and memory barriers Familiarize yourself with the performance implications of different data structures and organizations Assess the performance impact of concurrent memory accessed and how to minimize it Discover when to use and when not to use lock-free programming techniques Explore different ways to improve the effectiveness of compiler optimizations Design APIs for concurrent data structures and high-performance data structures to avoid inefficiencies Who this book is for This book is for experienced developers and programmers who work ...

    Keywords: Electronic books ; local ; Mensch-Maschine-Kommunikation ; Webdesign ; Gebrauchsgrafik ; Benutzerfreundlichkeit ; Verhaltenspsychologie
    Abstract: Jon Yablonski erklärt in diesem Buch, wie UX-Designerinnen Grundprinzipien aus der Psychologie nutzen können, um eine bessere User Experience zu generieren. Anstatt Benutzerinnen zu zwingen, sich an das Design eines Produkts (z. B. App) anzupassen, hilft dieser praktische Leitfaden dabei, das Design danach auszurichten, wie Benutzer*innen sich verhalten und mit digitalen Schnittstellen interagieren, um ihre Nutzung einfacher und angenehmer zu gestalten. Dabei greift der Autor auf bekannte Regeln und Prinzipien aus der psychologischen Forschung zurück und überträgt sie in die UX-Design-Welt. So sprechen wir beispielsweise einer App mit schönem Design mehr Kompetenz zu und verzeihen ihr eher Fehler, oder erwarten von einem Onlineshop, dass der Kaufprozess so funktionieren, wie wir es von anderen Shops gewohnt sind. Außerdem können wir eine große Menge an Informationen besser speichern und verarbeiten, wenn sie in Chunks gegliedert sind, weshalb etwa Texte, die mithilfe von Überschriften und Absätzen gegliedert sind, eine höhere UX generieren als ein langer Fließtext, der die User überfordert. Nachdem der Autor die verschiedenen Prinzipien erklärt und an anschaulichen, einfach nachzuvollziehenden Beispielen demonstriert hat, zeigt er, wie man diese Prinzipien praktisch für die eigene Arbeit und im Team nutzen kann. Zusätzlich geht er auch auf die ethischen Komponenten ein (Beispiele: Endlos-Scrollen, Like-Button).

    Abstract: Praxiswissen für IT Security Manager Mit einem durchdachten IT-Sicherheitskonzept zu mehr Informationssicherheit IT Compliance, Business Continuity Management, Risikomanagement oder Security Audit – alle Bereiche des IT Security Managers praxisnah erklärt Aufbau eines Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) nach ISO 27001 und BSI – unter Berücksichtigung der neuen DSGVO Immer mehr Daten werden in Public Clouds verarbeitet, auf Mobiltelefonen gespeichert, über Chat-Apps geteilt oder im Rahmen von Industrie 4.0 in einer Größenordnung erhoben, die bislang kaum denkbar war. Die entsprechenden Maßnahmen der IT-Security müssen sich an diese Veränderungen anpassen. Ebenso wie an die EU-Datenschutz-Grundverordnung, das IT-Sicherheitsgesetz oder das China Cybersecurity Law. Alle diese Regelungen haben immense Auswirkungen darauf, wie Unternehmen Daten erfassen, verarbeiten, speichern oder austauschen dürfen. In der Fülle und der Bandbreite der neuen Regelungen liegt aber immer auch die Gefahr, etwas falsch zu machen. Dieser Praxisleitfaden wird Ihnen dabei helfen, von der schieren Menge an Einzelthemen und Aufgaben, mit denen sich der (angehende) IT Security Manager auseinanderzusetzen hat, nicht erschlagen zu werden und den richtigen Weg zu wählen, um mit all diesen Anforderungen umzugehen. Jedes Kapitel dieses Buches beschreibt einen zusammenhängenden Bereich der IT Security. Die notwendige theoretische Fundierung wechselt sich dabei ab mit Tipps aus der Praxis für die Praxis, mit für den Berufsalltag typischen Fragestellungen, vielen konkreten Beispielen und hilfreichen Checklisten. Alle Teilgebiete werden abschließend in einem Kapitel zusammengeführt, das die Einführung und Weiterentwicklung eines IT-Sicherheitsmanagements auf Basis der ISO-27000-Normen-Familie unter Beachtung der datenschutzrechtlichen Bestimmungen der EU-DSGVO behandelt. So erhalten Sie sowohl einen kompetenten Praxisleitfaden (auch für den Berufseinstieg) als auch ein umfassendes Nachschlagewerk für Ihre tägliche Arbeit.

    Abstract: Recent years have seen unprecedented public scrutiny over the tax practices of Multinational Enterprise (MNE) groups. Tax policy and administration concerning international transactions, aggressive tax planning, and tax avoidance have become an issue of extensive national and international debate in developed and developing countries alike. Within this context, transfer pricing, historically a subject of limited specialist interest, has attained name recognition amongst a broader global audience that is concerned with equitable fiscal policy and sustainable development. Abusive transfer pricing practices are considered to pose major risk to the direct tax base of many countries and developing countries are particularly vulnerable because corporate tax tends to account for a larger share of their revenue. This handbook is part of the wider WBG engagement in supporting countries with Domestic Resource Mobilization (DRM) by protecting their tax base and aims to cover all relevant aspects that have to be considered when introducing or strengthening transfer pricing regimes. The handbook provides guidance on analytical steps that can be taken to understand a country's potential exposure to inappropriate transfer pricing (transfer mispricing) and outlines the main areas that require attention in the design and implementation of transfer pricing regimes. A discussion of relevant aspects of the legislative process, including the formulation of a transfer pricing policy, and the role and content of administrative guidance, is combined with the presentation of country examples on the practical application and implementation of the arm's length principle and on running an effective transfer pricing audit program. Recognizing the importance of transfer pricing regulation and administration for the business environment and investor confidence, this handbook aims to balance the general objective of protecting a country's tax base and raising additional revenue with investment climate considerations wherever appropriate

    Abstract: Remittances remain a key source of funds for developing countries, far exceeding official development assistance and even foreign direct investment. Remittances have proved to be more stable than private debt and portfolio equity flows, and less volatile than official aid flows, and their annual flow can match or surpass foreign exchange reserves in many small countries. Even in large emerging markets, such as India, remittances are equivalent to at least a quarter of total foreign exchange reserves. India, China, Philippines and Mexico are the top recipients of migrant remittances. The Migration and Remittances Factbook 2016 attempts to present numbers and facts behind the stories of international migration and remittances, drawing on authoritative, publicly available data. It provides a snapshot of statistics on immigration, emigration, skilled emigration, and remittance flows for 210 countries and 15 regional and income groups. The Migration and Remittances Factbook 2016 updates the 2011 edition of the Factbook with additional data on bilateral migration and remittances and second generation diasporas, collected from various sources, including national censuses, labor force surveys, population registers, and other national sources

    Abstract: The world economy is not what it used to be twenty years ago. For most of the 20th century, the world economy was characterized by developed (North) countries acting as 'center' to a 'periphery' of developing (South) countries. However, the recent rise of developing economies suggests the need to go beyond this North-South dichotomy. This tectonic re-configuration of the global landscape has brought about significant changes to countries in the Latin America and Caribean (LAC) region. The time is ripe for an in-depth analysis of the dynamics and nature of LAC's external connections.This latest volume in the World Bank Latin American and Caribbean Studies series will focus on the implications of these trends for the economic development of LAC countries. In particular, trade, financial, macroeconomic, and sectoral shifts, as well as labor-market aspects will be systematically analyzed

    Abstract: Beyond its terrible toll in human lives and suffering, the Ebola epidemic has inflicted a measurable economic impact on West Africa in terms of forgone output, higher fiscal deficits, rising prices, lower real household incomes, and greater poverty. This impact results partly from the health-care costs and forgone productivity associated with being infected, but it is driven principally by the efforts of the uninfected population to avoid exposure ('aversion behavior'). The Economic Impact of the 2014 Ebola Epidemic: Short- and Medium-Term Estimates for West Africa provides a mixed methods analysis of the economic impact, combining theory on the channels of economic impact of the epidemic, economic indicators across sectors in the affected countries, and models of how these economies interact with each other and with the broader world. The result is a quantification of the potential overall magnitude of the economic impact for Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone, as well as for West Africa as a whole. Ebola's short-term economic impact (2014) in the three core countries is on the order of US

    Abstract: In December 2009, Google began customizing its search results for each user. Instead of giving you the most broadly popular result, Google now tries to predict what you are most likely to click on. According to MoveOn.org board president Eli Pariser, Google's change in policy is symptomatic of the most significant shift to take place on the Web in recent years-the rise of personalization. In this groundbreaking investigation of the new hidden Web, Pariser uncovers how this growing trend threatens to control how we consume and share information as a society-and reveals what we can do about it. Though the phenomenon has gone largely undetected until now, personalized filters are sweeping the Web, creating individual universes of information for each of us. Facebook-the primary news source for an increasing number of Americans-prioritizes the links it believes will appeal to you so that if you are a liberal, you can expect to see only progressive links. Even an old-media bastion like The Washington Post devotes the top of its home page to a news feed with the links your Facebook friends are sharing. Behind the scenes, a burgeoning industry of data companies is tracking your personal information to sell to advertisers, from your political leanings to the color you painted your living room to the hiking boots you just browsed on Zappos. In a personalized world, we will increasingly be typed and fed only news that is pleasant, familiar, and confirms our beliefs-and because these filters are invisible, we won't know what is being hidden from us. Our past interests will determine what we are exposed to in the future, leaving less room for the unexpected encounters that spark creativity, innovation, and the democratic exchange of ideas. While we all worry that the Internet is eroding privacy or shrinking our attention spans, Pariser uncovers a more pernicious and far-reaching trend and shows how we can-and must-change course. With vivid detail and remarkable scope, The Filter Bubble reveals how personalization undermines the Internet's original purpose as an open platform for the spread of ideas and could leave us all in an isolated, echoing world.

    Abstract: Using panel data for the fourteen major states of India over the 1980-2000 period, the authors estimate the effect of human capital endowment on the performance of the state economies. They find that greater availability of skilled workers had a positive and significant impact on output in the service sectors. They do not find any such effect for the manufacturing sectors. The paper shows that the differential effect on services and manufacturing arises because service sectors are more skill intensive

    Abstract: Australia's lackluster economic growth performance in the first four decades following World War II was in part due to an anti-trade, anti-primary sector bias in government assistance policies. This paper provides new annual estimates of the extent of those biases since 1946 and their gradual phase-out during the past two decades. In doing so it reveals that the timing of the sector assistance cuts was such as sometimes to improve but sometimes to worsen the distortions to incentives faced by farmers. The changes increased the variation of assistance rates within agriculture during the 1950s and 1960s, reducing the welfare contribution of those programs in that period. Although the assistance pattern within agriculture appears not to have been strongly biased against exporters, its reform has coincided with a substantial increase in the export orientation of many farm industries. The overall pattern for Australia is contrasted with that revealed by comparable new estimates for other high-income countries

    Abstract: While barriers to trade in most goods and some services including capital flows have been reduced considerably over the past two decades, many remain. Such policies harm most the economies imposing them, but the worst of the merchandise barriers (in agriculture and textiles) are particularly harmful to the world's poorest people, as are barriers to worker migration across borders. This paper focuses on how costly those anti-poor trade policies are, and examines possible strategies to reduce remaining distortions. Two opportunities in particular are addressed: completing the Doha Development Agenda process at the World Trade Organization (WTO), and freeing up the international movement of workers. A review of the economic benefits and adjustment costs associated with these opportunities provides the foundation to undertake benefit/cost analysis required to rank this set of opportunities against those aimed at addressing the world's other key challenges as part of the Copenhagen Consensus project. The paper concludes with key caveats and suggests that taking up these opportunities could generate huge social benefit/cost ratios that are considerably higher than the direct economic ones quantified in this study, even without factoring in their contribution to alleviating several of the other challenges identified by that project, including malnutrition, disease, poor education and air pollution

    Abstract: With the competitiveness of firms in an open and integrated world environment increasingly reliant on technological capability, universities are being asked to take on a growing role in stimulating economic growth. Beyond imparting education, they are now viewed as sources of industrially valuable technical skills, innovations, and entrepreneurship. Developed and developing countries alike have made it a priority to realize this potential of universities to spur growth, a strategy that calls for coordinated policy actions

    Abstract: This paper investigates the determinants of productivity in Indian manufacturing industries during the period 1988-2000. Using two-digit industry level data for the Indian states, we find evidence of imperfect interindustry and interstate labor mobility as well as misallocation of resources across industries and states. Trade liberalization increases productivity in all industries across all states, and productivity is higher in the less protected industries. These effects of protection and trade liberalization are more pronounced in states that have relatively more flexible labor markets. Similar effects are also found in the case of employment, capital stock and investment. Furthermore, labor market flexibility, independent of other policies, has a positive effect on productivity. Importantly, per capita state development expenditure seems to be the strongest and the most robust predictor of productivity, employment, capital stock and investment. Industrial delicensing increases both labor productivity and employment but only in the states with flexible labor market institutions. Even after controlling for delicensing, the analysis shows that trade liberalization has a productivity-enhancing effect. Finally, trade liberalization benefits most the export-oriented industries located in states with flexible labor-market institutions

    Abstract: The first book to deal with the problems of communicating to a skeptical, media-blitzed public, Positioning describes a revolutionary approach to creating a "position" in a prospective customer's mind-one that reflects a company's own strengths and weaknesses as well as those of its competitors. Writing in their trademark witty, fast-paced style, advertising gurus Ries and Trout explain how to: • Make and position an industry leader so that its name and message wheedles its way into the collective subconscious of your market-and stays there • Position a follower so that it can occupy a niche not claimed by the leader • Avoid letting a second product ride on the coattails of an established one. Positioning also shows you how to: • Use leading ad agency techniques to capture the biggest market share and become a household name • Build your strategy around your competition's weaknesses • Reposition a strong competitor and create a weak spot • Use your present position to its best advantage • Choose the best name for your product • Determine when-and why-less is more • Analyze recent trends that affect your positioning. Ries and Trout provide many valuable case histories and penetrating analyses of some of the most phenomenal successes and failures in advertising history. Revised to reflect significant developments in the five years since its original publication, Positioning is required reading for anyone in business today.
