Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid by Douglas R. Hofstadter, ISBN-13: 978-0465026562 [PDF eBook eTextbook] Publisher: ‎ Basic Books; 20th Anniversary ed. edition (February 5, 1999) Language: ‎ English ‎824 pages ISBN-10: ‎ 0465026567 ISBN-13: ‎ 978-0465026562 A metaphorical fugue on minds and machines in the spirit of Lewis Carroll. Douglas Hofstadter’s book is concerned directly with the nature of “maps” or links between formal systems. However, according to Hofstadter, the formal system that underlies all mental activity transcends the system that supports it. If life can grow out of the formal chemical substrate of the cell, if consciousness can emerge out of a formal system of firing neurons, then so too will computers attain human intelligence. Gödel, Escher, Bach is a wonderful exploration of fascinating ideas at the heart of cognitive science: meaning, reduction, recursion, and much more. Twenty years after it topped the bestseller charts, Douglas R. Hofstadter’s Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid is still something of a marvel. Besides being a profound and entertaining meditation on human thought and creativity, this book looks at the surprising points of contact between the music of Bach, the artwork of Escher, and the mathematics of Gödel. It also looks at the prospects for computers and artificial intelligence (AI) for mimicking human thought. For the general reader and the computer techie alike, this book still sets a standard for thinking about the future of computers and their relation to the way we think. Hofstadter’s great achievement in Gödel, Escher, Bach was making abstruse mathematical topics (like undecidability, recursion, and ‘strange loops’) accessible and remarkably entertaining. Borrowing a page from Lewis Carroll (who might well have been a fan of this book), each chapter presents dialogue between the Tortoise and Achilles, as well as other characters who dramatize concepts discussed later in more detail. Allusions to Bach’s music (centering on his Musical Offering) and Escher’s continually paradoxical artwork are plentiful here. This more approachable material lets the author delve into serious number theory (concentrating on the ramifications of Gödel’s Theorem of Incompleteness) while stopping along the way to ponder the work of a host of other mathematicians, artists, and thinkers. The world has moved on since 1979, of course. The book predicted that computers probably won’t ever beat humans in chess, though Deep Blue beat Garry Kasparov in 1997. And the vinyl record, which serves for some of Hofstadter’s best analogies, is now left to collectors. Sections on recursion and the graphs of certain functions from physics look tantalizing, like the fractals of recent chaos theory. And AI has moved on, of course, with mixed results. Yet Gödel, Escher, Bach remains a remarkable achievement. Its intellectual range and ability to let us visualize difficult mathematical concepts help make it one of this century’s best for anyone who’s interested in computers and their potential for real intelligence. –Richard Dragan Topics Covered: J.S. Bach, M.C. Escher, Kurt Gödel: biographical information and work, artificial intelligence (AI) history and theories, strange loops and tangled hierarchies, formal and informal systems, number theory, form in mathematics, figure and ground, consistency, completeness, Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry, recursive structures, theories of meaning, propositional calculus, typographical number theory, Zen and mathematics, levels of description and computers; theory of mind: neurons, minds and thoughts; undecidability; self-reference and self-representation; Turing test for machine intelligence. Douglas R. Hofstadter is College of Arts and Sciences Professor of Cognitive Science and Computer Science at Indiana University, Bloomington, where he also directs the Center for Research on Concepts and Cognition. He is the author or co-author of nine books, including I Am a Strange Loop and Surfaces and Essences, and has contributed to ten more. He lives in Bloomington.

Machine Learning in Your Projects So, naturally you are excited about Machine Learning and would love to join the party! Perhaps you would like to give your homemade robot a brain of its own? Make it recognize faces? Or teach it to walk around? Or maybe your company has tons of data (user logs, financial data, production data, machine sensor data, hotline stats, HR reports, etc.), and you could likely unearth some hidden gems if you just knew where to look. With Machine Learning, you could accomplish the following: Segment customers and find the best marketing strategy for each group Recommend products for each client based on what similar clients bought Detect which transactions are likely to be fraudulent Forecast next year’s revenue And more Objective and Approach This book assumes that you know close to nothing about Machine Learning. Its goal is to give you the concepts, tools, and intuition you need to implement programs capable of learning from data. We will cover a large number of techniques, from the simplest and most commonly used (such as linear regression) to some of the Deep Learning techniques that regularly win competitions. Rather than implementing our own toy versions of each algorithm, we will be using production-ready Python frameworks: Scikit-Learn is very easy to use, yet it implements many Machine Learning algorithms efficiently, so it makes for a great entry point to learn Machine Learning. TensorFlow is a more complex library for distributed numerical computation. It makes it possible to train & run very large neural networks efficiently by distributing the computations across potentially hundreds of multi-GPU servers. TensorFlow was created at Google and supports many of its large-scale applications. It’s been open source since Nov. 2015, with version 2.0 releasing Oct 2019. Keras is a high-level Deep Learning API that makes it very simple to train and run neural networks. It can run on top of either TensorFlow, Theano, or Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit (formerly known as CNTK). TensorFlow comes with its own implementation of this API, called tf.keras, which provides support for some advanced TensorFlow features (e.g., the ability to efficiently load data). Aurélien Géron is a machine learning consultant and trainer. A former Googler, he led YouTube’s video classification team from 2013 to 2016. He was also a founder and CTO of Wifirst (a leading Wireless ISP in France) from 2002 to 2012, and a founder and CTO of two consulting firms — Polyconseil (telecom, media and strategy) and Kiwisoft (machine learning and data privacy). Before this he worked as an engineer in a variety of domains: finance (JP Morgan and Société Générale), defense (Canada’s DOD), and healthcare (blood transfusion). He published a few technical books (on C++, WiFi, and Internet architectures), and was a Computer Science lecturer in a French engineering school. A few fun facts: he taught his 3 children to count in binary with their fingers (up to 1023), he studied microbiology and evolutionary genetics before going into software engineering, and his parachute didn’t open on the 2nd jump.

Implementing Domain-Driven Design 1st Edition, ISBN-13: 978-0321834577 [PDF eBook eTextbook]   Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional; 1st edition (February 6, 2013) Language: English 656 pages ISBN-10: 9780321834577 ISBN-13: 978-0321834577   Implementing Domain-Driven Design presents a top-down approach to understanding domain-driven design (DDD) in a way that fluently connects strategic patterns to fundamental tactical programming tools. Vaughn Vernon couples guided approaches to implementation with modern architectures, highlighting the importance and value of focusing on the business domain while balancing technical considerations. Building on Eric Evans’ seminal book, Domain-Driven Design, the author presents practical DDD techniques through examples from familiar domains. Each principle is backed up by realistic Java examples–all applicable to C# developers–and all content is tied together by a single case study: the delivery of a large-scale Scrum-based SaaS system for a multitenant environment. The author takes you far beyond “DDD-lite” approaches that embrace DDD solely as a technical toolset, and shows you how to fully leverage DDD’s “strategic design patterns” using Bounded Context, Context Maps, and the Ubiquitous Language. Using these techniques and examples, you can reduce time to market and improve quality, as you build software that is more flexible, more scalable, and more tightly aligned to business goals. Coverage includes: Getting started the right way with DDD, so you can rapidly gain value from it Using DDD within diverse architectures, including Hexagonal, SOA, REST, CQRS, Event-Driven, and Fabric/Grid-Based Appropriately designing and applying Entities–and learning when to use Value Objects instead Mastering DDD’s powerful new Domain Events technique Designing Repositories for ORM, NoSQL, and other databases Vaughn Vernon is a veteran software craftsman with more than twenty-five years of experience in software design, development, and architecture. He is a thought leader in simplifying software design and implementation using innovative methods. He has been programming with object-oriented languages since the 1980s, and applying the tenets of Domain-Driven Design since his Smalltalk domain modeling days in the early 1990s. He consults and speaks internationally, and has taught his Implementing Domain-Driven Design classes on multiple continents.

Information Systems for Managers With Cases 4.0 4th Edition, ISBN-13: 978-1943153503 [PDF eBook eTextbook]   Publisher: Prospect Press; 4.0 edition (January 1, 2019) Language: English 386 pages ISBN-10: 9781943153503 ISBN-13: 978-1943153503   Information Systems for Managers focuses on what students need to know to be effective managers in the modern firm. Building from a discussion of fundamental concepts, Piccoli and Pigni use a practical and applied approach, not only to demonstrate the strategic importance of IS, but also to impart methods for creating and maintaining value. Far more than a summary of IS topics, the book empowers readers to realize the transformative business potential of IT. This book is inspired by the notion that today, half a century into the “information age,” general and functional managers must be able to actively and knowledgeably participate in discussion and decisions about information systems and information technology. We designed this book from the ground up, based on what has worked and proven useful to advanced undergraduate, master of management, and executive management students we have taught over the past 20 years in the United States and in Europe. Thus, the topics this book covers; its writing style; and the examples, mini cases, and full length cases we use are all carefully chosen to be both relevant and engaging to an audience of students who may or may not plan to become information systems specialists. In interactions with executives of large and small firms, we find that both general and functional managers need to be able to do two things when it comes to information systems decisions: 1. Evaluate the plethora of modern information technology and trends —from a strategic not a technical standpoint—in order to be able to identify and use the technology/technologies that will generate value for the organization. 2. Become effective partners of the information systems’ function. To this end, they need to be familiar with those areas where they will have to come in contact with information systems professionals. The main foci of this book are therefore the strategic role of information systems in the modern firm and the design and implementation of IT dependent strategic initiatives. Over the years we have come to believe that master’s and executive MBA students, as well as undergraduates with an interest in information systems, don’t need a “breadth book” that offers an overview knowledge of technology and technology issues. They are best served by an “analytics tools–focused” book that offers them frameworks and tangible guidance on how to ensure that their firms benefit from information systems and technology efforts. We designed this book and we write every revision to provide such a toolkit for them. Thus, this is not a text about IT and how IT works. This is a book about the information system and information technology resource and how it should be optimally deployed to achieve an organization’s objectives. In other words, this book treats IT like any other organizational resource—an asset that general and functional managers alike need to understand enough to be able to plan for, select, deploy, and effectively manage with a keen eye to its strategic potential. The ultimate goal is to be able to create and appropriate value for their organizations. Gabriele Piccoli, Louisiana State University. Federico Pigni, Grenoble School of Management.

Information Warfare 2nd Edition by Daniel Ventre, ISBN-13: 978-1848216600 [PDF eBook eTextbook]    352 pages ISBN-10: 1848216602 ISBN-13: 978-1848216600  Publisher: Wiley-ISTE; 2nd Edition (February 15, 2016) Language: English   Cyberspace is one of the major bases of the economic development of industrialized societies and developing. The dependence of modern society in this technological area is also one of its vulnerabilities. Cyberspace allows new power policy and strategy, broadens the scope of the actors of the conflict by offering to both state and non-state new weapons, new ways of offensive and defensive operations. This book deals with the concept of “information war”, covering its development over the last two decades and seeks to answer the following questions: is the control of the information space really possible remains or she a utopia? What power would confer such control, what are the benefits? Daniel Ventre is an engineer for CNRS, a researcher for CESDIP (Centre de recherches sociologiques sur le droit et les institutions pénales), and in charge of courses at Télécom ParisTech and at the ESSEC Business School. He is the author of a number of articles and works, in France and abroad, on the themes of cyberwar, information warfare, cyberconflict, cybersecurity and cyberdefense.

Introduction to Algorithms 3rd Edition by Thomas H. Cormen, ISBN-13: 978-0262033848 [PDF eBook eTextbook] The latest edition of the essential text and professional reference, with substantial new material on such topics as vEB trees, multithreaded algorithms, dynamic programming, and edge-based flow. Some books on algorithms are rigorous but incomplete; others cover masses of material but lack rigor. Introduction to Algorithms uniquely combines rigor and comprehensiveness. The book covers a broad range of algorithms in depth, yet makes their design and analysis accessible to all levels of readers. Each chapter is relatively self-contained and can be used as a unit of study. The algorithms are described in English and in a pseudocode designed to be readable by anyone who has done a little programming. The explanations have been kept elementary without sacrificing depth of coverage or mathematical rigor. The first edition became a widely used text in universities worldwide as well as the standard reference for professionals. The second edition featured new chapters on the role of algorithms, probabilistic analysis and randomized algorithms, and linear programming. The third edition has been revised and updated throughout. It includes two completely new chapters, on van Emde Boas trees and multithreaded algorithms, substantial additions to the chapter on recurrence (now called “Divide-and-Conquer”), and an appendix on matrices. It features improved treatment of dynamic programming and greedy algorithms and a new notion of edge-based flow in the material on flow networks. Many exercises and problems have been added for this edition. The international paperback edition is no longer available; the hardcover is available worldwide. Editorial Reviews “In light of the explosive growth in the amount of data and the diversity of computing applications, efficient algorithms are needed now more than ever. This beautifully written, thoughtfully organized book is the definitive introductory book on the design and analysis of algorithms. The first half offers an effective method to teach and study algorithms; the second half then engages more advanced readers and curious students with compelling material on both the possibilities and the challenges in this fascinating field.”–Shang-Hua Teng, University of Southern California “”Introduction to Algorithms, ” the ‘bible’ of the field, is a comprehensive textbook covering the full spectrum of modern algorithms: from the fastest algorithms and data structures to polynomial-time algorithms for seemingly intractable problems, from classical algorithms in graph theory to special algorithms for string matching, computational geometry, and number theory. The revised third edition notably adds a chapter on van Emde Boas trees, one of the most useful data structures, and on multithreaded algorithms, a topic of increasing importance.”–Daniel Spielman, Department of Computer Science, Yale University “As an educator and researcher in the field of algorithms for over two decades, I can unequivocally say that the Cormen book is the best textbook that I have ever seen on this subject. It offers an incisive, encyclopedic, and modern treatment of algorithms, and our department will continue to use it for teaching at both the graduate and undergraduate levels, as well as a reliable research reference.”–Gabriel Robins, Department of Computer Science, University of Virginia Review As an educator and researcher in the field of algorithms for over two decades, I can unequivocally say that the Cormen et al book is the best textbook that I have ever seen on this subject. It offers an incisive, encyclopedic, and modern treatment of algorithms, and our department will continue to use it for teaching at both the graduate and undergraduate levels, as well as a reliable research reference. ―Gabriel Robins, Department of Computer Science, University of Virginia Introduction to Algorithms, the ‘bible’ of the field, is a comprehensive textbook covering the full spectrum of modern algorithms: from the fastest algorithms and data structures to polynomial-time algorithms for seemingly intractable problems, from classical algorithms in graph theory to special algorithms for string matching, computational geometry, and number theory.
