~~59,61€~~ 53,65€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The third edition of this textbook has been fully revised and adds material about the SSA form, polymorphism, garbage collection, and pattern matching. It presents techniques for making realistic compilers for simple to intermediate-complexity programming languages. The techniques presented in the book are close to those used in professional compilers, albeit in places slightly simplified for presentation purposes. "Further reading" sections point to material about the full versions of the techniques.All phases required for translating a high-level language to symbolic machine language are covered, and some techniques for optimising code are presented. Type checking and interpretation are also included. Aiming to be neutral with respect to implementation languages, algorithms are mostly presented in pseudo code rather than in any specific language, but suggestions are in many places given for how these can be realised in different language paradigms. Depending on how much of the material from the book is used, it is suitable for both undergraduate and graduate courses for introducing compiler design and implementation.

Introduction To Cybersecurity - A Multidisciplinary Challenge

de Robin Sharp

72,86€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book provides an introduction to the basic ideas involved in cybersecurity, whose principal aim is protection of IT systems against unwanted behaviour mediated by the networks which connect them. Due to the widespread use of the Internet in modern society for activities ranging from social networking and entertainment to distribution of utilities and public administration, failures of cybersecurity can threaten almost all aspects of life today.Cybersecurity is a necessity in the modern world, where computers and other electronic devices communicate via networks, and breakdowns in cybersecurity cost society many resources.The aims of cybersecurity are quite simple: data must not be read, modified, deleted or made unavailable by persons who are not allowed to. To meet this major challenge successfully in the digitally interconnected world, one needs to master numerous disciplines because modern IT systems contain software, cryptographic modules, computing units, networks, and human users—all of which can influence the success or failure in the effort.Topics and features:<ul><li>Introduces readers to the main components of a modern IT system: basic hardware, networks, operating system, and network-based applications</li><li>Contains numerous theoretical and practical exercises to illustrate important topics</li><li>Discusses protective mechanisms commonly used to ensure cybersecurity and how effective they are</li><li>Discusses the use of cryptography for achieving security in IT systems</li><li>Explains how to plan for protecting IT systems based on analysing the risk of various forms of failure</li><li>Illustrates how human users may affect system security and ways of improving their behaviour</li><li>Discusses what to do if a security failure takes place</li><li>Presents important legal concepts relevant for cybersecurity, including the concept of cybercrime</li></ul>This accessible, clear textbook is intended especially for students starting a relevant course in computer science or engineering, as well as for professionals looking for a general introduction to the topic.Dr. Robin Sharp is an emeritus professor in the Cybersecurity Section at DTU Compute, the Dept. of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU).

Programming Languages: Principles And Paradigms

de Maurizio Gabbrielli e Simone Martini

66,24€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This textbook is a thorough, up-to-date introduction to the principles and techniques that guide the design and implementation of modern programming languages. The goal of the book is to provide the basis for a critical understanding of most modern programming languages. Thus, rather than focusing on a specific language, the book identifies the most important principles shared by large classes of languages. The notion of ‘abstract machine’ is a unifying concept that helps to maintain an accurate and elementary treatment. The book introduces, analyses in depth, and compares the imperative, object-oriented, functional, logic, concurrent, constraint-based, and service-oriented programming paradigms. All material coming from the first English edition has been updated and extended, clarifying some tricky points, and discussing newer programming languages. This second edition contains new chapters dedicated to constraint, concurrent, and service-oriented programming.Topics and features:<ul><li>Requires familiarity with one programming language is a prerequisite</li><li>Provides a chapter on history offering context for most of the constructs in use today</li><li>Presents an elementary account of semantical approaches and of computability</li><li>Introduces new examples in modern programming languages like Python or Scala</li><li>Offers a chapter that opens a perspective on applications in artificial intelligence</li></ul>Conceived as a university textbook, this unique volume will also be suitable for IT specialists who want to deepen their knowledge of the mechanisms behind the languages they use. The choice of themes and the presentation style are largely influenced by the experience of teaching the content as part of a bachelor''s degree in computer science.
