versed with all the features of Microsoft SQL Server 2019 and
understand how to use them confidently to build robust data
management solutions. What you will learn Build a custom container
image with a Dockerfile Deploy and run the SQL Server 2019
container image Understand how to use SQL server on Linux Migrate
existing paginated reports to Power BI Report Server Learn to query
Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) data using Azure Data Studio
Understand the benefits of In-Memory OLTP Who this book is forThis
book is for database administrators, architects, big data
engineers, or anyone who has experience with SQL Server and wants
to explore and implement the new features in SQL Server 2019. Basic
working knowledge of SQL Server and relational database management
system (RDBMS) is required.
Discover the advanced features of Solidity that will help you write
high-quality code and develop secure smart contracts with the
latest ERC standards Key Features Delve into Solidity and
understand control structures, function calls, and variable scopes
Explore tools for developing, testing, and debugging your
blockchain applications Learn advanced design patterns and best
practices for writing secure smart contracts Book
DescriptionSolidity is among the most popular and contract-oriented
programming languages used for writing decentralized applications
(DApps) on Ethereum blockchain. If you're looking to perfect your
skills in writing professional-grade smart contracts using
Solidity, this book can help. You will get started with a detailed
introduction to blockchain, smart contracts, and Ethereum, while
also gaining useful insights into the Solidity programming
language. A dedicated section will then take you through the
different Ethereum Request for Comments (ERC) standards, including
ERC-20, ERC-223, and ERC-721, and demonstrate how you can choose
among these standards while writing smart contracts. As you
approach later chapters, you will cover the different smart
contracts available for use in libraries such as OpenZeppelin.
You'll also learn to use different open source tools to test,
review and improve the quality of your code and make it
production-ready. Toward the end of this book, you'll get to grips
with techniques such as adding security to smart contracts, and
gain insights into various security considerations. By the end of
this book, you will have the skills you need to write secure,
production-ready smart contracts in Solidity from scratch for
decentralized applications on Ethereum blockchain. What you will
learn Test and debug smart contracts with Truffle, Ganache, Remix,
and MetaMask Gain insights into maintaining code quality with
different tools Get up to speed with ERC standards such as ERC-20
and ERC-721 Become adept at using design patterns while writing
smart contracts Use MultiSignature (MultiSig) wallets and improve
the security of contracts Use Oracle services to fetch information
from outside the blockchain Who this book is forThis book is for
developers and data scientists who want to learn Ethereum,
blockchain, and Solidity to write smart contracts and develop
production-ready code. Basic knowledge of Solidity is assumed.
Emerging scientific and industrial applications in today's world
require significant computing power. Modern software tools are
available for such platforms but are relatively complex and require
the use of innovative programming models. One promising area in
modern software design is the development, analysis, and
implementation of algorithms and adaptive methods. These
advancements in programming are promising but lack relevant
research and understanding. Formal and Adaptive Methods for
Automation of Parallel Programs Construction: Emerging Research and
Opportunities is an essential reference source that solves the
problem of the development of efficient models, methods, and tools
for parallel programming automation based on the algebra of
algorithms, term rewriting, and auto-tuning paradigms. The results
of this book will help to further develop and improve existing
research on design, synthesis, and optimization of sequential and
parallel algorithms and programs. Featuring research on topics such
as auto-tuning methods, graphics processing, and algorithmic
language, this book is ideally designed for mathematicians,
software engineers, data scientists, researchers, academicians, and
students seeking coverage on developing tools for automated design
and parallel programs.
Mastering Arduino is a practical, no-nonsense guide that will teach
you the electronics and programming skills that you need to create
advanced Arduino projects. Key Features Covers enough electronics
and code for users at any level Includes complete circuit diagrams
for all projects Final robot project combines knowledge from all
the chapters Book DescriptionMastering Arduino is an all-in-one
guide to getting the most out of your Arduino. This practical,
no-nonsense guide teaches you all of the electronics and
programming skills that you need to create advanced Arduino
projects. This book is packed full of real-world projects for you
to practice on, bringing all of the knowledge in the book together
and giving you the skills to build your own robot from the examples
in this book. The final two chapters discuss wireless technologies
and how they can be used in your projects. The book begins with the
basics of electronics, making sure that you understand components,
circuits, and prototyping before moving on. It then performs the
same function for code, getting you into the Arduino IDE and
showing you how to connect the Arduino to a computer and run simple
projects on your Arduino. Once the basics are out of the way, the
next 10 chapters of the book focus on small projects centered
around particular components, such as LCD displays, stepper motors,
or voice synthesizers. Each of these chapters will get you familiar
with the technology involved, how to build with it, how to program
it, and how it can be used in your own projects. What you will
learn Explains the basics of electronics and circuits along with
the Arduino IDE and basic C operations Use sensors to build a mini
weather station Control LEDs using code Power a robot arm using
stepper motors Remotely control your Arduino using RF, Bluetooth
LE, and Bluetooth Classic Make a sound tone generator with buttons
Who this book is forMastering Arduino is for anybody who wants to
experiment with an Arduino board and build simple projects. No
prior knowledge is required, as the fundamentals of electronics and
coding are covered in this book as well as advance projects.
