Full-Stack Development from the Ground Up: Principles, Practices, and Technologies addresses the growing need for a comprehensive upper-division computer science textbook that provides in-depth treatment of full-stack web development using the modern web development technologies that students are likely to encounter in industry. Professional full-stack web developers who are capable of developing both the front-end user interfaces and back-end databases and services for dynamic websites are in high demand. The book begins by laying a foundation in HTML, CSS and JavaScript—the building blocks of client-side web development.It then explores one particular web development stack in detail: MERN, which stands for MongoDB, Express.js, React.js and Node.js. Together, these four technologies provide powerful support for full-stack web development in a single programming language—JavaScript. The crucial final step in the web development process is deploying apps to a server, so users can interact with them. This book simplifies deployment by focusing on just one web deployment environment: Amazon Web Services (AWS), and only those AWS tools that are absolutely necessary to deploy MERN applications.

Embedded Systems: ARM Programming and Optimization, Second Edition combines an exploration of the ARM architecture with an examination of the facilities offered by the Linux operating system to explain how various features of program design can influence processor performance. The book demonstrates methods by which a programmer can optimize program code in a way that does not impact its behavior but instead improves its performance. Several applications, including image transformations, fractal generation, image convolution, computer vision tasks, and now machine learning are used to describe and demonstrate these methods. From this, the reader will gain insight into computer architecture and application design, as well as practical knowledge in embedded software design for modern embedded systems. The second edition has been expanded to include more topics of interest to upper level undergraduate courses in embedded systems.

Programming Massively Parallel Processors: A Hands-on Approach shows both students and professionals alike the basic concepts of parallel programming and GPU architecture. Concise, intuitive, and practical, it is based on years of road-testing in the authors' own parallel computing courses. Various techniques for constructing and optimizing parallel programs are explored in detail, while case studies demonstrate the development process, which begins with computational thinking and ends with effective and efficient parallel programs. The new edition includes updated coverage of CUDA, including the newer libraries such as CuDNN. New chapters on frequently used parallel patterns have been added, and case studies have been updated to reflect current industry practices.

Topological UML Modeling: An Improved Approach for Domain Modeling and Software Development presents a specification for Topological UML® that combines the formalism of the Topological Functioning Model (TFM) mathematical topology with a specified software analysis and design method. The analysis of problem domain and design of desired solutions within software development processes has a major impact on the achieved result – developed software. While there are many tools and different techniques to create detailed specifications of the solution, the proper analysis of problem domain functioning is ignored or covered insufficiently. The design of object-oriented software has been led for many years by the Unified Modeling Language (UML®), an approved industry standard modeling notation for visualizing, specifying, constructing, and documenting the artifacts of a software-intensive system, and this comprehensive book shines new light on the many advances in the field.
