Software Engineering for Absolute Beginners: Your Guide to Creating Software Products by Nico Loubser
English | January 31, 2021 | ISBN: 1484266218 | 360 pages | MOBI | 1.77 Mb
Start programming from scratch, no experience required. This beginners' guide to software engineering starts with a discussion of the different editors used to create software and covers setting up a Docker environment. Next, you will learn about repositories and version control along with its uses. Now that you are ready to program, you'll go through the basics of Python, the ideal language to learn as a novice software engineer. Many modern applications need to talk to a database of some kind, so you will explore how to create and connect to a database and how to design one for your app. Additionally you will discover how to use Python's Flask microframework and how to efficiently test your code. Finally, the book explains best practices in coding, design, deployment, and security.

Social Media, Culture and Politics in Asia (Frontiers in Political Communication) By Lars Willnat (editor), Annette Aw (editor)
2014 | 350 Pages | ISBN: 1433118785 | PDF | 6 MB
The Internet's explosive growth over the past decade is nowhere more visible than in Asia. Fueled by an expanding middle class, thousands of people connect to the Internet for the first time each day to explore and discuss issues that are relevant to them and their lives. This book provides an in-depth look at the impact of social media on political engagement among young citizens in this rapidly changing region of the world. Leading media scholars from nine Asian nations focus on three main questions: How frequently do Asians use social media to access and discuss political information? Does the use of social media increase political participation? What political, social and cultural factors influence the impact of social media on political engagement in each nation? To answer these questions, contributors first analyze the current state of social media in their nations and then present the findings of a cross-national survey on social media use that was conducted with over 3,500 Asian respondents. By employing a comparative approach, they analyze how social media function and interact with the cultural and political systems in each country - and how they might affect political engagement among individual citizens.

Smart Design, Science & Technology
English | 2021 | ISBN: 103201993X | 125 Pages | PDF (True) | 6 MB
Smart Design, Science & Technology represents the proceedings of the IEEE 6th International Conference on Applied System Innovation (ICASI 2020),which was held in Taitung, Taiwan November 5-8, 2020.The conference received more than 200 submitted papers from at least 11 different countries, whereby roughly one third of these papers was selected by the committees and invited to present at ICASI 2020. This book aims to provide an integrated communication platform for researchers from a wide range of disciplines including information technology, communication science, applied mathematics, computer science, advanced material science, and engineering. Only high quality papers were allowed to publish in the volume. Hopefully, interdisciplinary collaborations between science and engineering technologists in academia and industry will be enhanced via this unique international network.

Sleeping Beauties in Victorian Britain: Cultural, Literary and Artistic Explorations of a Myth (Cultural Interactions: Studies in the Relationship between the Arts) By Beatrice Laurent (editor)
2014 | 244 Pages | ISBN: 303431745X | PDF | 2 MB
Artists, scientists and the wider public of the Victorian era all seem to have shared a common interest in the myth of the Briar Rose and its contemporary implications, from the Pre-Raphaelites and late Victorian aesthetes to the fascinated crowds who visited Ellen Sadler, the real-life 'Sleeping Maid' who is reported to have slept from 1871 to 1880. The figure of the beautiful reclining female sleeper is a recurring theme in the Victorian imagination, invoking visual, literary and erotic connotations that contribute to a complex range of readings involving aesthetics, gender definitions and contemporary medical opinion. This book compiles and examines a corpus of Sleeping Beauties drawn from Victorian medical reports, literature and the arts and explores the significance of the enduring revival of the myth.

Skill Formation Regimes in South Asia: A Comparative Study on the Path-Dependent Development of Technical and Vocational Education and Training for ... Series / Bibliothèque d'Études Comparatives) By Markus Maurer
2011 | 449 Pages | ISBN: 3631600208 | PDF | 4 MB
In the face of accelerated economic globalisation, many of the industries in economically less developed countries have become more technology-intensive. Skill formation processes, both inside and outside firms, are therefore changing. This study scrutinises such transformations by comparing - from the perspective of historical institutionalism - the skill formation regimes of the garment industries in Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. It sheds light on the differences between the trajectories of the in-firm skill formation regimes of the two countries, and reveals the important part that varying paths of educational development in both countries have played in shaping these trajectories. At the same time, the study shows how, in both countries, state-led skill formation regimes have been transformed not only by market forces and the growing importance of corporate business interests, but also by the social demand for educational credentials.

Simplicial and Dendroidal Homotopy Theory
English | 2022 | ISBN: 3031104463 | 622 Pages | PDF (True) | 6 MB
This open access book offers a self-contained introduction to the homotopy theory of simplicial and dendroidal sets and spaces. These are essential for the study of categories, operads, and algebraic structure up to coherent homotopy. The dendroidal theory combines the combinatorics of trees with the theory of Quillen model categories. Dendroidal sets are a natural generalization of simplicial sets from the point of view of operads. In this book, the simplicial approach to higher category theory is generalized to a dendroidal approach to higher operad theory. This dendroidal theory of higher operads is carefully developed in this book. The book also provides an original account of the more established simplicial approach to infinity-categories, which is developed in parallel to the dendroidal theory to emphasize the similarities and differences. Simplicial and Dendroidal Homotopy Theory is a complete introduction, carefully written with the beginning researcher in mind and ideally suited for seminars and courses. It can also be used as a standalone introduction to simplicial homotopy theory and to the theory of infinity-categories, or a standalone introduction to the theory of Quillen model categories and Bousfield localization.
