Many data mining techniques exist, including statistics, neighborhoods and clustering, trees, neural networks, and rules. Programming languages and software packa... 1     Arduino and Kinect projects: design, build, blow their minds Melgar E., Diez C., Apress, Berkeley, CA, 2012. 416 pp.  Type: Book (978-1-430241-67-6) The first three chapters of this book introduce Arduino, Kinect, and Processing. It is not included in the title, but Processing has a prominent role in this book. The Arduino integrated development environment (IDE) is based on Proces... 2     Tool and object: a history and philosophy of category theory (Science Networks/Historical Studies Series) Krömer R., Birkhäuser Basel, 2007. 367 pp.  Type: Book (9783764375232) Category theory (CT) is a theory of structures. Its ideas “have been employed for thousands of years, but they first appeared only as dimly perceived analogies between subjects” [1]. CT is a branch of mathematics th... 3      Compilers: principles, techniques, and tools (2nd ed.) Aho A., Lam M., Sethi R., Ullman J., Addison-Wesley Longman Publishing Co, Inc., Boston, MA, 2006. 1000 pp.  Type: Book (9780321486813) The “dragon book” is one of those rare computer science books that withstands the test of time. It has been used for almost 20 years in universities all around the world. However, even though the analysis techniques... 4     Data-intensive science Critchlow T., van Dam K., Chapman & Hall/CRC, Boca Raton, FL, 2013. 446 pp.  Type: Book (978-1-439881-39-2) Science has changed. The shift from craving for datasets to feeling overwhelmed by the amount of available data is a modern phenomenon with dramatic consequences for scientific, political, and economic developments. The issue demands a... 5     Graph theory and its applications (3rd ed.) Gross J., Yellen J., Anderson M., Chapman&Hall/CRC, Boca Raton, FL, 2018. 591 pp.  Type: Book (978-1-482249-48-4) Graph theory is one of the most fertile and popular domains in current mathematics research. This is mainly because graphs can be used as coherent models for many problems across almost all disciplines. This book can be viewed as effec... 6     Explorations in computing: an introduction to computer science and Python programming Conery J., Chapman & Hall/CRC, Boca Raton, FL, 2015. 439 pp.  Type: Book (978-1-466572-44-7) Despite its subtitle, it would be wrong to consider Explorations in computing a textbook on Python. Instead, this extraordinary textbook on computer science (CS) provides an excellent introduction to a wide range of topics, such... 7     Analytical methods for network congestion control Low S., Morgan & Claypool Publishers, San Rafael, CA, 2017. 214 pp.  Type: Book (978-1-627057-33-2) This is one of the most comprehensive books I have read recently, and it is a must-read for a serious network designer. This book uses a step-by-step approach to build a mathematical model to understand, design, and fix network congest... 8     The coder’s path to wealth and independence Beckner M., Apress, Berkeley, CA, 2014. 248 pp.  Type: Book (978-1-484204-22-1) I was predisposed to hate this book. The title sounds like a cable infomercial, one of those change-your-life sales pitches that snags you in a moment of late-night weakness, only to reveal itself as an embarrassing credit card charge ... 9      What are the elements of software design Daniel Jackson. YouTube, 01:09:44, published on Mar 4, 2016, nueecs, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIH0h2pPr9A. Type: Video This is my second attempt to formally review a video for Computing Reviews. In the first attempt, the quality of production was so totally awful (with no relation to the lecturer) that any attempt to honestly review it was simpl... 10         Display 510152550100 per page
