Design, Build, and Operate Autonomous AI Systems for Modern Cyber DefenseCybersecurity is evolving beyond traditional automation toward intelligent systems capable of continuously analyzing security telemetry, investigating threats, coordinating specialized tools, and executing controlled defensive actions. This shift introduces new engineering challenges involving agent architecture, decision-making, authorization, operational reliability, and the verification of security-critical actions.

A practical guide to operating systems, systems programming, memory, concurrency, filesystems, and low-level system behavior.

React Native got you far. But when performance, maintainability and long-term control start to matter, native development deserves another look. This book explores Swift, SwiftUI, Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, helping you understand when going native makes sense and how to make the move without losing what already works.

Build real-time data systems that can keep up with the demands of production. Streaming at Scale takes you under the hood of Apache Flink, covering state, event time, exactly-once processing, performance, Kubernetes and more. With runnable examples and practical lessons, it shows how to build systems that are fast, reliable and ready to scale.

Every sentence an AI writes can carry a hidden signature, and the world's biggest models are already signing their output. AI Watermarking shows you exactly how it works, using a four-word vocabulary and arithmetic you can check with a pocket calculator. By the end you will know what a watermark can prove, what destroys it in seconds, and why short text can never be tested.

A comprehensive technical reference on advanced aerospace systems, stealth engineering, hypersonics, propulsion, avionics, sensor fusion, space systems, and next-generation aircraft architectures.Modern aerospace engineering brings together disciplines that once operated largely independently. Aerodynamics, electromagnetics, propulsion, materials science, avionics, autonomy, and systems engineering now interact within increasingly complex air and space platforms. Understanding these systems requires more than knowledge of individual components; it requires an appreciation of how their physical principles, computational models, and engineering constraints influence the architecture as a whole. Advanced Aerospace Engineering: Lockheed & Partners is a 52-chapter technical compendium exploring the engineering principles behind advanced aerospace and defense systems. Drawing on publicly documented technologies and established engineering methods, it examines the relationship between theoretical foundations, computational analysis, subsystem design, and system-level integration.

A practical, operations-focused handbook for engineers working with HPC and AI infrastructure. Learn how to troubleshoot Linux, InfiniBand, NVIDIA GPUs, Slurm, UFM, NCCL, storage, and cluster infrastructure using a structured, evidence-driven approach.

Master spatial computing, advanced algorithms, and mathematical modeling through practical code and theory.

What if the Bhagavad Gita began with a code review? A Merge Request adds two harmless getters to an immutable Money Value Object. The tests pass. The pipeline is green. Arjuna still cannot approve it. Standing between the DDD Alliance and the Just Ship It Legion, he turns to Krishna for guidance on domain truth, technical karma, architectural duty, knowledge crunching, entropy—and the dangerous illusion that a working implementation must also be a truthful model. The Logs of the Bhagavad Gita is an affectionate, technically serious and occasionally irresponsible encounter between ancient philosophy and modern software development. No framework will attain enlightenment. Your Aggregate Root might.

What really makes a compression system fast, efficient and effective? Using bzip3 as a practical case study, this book breaks down the building blocks behind modern compression, from data transforms and match finding to entropy coding and parallel processing. Learn how to design, implement and tune compression systems for real-world performance.

Mastering Nim Programming: Build High-Performance Systems, Games, and Web Apps with Python-like Syntax and C-level SpeedYou’ve probably noticed that most programming books are either too theoretical or filled with outdated examples. When I first started learning Nim, I faced the same frustration. That’s exactly why I wrote this book—not just to teach syntax, but to turn you into a production-ready Nim developer.

Python is entering a new performance era. Explore free-threaded execution, Rust extensions and modern tools for building faster, more scalable Python systems. Learn how CPython is changing, when Rust makes sense and how to turn these ideas into production-ready software.

Explore fundamental concepts in modern robotics, kinematics, and control systems with Robotics and Automation: Notes in Robotics and Automation.

Read OTLP from raw bytes to spans: Protobuf wire format, gRPC frames, HTTP payloads, PCAPs, failure modes, and telemetry cost—explained for engineers who need to debug the protocol, not merely configure it.

Learn Argo Rollouts through hands-on Kubernetes labs. Build canary and blue-green deployments, control traffic with Istio, validate releases with Prometheus, run Experiments, automate promotion and rollback, and manage progressive delivery with Argo CD and GitOps.
