CCDE Design Labs – Volume I challenges you with realistic, scenario-driven network design problems inspired by the complexity and decision-making expected at the CCDE level.Work through evolving business requirements, technical constraints, architecture trade-offs, exhibits, and unexpected changes then compare your decisions against detailed answers and design rationale.Built for experienced network engineers and architects who want to sharpen their design judgment, challenge their assumptions, and prepare for advanced real-world network design.

A clear, illustrated guide to large language models, covering key concepts and practical applications. Ideal for projects, interviews, or personal learning.

Not just for mathematicians and detectives! Learn the basics of logic and its many applications, including advanced testing, constraint solving, function composition, and code proofs. Over 50 exercises and 20 sample programs are included. No prior math background required!

A complete foundation for Statistics, also serving as a foundation for Data Science. Leanpub revenue supports OpenIntro (US-based nonprofit) so we can provide free desk copies to teachers interested in using OpenIntro Statistics in the classroom and expand the project to support free textbooks in other subjects.

We just accept that software is inherently imperfect, that all software must contain bugs, and we design our development processes around that. But what if it were possible to write correct software? What if we could consistently develop clean, maintainable software that works perfectly, all the time? And what if it were cheaper, faster and easier to write correct code than to write the buggy variety? What then? Flawless software, delivered faster.

All new language and library features of C++23 (for those who know C++20) The book presents all new language and library features of C++23.

Software development is changing fast, and Claude Code is at the center of that shift. Learn how to work effectively with AI agents to write code, automate workflows, and build larger projects with confidence. From setup and prompt design to real-world engineering practices, this book provides a practical guide to modern software development in 2026.

With more than 1200 microcontrollers, STM32 is probably the most complete ARM Cortex-M platform on the market. This book aims to be the most complete guide around introducing the reader to this exciting MCU portfolio from ST Microelectronics and its official CubeHAL and STM32CubeIDE development environment.

The book covers every topic in the latest CISSP exam syllabus, organized in a format that makes it easy to drill down on specific exam domains and concepts at-a-glance, making it an essential exam resource for anyone who aims to prepare for the exam without wasting time or money.

You know C++ syntax. Now learn how to structure, build, test, and maintain a real C++ application.

Residuality Theory is a new way to think about the design of software systems that explains why we experience design the way we do, why certain things seem to work only sporadically, and why certain architects get it right so often regardless of which tools they use. A new, scientific approach is defined that fuses Software Engineering, Complexity Science, and Philosophy to produce an entirely new way to think about how to design software. The result is a theoretical base that allows architecture to finally become its own discipline.

You know how to build frontend applications. But can you explain how you would design one when the requirements are vague, the constraints keep changing, and you only have 45 minutes?Frontend System Design Interviews gives you a practical framework for structuring that conversation, making trade-offs, and going deep on the problems that actually change the architecture.

800 pages. 11 chapters. The full forecasting stack in Python — from ARIMA to foundation models — with production-grade code and proper evaluation. No hype.

This book covers every topic in the latest CISM exam syllabus, approaching topics from the ISACA perspective.
