For many applications, a randomized algorithm is either the simplest or the fastest algorithm available, and sometimes both. This book introduces the basic concepts in the design and analysis of randomized algorithms. The first part of the text presents basic tools such as probability theory and probabilistic analysis that are frequently used in algorithmic applications. Algorithmic examples are also given to illustrate the use of each tool in a concrete setting. In the second part of the book, each chapter focuses on an important area to which randomized algorithms can be applied, providing a comprehensive and representative selection of the algorithms that might be used in each of these areas. Although written primarily as a text for advanced undergraduates and graduate students, this book should also prove invaluable as a reference for professionals and researchers.

Beautiful Architecture answers this question through a collection of intriguing essays from more than a dozen of today's leading software designers and architects. In each essay, contributors present a notable software architecture, and analyze what makes it innovative and ideal for its purpose. Some of the engineers in this book reveal how they developed a specific project, including decisions they faced and tradeoffs they made. Others take a step back to investigate how certain architectural aspects have influenced computing as a whole. With this book, you'll discover: * How Facebook's architecture is the basis for a data-centric application ecosystem * The effect of Xen's well-designed architecture on the way operating systems evolve * How community processes within the KDE project help software architectures evolve from rough sketches to beautiful systems * How creeping featurism has helped GNU Emacs gain unanticipated functionality * The magic behind the Jikes RVM self-optimizable, self-hosting runtime * Design choices and building blocks that made Tandem the choice platform in high-availability environments for over two decades * Differences and similarities between object-oriented and functional architectural views * How architectures can affect the software's evolution and the developers' engagement Go behind the scenes to learn what it takes to design elegant software architecture, and how it can shape the way you approach your own projects, with Beautiful Architecture.

This book is about learning to program in Lisp. Although widely known as the principal language of artificial intelligence research—one of the most advanced areas of computer science—Lisp is an excellent language for beginners. It is increasingly the language of choice in introductory programming courses due to its friendly, interactive environment, rich data structures, and powerful software tools that even a novice can master in short order. When I wrote the book I had three types of reader in mind. I would like to address each in turn. · Students taking their first programming course. The student could be from any discipline, from computer science to the humanities. For you, let me stress the word gentle in the title. I assume no prior mathematical background beyond arithmetic. Even if you don’t like math, you may find you enjoy computer programming. I’ve avoided technical jargon, and there are lots of examples. Also you will find plenty of exercises interspersed with the text, and the answers to all of them are included in Appendix C. · Psychologists, linguists, computer scientists, and other persons interested in Artificial Intelligence. As you begin your inquiry into AI, you will see that almost all research in this field is carried out in Lisp. Most Lisp texts are written exclusively for computer science majors, but I have gone to great effort to make this book accessible to everyone. It can be your doorway to the technical literature of AI, as well as a quick introduction to its central tool. · Computer hobbyists. Prior to about 1984, the Lisps available on personal computers weren’t very good due to the small memories of the early machines. Today’s personal computers often come with several megabytes of RAM and a hard disk as standard equipment. They run full implementations of the Common Lisp standard, and provide the same high-quality tools as the Lisps in university and industrial research labs. The ‘‘Lisp Toolkit’’ sections of this book will introduce you to the advanced features of the Common Lisp programming environment that have made the language such a productive tool for rapid prototyping and AI programming. This current volume of the ‘‘gentle introduction’’ uses Common Lisp throughout. Lisp has been changing continuously since its invention 30 years ago. In the past, not only were the Lisp dialects on different machines incompatible, but programs written in one dialect would often no longer run in that same dialect a few years later, because the language had evolved out from under them. Rapid, unconstrained evolution was beneficial in the early days, but demand for a standard eventually grew, so Common Lisp was created. At present, Common Lisp is the de facto standard supported by all major computer manufacturers. It is currently undergoing refinement into an official standard. But Lisp will continue to evolve nonetheless, and the standard will be updated periodically to reflect new contributions people have made to the language. Perhaps one of those contributors will be you.
