Serverless Computing Principles and Paradigms (Lecture Notes on Data Engineering and Communications Technologies)


Free Download Serverless Computing: Principles and Paradigms (Lecture Notes on Data Engineering and Communications Technologies) by Rajalakshmi Krishnamurthi, Adarsh Kumar, Sukhpal Singh Gill
English | May 12, 2023 | ISBN: 3031266323 | 328 pages | MOBI | 9.76 Mb
This book explores how advances in graphic processing units (GPUs), programmable logic devices (TPUs), and field-programmable gate arrays have altered the serverless computing landscape (FPGAs). Distributed system architectures and implementations have undergone significant changes due to the popularity of serverless computing. Making and releasing product applications, doing market research, and maintaining customer interactions might all benefit from the reduced infrastructure expenses made possible by serverless computing. This book is a great resource for teachers and students interested in learning more about serverless computing. Some of the main questions surrounding serverless technology, such as scalability and performance distribution, are answered. Concepts and fundamentals of computing performance such as cost-free operation, good time and resource management, fairness, and interoperability are discussed. Serverless is at the forefront of this shift, which has made data-intensive, distributed applications, and open-source platforms essential for any modern computer to function. Data-centric queuing, real-time logging and monitoring, querying, and alarms are all examples of serverless services.

Ahmed Sékou Touré Transforming Paradigms, Integrated Histories of Guinea


Free Download N’Daou, "Ahmed Sékou Touré: Transforming Paradigms, Integrated Histories of Guinea"
English | 2021 | ISBN: 1433183234 | PDF | pages: 343 | 13.6 mb
This book is different from existing works on Ahmed Sékou Touré and the Guinean Democratic Party (PDG) and their struggle for national independence. Its uniqueness stems from the fact that all the chapters focus on the Guinean traditions of struggle over memories between the elites and the subordinates, highlighting the independent initiatives of the latter. Other books on Ahmed Sékou Touré are primarily based on their writers’ political or social history perspectives. This is the first study that equally integrates political and social history to address the theoretical and methodological issues of identity and construction of identity as necessary for understanding the roles of the elites and the subordinates in their struggles for access to power and resources in colonial and postcolonial Guinea. In this book, Saidou Mohamed N’Daou provides equal space for the initiatives and interests of the elites and the subordinates. Ahmed Sékou Touré used the ideology of the PDG as a mirror reflection of the social changes that he and his party intended to create. N’Daou argues that one must displace the ideology of the PDG from the center to understand Ahmed Sékou Touré’s personality, his role in Guinea’s independence and his leadership of the PDG as well as expand the analytical space to allow other voices to be heard. N’Daou reaches this goal by discovering Ahmed Sékou Touré’s first order of knowledge, another unique feature of this book.

School Bullying and Marginalisation Harmonising Paradigms


Free Download Rosalyn H. Shute, "School Bullying and Marginalisation: Harmonising Paradigms"
English | ISBN: 9811676755 | 2021 | 326 pages | PDF | 7 MB
This book addresses, and seeks to harmonise, different paradigms for understanding school bullying. It sets out to examine two paradigms for conceptualising bullying, and the worldviews that underpin them. It uses a complex systems perspective to bring the two paradigms together in a holistic fashion. By doing so, it creates an integrated framework for conceptualising the many individual, relational and societal factors that are in dynamic interaction and play a part in promoting or reducing school bullying.

The Classroom as Privileged Space Psychoanalytic Paradigms for Social Justice in Pedagogy


Free Download Tapo Chimbganda, "The Classroom as Privileged Space: Psychoanalytic Paradigms for Social Justice in Pedagogy "
English | ISBN: 1498511953 | 2017 | 204 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
The Classroom as Privileged Space: Psychoanalytic Paradigms for Social Justice in Pedagogy examines the psychic and emotional effects of the dehumanization of children based on social discrimination and difference within schooling. Used as a tool to critique the current state of social justice within education, psychoanalysis allows for a focus on the individual within the social context of schooling. It highlights the emotional structures that can develop in children and learners through the oft repeated trauma of racism and homophobia. This book draws from the articulated experiences of three writers and urges the reader to approach the work of the writers and this book as a witness and as one who is enabled to respond through acquiring knowledge and acting on it. Drawing from scholars in psychoanalysis, sociology, and education, Tapo Chimbganda posits that perhaps the "safe space" education has been touting is not what is necessary to cultivate diversity, equity, and inclusion in classrooms. Rather, privilege, re-imagined through psychoanalytic technique, can make possible the elements of social justice that have long frustrated, silenced, and escaped the classroom.
