Download or read book Practical Formal Software Engineering written by Bruce Mills and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-19 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based around a theme of the construction of a game engine, this textbook is for final year undergraduate and graduate students, emphasising formal methods in writing robust code quickly. This book takes an unusual, engineering-inspired approach to illuminate the creation and verification of large software systems . Where other textbooks discuss business practices through generic project management techniques or detailed rigid logic systems, this book examines the interaction between code in a physical machine and the logic applied in creating the software. These elements create an informal and rigorous study of logic, algebra, and geometry through software. Assuming prior experience with C, C++, or Java programming languages, chapters introduce UML, OCL, and Z from scratch. Extensive worked examples motivate readers to learn the languages through the technical side of software science.

Download or read book Gen Z Developers written by Dinis Cruz and published by . This book was released on 2018-09-30 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Key concepts and ideas for the next generation of developers. I'm focusing on Generation Z because I believe they've missed the historical understanding of a number of key technology revolutions in order to be competitive in the market place. At the current pace of technological advancement, so much history can be taken for granted. Without a full understanding of the past, we only learn from shadows and curated versions of reality. This is an age when information and knowledge is a click or google search away. Yet in conversation after conversation with Generation Z teenagers, I've found - not unsurprisingly - that they have a very superficial understanding of the history that underpins the technologies they use, how and why they came to be in the first place and the original problems the technology tried to solve. My hope with this book is to break through these gaps and provide context and references and inform better decisions."Amazing read for anyone new to, or wanting to get into programming. Brilliant background primer, not just for Gen Z" - Kevin Fielder"This book teaches young developers how to become a developer. I wish I had this type of book when I started my career" - Matt Parsons

This book is designed to give an overview of the SR&ED Program of the Canadian Tax Credits & Refunds System to the busy executive and the business owner/manager. In order to keep the Canadian businesses competitive in the present global market, the Canadian government offers one of the most generous incentives to Canadian businesses to encourage them to engage in scientific research and experimental development (SR&ED). It is also available to foreign corporations conducting SR&ED in Canada. It is estimated that only a very small fraction of those eligible actually apply for this credit. It is also estimated that in the last fiscal year tax credits running into billions of dollars were approved, including refunds to eligible businesses. There is no upper limit set by the Government as to the amount of tax credits it is willing to give to eligible businesses with regard to SR&ED. This information might make it worthwhile for you to take the time to read this book because it talks about millions of dollars in potential tax benefits and possibly cash refunds to you and to your business over the years and in some cases even in just one year!
