Topics in this book cover questions such as What does having a trustworthy CPS actually mean for something as pervasive as a global-scale CPS? How does CPS trustworthiness map onto existing knowledge, and where do we need to know more? How can we mathematically prove timeliness, correctness, and other essential properties for systems that may be adaptive and even self-healing?
How can we better represent the physical reality underlying real-world numeric quantities in the computing system? How can we establish, reason about, and ensure trust between CPS components that are designed, installed, maintained, and operated by different organizations, and which may never have really been intended to work together?
Featuring contributions from leading international experts, the book contains sixteen self-contained chapters that analyze the challenges in developing trustworthy CPS, and identify important issues in developing engineering methods for CPS. The book addresses various issues contributing to trustworthiness complemented by contributions on TCSP roadmapping, taxonomy, and standardization, as well as experience in deploying advanced system engineering methods in industry.
Specific approaches to ensuring trustworthiness, namely, proof and refinement, are covered, as well as engineering methods for dealing with hybrid aspects. Learn how to design complex, correct programs and fix problems before writing a single line of code. Along the way you will discover how to organize your blueprints and how to specify distributed systems and eventual consistency.
Photographs and stories of people who have coped with and overcome depression, anxiety, trauma, and other challenges. It a gives a glimpse into how students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology—one of the most competitive and elite universities in the world—cope, overcome, and find meaning in their lives. And yet these people are often invisible, hidden, unacknowledged.
At once a photo essay and a compendium of life stories, Portraits of Resilience brings us face to face with twenty-two extraordinary individuals, celebrating the wisdom they have gained on the frontline of a contemporary battle. We hear from a young man who was struck with a debilitating sadness just when his life seemed to have turned around, and a medical student whose self-image was transformed by an antidepressant. We meet a physicist whose troubles led him to reassess the role human connection played in his life, an overachiever who developed one of her closest friendships in a mental hospital, and administrative assistant who grew up with an abusive parent but learned to heal and create a new life for herself.
No one is immune to depression or anxiety; all of these narrators achieved success as students, faculty, or staff in the demanding world of MIT. The pressures of a competitive and high-pressure environment will be familiar to many. And the mysterious and overwhelming grip of depression will be recognized by those who have suffered from it. But the search for purpose and meaning that pervades these stories is relevant to everyone.
These wise people give us not only solace and reassurance as we face our own challenges, but also the inspiration that challenges can be overcome—and that happiness, while elusive, can eventually be found. This book tells stories of widespread problems with digital healthcare.
The stories inspire and challenge anyone who wants to make hospitals and healthcare better. The stories and their resolutions will empower patients, clinical staff and digital developers to help transform digital healthcare to make it safer and more effective. The 10 revised full papers and 4 short papers presented together with two tutorial descriptions were carefully reviewed and selected from 27 submissions. The papers cover topics in the following four research areas: test generation, bridging semantic gaps, integrated development processes and bounded verification.
The 17 full and 15 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 61 submissions. A completely revised edition, offering new design recipes for interactive programs and support for images as plain values, testing, event-driven programming, and even distributed programming.
This introduction to programming places computer science at the core of a liberal arts education. Unlike other introductory books, it focuses on the program design process, presenting program design guidelines that show the reader how to analyze a problem statement, how to formulate concise goals, how to make up examples, how to develop an outline of the solution, how to finish the program, and how to test it.
Because learning to design programs is about the study of principles and the acquisition of transferable skills, the text does not use an off-the-shelf industrial language but presents a tailor-made teaching language.
For the same reason, it offers DrRacket, a programming environment for novices that supports playful, feedback-oriented learning. We constantly test and work to improve our eTextbook compatibility on as many devices as possible. We recommend that you upgrade your browser to the latest version and we encourage you to test and preview our eTextbook on your device before purchasing.
Please ensure that your code is being entered correctly. A common issue is the confusion of certain characters. Our access codes do not contain lowercase "l's" leopard or the number "1"; in these cases, please use a capital "I" Iowa. Another reason may be that you have a used textbook and the code is no longer valid.
If none of these examples represent you, please submit a ticket with a picture of your access code and we will further investigate the matter. The most common problem we see pertains to the following message: Street Address does not match N. Postal Code does not match N. This indicates that information on file with an issuing credit card company does not match what is entered.
We typically see this occur with individuals who have moved recently or individuals using a school address instead of a home address.
Our advice is to contact your financial institution and verify the correct billing information. You may want to ask about any failed transactions and inquire as to the status of those funds. The 28 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 73 submissions.
The papers cover a wide range of topics in the area of formal methods and software. Now this classic book has been fully updated and revised with leading-edge practices—and hundreds of new code samples—illustrating the art. This book provides a guide to the writing of unambiguous specifications of complex computer systems.
It explains how to describe, with mathematical precision, the behavior properties of a system. Safety properties are stressed, but topics like liveliness, fairness, and real time are also covered. The book also supplies a reference. The 22 full papers and 1 short paper presented in this volume were carefully reviewed. The 13 full papers presented together with 3 invited talks and 19 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 81 submissions.
The ABZ conference. From the Foreword "Getting CPS dependability right is essential to forming a solid foundation for a world that increasingly depends on such systems. Those who have to learn and use the modern generation of formal methods—streamlined, lightweight, and highly automated—will welcome the appearance of the second edition of Daniel Jackson's book on the Alloy language and its analysor.
Jackson's writing, like his language design, is full of good taste, and he makes an intelligent and compelling argument for the construction of automated software abstractions as the central activity in software development. Every serious software engineer should read this book. In an area plagued by unnecessary complexity, Alloy shows there is still room for economy and elegance in software design.
Readers of this book will enjoy a rare opportunity to learn how to write less in order to say more, without ambiguity. In short, to learn how to be productive. Relational modeling is a powerful but subtle craft.
