Claus Matzinger

Claus Matzinger

Claus Matzinger is a software engineer with a very diverse background. After working in a small company maintaining code for embedded devices, he joined a large corporation to work on legacy Smalltalk applications. This led to a great interest in programming languages early on, and Claus became the CTO for a health games start-up based on Scala technology. Since then, Claus' roles have shifted toward customer-facing roles in the IoT database-technology start-up crate.io and, most recently, Microsoft. There, he hosts a podcast, writes code together with customers, and blogs about the solutions arising from these engagements. For more than 5 years, Claus has implemented software to help customers innovate, achieve, and maintain success.

Beginning Java Data Structures and Algorithms

Beginning Java Data Structures and Algorithms

Learning about data structures and algorithms gives you a better insight on how to solve common programming problems. Most of the problems faced everyday by programmers have been solved, tried, and tested. By knowing how these solutions work, you can ensure that you choose the right tool when you face these problems. This book teaches you tools that you can use to build efficient applications. It starts with an introduction to algorithms and big O notation, later explains bubble, merge, quicksort, and other popular programming patterns. You'll also learn about data structures such as binary trees, hash tables, and graphs. The book progresses to advanced concepts, such as algorithm design paradigms and graph theory. By the end of the book, you will know how to correctly implement common algorithms and data structures within your applications.

Hands-On Concurrency with Rust

Hands-On Concurrency with Rust

Writing safe and correct parallel programs is tough. Reasoning about concurrent memory modification is tough; efficiently exploiting the modern computing environment (with its multi-layered caches and deep execution pipelines) is also tough. Most systems programming languages add a further complication: unsafe memory access. The burden on you, the programmer, lies across two domains: understanding the modern machine and understanding your language's pain-points. Rust, with its safe memory model and strong type system, eases this last burden without sacrificing performance. This book will teach you to reason about program performance on modern machines and build fast, memory-safe, and concurrent software in Rust.

Rust Essentials

Rust Essentials

Rust is the new, open source, fast and safe systems programming language for the 21st century, developed at Mozilla Research, and with a steadily growing community. It was created to solve the dilemma between high-level, slow code with minimal control over the system, and low-level, fast code with maximum system control. “Rust Essentials” will give you a head start to solve systems programming and application tasks with Rust. It is no longer necessary to learn C / C++ to develop resource intensive and low-level systems applications.
