OpenSSL Cookbook: A Guide to the Most Frequently Used OpenSSL Features and Commands
This book covers two ways in which OpenSSL can be used. OpenSSL will help users who need to perform routine tasks of key and certificate generation, as well as configurations. Secondly, testing with OpenSSL which focuses on server security testing.
On Lisp
On Lisp is a comprehensive study of advanced Lisp techniques, with bottom-up programming as the unifying theme. It gives the first complete description of macros and macro applications. The book also covers important subjects related to bottom-up programming, including functional programming, rapid prototyping, interactive development, and embedded languages.
The Scientist and Engineer’s Guide to Digital Signal Processing
Digital Signal Processing is the science of using computers to understand these types of data. This includes a wide variety of goals: filtering, speech recognition, image enhancement, data compression, neural networks, and much more. DSP is one of the most powerful technologies that will shape science and engineering in the twenty-first century.
Principles of Digital Image Synthesis
The big idea in this book is to lay out the rules that tell a computer how to take 3D shapes and lights and create a picture-one that would pass for a photograph of that scene if it existed. So our driving problem is the simulation of Nature’s illumination of a scene, the capturing of that illumination on film, and its presentation to an observer.
Automate the Boring Stuff with Python
In Automate the Boring Stuff with Python, you’ll learn how to use Python to write programs that do in minutes what would take you hours to do by hand-no prior programming experience required.
