Rust Programming By Example

Enter the world of Rust by building engaging, concurrent, reactive, and robust applications

By: Guillaume Gomez,Antoni Boucher

Discover the world of Rust programming through real-world examples Key Features Implement various features of Rust to build blazingly fast applications Learn to build GUI applications using Gtk-rs Explore the multi-threading aspect of Rust to tackle problems in concurrency and in distributed environments Book Description Rust is an open source, safe, concurrent, practical language created by Mozilla. It runs blazingly fast, prevents segfaults, and guarantees safety. This book gets you started with essential software development by guiding you through the different aspects of Rust programming. With this approach, you can bridge the gap between learning and implementing immediately. Beginning with an introduction to Rust, you’ll learn the basic aspects such as its syntax, data types, functions, generics, control flows, and more. After this, you’ll jump straight into building your first project, a Tetris game. Next you’ll build a graphical music player and work with fast, reliable networking software using Tokio, the scalable and productive asynchronous IO Rust library. Over the course of this book, you’ll explore various features of Rust Programming including its SDL features, event loop, File I/O, and the famous GTK+ widget toolkit. Through these projects, you’ll see how well Rust performs in terms of concurrency—including parallelism, reliability, improved performance, generics, macros, and thread safety. We’ll also cover some asynchronous and reactive programming aspects of Rust. By the end of the book, you’ll be comfortable building various real-world applications in Rust. What you will learn Compile and run the Rust projects using the Cargo-Rust Package manager Use Rust-SDL features such as the event loop, windows, infinite loops, pattern matching, and more Create a graphical interface using Gtk-rs and Rust-SDL Incorporate concurrency mechanism and multi-threading along with thread safety and locks Implement the FTP protocol using an Asynchronous I/O stack with the Tokio library Who this book is for This book is for software developers interested in system level and application programming who are looking for a quick entry into using Rust and understanding the core features of the Rust Programming. It’s assumed that you have a basic understanding of Java, C#, Ruby, Python, or JavaScript.

Respiratory Infections

By: Lionel Mandell,Mark Woodhead,Santiago Ewig,Antoni Torres

The aim of the volume is to provide an authoritative and international treatise bringing together current knowledge in the field of respiratory infection. The book will be organised by presentation rather than causative organism, a differentiating feature from the existing competition, and will be divided into four parts - 'General Issues', 'Community-acquired Infections', 'Nosocomial Infections' and 'Respiratory Infection in Immunocompromised Patients'. Each chapter will conclude with a summary highlighting practical 'take-home' messages regarding patient management for the reader. It will be highly illustrated, including colour plates where appropriate. The principal market will be pulmonologists with a specialist interest in this area and infectious disease specialists, but that the text will also be of interest to clinical researchers and a useful library reference.

Verbal Minds

Language and the Architecture of Cognition

By: Antoni Gomila

Language has most consistently been chosen as the key to understanding the human mind and to providing the building blocks necessary for achieving other specificities in human cognition: abstract/propositional thought, recursivity, decoupling of current situation, creativity, and conscious control. It is not so clear how language influences human cognition. This book discusses research regarding verbal ability and cognition.

Musical Mosaic

A Journey through Music: A Memoir

By: Eric Antoni

Follow a multi-faceted journey by an improviser and a musicosopher, Eric Antoni, from the cobbled streets of Paris to the Far East. Musical Mosaic lays coherent excursus of the author’s thought-provoking collection of anecdotes. With the absence of lengthy verbiage of a political-social-economic nature, the book is full of compassionate truthful descriptions of persons and experiences and written with total objectivity, brevity, originality, and musical creativity as inspired by the sense of tonality, throughout the history of music in Europe, since Monteverdi, and all over the world nowadays. As a text that is "musico-sophical" instead of being "musico-logical," it is inspired by the founder of phenomenology, Edmund Husserl (1859–1938), and his philosophical seizure of consciousness. It discusses the author’s journey in the world of music and describes "musical consciousness" and the ways in which it moves and works within us. The book presents to the readers the author’s account of the composers he met along the way (Slamet Sjukur, Giacinto Scelsi) and the composers who are currently active (Jean-François Laporte, Pierre Michaud, Myriam Boucher, George Benjamin), along with historical narratives that center around Monteverdi, Bach, Ravel, Debussy, and Bartók. It underlines the interrogations held by today’s musicians in light of yesterday’s mutations. With this book, the author would like to reach out to composers, performers, and music lovers and contribute towards opening them to the scope of experimentation in music and in the world of sound, all of which keep on becoming more expansive and more intensely conscious.

Detection of Optical Signals

By: Antoni Rogalski,Zbigniew Bielecki

Detection of Optical Signals provides a comprehensive overview of important technologies for photon detection, from the X-ray through ultraviolet, visible, infrared to far-infrared spectral regions. It uniquely combines perspectives from many disciplines, particularly within physics and electronics, which are necessary to have a complete understanding of optical receivers. This interdisciplinary textbook aims to: Guide readers into more detailed and technical treatments of readout optical signals Give a broad overview of optical signal detection including terahertz region and two-dimensional material Help readers further their studies by offering chapter-end problems and recommended reading. This is an invaluable resource for graduate students in physics and engineering, as well as a helpful refresher for those already working with aerospace sensors and systems, remote sensing, thermal imaging, military imaging, optical telecommunications, infrared spectroscopy, and light detection.

New Governance of Addictive Substances and Behaviours

By: Peter Anderson,Fleur Braddick,Patricia J. Conrod,Antoni Gual,Matilda Hellman,Silvia Matrai,David Miller,David Nutt,Jürgen Rehm,Jillian Reynolds,Tamyko Ysa

Addictions have increased markedly in contemporary societies over the past decades. As well as widely acknowledged issues surrounding illegal substance addictions, there are increasing numbers of problems related to behavioural addictions such as the use of legal substances such as antidepressants and amphetamines. These addictions are concerning for a range of public policy fields, not least, public health and social cohesion. As a result, cohesive governance of addictive substances and behaviours is paramount to future public policy. This book is based on the findings of a five year, multidisciplinary project (Addictions and Lifestyles in Contemporary Europe - Reframing Addictions Project) studying the pace and impact of addictions in Europe, and is the concluding volume in the Governance of Addictive Substances and Behaviours series. Authored by 11 leading figures in the fields of public health, psychology, sociology, psychiatry, addiction studies, epidemiology, and social and public policy, the book takes a truly comprehensive approach to the study of the current state of addiction governance in Europe and proposals for a future governance framework. No one country has yet got governance polices right. The project's outcome is a plan for the redesign of addictions governance, which includes amendments to key metrics used in research, promoting individual-level to society-level scope of understanding in policy approaches, and bringing the impact of dependency on societal well-being to the fore. New Governance of Addictive Substances and Behaviours is an unprecedented study, both in terms of international reach and scope of issues addressed. It will be a key resource for anyone with an interest in research-driven European policy change in public health and the field of addictive substances and behaviours.
