Java Memory Management - A comprehensive guide to garbage collection and JVM tuning

Dr. Seán Kennedy, Maaike van Putten

Synopsis

Understanding how Java organizes memory is important for every Java professional, but this particular topic is a common knowledge gap for many software professionals. Having in-depth knowledge of memory functioning and management is incredibly useful in writing and analyzing code, as well as debugging memory problems. In fact, it can be just the knowledge you need to level up your skills and career.
In this book, you’ll start by working through the basics of Java memory. After that, you’ll dive into the different segments individually. You’ll explore the stack, the heap, and the Metaspace. Next, you’ll be ready to delve into JVM standard garbage collectors. The book will also show you how to tune, monitor and profile JVM memory management. Later chapters will guide you on how to avoid and spot memory leaks.
By the end of this book, you’ll have understood how Java manages memory and how to customize it for the benefit of your applications.

Artificial Intelligence -...

Bright Mills

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a transformative field of computer science dedicated to building systems that can perform tasks typically requiring human intelligence. These tasks include learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, language understanding, and decision-making. This comprehensive guide explores the foundational principles of AI, its historical evolution, methodologies, real-world applications, ethical challenges, and the future it holds. The document begins by defining AI, its goals, and its place in the broader field of computer science. It discusses the major branches, such as machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, robotics, and expert systems. Following that, the paper delves into the historical timeline of AI from early philosophical concepts to the rise of neural networks and deep learning in the 21st century. The core methodologies are explored in-depth, including supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning, as well as symbolic AI, heuristic approaches, and hybrid models. It further illustrates how AI is integrated across industries like healthcare, finance, manufacturing, education, transportation, and defense. The guide also addresses the critical ethical and societal questions surrounding AI: data privacy, algorithmic bias, surveillance, job displacement, and the need for regulation and responsible AI development.
Finally, it speculates on the future trajectory of AI, including artificial general intelligence (AGI), quantum AI, and human-AI symbiosis. It highlights both the immense opportunities AI offers and the serious challenges it poses.
This 10,000-word exposition aims to serve students, researchers, policymakers, and enthusiasts by offering a detailed, accessible, and balanced perspective on one of the most powerful technologies of the 21st century.

Into the Great Wide Ocean - Life...

Sönke Johnsen

The open ocean, far from the shore and miles above the seafloor, is a vast and formidable habitat that is home to the most abundant life on our planet, from giant squid and jellyfish to anglerfish with bioluminescent lures that draw prey into their toothy mouths. Into the Great Wide Ocean takes listeners inside the peculiar world of the seagoing scientists who are providing tantalizing new insights into how the animals of the open ocean solve the problems of their existence. 
 
 
 
Sönke Johnsen vividly describes how life in the water column of the open sea contends with a host of environmental challenges, such as gravity, movement, the absence of light, pressure that could crush a truck, catching food while not becoming food, finding a mate, raising young, and forming communities. He interweaves stories about the joys and hardships of the scientists who explore this beautiful and mysterious realm, which is under threat from human activity and rapidly changing before our eyes. 
 
 
 
Into the Great Wide Ocean presents the sea and its inhabitants as you have never seen them before and reminds us that the rules of survival in the open ocean, though they may seem strange to us, are the primary rules of life on Earth.
