Over the decades, programming languages have become more and more user friendly, making them accessible to more people. Nowadays, several countries around the world are general... Sep 26 2022 What every engineer and computer scientist should know: the biggest contributor to happiness Picard R. Communications of the ACM 64(12): 40-42, 2021.  Type: Article Obviously, people in this world go through periods of happiness and unhappiness. But do computer engineers and scientists really understand the factors that account for true happiness in daily life? Perhaps there are useful features fo... Sep 19 2022 Computational thinking: a perspective on computer science Xu Z., Zhang J., Springer International Publishing, Cham, Switzerland, 2021. 345 pp.  Type: Book (978-9-811638-47-3) Most students taking an introductory computer science (CS) course often start with learning how to write programs in a high-level language. They learn how to analyze problems so that they can create procedures (that is, algorithms) to solve them, ... Sep 12 2022 Big data 2.0 processing systems Sakr S., Springer International Publishing, New York, NY, 2020. 164 pp.  Type: Book (978-3-030441-86-9) This is a slightly expanded new edition of Sakr’s 2016 book.
