Learning SPARQL, 2nd Edition

Posted: 08 Aug 2013 04:44 AM PDT

Book Description

Gain hands-on experience with SPARQL, the RDF query language that's bringing new possibilities to semantic web, linked data, and big data projects. This updated and expanded edition shows you how to use SPARQL 1.1 with a variety of tools to retrieve, manipulate, and federate data from the public web as well as from private sources.

Author Bob DuCharme has you writing simple queries right away before providing background on how SPARQL fits into RDF technologies. Using short examples that you can run yourself with open source software, you'll learn how to update, add to, and delete data in RDF datasets.

  • Get the big picture on RDF, linked data, and the semantic web
  • Use SPARQL to find bad data and create new data from existing data
  • Use datatype metadata and functions in your queries
  • Learn techniques and tools to help your queries run more efficiently
  • Use RDF Schemas and OWL ontologies to extend the power of your queries
  • Discover the roles that SPARQL can play in your applications

Table of Contents
Chapter 1. Jumping Right In: Some Data and Some Queries
Chapter 2. The Semantic Web, RDF, and Linked Data (and SPARQL)
Chapter 3. SPARQL Queries: A Deeper Dive
Chapter 4. Copying, Creating, and Converting Data (and Finding Bad Data)

Parallel and Concurrent Programming in Haskell

Posted: 08 Aug 2013 04:40 AM PDT

Book Description

If you have a working knowledge of Haskell, this hands-on book shows you how to use the language's many APIs and frameworks for writing both parallel and concurrent programs. You'll learn how parallelism exploits multicore processors to speed up computation-heavy programs, and how concurrency enables you to write programs with threads for multiple interactions.

Author Simon Marlow walks you through the process with lots of code examples that you can run, experiment with, and extend. Divided into separate sections on Parallel and Concurrent Haskell, this book also includes exercises to help you become familiar with the concepts presented:

  • Express parallelism in Haskell with the Eval monad and Evaluation Strategies
  • Parallelize ordinary Haskell code with the Par monad
  • Build parallel array-based computations, using the Repa library
  • Use the Accelerate library to run computations directly on the GPU
  • Work with basic interfaces for writing concurrent code
  • Build trees of threads for larger and more complex programs
  • Learn how to build high-speed concurrent network servers
  • Write distributed programs that run on multiple machines in a network

Table of Contents
Chapter 1. Introduction

Part I: Parallel Haskell
Chapter 2. Basic Parallelism: The Eval Monad
Chapter 3. Evaluation Strategies
Chapter 4. Dataflow Parallelism: The Par Monad
Chapter 5. Data Parallel Programming with Repa

Lift Cookbook

Posted: 08 Aug 2013 04:36 AM PDT

Book Description

If you need help building web applications with the Lift framework, this cookbook provides scores of concise, ready-to-use code solutions. You'll find recipes for everything from setting up a coding environment to creating REST web services and deploying your application to production.

Built on top of the Scala JVM programming language, Lift takes a different—yet ultimately easier—approach to development than MVC frameworks such as Rails. Each recipe in this book includes a discussion of how and why each solution works, not only to help you complete the task at hand, but also to illustrate how Lift works.

  • Set up an environment and run your first Lift application
  • Generate HTML, using Lift's View First approach
  • Submit forms and work with form elements
  • Build REST web services with the framework's RestHelper trait
  • Take advantage of Lift's support for Ajax and Comet
  • Get examples for modifying Lift's request pipeline
  • Convert Scala classes into tables, rows, and columns in a relational database
  • Send email, call URLs, and schedule tasks from your application
  • Package and deploy your application to various hosted services

Table of Contents
Chapter 1. Installing and Running Lift
Chapter 2. HTML
Chapter 3. Forms Processing in Lift
Chapter 4. REST
Chapter 5. JavaScript, Ajax, and Comet
