Erlang is gaining widespread adoption with the advent of multi-core processors and their new scalable approach to concurrency. With this guide you'll learn how to write complex concurrent programs in Erlang, regardless of your programming background or experience. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten by leaders of the international Erlang community -- and based on their training material -- \u003cem\u003eErlang Programming\u003c\/em\u003e focuses on the language's syntax and semantics, and explains pattern matching, proper lists, recursion, debugging, networking, and concurrency.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book helps you: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderstand the strengths of Erlang and why its designers included specific features\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLearn the concepts behind concurrency and Erlang's way of handling it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWrite efficient Erlang programs while keeping code neat and readable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscover how Erlang fills the requirements for distributed systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdd simple graphical user interfaces with little effort\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLearn Erlang's tracing mechanisms for debugging concurrent and distributed systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse the built-in Mnesia database and other table storage features\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eErlang Programming\u003c\/em\u003e provides exercises at the end of each chapter and simple examples throughout the book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Francesco Cesarini, Simon Thompson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e O'Reilly Media\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/14\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 498\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 7.00w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780596518189\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrancesco Cesarini is the founder and CTO of Erlang Training and Consulting http: \/\/www.erlang-consulting.com\/. Having used Erlang on a daily basis since 1995, he started his career as an intern at Ericsson's computer science lab, the birth place of Erlang. He spent four years at Ericsson working with flagship Erlang projects, including the R1 release of the OTP middleware. He has taught Erlang\/OTP to all parties involved in the software cycle, including developers, support engineers, testers as well as project and technical managers. In 2003, he also started teaching undergraduate students at the IT University of Gothenburg.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSoon after Erlang was released as Open Source, he founded Erlang Training and Consulting. With offices in the UK, Sweden, Poland (and soon the US), they have become the world leaders an Erlang based consulting, contracting, support, training and systems development. Their client base is spread on five continents and ranges from small start-ups to blue chip companies. In his role as CTO, is currently leading the research, development and consulting teams.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe is active in the Erlang community not only through regularly talks, seminars and tutorials at conferences worldwide, but also through his involvement in international research projects. He organises local Erlang user groups and with the help of his colleagues, runs the trapexit.org http: \/\/www.trapexit.org\/ Erlang community website.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSimon Thompson is Professor of Logic and Computation in the Computing Laboratory of the University of Kent, where he has taught computing at undergraduate and postgraduate levels for the past twenty five years, and where he has been department head for the last six.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHis research work has centered on functional programming: program verification, type systems, and most recently development of software tools for functional programming languages. His team has built the HaRe tool for refactoring Haskell programs, and is currently developing Wrangler to do the same for Erlang. His research has been funded by various agencies including EPSRC and the European Framework programme. His training is as a mathematician: he has an MA in Mathematics from Cambridge and a D.Phil. in mathematical logic from Oxford.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe has written three books in his field of interest; Type Theory and Functional Programming published in 1991; Miranda: The Craft of Functional Programming (1995) and Haskell: The Craft of Functional Programming (2nd ed. 1999). These are all published by Addison Wesley.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"O'Reilly Media","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40067343548531,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":46.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_6a3404b7-1bc0-4969-a403-932155460f11.jpg?v=1651846577","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/erlang-programming-a-concurrent-approach-to-software-development-9780596518189","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
