This book provides readers a comprehensive introduction to alternative number systems for more efficient representations of Deep Neural Network (DNN) data. Various number systems (conventional/unconventional) exploited for DNNs are discussed, including Floating Point (FP), Fixed Point (FXP), Logarithmic Number System (LNS), Residue Number System (RNS), Block Floating Point Number System (BFP), Dynamic Fixed-Point Number System (DFXP) and Posit Number System (PNS). The authors explore the impact of these number systems on the performance and hardware design of DNNs, highlighting the challenges associated with each number system and various solutions that are proposed for addressing them. During the past decade, DNNs have shown outstanding performance in a myriad of Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications. Since their success in both speech and image recognition, great attention has been drawn to DNNs from academia and industry, which subsequently led to a wide range of products that utilize them.

Scale mobile applications to handle an enormous user base and development team. This book outlines the scaling challenges that mobile engineers face and some standard techniques and design patterns to deal with those issues. This book will teach you how to build mobile applications that will scale for millions of users while growing your career to the staff and principal levels. The book is structured to mirror an engineer’s career path and maps the career stages to the tools needed for success at each one. We start with the basics of engineering covered with a Swift language focus; however, most fundamentals are applicable beyond the Swift programming language. This is by design because, over time, frameworks and languages will come and go (SwiftUI, obj-c), but the fundamental concepts underlying them will not. Understanding these basic concepts allows you to apply them to changing environments and efficiently learn new tools – an even more critical skill at scale because many large companies write custom implementations. Understanding the fundamentals marks the first stage of a software engineer’s career and the first part of this book.

The emergence of Artificial Intelligence has triggered enthusiasm and promise of boundless opportunities as much as uncertainty about its limits. The contributions to this volume explore the limits of AI, describe the necessary conditions for its functionality, reveal its attendant technical and social problems, and present some existing and potential solutions. At the same time, the contributors highlight the societal and attending economic hopes and fears, utopias and dystopias that are associated with the current and future development of Artificial Intelligence. Intelligent machines and algorithms, mostly subsumed under the name of Artificial Intelligence (AI), are pervading ever more areas of modern life. In doing so, they are increasingly presenting results that exceed the capabilities of humans in the respective area of application. Examples are Alpha Go in the Asian game of Go, AI-based chess computers, ChatGPT or the Watson system in the television show Jeopardy. But what can really be concluded from such results with respect to the capabilities of Artificial Intelligence?
