Audit Analytics (2nd Edition)


Free Download Audit Analytics: Data Science for the Accounting Profession
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031474635 | 484 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 135 MB
Today, information technology plays a pivotal role in financial control and audit: most financial data is now digitally recorded and dispersed among servers, clouds and networks over which the audited firm has no control. Additionally, a firm’s data―particularly in the case of finance, software, insurance and biotech firms―comprises most of the audited value of the firm. Financial audits are critical mechanisms for ensuring the integrity of information systems and the reporting of organizational finances. They help avoid the abuses that led to passage of legislation such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (1977), and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (2002).

Analysis, Design and Construction of Foundations (2nd Edition)


Free Download Analysis, Design and Construction of Foundations
English | 2024 | ISBN: 1032650567 | 713 Pages | PDF (True) | 213 MB
The book examines in depth the methods used for the analysis, design and construction of shallow foundations, deep foundations, excavation and lateral support systems, slope stability and stabilization and ground monitoring for proper site management. Some new and innovative foundation construction methods are also introduced. It is illustrated with case studies of failures and defects from actual construction projects.

Zero Trust Networks, 2nd Edition (5th Early Release)


Free Download Zero Trust Networks, 2nd Edition (5th Early Release) by Razi Rais
English | ISBN: 9781492096580 | 118 pages | PDF | 4.09 Mb
Perimeter defenses guarding your network aren’t as secure as you might think. Hosts behind the firewall have no defenses of their own, so when a host in the "trusted" zone is breached, access to your data center is not far behind. This practical book introduces you to the zero trust model, a method that treats all hosts as if they’re internet-facing, and considers the entire network to be compromised and hostile.

What Do Great Teachers Say, 2nd Edition


Free Download What Do Great Teachers Say?, 2nd Edition
English | 2024 | ISBN: 1032505869 | 294 Pages | PDF (True) | 1.4 MB
Do you remember a time when you used the right words at the right moment, and they made all the difference? With the aim of helping you repeat that experience every day, this book provides hundreds of examples of what we call Great Teacher Language, a technique designed to help all teachers use words to transform student behavior and parent relationships. In their years of working at the K-12 levels, educators Hal Holloman and Peggy H. Yates have identified the exact phrases and key words you can use in your classroom to address inappropriate outbursts, a lack of respect and cooperation, student conflict, and more. Great Teacher Language will enable you to transform student behavior, parent relationships, and your classroom culture.

The Econometrics of Multi-dimensional Panels (2nd Edition)


Free Download The Econometrics of Multi-dimensional Panels: Theory and Applications
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031498488 | 561 Pages | PDF (True) | 12 MB
This book presents the econometric foundations and applications of multi-dimensional panels, including modern methods of big data analysis. In light of the big data revolution and the emergence of higher dimensional panel data sets, it provides new results to synthesize existing knowledge on the field. The first, theoretical part of the volume is providing the econometric foundations to deal with these new high-dimensional panel data sets. It not only synthesizes our current knowledge, but mostly, presents new research results. The second empirical part of the book provides insight into the most relevant applications in this area. These chapters are a mixture of surveys and new results, always focusing on the econometric problems and feasible solutions.

Solving Fault Diagnosis Problems (2nd Edition)


Free Download Solving Fault Diagnosis Problems: Linear Synthesis Techniques with Julia Code Examples
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031357663 | 760 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 58 MB
The goal of this new edition is the same as for the first edition "to address the fault detection and isolation topics from a computational perspective", by covering the same important aspects, namely, (1) providing a completely general theoretical treatment of fault and model detection problems for linear time-invariant systems; (2) presenting the best suited numerical approaches to solve the specific computational problems; (3) providing supporting software to solve the analysis and filter synthesis problems. In this second edition, the changes in the theoretical presentation are minor and all known errors and typos have been corrected. The major difference to the first edition is in the underlying computational support, which is now based on software developed in a relatively new language called Julia. The presentation of synthesis procedures and examples is similar to the first edition, but it is now interlaced with Julia codes which can be used to reproduce all computational examples and figures presented in the book. An Appendix has been added to cover some basic issues related to using Julia and the new FaultDetectionTools and DescriptorSystems packages.

Shared-Memory Synchronization (2nd Edition)


Free Download Shared-Memory Synchronization
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031386833 | 251 Pages | PDF (True) | 3 MB
This book offers a comprehensive survey of shared-memory synchronization, with an emphasis on "systems-level" issues. It includes sufficient coverage of architectural details to understand correctness and performance on modern multicore machines, and sufficient coverage of higher-level issues to understand how synchronization is embedded in modern programming languages.
