Taylor & Francis Ltd Remote Delivery
Book SynopsisThis book records the author's years of experience in the software industry. In his own practices, the author has found that the distributed work pattern has become increasingly popular in more and more work environments, either between vendors and customers or between different teams inside a company. This means that all practitioners in the software industry need to adapt to this new way of communication and collaboration and get skilled enough to meet the greater challenges in integrating the distributed work pattern with agile software delivery. By centering on the difficulties in communication and collaboration between distributed teams, this book digs into the reasons why so many remote delivery projects end up anticlimactic and provides solutions for readers' reference. It also cites successful cases in promoting agile development in distributed teams, which has been a vexing problem for many software development companies. In addition, readers can find suggestions andTable of ContentsForeword 1: Taking Up Delivery Wholeheartedly. Foreword 2: Pursue Ideal Software Delivery. Preface.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Foundations of Reinforcement Learning with
Book SynopsisFoundations of Reinforcement Learning with Applications in Finance aims to demystify Reinforcement Learning, and to make it a practically useful tool for those studying and working in applied areas especially finance.Reinforcement Learning is emerging as a powerful technique for solving a variety of complex problems across industries that involve Sequential Optimal Decisioning under Uncertainty. Its penetration in high-profile problems like self-driving cars, robotics, and strategy games points to a future where Reinforcement Learning algorithms will have decisioning abilities far superior to humans. But when it comes getting educated in this area, there seems to be a reluctance to jump right in, because Reinforcement Learning appears to have acquired a reputation for being mysterious and technically challenging.This book strives to impart a lucid and insightful understanding of the topic by emphasizing the foundational mathematics and implemTrade Review“This book is a nice addition to the literature on Reinforcement Learning (RL), offering comprehensive coverage of both foundational RL techniques and their applications in the field of finance. It has the potential to be a foundational reference for both practitioners and researchers in finance. The book delves into essential RL concepts such as Markov Decision Processes (MDPs), Dynamic Programming, Policy Optimization, Actor-Critic models, Multi-armed Bandits, and Regret Bounds.Despite its finance-oriented approach, individuals without an extensive financial background but possessing a decent machine learning (ML) background will find it easy to read this book.By encompassing all of the major asset classes including equities, fixed income and derivatives, the book caters to a broad range of readers, enabling them to apply RL techniques to diverse financial scenarios. In summary, this book is an outstanding resource that combines RL fundamentals with practical applications in finance.” – Natesh Pillai, Department of Statistics, Harvard University, Unites States of AmericaTable of ContentsSection I.

Taylor & Francis Ltd User Experience Research and Usability of Health
Book SynopsisHealth information technology (HIT) is a critical component of the modern healthcare system. Yet to be effective and safely implemented in healthcare organizations and physicians and patients' lives, it must be usable and useful. User Experience (UX) research is required throughout the full system design lifecycle of HIT products, which involve a user-centered and human- centered approach. This book discusses UX research frameworks, study designs, methods, data-analysis techniques, and a variety of data collection instruments and tools that can be used to conduct UX research in the healthcare space, all of which involve HIT and digital health. This book is for academics and scholars to be used to design studies for graduate dissertation work, in independent research, or as a textbook for UX/usability courses in health informatics or related health information and communication courses. This book is also useful for UX practitioners because it provides guidance on how to design a userTable of Contents1. Introduction. 2. Definitions: Usability, UX, and UCD. 3.
