The New Generative AI with LangChain Playbook
STOP Building Fragile AI Prototypes That Break in Production While your competitors struggle with basic chatbots, you'll be deploying bulletproof multi-agent systems that actually scale. This isn't another theoretical AI book-it's your unfair advantage in the $1.3 trillion AI revolution. In 90 days, you'll master what most developers take years to figure out: Multi-agent architectures that Fortune 500 companies pay $500K+ to implement Production-grade security frameworks that protect your AI from the vulnerabilities plaguing 73% of deployed systems Scalable patterns that handle millions of requests without breaking The brutal truth: 89% of AI projects fail because developers skip the fundamentals covered in Chapter 3 alone. Don't be another statistic. Don't let another day pass watching others build the future while you're stuck in prototype hell-your breakthrough starts today!

Wireless Communication and Remote Control in Drone Delivery Networks
Delivery drones, also known as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), are revolutionizing the logistics and transportation industry by providing fast, efficient, and contactless delivery solutions. These autonomous or semi-autonomous aerial systems are increasingly used for last-mile delivery of packages, food, medical supplies, and other goods. With the integration of GPS, real-time data transmission, and obstacle avoidance technologies, drones can navigate complex environments and deliver goods directly to customers' doorsteps, often in a fraction of the time required by traditional methods. One of the key advantages of delivery drones is their ability to bypass ground traffic and reach remote or inaccessible areas, making them especially useful during emergencies or natural disasters. They also have the potential to reduce carbon emissions and overall transportation costs by minimizing reliance on fossil-fueled vehicles.

Cyber Forensics and Digital Security
In today's hyperconnected world, where digital transformation accelerates at an unprecedented pace, the dark underbelly of cybercrime evolves just as rapidly. This comprehensive guide addresses the critical intersection of artificial intelligence, digital forensics, and cybersecurity, offering professionals a vital roadmap through the complex landscape of modern cyber threats.As organizations worldwide face increasingly sophisticated attacks - from AI-powered malware to blockchain-enabled fraud schemes - the traditional approaches to digital security are proving inadequate. This book rises to meet this challenge, presenting a forward-thinking framework that combines cutting-edge forensic techniques with advanced risk management strategies. It serves as both an educational resource and practical manual for cybersecurity specialists, forensic investigators, law enforcement personnel, and IT risk managers who must stay ahead of adversaries in this high-stakes digital arms race.The content systematically explores the full spectrum of contemporary cyber threats while providing actionable solutions rooted in real-world experience. Beginning with foundational concepts, the book progresses to advanced topics including machine learning applications in threat detection, blockchain forensic analysis, and the emerging field of predictive cybersecurity. Readers will gain expertise in critical areas such as incident response protocols, digital evidence preservation, cloud security forensics, and the legal considerations surrounding cyber investigations.What sets this work apart is its emphasis on the transformative role of artificial intelligence in both perpetrating and preventing cybercrime. Detailed case studies demonstrate how AI algorithms can analyze patterns in massive datasets to predict attacks, while also examining how cybercriminals weaponize these same technologies. The book provides hands-on guidance for implementing AI-driven security systems, with particular focus on anomaly detection, behavioral analytics, and automated threat response.For forensic professionals, specialized chapters cover the complete investigative process from crime scene documentation to courtroom testimony. Topics include memory forensics, network traffic analysis, mobile device examination, and countering anti-forensic techniques. The risk management sections offer proven methodologies for vulnerability assessment, security architecture design, and developing organizational cyber resilience.Recognizing that effective cybersecurity requires more than technical skills, the book also addresses human factors including social engineering defense, security awareness training, and building a culture of cyber vigilance. It concludes with forward-looking perspectives on quantum computing threats, IoT security challenges, and preparing for the next generation of digital risks.
The Collaborative Coder
The digital revolution has redefined the boundaries of software development, transforming it into a borderless, asynchronous, and globally connected discipline. The Collaborative Coder is the definitive guide for developers, engineering leaders, and remote teams navigating this new landscape where success depends not just on technical skill, but on the ability to collaborate effectively across screens, time zones, and cultures.This book bridges the gap between traditional coding expertise and the nuanced demands of distributed teamwork. It goes beyond tools and workflows to address the human dynamics of remote-first development how to build trust without face-to-face interaction, maintain alignment without micromanagement, and foster innovation without spontaneous office encounters. Through real-world insights and actionable strategies, it equips readers to turn the challenges of remote work into a competitive edge.From asynchronous communication frameworks to conflict resolution in virtual environments, from maintaining code quality in distributed repos to leading inclusive standups across continents, The Collaborative Coder provides the missing playbook for thriving in this new era. It's essential reading for anyone who writes, leads, or collaborates on code in a world where the office is optional, but connection is not.The future of software isn't just about what we build it's about how we build it together.
Llmops
Here's the thing about large language models: they don't play by the old rules. Traditional MLOps completely falls apart when you're dealing with GenAI. The model hallucinates, security assumptions crumble, monitoring breaks, and agents can't operate. Suddenly you're in uncharted territory. That's exactly why LLMOps has emerged as its own discipline. LLMOps: Managing Large Language Models in Production is your guide to actually running these systems when real users and real money are on the line. This book isn't about building cool demos. It's about keeping LLM systems running smoothly in the real world. Navigate the new roles and processes that LLM operations require Monitor LLM performance when traditional metrics don't tell the whole story Set up evaluations, governance, and security audits that actually matter for GenAI Wrangle the operational mess of agents, RAG systems, and evolving prompts Scale infrastructure without burning through your compute budget
