ESSENTIAL GUIDE:
In this chapter from the book Raspberry PI with Java: Programming the Internet of Things, Stephen Chin walks you through the process of setting up (or baking) the Raspberry Pi.
EGUIDE:
All kinds of organisations are waking up to the benefits of next-generation programming tools. In this 14-page buyer's guide, Computer Weekly looks at how low-code tools are helping a range of users, the ways they can boost efficiency and the many considerations that come with them.
WHITE PAPER:
This article begins a four part series that explores the following important AI concepts and how to optimize them to run on today’s cutting edge multi-core processors.
TECHNICAL ARTICLE:
In this 3rd part of the Designing Artificial Intelligence for Games series, you'll learn how to give your agents higher orders of intelligence. The agents can already deal with the immediate situation they find themselves in; now you are working toward artificial intelligence (AI) that deals with broader goals and the bigger picture.
