The lovely people at InfoQ have kindly created a series of beautifully produced emags based on The Morning Paper, with five papers in each edition based on my choices from the previous quarter. Here’s what you can find in the first eight issues:
- Issue 8, an AI special! Covering “Computing machinery and intelligence“, “Mastering chess and shogi by self-play with a general reinforcement learning algorithm“, “Deep learning scaling is predictable, empirically“, “DeepTest: automated testing of deep-neural-network-driven autonomous cars“, and “Deep code search.”
- Issue 7, on experimentation, optimisation, and learning. Covering “A dirty dozen: twelve common metric interpretation pitfalls in online controlled experiments“, “Seven rules of thumb for website experimenters“, “The evolution of continuous experimentation in software product development“, “Google Vizier: A service for black-box optimization“, and “TFX: A TensorFlow-based production scale machine learning platform.”
- Issue 6, covering 2Q17: “Gray failure: the Achilles heel of cloud-scale systems“, “Trajectory recovery from ash: user privacy is NOT preserved in aggregated mobility data“, “IoT goes nuclear: creating a ZigBee chain reaction“, “System programming in Rust: beyond safety“, and “Mosaic: processing a trillion-edge graph on a single machine.”
- Issue 5, covering 1Q17: “Toward sustainable insights“, “When DNNs go wrong“, “Thou shalt not depend on me“, “Redundancy does not imply fault tolerance“, and “The curious case of the PDF converter that liked Mozart.”
- Issue 4, covering 4Q16: “Simple testing can prevent most critical failures“, “Towards deep symbolic reinforcement learning“, “When CSI meets public WiFi“, “Kraken: leveraging live traffic tests to identify and resolve resource utilisation bottlenecks“, “Morpheus: towards automated SLOs for enterprise clusters.”
- Issue 3, covering 3Q16: “DBSherlock: A performance diagnostic tool for transactional databases“, “Goods: Organizing Google’s datasets“, “Flexible Paxos: Quorum intersection revisited“, “On designing and deploying Internet scale services“, “On the criteria to be used in decomposing systems into modules.”
- Issue 2, covering 2Q16: “The amazing power of word vectors“, “Deep learning in neural networks: an overview“, “Gorilla: a fast, scalable, in-memory time series database“, “How to build static checking systems using orders of magnitude less code“, “A survey of available corpora for building data driven dialog systems.”
- Issue 1, covering 1Q16: “ARIES – a transaction recovery method“, “No compromises – distributed transactions with consistency, availability, and performance“, “All file systems are not created equal“, “Not-quite-so-broken TLS“, “Hyperloglog in practice.”
