Introduzione a OOP Per la definizione di classe andare a guardare Object orientation, però lo ripeto in questa occasione, è solamente un modello su cui andare a costruire degli oggetti. Capisaldi🟩 Incapsulazione Astrazione Ereditarietà Dispatch dinamico Costruttori 🟩- Il costruttore è un codice utilizzato per inizializzare correttamente lo stato interno. Le regole sono le stesse dei metodi sovraccaricati (dinamica per la chiamata, statica per il numero dei parametri che prende in input). ...

Introduzione a Crittografia al corso di crittografia di Christof Paar su Youtube, con aggiunte del corso Unibo. Classifications and definitions Classification nowadays as many many applications like, and it’s a increasing important field Cryptology (2) 🟩 La branca comunemente riferita come crittografia è divisa principalmente in due campi crittografia e cryptanalysis in cui una cerca di creare nuovi metodi per cifrare i messaggi, e l’altro prova ad attaccare questi messaggi ritrovando il messaggio originale. ...

Cloud Computing: An Overview Key Players in the Cloud Industry The cloud computing market is dominated by several major providers, often referred to as the “Big Seven”: Amazon Web Services (AWS): The largest provider, offering a comprehensive suite of cloud services. Microsoft Azure: Known for deep integration with enterprise systems and hybrid cloud solutions. Google Cloud Platform (GCP): Excels in data analytics, AI/ML, and Kubernetes-based solutions. IBM Cloud: Focuses on hybrid cloud and enterprise-grade AI. Oracle Cloud: Specializes in database solutions and enterprise applications. Alibaba Cloud: The leading provider in Asia, offering services similar to AWS. Salesforce: A major player in SaaS, particularly for CRM and business applications. These providers collectively control the majority of the global cloud infrastructure market, enabling scalable and on-demand computing resources for businesses worldwide. Capital and Operational Expenses in the Cloud Cloud computing transforms traditional IT cost structures by shifting expenses from capital expenditures (CapEx), such as purchasing servers and data centers, to operational expenditures (OpEx), where users pay only for the resources they consume. ...

Object Stores Object storage design principles 🟨++ We don’t want the hierarchy that is common in Filesystems, so we need to simplify that and have these four principles: Black-box objects Flat and global key-value model (trivial model, easy to access, without the need to trasverse a file hierarchy). Flexible metadata Commodity hardware (the battery idea of Tesla until 2017). Object storage usages 🟩 Object storage are useful to store things that are usually read-intensive. Some examples are ...

Gaussian Mixture Models This set takes inspiration from chapter 9.2 of (Bishop 2006). We assume that the reader already knows quite well what is a Gaussian mixture model and we will just restate the models here. We will discuss the problem of estimating the best possible parameters (so, this is a density estimation problem) when the data is generated by a mixture of Gaussians. $$ \mathcal{N}(x \mid \mu, \Sigma) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{ 2\pi }} \frac{1}{\lvert \Sigma \rvert^{1/2} } \exp \left( -\frac{1}{2} (x - \mu)^{T} \Sigma^{-1}(x - \mu) \right) $$Problem statement 🟩 $$ p(z) = \prod_{i = 1}^{k} \pi_{i}^{z_{i}} $$ Because we know that $z$ is a $k$ dimensional vector that has a single digit indicating which Gaussian was chosen. ...
