An Expert Guide to Software Performance Optimization. From mobile and cloud apps to video games to driverless vehicle control, more and more software is time-constrained: It must deliver reliable results seamlessly, consistently, and virtually instantaneously. If it doesn't, customers are unhappy--and sometimes lives are put at risk. When complex software underperforms or fails, software engineers need to identify and address the root causes. This is difficult and, historically, few tools have been available to help.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) presents a new paradigm in the development of software, representing the biggest change to how we think about quality and testing in decades. Many of the well known issues around AI, such as bias, manifest themselves as quality management problems. This book explores AI from that angle and is aimed at testing and quality management practitioners who want to understand more, starting with the relationship between AI and trustworthiness, the issue of bias, and the complexities of testing Machine Learning systems. The book then pivots to cover how AI can be used itself in software test automation, before exploring the more advanced topic of ontologies, and how they can be brought together with AI and testing. Finally, examples of shift-right testing and AIOps are considered. This book is a journey through a number of topics relating to AI and quality, which is a hot topic for practitioners, as well as policy-makers and academics. AI quality is different from conventional software quality. Chapter 2 of this book explains why that is, covering topics from bias to drift. We talk about these issues from a quality perspective, but many of them are of keen interest to practitioners who would not normally consider themselves interested in quality. Chapter 4 moves on to the complexities and challenges in testing Machine Learning systems, which make up the largest proportion of AI deployments today.

This book introduces the theory and applications of metaheuristic algorithms. It also provides methods for solving practical problems in such fields as software engineering, image recognition, video networks, and in the oceans. In the theoretical section, the book introduces the information feedback model, learning-based intelligent optimization, dynamic multi-objective optimization, and multi-model optimization. In the applications section, the book presents applications of optimization algorithms to neural architecture search, fuzz testing, oceans, and image processing. The neural architecture search chapter introduces the latest NAS method. The fuzz testing chapter uses multi-objective optimization and ant colony optimization to solve the seed selection and energy allocation problems in fuzz testing. In the ocean chapter, Deep Learning methods such as CNN, transformer, and attention-based methods are used to describe ENSO prediction and image processing for marine fish identification, and to provide an overview of traditional classification methods and Deep Learning methods.
