Found a better way to search for jobs
Useful and informative. I was very interested in programming/consulting and this book helped direct my focus to achieve my goal. Although it doesn't tell you exaclty how to become a programmer/consultant, expecially right out of school, which is very hard, it helped me search for more knowledge and that's how I came upon "The Secret Path to Contract Programming Riches...,"which showed me exactly what to do to become a contract programmer as quickely as I can. If you are like me, "Great Jobs for Computer Science Majors" will be but one of many great books in your life that helps shape your destiny and career fulfillment.
Great Jobs for Computer Science Majors I got a great paying job at a large corporation and I have not evengraduated yet. That is how good this book is!!!!!!!!!

Editorial Review Product Description Here is an accessible, algorithmically oriented guide to some of the most interesting techniques of complexity theory. The book shows that simple algorithms are at the heart of complexity theory. The book is organized by technique rather than by topic. Each chapter focuses on one technique: what it is, and what results and applications it yields. Customer Reviews (1)

looking for CS GRE books? this might help Well, I searched for CS GRE books everywhere, couldn't find any; but finally found few books which might be of help if you are giving CS GRE. You mainly need books for Introductory programming (Pascal and C) some operating system and compiler So get 5 solid books for these and you will be all set. And here are good books I found for preparing these topics. Finally :-( ( I have only a week left to prepare when I found these books) Schaum's outline in digital logic these two (above) are excellent and are good All of these books have required theory in them, followed by problems and solutions. Very well explained, easy to follow and just the right amount of info needed for CS GRE. Hope this helps. Good Luck ~ sameer
Other sources for help The first book I would like to recommend is Fundamentals of Data Structures, by Ellis Horowitz and Sartaj Sahni. It helped me to review subjects like binary trees, hashing, sorting, searching, and graphs. The second recommendation is Compilers: Principles, Techniques and Tools, by Aho, A., R. Sethi, and D. Ullman. There are many questions related to context-free grammars in the exam, and this book helped me to solve many of sample questions in the GRE:Practicing to Take the Computer Science Test book. There are some questions related to digital logic and binary arithmetics. One book very well written that could help on practicing binary operations is An Introduction to Computer Logic, by H. T. Nagle. In addition, the test generally features some questions with a small algorithm or piece of program, written in C, Pascal or structured english. A very good book, which has helped me not only to practice for this questions, is The C Programming Language, by B. Kernighan and D. Ritchie. Moreover, there are some questions related to computer architecture. A good source in this field is Computer Organization and Architecture, by W. Stallings. Finally, a good book that covers almost all the subjects is Computer Science, an Overview, by J. Gleen Brookshear. It is a nice material for a final review, and also comes with questions/answers of binary arithmetics. I hope this essay be helpful for you as a guide to find material to complement the practicing tests.
Useful, but only just Thisbook will be useful as a last minute review for the test. One can try to dothe sample test and measure oneself before the actual test. However, thedetails of the test and steps to prepare, etc are exactly the same as thoseon the Bulletin, which is availible for free download at gre.org oravailible when you apply for the test. A more detailed specification ofthe syllabus and some more sample question will be worthy additions. ... Read more |
90. Practical Distributed Processing (Undergraduate Topics in Computer Science) by Phillip J. Brooke, Richard F. Paige | |

Editorial Review Product Description Distributed processing has a strong theoretical foundation, but many day-to-day practitioners make limited use of the advantages this theory can give them. The result includes unreliable systems with obscure and intermittent failures that can cost time, money and in extreme cases, lives. Reliable construction of distributed and concurrent systems must incorporate theory in practice. This book provides a concise presentation of the theory closely linked to the practical realisation of these concepts. This easy-to-follow textbook focuses on practical issues of building working distributed systems and gives an overview of the basic theory, principles and techniques, whilst illustrating how these fit together, via the process of building interesting, non-trivial systems. Topics and features: • Provides all the elements needed for a complete development of a distributed system, from theory to practice • Offers an integrated approach to the field of distributed processing, and presents a coherent view of the field as a practical subject • Links theoretical models of concurrency with practical realisation of systems • Contains many examples from C, Java Ada and Eiffel, as well as case studies • Considers important aspects of the engineering process, including models that can be used to assess and analyse parts of distributed systems, implementation techniques, as well as protocols and security concerns • Many pedagogical tools: chapter summaries, exercises (with sketch solutions and hints), comprehensive glossary, Internet support for students and instructors, accessible at http://www.scm.tees.ac.uk/p.j.brooke/dpb/. • Ideal for use by lecturers as a coherent one-term course or module on distributed systems Written with undergraduates in mind, especially relevant for intermediate-level students, this user-friendly textbook will prove a clear and comprehensive guide to the topic and the foundations for a methodological approach to building these systems. Dr Phil Brooke is a lecturer in computer science at the University of Teesside, and Dr Richard Paige is a lecturer in computer science at the University of York. Both have extensive teaching experience, from which this textbook has grown. |

Helpful resource for my class
Okay
Good book, reusable, but not worth to buy If you are rich and want to waste money
From a students perspective
The only book you'll need! The book provides a detailed and descriptive review of all the A Exam topics that you'll need to know.The Book is strong in all topics including the Case Study except for the chapter on Sorting and Searching.That topic will require further study to master, as it is the hardest topic on the exam (at least for most people.)However, all other topics are covered very well and in great detail.You'll know all the details for the A Exam.The practice questions and practice exams are also great.I studied them over and over until I could answer every question correctly.The questions are harder than the actual exam, so when you get to exam day, the test will feel so easy to you. This book, plenty of hard work in April, and detailed study of the Case Study PDF file and source code will bring you an easy 5 on the A Exam! ... Read more |

Just what you expect from a handbook On the other hand, this is a huge field, and no handbook can put all of this in one book.I found that many topics that I was looking in were not in good detail at all.For instance I was looking in Fortune's voronoi construction, the terse way of explaining things does not give the reader enough insight.
A book well worth putting on your shelf. |
