Financial Numerical Recipes in C++: Applications in Finance

In finance, there are areas where formulas tend to get involved. Sometimes it may be easier to follow an exact computer routine. The author has made some C++ subroutines that implements common algoritms in finance. Typical examples are option/derivatives pricing, term structure calculations, mean variance analysis. These routines are presented together with a good deal of explanations and examples of use, but it is by no means a complete "book" with all the answers and explanations.

All the routines have been made to confirm to the new ISO/ANSI C++ standard, using such concepts as namespaces and the standard template library. The latest (2011) C++ standard introduced a few useful simplifications, which is incorporated in places.

I'm planning to turn it into a book, but even in its incomplete state is should provide a good deal of useful examples and algorithms for people working within the field of finance. The manuscript and codes will be added to as I get time. All the code should conform to the current ANSI C++ standard.

This book is a a discussion of the calculation of specific formulas in finance. The field of finance has seen a rapid development in recent years, with increasing mathematical sophistication.

How to Make a Computer Operating System from Scratch using C/C++

 This book is about how to write a computer operating system in C/C++ from scratch. The goal is to build a very simple UNIX-based operating system, not just a 'proof-of-concept'. The OS should be able to boot, start a userland shell, and be extensible.

CUDA Succinctly

GPUs can be used for much more than graphics processing. As opposed to a CPU, which can only run four or five threads at once, a GPU is made up of hundreds or even thousands of individual, low-powered cores, allowing it to perform thousands of concurrent operations. Because of this, GPUs can tackle large, complex problems on a much shorter time scale than CPUs. Dive into parallel programming on NVIDIA hardware with CUDA Succinctly by Chris Rose, and learn the basics of unlocking your graphics card.

This book discusses CUDA hardware and software in greater detail and covering both CUDA 5.0 and Kepler. Every CUDA developer, from the casual to the most sophisticated, will find something here of interest and immediate usefulness. Newer CUDA developers will see how the hardware processes commands and how the driver checks progress; more experienced CUDA developers will appreciate the expert coverage of topics such as the driver API and context migration, as well as the guidance on how best to structure CPU/GPU data interchange and synchronization.
