I would like to thank my wife, Valentina, and my children, Romina and Raffaele, for their patience during the writing of this book. I also give deep thanks and gratitude to the Packt's guys Vivek Anantharaman, who gave to me the opportunity to write this book, and Rashmi Suvarna and Juliana Nair, who supported me in finishing this book (specially to Juliana Nair who spent her nights in editing the book's layout). Many thanks to Luca Zulberti, and Chris Simmonds for their support and effort in reviewing this book so carefully (specially to Luca Zulberti who so carefully re-checked my English, the code, and all circuitries). Also, a big thanks to Mohd Riyan Khan for his patience in adding all my modifications to the final review of this book.

Finally, I cannot forget to thank my parents. Giving me my first computer when I was a child, allowed me to be doing what I do today.
