Most anglers are well aware of the popular game fish that inhabit
the Northeast, including the largemouth bass, the rainbow trout,
and the yellow perch. But the region's inland waters boast a much
broader array of fish than first meets the eye (or hook).
Computer Organization and Design: The Hardware/Software Interface, Sixth Edition, the leading, award-winning textbook from Patterson and Hennessy used by more than 40,000 students per year, continues to present the most comprehensive and readable introduction to this core computer science topic. Improvements to this new release include new sections in each chapter on Domain Specific Architectures (DSA) and updates on all real-world examples that keep it fresh and relevant for a new generation of students.
Computer Architecture: A Quantitative Approach, Sixth Edition has been considered essential reading by instructors, students and practitioners of computer design for over 20 years. The sixth edition of this classic textbook from Hennessy and Patterson, winners of the 2017 ACM A.M. Turing Award recognizing contributions of lasting and major technical importance to the computing field, is fully revised with the latest developments in processor and system architecture. The text now features examples from the RISC-V (RISC Five) instruction set architecture, a modern RISC instruction set developed and designed to be a free and openly adoptable standard. It also includes a new chapter on domain-specific architectures and an updated chapter on warehouse-scale computing that features the first public information on Google's newest WSC. True to its original mission of demystifying computer architecture, this edition continues the longstanding tradition of focusing on areas where the most exciting computing innovation is happening, while always keeping an emphasis on good engineering design.
Computer Organization and Design RISC-V Edition: The Hardware Software Interface, Second Edition, the award-winning textbook from Patterson and Hennessy that is used by more than 40,000 students per year, continues to present the most comprehensive and readable introduction to this core computer science topic. This version of the book features the RISC-V open source instruction set architecture, the first open source architecture designed for use in modern computing environments such as cloud computing, mobile devices, and other embedded systems. Readers will enjoy an online companion website that provides advanced content for further study, appendices, glossary, references, links to software tools, and more.
The new ARM Edition of Computer Organization and Design features a subset of the ARMv8-A architecture, which is used to present the fundamentals of hardware technologies, assembly language, computer arithmetic, pipelining, memory hierarchies, and I/O. With the post-PC era now upon us, Computer Organization and Design moves forward to explore this generational change with examples, exercises, and material highlighting the emergence of mobile computing and the Cloud. Updated content featuring tablet computers, Cloud infrastructure, and the ARM (mobile computing devices) and x86 (cloud computing) architectures is included. An online companion Web site provides links to a free version of the DS-5 Community Edition (a free professional quality tool chain developed by ARM), as well as additional advanced content for further study, appendices, glossary, references, and recommended reading.
von C. Gordon Bell Es ist mir cine Freudc und Ehre, das Vorwort flir dieses richtungwcisendc Buch zu schreiben. Die Autoren sind Uber die bekannten Bcitrage von Thomas zum Calculus und Samuelson zur Wirtschaft weit hinausgegangcn. Sic haben ein Standardwcrk fUr Rcchncr- architcktur und -entwurf geschaffen. Zum Nutzen der lnfonllatik ermutigc ich die Ycricger, die vielen BUcher zu diesem Thema zurlickzuziehen, damit schnell cine neue Generation von lnformatikern und Systemingcnieuren herangebildet werden kann. Dieses Buch bcab- sichtigt nicht, die komplcxen und fehlerhaften Mikroprozessoren der Halbleiterfirmen zu bcscitigen, doch es wird die Ausbildung von lngenicurcn beschleunigen, die hcsscrc entwcrl"en konnen. Das Buch bietet die kritischen Werkzcuge zur Analyse von Einprozessorcomputcrn. Es zeigt dem praktisch tiitigen Ingcnieur, wie sich die Technologic mit dcr Zeit vcrandert, und lielcrt die flir den Entwurf nOlwendigen cmpirischcn Konstanten. Leitender Gesichtspunkt beim Entwurf ist die Funktionalitat anstclle der stereotypen Aharheitung von Roulinen, mit denen ein uncrfahrcner Entwerfer versucht, cinen cinfachen Entwurf durchzufiihren. Die Autoren schufen cine Ausgangsbasis rur Analysen und Ycrgleiche, indcm sic die wichtigsten Maschinen jeder Klasse hehandeln: Mainframe (IBM 360), Mini (DEC V AX) und MikrolPC (Intel 80x86). Darauf aulhaucnd zeigcn sic die kommenden Hauptentwick- lungslinien einfachcr Pipeline- und Parallclprozessoren. Dicsc ncuen Technologicn werden als Varianten ihrcs in didaktischcr Hinsichl nlitzlichcn, aher auch lals ichlid' rcalisierharcn Prozcssors (DLX) vorgestellt. Die Autorcn betonen Technologieunahh ingigkeit durch Mcssung der pro Takt ausgefiihrten Arheit (Parallclvcrarbcitung) und der Arheit pro Zciteinheit (Effcktivitat und Gesamldaucr). Diesc MClhoden solltcn auch die Qualiliit der Forschung zu neuen Architekluren und wr Parallclverarheitung wrhessern.
Contemporary Security Management, Fourth Edition, identifies and condenses into clear language the principal functions and responsibilities for security professionals in supervisory and managerial positions. Managers will learn to understand the mission of the corporate security department and how the mission intersects with the missions of other departments. The book assists managers with the critical interactions they will have with decision makers at all levels of an organization, keeping them aware of the many corporate rules, business laws, and protocols of the industry in which the corporation operates. Coverage includes the latest trends in ethics, interviewing, liability, and security-related standards. The book provides concise information on understanding budgeting, acquisition of capital equipment, employee performance rating, delegated authority, project management, counseling, and hiring. Productivity, protection of corporate assets, and monitoring of contract services and guard force operations are also detailed, as well as how to build quality relationships with leaders of external organizations, such as police, fire and emergency response agencies, and the Department of Homeland Security.
