Book Description
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. - Winner of a 2019 Textbook Excellence Award (Texty) from the Textbook and Academic Authors Association - Includes a new chapter on domain-specific architectures, explaining how they are the only path forward for improved performance and energy efficiency given the end of Moore's Law and Dennard scaling - Features the first publication of several DSAs from industry - Features extensive updates to the chapter on warehouse-scale computing, with the first public information on the newest Google WSC - Offers updates to other chapters including new material dealing with the use of stacked DRAM; data on the performance of new NVIDIA Pascal GPU vs. new AVX-512 Intel Skylake CPU; and extensive additions to content covering multicore architecture and organization - Includes "Putting It All Together" sections near the end of every chapter, providing real-world technology examples that demonstrate the principles covered in each chapter - Includes review appendices in the printed text and additional reference appendices available online - Includes updated and improved case studies and exercises - ACM named John L. Hennessy and David A. Patterson, recipients of the 2017 ACM A.M. Turing Award for pioneering a systematic, quantitative approach to the design and evaluation of computer architectures with enduring impact on the microprocessor industry
Attaining High Performance Communications
Author: Ada GavrilovskaPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1420093134
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 440
Book Description
No single solution applied at one particular layer can help applications solve all performance-related issues with communication services. Instead, this book shows that a coordinated effort is needed among the layers. It covers many different types of technologies and layers across the stack, from the architectural features of the hardware, through the protocols and their implementation in operating system kernels, to the manner in which application services and middleware are using underlying platforms. The book also describes key developments in high-end platforms, high performance interconnection fabrics and communication libraries, and multi- and many-core systems.

Seventh IEEE International Conference on Engineering of Complex Computer Systems
Author: Sten F. AndlerPublisher:
ISBN: 9780769511597
Category : Computer engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
Annotation Contributions are arranged into 12 sessions, which include real-time issues; a panel discussion focusing on issues with Web site software; formal issues; industrial experiences; a panel addressing dependability in industrial systems and risk management of complex systems; architecture; testing; and analysis and modeling. The table of contents lists three keynotes speeches, but only one of them is presented (F. Dahlgren's discussion of the design challenges involved in future mobile phones). The other two consist only of a brief abstract and several paragraphs about the authors, curiously omitting the text of the keynote speech itself. Contributors primarily consist of researchers from Europe, Asia, and North America. Lacks a subject index. c. Book News Inc.
