The field of digital computer architecture has grown explosively in the past two decades.
Through a steady stream of experimental research, tool-building efforts, and theoretical
studies, the design of an instruction-set architecture, once considered an art, has been
transformed into one of the most quantitative branches of...
With the reinvigoration of neural networks in the 2000s, deep learning has become an extremely active area of research, one that’s paving the way for modern machine learning. In this practical book, author Nikhil Buduma provides examples and clear explanations to guide you through major concepts of this complicated field.
For a comprehensive, easy-to-swallow guide to OpenCL Programming, this book is out on its own. That's because it teaches through examples and covers everything from parallel sorting to optimization in simple stages.
Overview
Learn about all of the OpenCL Architecture and major APIs.
Computers are at the heart of most activities nowadays. A processor is the central component of
a computer, but nowadays, we can find processors embedded in many other components, such as
game consoles, consumer electronic devices and cars, just to mention a few.
This lecture presents a thorough study of the microarchitecture...
The most visible use of computers and software is processing information for human
consumption. We use them to write books (like this one), search for information
on the web, communicate via email, and keep track of financial data. The vast
majority of computers in use, however, are much less visible. They run the engine,
brakes,...
Whether you’re deploying applications on premise or in the cloud, this cookbook provides developers, operators, and IT professionals with more than 130 proven recipes for working with Docker.
With these practical solutions, experienced developers with no previous knowledge of Docker will be able to package and...
Automated testing is a cornerstone of agile development. An effective testing strategy will deliver new functionality more aggressively, accelerate user feedback, and improve quality. However, for many developers, creating effective automated tests is a unique and unfamiliar challenge.
In May 1993, several German automotive manufacturers — BMW, Bosch, Daimler-Chrysler, Opel, Siemens, VW — agreed to collaborate on the specification for a common, real-time distributed operating system tailored for automotive applications. The project was coordinated by the University of Karlsruhe in Germany and was to be called...
Increasingly, parallel processing is being seen as the only cost-effective method for the fast solution of computationally large and data-intensive problems. The emergence of inexpensive parallel computers such as commodity desktop multiprocessors and clusters of workstations or PCs has made such parallel methods generally...
This book explores recent advances in blockchain technology and its impact on Industry 4.0 via advanced technologies. It provides an in-depth analysis of the step by step evolution of Industry 4.0 and blockchain technologies for creating the next-generation, secure, decentralized, distributed and trusted industry environment and...
