Discover all the security risks and exploits that can threaten iOS-based mobile devices
iOS is Apple's mobile operating system for the iPhone and iPad. With the introduction of iOS5, many security issues have come to light. This book explains and discusses them all. The award-winning author team, experts in Mac and iOS...
For most of computing history, we benefited from exponential increases in performance
of scalar processors. That has come to an end. We are now at the dawn of
the heterogeneous parallel computing era. With all applications being power-sensitive
and all computing systems being power-limited, from mobile to cloud, future computing...
It’s been a long time since we went through the dramatic transition from Mac OS 9 to
the more complicated and graphically rich world of OS X. Many of you reading this
have never known a Mac interface that wasn’t actually OS X (pronounce that “oh-ess
ten” to sound cool). The biggest change...
CNC controllers, working as a brain for manufacturing automation, are high valueadded
products accounting for over 30% of the price of machine tools. CNC technology
is generally considered as a measure of the level of manufacturing technology of
a nation, and is currently led by major advanced countries such as USA, Japan, and...
The long-awaited iOS 6 SDK (Software Development Kit) is finally out, and we need
to learn about all the great features that this release offers us. Apple did a great job
adding new features to the SDK and, of course, to iOS itself. iOS 6 is much more stable
than the previous versions of iOS, as you would expect....
The hybrid/heterogeneous nature of future microprocessors and large high-performance computing systems will result in a reliance on two major types of components: multicore/manycore central processing units and special purpose hardware/massively parallel accelerators. While these technologies have numerous benefits, they also pose substantial...
The Linux TCP/IP Stack: Networking for Embedded Systems provides an in-depth guide to implementing and using the Linux TCP/IP stack in embedded systems projects. It begins with a general overview of TCP/IP networking, with background information on applicable networking standards. From there, it details the TCP/IP implementation in Linux 2.6...
