Surviving the Design of Microprocessor and Multimicroprocessor Systems: Lessons Learned

John Wiley & Sons, 2000

Design of microprocessor and/or multimicroprocessor systems represents a continuous struggle; success (if achieved) lasts infinitesimally long and disappears forever, unless a new struggle (with unpredictable results) starts immediately. In other words, it is a continuous sur-vival process, which is the main motto of this book.

OpenGL ES Game Development (Premier Press Game Development)

Course Technology PTR, 2004

You say you want a revolution? Well, sometimes the smallest things can create the biggest changes. OpenGL ES originated that way—in a modest 3Dlabs project in 2001 that sought to define a standardized subset of OpenGL for a range of embedded systems. It soon became clear that there was a widespread industry desire for a small...

Cloud Computing with the Windows Azure Platform (Wrox Programmer to Programmer)

Wrox Press, 2009

Cloud computing became a hot topic in mid-2008 and, by mid-2009, had achieved top buzzword status. As proof of its popularity, a mid-August 2009 search on Bing.com for ‘‘cloud computing’’ returned 92 million hits. Hardly a week goes by that doesn’t include at least one cloud computing conference somewhere around the...

Imperial College Press, 2006

This unique book describes the science and technology of silicon carbide (SiC) microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), from the creation of SiC material to the formation of final system, through various expert contributions by several leading key figures in the field. The book contains high-quality up-to-date scientific information concerning SiC...

Capital Instincts: Life as an Entrepreneur, Financier, and Athlete

John Wiley & Sons, 2003

For over three decades, Thomas W. Weisel has been one of the leading figures of the financial scene that blossomed along with Silicon Valley, becoming an integral part of its phenomenal success. Many pioneers have contributed to the changing nature of U.S. business, but only a few have emerged as real leaders in American entrepreneurialism. Thom...

Analog BiCMOS Design: Practices and Pitfalls

CRC Press, 1999

This book presents practical methods and pitfalls encountered in the design of biCMOS integrated circuits. It is intended as a reference for design engineers and as a text for an introductory course on analog integrated circuit design for engineering seniors and graduate students. Abroad range of topics are covered with the intent of giving new...

Network Processors: Architecture, Programming, and Implementation (Systems on Silicon)

Morgan Kaufmann, 2008

Network processors are the basic building blocks of today's high-speed, high-demand, quality-oriented communication networks. Designing and implementing network processors requires a new programming paradigm and an in-depth understanding of network processing requirements. This book leads the reader through the requirements and the...

Novel Photoactive Materials

Mdpi AG, 2019

Photoactivity represents the ability of a material, generally speaking a semiconductor, to become active when interacting with light. It can be declined in many ways, and several functionalities arising from this behavior of materials can be exploited, all leading to positive repercussions on our environment. There are several...

What is What in the Nanoworld: A Handbook on Nanoscience and Nanotechnology

John Wiley & Sons, 2008

More than 1,400 entries, from a few sentences to a page in length. The second, completely revised and enlarged edition of this introductory reference handbook summarizes the terms and definitions, most important phenomena, and regulations occurring in the physics, chemistry, technology, and application of nanostructures. A representative collection...

Mac OS X Internals: A Systems Approach

Addison Wesley, 2006

Mac OS X was released in March 2001, but many components, such as Mach and BSD, are considerably older. Understanding the design, implementation, and workings of Mac OS X requires examination of several technologies that differ in their age, origins, philosophies, and roles.

Component Database Systems (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Data Management Systems)

Morgan Kaufmann, 2000

I recently came across a fascinating book, Regional Advantage—Culture and Competition in Silicon Valley and Route 128.1 The author compares the rise and dominance of Silicon Valley during the 1970s and 1980s with the slow decline of Route 128 during the 1980s and hypothesizes that the contrasts in development were mainly due to the large...

Theoretical Aspects of Local Search (Monographs in Theoretical Computer Science. An EATCS Series)

Springer, 2007

In 1958 Croes published a twenty page article in Operations Research describing a new method to handle traveling salesman problems based on the iterative use of simple edge-exchange mechanisms. This article can be seen as the seminal paper on local search, reporting for the first time the success of simple neighborhood-based iteration methods when...
