Computer Architecture: Software Aspects, Coding, and Hardware

Posted by GaQuay under Software Development

Product Description
With the new developments in computer architecture, fairly recent publications can quickly become outdated. Computer Architecture: Software Aspects, Coding, and Hardware takes a modern approach. This comprehensive, practical text provides that critical understanding of a central processor by clearly detailing fundamentals, and cutting edge design features. With its balanced software/hardware perspective and its description of Pentium processors, the book allows readers to acquire practical PC software experience. The text presents a foundation-level set of ideas, design concepts, and applications that fully meet the requirements of computer organization and architecture courses. The book features a “bottom up” computer design approach, based upon the author’s thirty years experience in both academe and industry. By combining computer engineering with electrical engineering, the author describes how logic circuits are designed in a CPU.

Posted by GaQuay under Software Development

Book Description
Presenting valuable information for professionals involved in maintaining and securing Microsoft systems and applications, Software Deployment, Updating, and Patching provides the skills necessary to develop a comprehensive strategy for updating and securing Microsoft systems with the latest packs and patches. It demonstrates how to perform inventories of IT assets, identify old versions as well as new updates and patches, test compatibility, target deployment, and evaluate management technologies. It also shows readers how to create and implement their own deployment plans with recovery and remediation options and illustrates how to recognize potential vulnerabilities.

What Every Engineer Should Know about Software Engineering

Posted by GaQuay under Software Development

Book Description
Do you · Use a computer to perform analysis or simulations in your daily work? · Write short scripts or record macros to perform repetitive tasks? · Need to integrate off-the-shelf software into your systems or require multiple applications to work together? · Find yourself spending too much time working the kinks out of your code? · Work with software engineers on a regular basis but have difficulty communicating or collaborating? If any of these sound familiar, then you may need a quick primer in the principles of software engineering. Nearly every engineer, regardless of field, will need to develop some form of software during their career. Without exposure to the challenges, processes, and limitations of software engineering, developing software can be a burdensome and inefficient chore. In What Every Engineer Should Know about Software Engineering, Phillip Laplante introduces the profession of software engineering along with a practical approach to understanding, designing, and building sound software based on solid principles.

Problem-Solving Methods: Understanding, Description, Development, and Reuse (Lecture Notes in Computer Science) (Kindle Edition)

Posted by bandr under General Programming, Software Development

Product Description
This book provides a theory, a formal language, and a practical methodology for the specification, use, and reuse of problem-solving methods. The framework developed by the author characterizes knowledge-based systems as a particular type of software architecture where the applications are developed by integrating generic task specifications, problem solving methods, and domain models: this approach turns knowledge engineering into a software engineering discipline. All in all, this work, as an applicable theory of knowledge engineering, consolidates research work done during several decades.
