Because of computing’s history, the pedagogy of computer architecture has been aimed at future computer designers and engineers. However, a growing number of data scientists, engineers who are not computer engineers, and even the majority of computer scientists (i.e. artificial intelligence and more) see computing as an intellectual tool. These scientists and engineers need an understanding of computer architecture for insights into how hardware enables, shapes, and limits performance. They need an understanding of computer architecture that allows them to reason about performance today and scaling into the future. It is for them that I have undertaken this book. Computer architecture is the science and engineering that underpins the design of computer hardware. It is both the design of the software–hardware interface that defines portability and correct execution for software, and also the organizational understanding for hardware that effectively exploits advancing microelectronics technology for increased computing performance. For this reason, computer organization is another term used for computer architecture. Computer Architecture for Scientists covers four key pillars of computer performance and imparts a high-level basis for reasoning with and understanding these concepts: Small is fast – how size scaling drives performance; Implicit parallelism – how a sequential program can be executed faster with parallelism; Dynamic locality – skirting physical limits, by arranging data in a smaller space; Parallelism – increasing performance with teams of workers.

Crack the MIcroprocossor and Microcontroller Interview. Book gives you a complete idea about the Microcontroller and Microprocessor. It starts from a very basic concept like a number system, then explains the digital circuit. This book is a complete set of interview questions and answers with plenty of screenshots. Book takes you on a journey to Microprocessor 8085, 8086, PIC, Peripheral Devices and Interfacing, AVR ATmega32, Interfacing of Input/Output Device. Book also covers the descriptive questions, multiple-choice questions along with answers which are asked during an interview.
