Description

Unlock a deeper understanding of how hardware and software interact to drive computational power. As computer performance continues to grow, understanding the underlying limits and structures becomes essential for anyone working in modern computing. This textbook from Cambridge University Press provides the necessary foundation for software architects, developers, and data scientists to harness performance for future applications. Designed specifically for upper-level undergraduates, the text moves beyond simple theory to provide a high-level basis for reasoning about computer systems. It explores the fundamental pillars of performance, such as how size scaling impacts speed and how implicit parallelism functions within modern architectures. By mastering these core concepts, students and professionals can better navigate the complexities of modern computing and write more efficient code for high-performance environments.

Key Features

Covers four key pillars of computer performance to build a strong conceptual foundation for students and professionals.

Explains how size scaling drives performance through the concept that small is fast.

Provides insight into implicit parallelism to help users understand how modern systems handle simultaneous computations.

Tailored for upper-level undergraduate students looking to master computer science architecture and microprocessors.

Helps software architects and data scientists understand the fundamental structure of computer performance to optimize future applications.
