Organized in a form that parallels an actual computer system, entire sections are devoted to principles of data, hardware, and software, with computer interconnection, clustering, and networking integrated into the material to emphasize the importance of computer and system structure. Assuming only basic knowledge, these sections build up to an in-depth understanding of each topic and how they interrelate to make up a computer system.
With this Third Edition's outstanding features, you'll be able to build a solid foundation for success on the job. All chapters have been thoroughly updated to reflect current technology.
Revised with even clearer discussions of virtual storage, the operation of memory, and modern CPU architectures. Emphasizes the computer aspects of clustering and networking, rather than the data communication aspects. Provide an understanding of underlying, non-changing basics of computers, so that you can make knowledgeable decisions about systems.
Introduce new technological concepts without overwhelming you with too much detail. Examples cover a broad spectrum of hardware and software systems, from personal computers to mainframes.
Integrates discussions of hardware and software throughout, and explores the symbiosis between them. My two biggest passions concerning computers are hardware and gaming. I want everyone to appreciate the hardware and software industry and especially the people behind them as they worked many days and nights to deliver us fast and advanced computers and entertaining and complex games.
This book is intended as a highly-practical guide for Hobbyists, Engineers and Scientists wishing to build measurement and control systems to be controlled by a local or remote Personal Computer running the Linux operating system. Both hardware and software aspects of designing typical embedded systems are covered in detail with schematics, code listings and full descriptions. Numerous examples have been designed to show clearly how straightforward it can be to create the interfaces between digital and analogue electronics, with programming techniques for creating control software for both local and remote systems.
Software developers will appreciate how a better understanding of circuits plus the freedom offered by Linux to directly control at the register level enables them to optimise related programs. There is no need to buy special equipment or expensive software tools in order to create embedded projects covered in this book. You can build such quality systems quickly using popular low-cost electronic components and free distributed or low-cost software tools.
Some knowledge of basic electronics plus the very basics of C programming only is required. With an emphasis on learning by doing, readers are encouraged by examples to program with ease; the book provides clear guidelines as to the appropriate programming techniques "on the fly". Complete and well-documented source code is provided for all projects.
If you want to learn how to quickly build Linux-based applications able to collect, process and display data on a PC from various analogue and digital sensors, how to control circuitry attached to a computer, then even how to pass data via a network or control your embedded system wirelessly and more -- then this is the book for you!
Provides information on PC maintenance and repair, covering such topics as system restore, using tech support, startup noises, a slow PC, finding lost files, Internet connections, changes in Windows Vista, Windows event logs, and computer shutdown. Contains 20 targeted exercises designed to familiarize users with all vital personal computer internal operations and prepare them to cope with any question or problem they will encounter with the personal computer, its peripherals, other hardware, and controlling the hardware through the Windows operating system.
Appendices cover a wide range of more advanced microcomputer-related topics from processor architecture to hardware and software interrupts. For those interested in acquiring a strong, working knowledge of the internal operations of today's personal computers; ideal for those in the electronics, technology, and engineering industries.
A new PC user? This quick start guide introduces you to the hardware and software components of a personal computer. The guide shows you how to use a mouse and keyboard to issue commands in the widely popular Windows XP operating system. It also shows you how to work with the Windows XP desktop, XP's file management utility, as well as how to set up and maintain your PC. There's even a section with answers to the most frequently asked questions by new XP users.
Need a Custom Solution? All of our quick reference guides can be branded or customized to meet your organization's needs. We can add your logo, corporate colors, help desk information or tailor the content to meet your requirements.
