Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Embedded Systems: ARM Programming and Optimization, Second Edition combines an exploration of the ARM architecture with an examination of the facilities offered by the Linux operating system to explain how various features of program design can influence processor performance. The book demonstrates methods by which a programmer can optimize program code in a way that does not impact its behavior but instead improves its performance. Several applications, including image transformations, fractal generation, image convolution, computer vision tasks, and now machine learning are used to describe and demonstrate these methods. From this, the reader will gain insight into computer architecture and application design, as well as practical knowledge in embedded software design for modern embedded systems. The second edition has been expanded to include more topics of interest to upper level undergraduate courses in embedded systems.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Nuclear Waste Management Facilities examines best practices and recent trends in improving nuclear safety and reducing the negative environmental impacts of nuclear waste. With a strong emphasis on regulatory requirements, this reference is essential for designing new integrated waste management practices, using lessons learned from historical and current practices. Divided into three key parts, Part One introduces the reader to the safety and environmental impacts of the nuclear industry and the historical and current nuclear waste management practices. Part Two reviews recent technological and methodological approaches to enhancing safety, as well as reducing the environmental impacts of both individual processes and integrated facilities. Topics covered include spent fuel and radioactive waste management, legacy waste management, remediation, and decommissioning. Part Three considers some prospective for the safe management of waste from innovative reactors, and wastes that contain emerging contaminants, including waste recycling opportunities. Nuclear Waste Management Facilities is a crucial tool needed to implement the safest and most environmentally considerate best practices within nuclear waste management facilities.
