First Principles Studies of Advanced Nanomaterials for Hydrogen Storage (Edition1)  (English, Paperback, Sarangi S R)

In the last decade, we have seen pathbreaking advances in processor design and specialized hardware for graphics applications and neural networks. This second-level textbook on computer architecture captures the latest developments in the field. It starts from basic undergraduate-level computer architecture concepts and takes the reader through an exciting journey of 14 chapters. The book is divided into three parts: out-of-order processor design and GPUs, multiprocessors and memory systems, and advanced topics. It specifically covers many state-of-the-art topics such as the design of high-performance GPUs and their graphics pipelines, architectures of the latest Intel, AMD and Qualcomm processors, methods to design secure chips, architectural simulation, nonvolatile memory technologies and contains a thorough treatment of hardware for all kinds of ML algorithms. It explains rigorous theoretical concepts in a very conversational style.
