Veljko Milutinovic Livres

Focusing on the complexities of electronic business systems, this book explores how designers navigate tradeoffs among varying technologies and user requirements. It emphasizes the importance of aligning the designer's and user's perspectives to define optimal solutions. Building on his previous works about microprocessor design and system integration, Professor Milutinovic expands his analysis to the rapidly evolving landscape of Internet commerce, making it a significant culmination of his trilogy on computer systems design.

This unique text/reference describes an exciting and novel approach to supercomputing in the DataFlow paradigm. The major advantages and applications of this approach are clearly described, and a detailed explanation of the programming model is provided using simple yet effective examples. The work is developed from a series of lecture courses taught by the authors in more than 40 universities across more than 20 countries, and from research carried out by Maxeler Technologies, Inc. Topics and features: presents a thorough introduction to DataFlow supercomputing for big data problems; reviews the latest research on the DataFlow architecture and its applications; introduces a new method for the rapid handling of real-world challenges involving large datasets; provides a case study on the use of the new approach to accelerate the Cooley-Tukey algorithm on a DataFlow machine; includes a step-by-step guide to the web-based integrated development environment WebIDE.
