Описание: What we show in this book is endless live performance. Architecture is connected with music, opera and people, and then art is extended. Theatres, concert halls and opera houses belong to the main building tasks of our times. New-built, renovated and innovative soundscaping, all architects are exploring and aiming to establish a new relationship between art, people and buildings for contemporary life. In this book, we select different performance architectures from the world; some of them are set up first, and others reborn with stories and bright future. All of them are cityscapes in their cities.

Описание: This book takes software developers through database systems while covering the traditional database system concepts from a systems perspective. The chapters are organized according to the components of a database, starting from low-level disk access and ending at the query planner.
Описание: This book discusses the parametric modeling, performance evaluation, design optimization and comparative study of the high-speed, parallel pick-and-place robots. The book is of interest to researchers, R&D engineers and graduate students in industrial parallel robotics who wish to learn the core principles, methods, algorithms, and applications.
Описание: Clarity + Alignment = PERFORMANCE One of the hardest things to achieve in business is getting everyone on your team aligned to the same plan. Picture your business as a rowing team. Most have some people casually rowing, others our of sync, and even some rowing in the complete opposite direction. In Relentless Implementation, you will learn a tried and tested system that will get every person on your team vigorously rowing in the same direction. This operating system will allow you to achieve maximum performance from your team while creating a Working Together culture that will help provide clarity to all functions of your business. In this book you will learn: - to implement the operating system Alan Mulally famously used as CEO at Ford Motor Company and Boeing Commercial Airplanes - 11 Practices and Principles of Working Together - to create a Creating Value Roadmap - to set up and run a weekly Business Plan Review meeting Relentless Implementation shares a tested and proven operating system that creates organizational clarity, alignment and improved performance so you have One Team working One Plan for One Goal.

This book focuses on the theoretical and practical aspects of parallel programming systems for today's high performance multi-core processors and discusses the efficient implementation of key algorithms needed to implement parallel programming models. Such implementations need to take into account the specific architectural aspects of the underlying computer architecture and the features offered by the execution environment.
This book briefly reviews key concepts of modern computer architecture, focusing particularly on the performance of parallel codes as well as the relevant concepts in parallel programming models. The book then turns towards the fundamental algorithms used to implement the parallel programming models and discusses how they interact with modern processors.
While the book will focus on the general mechanisms, we will mostly use the Intel processor architecture to exemplify the implementation concepts discussed but will present other processor architectures where appropriate. All algorithms and concepts are discussed in an easy to understand way with many illustrative examples, figures, and source code fragments.
The target audience of the book is students in Computer Science who are studying compiler construction, parallel programming, or programming systems. Software developers who have an interest in the core algorithms used to implement a parallel runtime system, or who need to educate themselves for projects that require the algorithms and concepts discussed in this book will also benefit from reading it.
Описание: Thisbook focuses on the design and testing of large-scale, distributed signalprocessing systems, with a special emphasis on systems architecture, toolingand best practices.
