Elsevier releases landmark book on Computer Architecture as an enhanced eBook -

STM publisher Elsevier, Netherlands, has announced the release of Computer Architecture: A Quantitative Approach, 5th Edition by John L. Hennessy (President of Stanford University) and David A. Patterson (Pardee Professor of Computer Science, University of California Berkeley) as an enhanced eBook.

This interactive eBook from Inkling is adapted from the classic textbook, Computer Architecture: A Quantitative Approach, 5th Edition. It focuses on the dramatic and evolutionary developments in mobile and cloud computing. Inkling is reinventing publishing in the era of the screen/the cloud. Starting with the world's best textbooks and learning content from leading publishers, Inkling rebuilds each title from the ground up into engaging and interactive experiences.

Using their quantitative approach to design and analysis, Hennessy and Patterson explore the ways in which software and technology in the cloud are accessed by cell phones, tablets, laptops, and other mobile computing devices. The running context in each chapter is computing for personal mobile devices (PDMs) and warehouse scale computers, with examples from the real world that help to illustrate and describe the impacts of these revolutionary changes.

Computer Architecture: A Quantitative Approach, 5th Edition, enables students to explore cutting edge computing architecture – including mobile and cloud computing using innovative multimedia features.
