Praise from the Reviewers:. "The practicality of the subject in a real-world situation distinguishes this book from othersavailable on the market."--Professor Behrouz Far, University of Calgary. "This book could replace the computer organization texts now in use that every CS and CpEstudent must take. ... It is much needed, well written, and thoughtful."--Professor Larry Bernstein, Stevens Institute of Technology. A distinctive, educational text onsoftware performance and scalability. This is the first book to take a quantitative approach to the subject of software.
