To answer this question, we have to get behind the abstractions of programming languages and look at how a computer really works. This book examines and explains a variety of scientific programming models (programming models relevant to scientists) with an emphasis on how programming constructs map to different parts of the computer's architecture. Two themes emerge: program speed and program modularity. Throughout this book, the premise is to "get under the hood," and the discussion is tied to specific programs. The book digs into linkers, compilers, operating systems, and computer architecture to understand how the different parts of the computer interact with programs. It begins with a review of C/C++ and explanations of how libraries, linkers, and Makefiles work. Programming models covered include Pthreads, OpenMP, MPI, TCP/IP, and CUDA.The emphasis on how computers work leads the reader into computer architecture and occasionally into the operating system kernel. The operating system studied is Linux, the preferred platform for scientific computing. Linux is also open source, which allows users to peer into its inner workings. A brief appendix provides a useful table of machines used to time programs. The book's website (https://github.com/divakarvi/bk-spca) has all the programs described in the book as well as a link to the html text. 517 $aScientific and Engineering Computation 606 $aMobile & handheld device programming / Apps programming$2bicssc 606 $aComputer science$2bicssc 606 $aInformation architecture$2bicssc 615 7$aMobile & handheld device programming / Apps programming 615 7$aComputer science 615 7$aInformation architecture 676 $a005.1 700 $aViswanath$b Divakar$4aut$0930373 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910306634203321 996 $aScientific Programming and Computer Architecture$92092763 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05519nam 2200685Ia 450 001 9910821061203321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-283-40728-0 010 $a9786613407283 010 $a1-4443-4016-6 010 $a1-4443-4018-2 035 $a(CKB)3460000000003431 035 $a(EBL)700658 035 $a(OCoLC)768771261 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000507249 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11955302 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000507249 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10546321 035 $a(PQKB)11239828 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC700658 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4043668 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL700658 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10510368 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL340728 035 $a(EXLCZ)993460000000003431 100 $a20101123d2011 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 12$aA Practical guide to the NEC3 engineering and construction contract /$fMichael Rowlinson 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aChichester, West Sussex, UK $cWiley-Blackwell$d2011 215 $a1 online resource (321 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a1-4443-3688-6 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $aA Practical Guide to the NEC3 Engineering and Construction Contract; Contents; 1 Introduction; 1.1 General; 1.2 Mechanics not law; 1.3 A simple formula for understanding a contract; 1.4 Mandatory or discretionary; 1.5 Conditions precedent; 1.6 Note on use of upper case in key words and phrases; 2 Background to the NECECC; 2.1 The background: First edition; 2.2 The second edition; 2.3 The third edition; 2.4 Endorsement of NEC3 by the Office of Government Commerce; 2.5 General philosophy: Aims and objectives; 2.6 Flexibility; 2.7 Clarity and simplicity; 2.8 Stimulus to good management 327 $a2.9 Other characteristics3 The Options: An Overview; 3.1 General arrangement of the ECC; 3.2 Other documents referred to; 3.3 Contract Data; 3.4 The published documents; 3.5 Main Options: General outline; 4 'Spirit of Mutual Trust and Cooperation'; 4.1 Introduction; 4.2 Core clause 10.1; 4.3 What does it mean?; 4.4 Practical issues; 5 The Cast of Characters; 5.1 Introduction; 5.2 The Employer; 5.3 The Project Manager; 5.4 The Supervisor; 5.5 The Contractor; 5.6 The Adjudicator; 5.7 Subcontractors; 5.8 'Others'; 5.9 Designers; 5.10 CDM Coordinator; 5.11 Principal Contractor 327 $a5.12 Practical issues6 Communications, Early Warnings and other General Matters; 6.1 Introduction; 6.2 Communications: The clause; 6.3 Communications: Practical issues; 6.4 Early warnings: The clause; 6.5 Early warnings: Practical issues; 6.6 Other matters: The clauses; 6.7 Other matters: Practical issues; 7 The Contractor's Main Responsibilities; 7.1 Introduction; 7.2 Providing the Works; 7.3 Contractor's design; 7.4 Other matters; 7.5 Practical issues; 8 Subcontracting; 8.1 Introduction; 8.2 Definition of a Subcontractor; 8.3 The core clauses; 8.4 Provisions in the Main Options 327 $a8.5 Practical issues8.6 Options for forms of subcontract in the NEC3 family; 9 Testing and Defects; 9.1 Introduction; 9.2 Tests and inspections; 9.3 What is a Defect?; 9.4 The Defect procedure; 9.5 The Defects Certificate; 9.6 Uncorrected Defects; 9.7 Practical issues; 10 Title; 10.1 Introduction; 10.2 The core clauses; 10.3 Practical issues; 11 Risks and Insurance; 11.1 Introduction; 11.2 The core clauses; 11.3 Practical issues; 12 Time; 12.1 Introduction; 12.2 The programme: Contents; 12.3 The programme: Submitting, accepting and revising; 12.4 The programme: Practical issues 327 $a12.5 Starting and finishing12.6 Other matters; 12.7 Secondary Options related to Time; 12.8 Practical issues; 13 Payment; 13.1 Introduction; 13.2 The payment process; 13.3 Payments in multiple currencies; 13.4 The amount due and the Price for Work Done to Date; 13.5 Supporting documents and records; 13.6 The Contractor's share; 13.7 The Contractor's share: Practical issues; 13.8 Special provisions for the UK; 13.9 Related Secondary Options; 13.10 Practical issues; 14 The Schedules of Cost Components; 14.1 Introduction; 14.2 The Schedule of Cost Components 327 $a14.3 The Shorter Schedule of Cost Components 330 $aLaunched in 1991, the New Engineering Contract (NEC) has become one of the UK's leading standard forms of contract for major construction and civil engineering projects. Currently in the third edition, popularly known as NEC 3, it is a process based construction contract embodying project management best practice, and thus the basic philosophy behind the contract is different to the more adversarial principles and approach of other standard construction contracts. Written as a practical guide to the application of the procedures contained in NEC 3, this book will aid users in the transition 517 3 $aNEC3 Engineering and Construction Contract 606 $aCivil engineering contracts$zGreat Britain 606 $aConstruction contracts$zGreat Britain 615 0$aCivil engineering contracts 615 0$aConstruction contracts 676 $a343.41/07862 686 $aLAW019000$2bisacsh 700 $aRowlinson$b Michael$0115550 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821061203321 996 $aA Practical guide to the NEC3 engineering and construction contract$93997983 997 $aUNINA
