Understanding the Linux Kernel From I/O Ports to Process Management【電子書籍】[ Daniel P. Bovet ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In order to thoroughly understand what makes Linux tick and why it works so well on a wide variety of systems, you need to delve deep into the heart of the kernel. The kernel handles all interactions between the CPU and the external world, and determines which programs will share processor time, in what order. It manages limited memory so well that hundreds of processes can share the system efficiently, and expertly organizes data transfers so that the CPU isn't kept waiting any longer than necessary for the relatively slow disks.</p> <p>The third edition of <em>Understanding the Linux Kernel</em> takes you on a guided tour of the most significant data structures, algorithms, and programming tricks used in the kernel. Probing beyond superficial features, the authors offer valuable insights to people who want to know how things really work inside their machine. Important Intel-specific features are discussed. Relevant segments of code are dissected line by line. But the book covers more than just the functioning of the code; it explains the theoretical underpinnings of why Linux does things the way it does.</p> <p>This edition of the book covers Version 2.6, which has seen significant changes to nearly every kernel subsystem, particularly in the areas of memory management and block devices. The book focuses on the following topics:</p> <ul> <li>Memory management, including file buffering, process swapping, and Direct memory Access (DMA)</li> <li>The Virtual Filesystem layer and the Second and Third Extended Filesystems</li> <li>Process creation and scheduling</li> <li>Signals, interrupts, and the essential interfaces to device drivers</li> <li>Timing</li> <li>Synchronization within the kernel</li> <li>Interprocess Communication (IPC)</li> <li>Program execution</li> </ul> <p><em>Understanding the Linux Kernel</em> will acquaint you with all the inner workings of Linux, but it's more than just an academic exercise. You'll learn what conditions bring out Linux's best performance, and you'll see how it meets the challenge of providing good system response during process scheduling, file access, and memory management in a wide variety of environments. This book will help you make the most of your Linux system.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Adaptive Markets Hypothesis An Evolutionary Approach to Understanding Financial System Dynamics【電子書籍】[ Andrew W. Lo ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><em>The Adaptive Markets Hypothesis</em> (AMH) presents a formal and systematic exposition of a new narrative about financial markets that reconciles rational investor behaviour with periods of temporary financial insanity. In this narrative, intelligent but fallible investors learn from and adapt to randomly shifting environments. Financial markets may not always be efficient, but they are highly competitive, innovative, and adaptive, varying in their degree of efficiency as investor populations and the financial landscape change over time. Andrew Lo and Ruixun Zhang develop the mathematical foundations of the AMH--a simple yet surprisingly powerful set of evolutionary models of behaviour--and then apply these foundations to show how the most fundamental economic behaviours that we take for granted can arise solely through natural selection. Drawing on recent advances in cognitive neuroscience and artificial intelligence, the book also explores how our brain affects economic and financial decision making. The AMH can be applied in many contexts, ranging from designing trading strategies, to managing risk and understanding financial crises, to formulating macroprudential policies to promote financial stability. This volume is a must read for anyone who has ever been puzzled and concerned by the behaviour of financial markets and the implications for their personal wealth, and seeks to learn how best to respond to such behaviour.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Understanding the Politics of Pandemic Scares An Introduction to Global Politosomatics【電子書籍】[ Mika Aaltola ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Reactions to pandemics are unlike any other global emergency; with an emphasis on withdrawal and containment of the sight of the infected. Dealing with the historical and conceptual background of diseases in politics and international relations, this volume investigates the global political reaction to pandemic scares.</p> <p>By evaluating anxiety and the political response to pandemics as a legitimisation of the modern state and its ability to protect its citizens from infectious disease, <em>Understanding the Politics of Pandemic Scares</em> examines the connection between international health governance and the emerging Western liberal world order. The case studies, including SARS, Bird Flu and Swine Flu, provide an understanding of how the world order, global health governance and people’s bodies interact to produce scares and panics. Aaltola introduces an innovative new concept of ‘politosomatics’ based on the relationship that links individual stress, strain, and fear with global circulations of power to evaluate increasingly global bio-political environments in which pandemics exist.</p> <p>This book will be of interest to students and researchers of International Relations, Global Health, International Public Health and Global Health governance.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

On the Significance of Science and Art Exploring the Harmony of Creativity and Understanding in Society【電子書籍】[ Leo Tolstoy ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "On the Significance of Science and Art," Leo Tolstoy embarks on a profound exploration of the relationship between art and science, delving into their moral implications and societal roles. Written in a reflective and accessible style, the work critiques the prevailing paradigms of his time, asserting that true art must serve humanity and promote ethical understanding. Tolstoy draws upon his philosophical insights and literary prowess to challenge the disconnection often found between scientific advancement and artistic expression, proposing that both should ultimately aspire to elevate the human experience. Leo Tolstoy, renowned for masterpieces such as "War and Peace" and "Anna Karenina," possessed a lifelong interest in the ethical dimensions of society, which informed his later writings. His spiritual quest, fueled by a longing for meaning amidst societal turmoil, led him to question the very foundations of culture and civilization. This work reflects his evolution toward a more ascetic philosophy where he sought to reconcile the complexities of existence through simplicity, empathy, and a shared human spirit. "On the Significance of Science and Art" invites readers to ponder the intersections of creativity and discovery in their lives. A must-read for those interested in philosophy, art criticism, and social theory, Tolstoy'??s reflections prompt a reevaluation of our artistic pursuits and the responsibilities they entail in fostering a just society.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Essays in Understanding, 1930-1954 Formation, Exile, and Totalitarianism【電子書籍】[ Hannah Arendt ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Few thinkers have addressed the political horrors and ethical complexities of the twentieth century with the insight and passionate intellectual integrity of Hannah Arendt. She was irresistible drawn to the activity of understanding, in an effort to endow historic, political, and cultural events with meaning. <em>Essays in Understanding</em> assembles many of Arendt’s writings from the 1930s, 1940s, and into the 1950s. Included here are illuminating discussions of St. Augustine, existentialism, Kafka, and Kierkegaard: relatively early examinations of Nazism, responsibility and guilt, and the place of religion in the modern world: and her later investigations into the nature of totalitarianism that Arendt set down after <em>The Origins of Totalitarianism</em> was published in 1951. The body of work gathered in this volume gives us a remarkable portrait of Arendt’s developments as a thinkerーand confirms why her ideas and judgments remain as provocative and seminal today as they were when she first set them down.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Spirit-Filled Life: Restoring a Biblical Understanding and Experience of the Holy Spirit【電子書籍】[ John MacNeil, B. A. ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>I wish to urge all Christians, especially ministers of the gospel, to give The Spirit-Filled Life a prayerful reading. I feel confident it will bring them help and blessing. It will deepen the conviction of the great need and absolute duty of being filled with the Spirit. It will point out the hindrances and open up the way. It will stir up faith and hope. And I trust it will bring many people to feel that it is at the footstool of the throne ? in the absolute surrender of a new consecration ? that the blessing is to be received from God himself.</p> <p>May this book stir up all its readers, not only to seek this blessing for themselves, but also to pray earnestly that God may give the Holy Spirit in power throughout His whole church. It is when the tide comes in that every pool is filled and all the separate little pools are lost in the great ocean. As all believers who know or seek this blessing begin to pray as intensely for each other and all their brethren as for themselves, this is when the power of the Spirit will be fully known. With the prayer that this Spirit-filled book may be greatly blessed of God, I commend it to the study of His children.<br /> - Andrew Murray</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
