This book was released on 2018-08-29 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains how the binary works and how it is used by computers to represent information including positive and negative integers, characters and real numbers. It explains the logical and bitwise operations used to manipulate information and perform arithmetic. We also briefly look at how computers store this information in memory and secondary storage, and how it can be transmitted between computers. Topics covered include: INTRODUCING NUMBER BASES AND BINARY CONVERTING FROM BINARY TO DENARY AND VICE-VERSA How to Convert a Binary Number to Denary How to Convert a Denary Number to Binary HOW COMPUTERS GROUP BINARY DIGITS A Closer Look at Bytes A Closer Look at Words * Word alignment, word alignment and packing, byte ordering and endianness Addresses BOOLEAN OPERATIONS AND LOGIC GATES Fundamentals of Boolean Algebra * NOT, AND, OR, XOR, NAND, NOR, NXOR Combining Logic Gates * NOT, AND, OR, XOR, NOR using NAND logic Logical Versus Bitwise Operations Using Bitwise Operations to Set, Clear, Flip or Test Bits * Setting bits, inverting bits, clearing bits, testing bits ADDING AND SUBTRACTING IN BINARY Adding Binary Integers * The column addition method of adding denary numbers and adding binary numbers, implementing binary addition using logic gates Subtracting Binary Integers * The column subtraction methods of subtracting denary numbers and subtracting binary numbers, implementing binary subtraction using logic gates SHIFT OPERATIONS Left Shift Right Shift Circular Shifts MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISION IN BINARY Multiplication * Multiplying by a power of 2, column multiplication, Russian peasant multiplication algorithm, multiplication in hardware Division * Dividing by a power of 2, denary long division, binary long division, algorithm for binary long division, division in hardware REPRESENTING CHARACTERS AND STRINGS OF CHARACTERS Representing Individual Characters * ASCII, extended ASCIIs, BCDIC and other early character encodings, EBCDIC, Unicode Representing Strings of Characters * Terminated strings, length-prefixed strings, other string representations REPRESENTING TEXT AND GRAPHICS ON SCREEN Text Mode Displays Bitmap Displays PARITY CHECKING What is a Parity Bit Even and Odd Parity Advantages, Disadvantages and Limitations of Using Parity Checking Parity's Use in RAID Storage Devices Unused Parity Bits SIGNED INTEGERS Offset Binary Signed Magnitude Representation One's Complement Two's Complement Other Representations of Signed Numbers * Base -2, signed-digit representation REAL NUMBERS Fixed Point Representation Floating Point Representation Rational Data Type Logarithmic Number Systems DENARY ENCODINGS AND DECIMAL DATA TYPES Why Use Denary Representations of Real Numbers?

Download or read book The New Global Ecosystem in Advanced Computing written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-11-23 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computing and information and communications technology (ICT) has dramatically changed how we work and live, has had profound effects on nearly every sector of society, has transformed whole industries, and is a key component of U.S. global leadership. A fundamental driver of advances in computing and ICT has been the fact that the single-processor performance has, until recently, been steadily and dramatically increasing year over years, based on a combination of architectural techniques, semiconductor advances, and software improvements. Users, developers, and innovators were able to depend on those increases, translating that performance into numerous technological innovations and creating successive generations of ever more rich and diverse products, software services, and applications that had profound effects across all sectors of society. However, we can no longer depend on those extraordinary advances in single-processor performance continuing. This slowdown in the growth of single-processor computing performance has its roots in fundamental physics and engineering constraints-multiple technological barriers have converged to pose deep research challenges, and the consequences of this shift are deep and profound for computing and for the sectors of the economy that depend on and assume, implicitly or explicitly, ever-increasing performance. From a technology standpoint, these challenges have led to heterogeneous multicore chips and a shift to alternate innovation axes that include, but are not limited to, improving chip performance, mobile devices, and cloud services. As these technical shifts reshape the computing industry, with global consequences, the United States must be prepared to exploit new opportunities and to deal with technical challenges. The New Global Ecosystem in Advanced Computing: Implications for U.S. Competitiveness and National Security outlines the technical challenges, describe the global research landscape, and explore implications for competition and national security.

Book excerpt: Bioinformatics, the use of computers to address biological questions, has become an essential tool in biological research. It is one of the critical keys needed to unlock the information encoded in the flood of data generated by genome, protein structure, transcriptome and proteome research. Bioinformatics: Genes, Proteins & Computers covers both the more traditional approaches to bioinformatics, including gene and protein sequence analysis and structure prediction, and more recent technologies such as datamining of transcriptomic and proteomic data to provide insights on cellular mechanisms and the causes of disease.
