DESCRIPTION:
Relevant Computer Science topics such as models of computation and formal grammars are addressed, and their practical value explained.Low-Level Programming teaches programmers to:Freely write in assembly languageUnderstand the programming model of Intel 64Write maintainable and robust code in C11Follow the compilation process and decipher assembly listingsDebug errors in compiled assembly codeUse appropriate models of computation to greatly reduce program complexityWrite performance-critical codeComprehend the impact of a weak memory model in multi-threaded applications. Low-Level Programming&
Currently, he is doing research in verified C refactorings as part of his PhD thesis and formalization of Bulk Synchronous Parallelism library in C at IMT Atlantique in Nantes, France. His main interests are low-level programming, programming language theory, and type theory.. He studied at Saint Petersburg Academic University and received his master degree from ITMO University. Igor Zhirkov teaches his
Code examples and exercises are included along with the best code practices. Optimization capabilities and limits of modern compilers are examined, enabling you to balance between program readability and performance. Learn Intel 64 assembly language and architecture, become proficient in C, and understand how the programs are compiled and executed down to machine instructions, enabling you to write robust, high-performance code.Low-Level Programming explains Intel 64 architecture as the result of von Neumann architecture evolution. The book teaches the latest version of t
