The arrival and popularity of multi-core processors has sparked a renewed interest in the development of parallel programs. Similarly, the availability of low-cost microprocessors and sensors has generated a great interest in embedded real-time programs. This book provides students and programmers whose backgrounds are in traditional sequential programming with the opportunity to expand their capabilities into parallel, embedded, real-time and distributed computing. It also addresses the theoretical foundation of real-time scheduling analysis, focusing on theory that is useful for actual applications. Written by award-winning educators at a level suitable for undergraduates and beginning graduate students, this book is the first truly entry-level textbook in the subject. Complete examples allow readers to understand the context in which a new concept is used, and enable them to build and run the examples, make changes, and observe the results.

We are surrounded by products that have minds of their own. Computing power, in the form of microcontrollers, microprocessors, sensors, and data storage chips, has become so cheap that manufacturers are building connectivity and embedded intelligence into all types of consumer goods. These 'smart products' are fundamentally changing both the competitive landscape for business and the daily lives of consumers. This book analyzes the evolution of smart products to help managers understand the impact of embedded product intelligence on corporate strategy, consumer value, and industry competition. It describes four different ecosystem strategies for designing and launching smart products: the control-focused Hegemon, the standards-focused Federator, the high growth and brand-focused Charismatic Leader, and the disruptive industry Transformer. This ecosystem model is then applied to smart products in the automotive, wireless, energy, residential, and health industries. The book concludes wi

Taiwan at the Core: Strategic Partner in Global Semiconductor Landscape and Realignment offers a clear, authoritative, and timely guide to understanding how semiconductors have become the strategic backbone of the modern global economy—and why Taiwan sits at its very center. As chips power everything from artificial intelligence and advanced computing to electric vehicles and defense systems, this book explains how Taiwan’s dominance—commanding over 78% of the global foundry market—has made the island an indispensable anchor of the world’s digital infrastructure.Written from a policy-oriented and global perspective, the book examines the ongoing “semiconductor strategic realignment,” unpacking Taiwan’s core position in the global semiconductor ecosystem; the revitalization efforts of United States, Japan and Europe; China’s aggressive expansion in mature-node manufacturing amidst advanced-node constraints; South Korea’s pivotal dominance in AI-driven High Bandwidth Memory (HBM); and th
