The versatile offspring of an extended family of multiple chip companies, today's MIPS chips are everywhere. They power everything from video games, network routers, laser printers, and set-top boxes, to high-performance workstations. This book brings together this extraordinary proliferation of form and functionality, offering embedded systems programmers and designers unique, eminently practical insights into MIPS. It covers how MIPS started, the principles at the root of the RISC revolution, the full details of the MIPS instruction set, and how these details together constitute a full operating system ready to be put to work in hundreds of ways.

Proceedings of an April 2001 symposium, addressing traditional discrete-event and continuous simulation topics, as well as topics in areas of distributed systems, network modeling, and advances in simulation methodology and practices. Material is in sections on simulation based performance analysis, network modeling and simulation, VLSI circuit simulators, simulation languages and environments, Web-based modeling and simulation, parallel and distributed simulation, and advances in simulation methodology and practices. Some subjects are queue structures for shared-memory multiprocessor systems, building a Web-based federated simulation system with Jini and XML, modeling and simulation of active networks, performance optimization of throttled time-warp simulation, and fault identification networks by passive testing. Lacks a subject index. c. Book News Inc.
