Written by one of the foremost experts in high-performance computing and the inventor of Gustafson's law, Every Bit Counts: Posit Computing explains the foundations of a new way for computers to calculate that saves time, storage, energy, and power by packing more information into every bit than do legacy approaches.
Written by one of the foremost experts in high-performance computing and the inventor of Gustafson's law, Every Bit Counts: Posit Computing explains the foundations of a new way for computers to calculate that saves time, storage, energy, and power by packing more information into every bit than do legacy approaches.
Prof. John L. Gustafson is a pioneer in high-performance computing, known for a breakthrough in parallel processing (Gustafson's law) for which he received the inaugural Gordon Bell Prize. He is a former Director at Intel Labs and a former Senior Fellow and Chief Product Architect at AMD. He now leads efforts to replace legacy computer arithmetic with high-efficiency next-generation approaches.
