ROCm Deep Dive - Definitive Reference for Developers and Engineers

Richard Johnson

Sinossi

"ROCm Deep Dive""ROCm Deep Dive" is a definitive guide for practitioners and researchers seeking a comprehensive understanding of the Radeon Open Compute (ROCm) platform. The book begins by grounding readers in ROCm's historical evolution, architectural underpinnings, and its distinctive approach to heterogeneous computing, contrasting it with prevailing standards such as CUDA and OpenCL. This foundation is expertly extended to cover practical deployment and tuning across diverse AMD hardware, ensuring developers and systems architects can confidently establish robust environments tailored for high-performance GPU computing.Delving into the technical heart of ROCm, the book unpacks its innovative execution model, advanced memory hierarchies, and the orchestration of compute kernels. Readers are guided through HIP programming, compiler toolchains, and device-specific optimizations—empowering them to port and optimize complex codebases from CUDA while leveraging ROCm's powerful profiling, debugging, and performance modeling tools. Detailed attention is paid to system integration, from kernel drivers to runtime services, highlighting design strategies for secure, efficient, and scalable multi-GPU systems in both on-premises and cloud-based deployments.The book culminates by exploring the vibrant ROCm ecosystem and its trajectory. It features in-depth coverage of core libraries, machine learning acceleration, and distributed computation, personalized for both emerging AI workloads and traditional HPC. Comprehensive chapters address operationalizing ROCm at scale—including containerization, CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, and security hardening—while a forward-looking analysis prepares readers for the next wave of innovation in heterogeneous compute standards, community-driven development, and sustainable coding practices. "ROCm Deep Dive" is an indispensable resource for mastering state-of-the-art, open source GPU computing.

City Nature - Tales of Ornery...

Martha Retallick

In the midst of ongoing news about Southwestern water scarcity, Martha Retallick sees an opportunity. For 20 years, she has been transforming her central Tucson home into an urban oasis. The secret to her success: Water harvesting. Since Retallick purchased her central Tucson home in 2004, she has incorporated two types of water harvesting – passive and active – into her landscape. Passive water harvesting is simply the act of sculpting the landscape to direct the water to where it should be – like plants – and away from where it shouldn’t be – like a home’s foundation. Retallick’s landscape incorporates three passive water harvesting features – basins, berms, and drainage swales. Collectively, these earthworks eliminate the need for landscape irrigation that’s connected to the municipal water supply, which is served by Tucson Water. According to Tucson Water, approximately 40 percent of water use in Tucson is outdoors. This includes residential uses like landscape irrigation and garden watering. Retallick’s irrigation-free landscape also includes two active water harvesting features, a 1,500-gallon cistern that collects rainwater for use in the back-yard vegetable garden, and a laundry-to-landscape greywater harvesting system that diverts wastewater from the washing machine to three fruit trees. City Nature is illustrated with more than 60 of Retallick’s color photographs, which show the wide variety of plant life on her property, the birds she shares it with, and her various do-it-herself projects, the most notable being a kinetic sculpture created from a recycled chandelier. The book also includes a list of suggested resources that encompasses books, websites, organizations, and businesses that can aid readers interested in desert gardening and landscaping, and in water conservation.

Endocrinology - The Body's...

Mike Crawford

The endocrine system is a complex network of glands and organs that produce, regulate, and secrete hormones—chemical messengers that influence nearly every physiological process in the body. These hormones control metabolism, growth and development, reproduction, mood, and overall homeostasis. Unlike the nervous system, which relies on rapid electrical signals, the endocrine system operates through the bloodstream, allowing hormones to exert long-lasting effects on target organs and tissues.
The endocrine system consists of several major glands, each responsible for specific hormone production. The hypothalamus, often referred to as the control center, regulates hormonal signals and maintains communication between the nervous and endocrine systems. It directs the pituitary gland, known as the "master gland," to release hormones that influence other endocrine organs. The thyroid gland regulates metabolism through thyroid hormones, while the parathyroid glands control calcium levels in the blood. The adrenal glands produce cortisol and adrenaline, essential for stress response and energy regulation. The pancreas, an organ with both endocrine and exocrine functions, plays a crucial role in blood sugar regulation through insulin and glucagon secretion. The gonads—testes in males and ovaries in females—produce sex hormones that govern reproductive functions and secondary sexual characteristics. Additionally, the pineal gland regulates sleep-wake cycles through melatonin production.

Technology Touchpoints -...

PhD MAC Loretta L. C. Brady

This is a story about a family coming of age at the same time as smartphones and social media; a multiracial family coming into its own as windows into social injustice opened up before our very screens; and a multi-parent multi-professional family with children living differently depending on which house and which combination of family members happen to be home. While it is a story about a family, it is really the story of technological and global changes unfolding on our doorsteps. 
 
 
 
While many revile the ascendance of smartphones and social media and the way they suck us into the vortex of cyberspace, there are cultural touchpoints that reflect deeper human and technology development patterns, patterns which we would all do well to understand, no matter whether or how we choose to engage in the ever-innovating digital frontiers. Informed by research and interviews with leaders in policy, human development, ethics, and technology, Loretta Brady helps listeners understand the complex systemic challenges and findings related to technology and human development. 
 
 
 
We do not have to hate or fear technology. It is neither friend nor foe. But understanding its impact on our daily lives is paramount to cultivating a healthier relationship both with our digital lives and our real, lived ones.

More Human - How the Power of AI...

Jacqueline Carter, Rasmus...

AI has the potential to transform leadership and the human experience of work—or to lead us into an automated and uninspiring work reality. Which one will it be? 
 
 
 
Humans have always been good at inventing tools that change the way we live and work—though not always good at adapting to those changes. Consider how the internet has given us instant access to gigabytes of data and yet has made us more distracted. Or how social media has enabled us to be more connected than ever, and yet it can also alienate or isolate us. Will the power of AI create a new era of robotic, impersonal efficiency, or will it catalyze a renaissance, redefining leadership and the world of work? 
 
 
 
So far, that question has mostly prompted a wave of anxiety about the disappearance of jobs and the loss of humanness in our work lives. But as Rasmus Hougaard and Jacqueline Carter show in this essential book, that's a very limited perspective on the impact of AI, leaving out a crucial point: AI has the power to transform leadership for the better—the key is in how leaders use it. 
 
 
 
With deep insight and rigorous research, More Human will help leaders navigate our AI-enabled future.
