Using the C language in Linux, Windows, or embedded systems, it shows how to escape the \u003ci\u003eabstraction\u003c\/i\u003e monoculture that has turned Software Engineering into the \"sick man\" of the engineering disciplines.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe author, with a PhD in Mathematics from Princeton University, has spent decades making this work from embedded code to large user programs. After a clear Introduction couched in the language of \u003ci\u003ephysical\u003c\/i\u003e science, he details a multi-wave design process that applies to any project. His design process, built upon the historic \u003cb\u003eoccam\u003c\/b\u003e computing language, is completely understandable and robust. To enable coding in practice without reinventing the communication wheel, he wrote and here teaches the use of his C library, Connel.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book is ideal for home projects, education, and corporate and government projects of whatever size. It reduces complex projects from exponential or worse difficulty to linear. The \"pieces\" designed this way will last for decades, not needing continual maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe chapters are: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003col\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntroduction to Wide Computing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFirst Wave: Design the Major Pieces\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTools: Standard Products, Wide Pseudocode, and Connel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSecond Wave: Pseudocode the Hardware and the Data Flow\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProgramming Using Connel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWide Embedded Programming\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book is well supplied with figures, links, and code samples, and includes Preface, Acronyms and Abbreviations glossary, and Index.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fierce Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45507607068823,"sku":"9780966644012","price":2265.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780966644012.webp?v=1767167461","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/crawl-space-computing-cooperating-programs-that-dont-hide-your-data-while-they-are-working-on-it-9780966644012","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
