PCI Express System Architecture or Keyboarding Formatting Essentials Lessons 1 60

PCI Express System Architecture

Author: Ravi Budruk

PCI Express is the third-generation Peripheral Component Interconnect technology for a wide range of systems and peripheral devices. Incorporating recent advances in high-speed, point-to-point interconnects, PCI Express provides significantly higher performance, reliability, and enhanced capabilities -- at a lower cost -- than the previous PCI and PCI-X standards. Therefore, anyone working on next-generation PC systems, BIOS and device driver development, and peripheral device design will need to have a thorough understanding of PCI Express.

PCI Express System Architecture provides an in-depth description and comprehensive reference to the PCI Express standard. The book contains information needed for design, verification, and test, as well as background information essential for writing low-level BIOS and device drivers. In addition, it offers valuable insight into the technology's evolution and cutting-edge features.

Following an overview of the PCI Express architecture, the book moves on to cover transaction protocols, the physical/electrical layer, power management, configuration, and more.

Keyboarding & Formatting Essentials, Lessons 1-60 (with CD-ROM)

Author: Susie VanHuss

KEYBOARDING ESSENTIALS, 2nd Edition: KEYBOARDING & FORMATTING, LESSONS 1-60, will teach new key learning and basic document formatting using the functions of Microsoft Word 2007! Lessons 1-25 are focused on teaching the alphabetic keyboard, top row numbers and symbols of the keyboard, and the numeric keyboard with the use of Keyboarding Pro 5 Deluxe. The remaining lessons will focus on traditional skill building, language arts, and document formatting. Word processing skills are isolated and introduced prior to document formatting lessons, while proofreading skills are reinforced within the documents. The document formatting lessons are devoted solely to documents and teach no additional word processing functions so users can focus on proper formatting techniques.
