Condition: New. Part of a multivolume work on the analysis of algorithms, this work provides a programmer's introduction to the MMIX, a RISC-based computer that replaces the original MIX, and describes the MMIX assembly language. It also presents material on subroutines, coroutines, and interpretive routines. Num Pages: 144 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: UM; UYA. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College).

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. ? Author: Donald E. Knuth ? Publisher: Addison-Wesley Reading, MA U.S.A. 1975 Volume 3 is concerned with information structures--the representation of information within a computer, the structural interrelations between data elements and how to work with them efficiently, describing common applications to simulation, numerical methods and software design. Truly comprehensive and meticulously written, this book (and series) is that rarest of all creatures--a work of authoritative scholarship in classical computer science, but one that can be read and used profitably by virtually all working programmers. The material in this first edition may appear dated to 21st century programmers, but advances in technology present problems which will be solved through the thought process taught in this text. (2nd Edition published in 1998.) Throughout this beautifully presented edition, Knuth incorporates hundreds of useful exercises for mastering the information presented. These range from simple problems to larger research project topics. (The book provides answers, where appropriate, at the end of the book.) The result is a text that's suitable for college or graduate-level computer science courses or individual study by programmers. Volume 3 is an indispensable part of any working programmer's library. xii + 723pp. Donald Ervin Knuth was born on January 10, 1938 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He studied mathematics as an undergraduate at Case Institute of Technology, where he also wrote software at the Computing Center. The Case faculty took the unprecedented step of awarding him a Master's degree together with the B.S. he received in 1960. After graduate studies at California Institute of Technology, he received a Ph.D. in Mathematics in 1963 and then remained on the CIT mathematics faculty. Throughout this period, he continued to be involved with software development, serving as consultant to Burroughs Corporation from 1960-1968 and as editor of Programming Languages for ACM publications from 1964-1967. He joined Stanford University as Professor of Computer Science in 1968 and was appointed to Stanford's first endowed chair in computer science nine years later. As a university professor he introduced a variety of new courses into the curriculum, notably Data Structures and Concrete Mathematics. In 1993 he became Professor Emeritus of The Art of Computer Programming. He has supervised the dissertations of 28 students and still lives with his wife on Standford campus. Knuth began in 1962 to prepare textbooks about programming techniques. His 1962 vision was to produce a reference textbook of 12 chapters - much like a cookbook - of techniques that solved programing problems. This work evolved by 1967 into a projected seven-volume series entitled The Art of Computer Programming. Volumes 1-3 first appeared in 1968, 1969, and 1973. Having revised each of these three volumes two or three times by 1997, he has continued to work on the remaining volumes. Volume 4A appeared at the beginning of 2011. Volume 4B appeared in 2022. More than one million copies have already been printed, including translation into over ten languages.
