New Book: CPU and GPU Internals Explained via Rust
rsasaki0109 · x · 2026-08-18
A new book titled "Rust de Hajimeru CPU to GPU" aims to bridge the gap for web developers understanding low-level computing hardware through Rust.
Key Topics:
- CPU Internals: Covers machine code, registers, memory hierarchy, pipelines, SIMD, and multi-core architectures.
- Rust Optimization: Explores how the Rust compiler translates code to machine language and the reality of "zero-cost abstractions".
- GPU Practice: Contrasts CPU and GPU designs and demonstrates driving GPU computation using wgpu in Rust.
The book is structured into a Basics section (fast path to understanding performance mechanisms) and an Advanced section (deep dives into memory, async, kernel optimization, etc.).
