The Essentials of Computer Organization Design and Architecture - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

(The Essentials of Computer Organization and Architecture provides a one-semester introduction to computet organization and architecture. Created in direct correlation to the ACM-IEEE Computing Curricula 2001 guidelines, this text exposes the inner workings of a modern digital computer through an integrated presentation of fundamental concepts and principles. With real life examples and a focus on practical application, this text encourages its readers to develop a big picture understanding of how the essential organization and architecture concepts are applied in the world of computing.
Distinctive Features - The authors write from a computer science perspective, without machine-specific terminology, motivating topics before covering them. I/O and data compression are comprehensively covered, and cache memories and paging are introduced in a clear, straightforward presentation. - The text includes an overview of various architectures, including RIM superscalar machines, instruction-level parallelism, neural networks, and distributed architectures.
