Sign in to keep track of books you’ve read and want to read.
An introductory textbook on how computers are organized and how their parts work together. It begins with the basic components of a computing system and the way programs are represented and executed, then examines the design of the central processor, including instruction sets, arithmetic, control and pipelining. Memory hierarchies, input and output, and the interaction between hardware and software are covered as well, with attention to the trade-offs designers face. Written for students of computer science and engineering, the book uses clear diagrams and examples to explain how design decisions shape a machine's speed, cost and capabilities. It is a standard route into the subject for those who want to understand what happens beneath the programs they write.
