Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
This unique and classroom-proven text provides a hands-on introduction to the design of computer systems. It depict, step by step, the arrangement of a simple but complete hypothetical compute, followed by detailed architectural features of existing computer systems as enhancements to the structure of the simple computer. This treatment integrates the four categories of digital systems architecture: logic design, computer organization, computer hardware, and computer system architecture. This third edition incorporates updates to reflect contemporary organizations and devices, modern technologies and devices in combinatorial and integrated circuits, sequential circuits and memory and storage.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Introduction: Computer system organization -- Combinational logic -- Synchronous sequential circuits -- Memory and storage -- A simple computer: organization and programming -- A simple computer: hardware design -- Input/output -- Processor and system structures -- Memory system enhancement -- Control unit enhancement -- Arithmetic/logic unit enhancement -- Advanced architectures.
