Computer Architecture and Organization

Rate this book
The third edition of Computer Architecture and Organization features a comprehensive updating of the material-especially case studies, worked examples, and problem sets-while retaining the book's time-proven emphasis on basic prinicples. Reflecting the dramatic changes in computer technology that have taken place over the last decade, the treatment of performance-related topics such as pipelines, caches, and RISC's has been expanded. Many examples and end-of-chapter problems have also been added.

This along with Computer Organization and Architecture by William Stallings, are excellent resources for understanding not only the mechanics but the context of modern computing.
