This book, intended for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in computer architecture, begins with a short history of digital computation. It is distinguished by its orientation towards RISC rather than CISC architecture, and is one of the few books on the market to fully address the topic of input/output and limits to speed. Bringing entire computing systems (both hardware and software) together, this text makes clear the consequences of hardware decisions on software vice versa. Also available is an instructor's manual (0-07-020454-3).
