商品描述

The fifth edition of Computer Organization and Design-winner of a 2014 Textbook Excellence Award (Texty) from The Text and Academic Authors Association-moves forward into the post-PC era with new examples, exercises, and material highlighting the emergence of mobile computing and the cloud. This generational change is emphasized and explored with updated content featuring tablet computers, cloud infrastructure, and the ARM (mobile computing devices) and x86 (cloud computing) architectures.

Because an understanding of modern hardware is essential to achieving good performance and energy efficiency, this edition adds a new concrete example, "Going Faster," used throughout the text to demonstrate extremely effective optimization techniques. Also new to this edition is discussion of the "Eight Great Ideas" of computer architecture.

As with previous editions, a MIPS processor is the core used to present the fundamentals of hardware technologies, assembly language, computer arithmetic, pipelining, memory hierarchies and I/O.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《計算機組織與設計》第五版是一本獲得2014年教科書卓越獎(Texty)的書籍,由The Text and Academic Authors Association頒發。這本書以新的例子、練習和材料,突顯了移動計算和雲計算的興起,並進入了後個人電腦時代。這一代的變革在更新的內容中得到了強調和探索,其中包括平板電腦、雲基礎設施以及ARM(移動計算設備)和x86(雲計算)架構。

由於理解現代硬件對於實現良好的性能和能源效率至關重要,本版增加了一個新的具體例子“加速”,在整個文本中用於展示極其有效的優化技術。本版還新增了關於計算機結構的“八大理念”的討論。

與以前的版本一樣,MIPS處理器是用來介紹硬件技術基礎、組合語言、計算機算術、流水線、記憶體層次結構和I/O的核心。
