| Summary: | Computer Architecture: A Quantitative Approach was the first book that focuses on computer architecture as a modern science. Its publication in 1990 inspired a new approach to the study and understanding of computer design. Now, the second edition explores the next generation of architectures and design techniques for the future. A basis for the modern computer architecture As the authors explain in their preface to the second edition, computer architecture itself has undergone significant changes since 1990 Concentrate on the currently predominant and emerging commercial systems, the Hennessy and Patterson have prepared entirely new chapters covering additional advanced topics.: * Advanced Channeling: A new chapter emphasizes superscalar and multiple problems. * Networking: A new chapter examines in detail the design issues for small and large shared memory multiprocessors. * Storage Systems: Expanded presentation includes coverage performance measures / O Memory: Expand the scope and design of cache memory hierarchy addresses issues of contemporary design. * Examples and Exercises: Completely revised current, architectures such as MIPS R4000, Intel 80x86 and Pentium, PowerPC, and HP PA-RISC. |
