商品描述
This easy-to-read textbook provides an introduction to computer architecture, focusing on the essential aspects of hardware that programmers need to know. Written from a programmer's point of view, this book covers the three key aspects of architecture: processors, physical and virtual memories, and input-output (I/O) systems.
This third edition is updated in view of advances in the field. Most students only have experience with high-level programming languages, and almost no experience tinkering with electronics and hardware. As such, this text is revised to follow a top-down approach, moving from discussions on how a compiler transforms a source program into binary code and data, to explanations of how a computer represents data and code in binary.
Additional chapters cover parallelism and data pipelining, assessing the performance of computer systems, and the important topic of power and energy consumption. Exclusive to this third edition, a new chapter explains multicore processors and how coherence hardware provides a consistent view of the values in memory even though each core has its own cache.
Suitable for a one-semester undergraduate course, this clear, concise, and easy-to-read textbook offers an ideal introduction to computer architecture for students studying computer programming.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本易於閱讀的教科書提供了計算機架構的介紹，重點關注程式設計師需要了解的硬體的基本方面。本書從程式設計師的角度出發，涵蓋了架構的三個關鍵方面：處理器、物理和虛擬記憶體，以及輸入輸出（I/O）系統。
考慮到該領域的進展，這本第三版已經更新。大多數學生只有使用高級程式語言的經驗，幾乎沒有與電子和硬體進行實驗的經驗。因此，本書修訂為採用自上而下的方法，從討論編譯器如何將源代碼轉換為二進制代碼和數據，到解釋計算機如何以二進制表示數據和代碼。
附加章節涵蓋了並行性和數據流水線、評估計算機系統的性能以及重要的功耗和能源消耗主題。本書第三版獨有的一個新章節解釋了多核處理器以及一致性硬體如何提供對記憶體中的值的一致視圖，即使每個核心都有自己的緩存。
適用於一學期的本科課程，這本清晰、簡潔且易於閱讀的教科書為學習計算機編程的學生提供了理想的計算機架構入門。
