Computer architecture

"Computer Architecture: A Quantitative Approach explores the ways that software and technology in the cloud are accessed by digital media, such as cell phones, computers, tablets, and other mobile devices. The book became a part of Intel"s 2012 recommended reading list for developers, and it covers the revolution of mobile computing. The text also highlights the two most important factors in architecture today: parallelism and memory hierarchy. The six chapters that this book is composed of follow a consistent framework: explanation of the ideas in each chapter; a ""crosscutting issues"" section, which presents how the concepts covered in one chapter connect with those given in other chapters; a ""putting it all together"" section that links these concepts by discussing how they are applied in real machine; and detailed examples of misunderstandings and architectural traps commonly encountered by developers and architects. The first chapter of the book includes formulas for energy, static and dynamic power, integrated circuit costs, reliability, and availability. Chapter 2 discusses memory hierarchy and includes discussions about virtual machines, SRAM and DRAM technologies, and new material on Flash memory. The third chapter covers the exploitation of instruction-level parallelism in high-performance processors, superscalar execution, dynamic scheduling and multithreading, followed by an introduction to vector architectures in the fourth chapter. Chapters 5 and 6 describe multicore processors and warehouse-scale computers (WSCs), respectively."

  • "The era of seemingly unlimited growth in processor performance is over: single chip architectures can no longer overcome the performance limitations imposed by the power they consume and the heat they generate. Today, Intel and other semiconductor firms are abandoning the single fast processor model in favor of multi-core microprocessors--chips that combine two or more processors in a single package. In the fourth edition of <EM>Computer Architecture</EM>, the authors focus on this historic shift, increasing their coverage of multiprocessors and exploring the most effective ways of achieving parallelism as the key to unlocking the power of multiple processor architectures.

  • "This fully-updated fifth edition of Computer architecture: a quantitative approach uncovers the ways in which software and technology in the "cloud" are accessed by cell phones, tablets, laptops, and other mobile computing devices. To help students understand this dramatic shift, mobile and cloud computing are woven into each core chapter, presenting them in the context of design, memory, data, and threading. The final core chapter explores the cloud as a warehouse-scale computer including models, architecture, and infrastructure considerations that drive modern systems. A robust companion site includes lecture slides, figures, additional resources, and a reference library of related material to enhance and support learning from the core text. (A cura dell'editore)."
  • "As the authors explain in their preface to the Second Edition, computer architecture itself has undergone significant change since 1990. Concentrating on currently predominant and emerging commercial systems, Hennessy and Patterson have prepared entirely new chapters covering additional advanced topics. A new chapter emphasizes superscalar and multiple issues. * Networks : a chapter examines in depth the design issues for small and large shared-memory multiprocessors. This book includes coverage of I/O performance measures; memory : caches and memory-hierarchy design addresses contemporary design issues. It is completely revised on current architectures such as MIPS R4000, Intel 80x86 and Pentium, PowerPC, and HP PA-RISC."
  • "Provides the method of quantitative analysis not only to high performance desktop machine design, but also to the design of embedded and server systems. This work adopts the MIPS 64 as the instruction set architecture. It also covers the instruction sets to include descriptions of digital signal processors, media processors, and others."@en
