Text reference for computer architecture and design presents the critical tools to analyze uniprocessor computers. It shows the practicing engineer how technology changes over time and offers the empirical constants needed for design. A baseline is established for analysis and comparisons by using the most important machines in each class: mainframe (IBM 360), mini (DEC VAX), and micro/PC (Intel 80x86). With this foundation, the coming mainline of simpler pipelined and parallel processors is shown. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
