Based on the classic best-selling title Computer Engineering: Hardware Design (1988), this new text presents the fundamentals of hardware design and integrates state-of-the- art techniques and technologies in a smooth, easy-to-understand style with abundant use of examples to build understanding and problem-solving skills. The text provides excellent preparation for courses in contemporary computer architecture and organization that emphasize system-level concepts but present only a cursory treatment of actual hardware design.
