Synopsis

This book, unlike other texts, provides an integrated picture of applied computer science. It leads students from the scratch to gradually building a basic hardware platform and a modern software hierarchy, giving them in the process, the hands-on knowledge of hardware architecture, operating systems, programming languages, compilers, data structures, algorithms and software engineering. It also demonstrates how theoretical and applied techniques taught in other courses fit into the overall picture. This much awaited book from MIT Press is now available in the low priced Eastern Economy Edition. The book's web site provides all tools and materials necessary to build the hardware and software systems described in the text, including two hundred test programs for the twelve projects. The projects and systems can be modified to meet various teaching needs. The supplied software is open-source. Table of Contents Preface. Introduction: Hello, World Below 1. Boolean Logic. 2.
