Pressestimmen
"The new coverage of multiprocessors and parallelism lives up to the standards of this well-written classic. It provides well-motivated, gentle introductions to the new topics, as well as many details and examples drawn from curent hardware." - John Greiner, Rice University "Patterson and Hennessy not only improve the pedagogy of the traditional material on pipelined processors and memory hierarchies, but also greatly expand the multiprocessor coverage to include emerging multicore processors and GPUs. Computer Organization and Design sets a new benchmark against which all other architecture books must be compared." - David A. Wood, University of Wisconsin-Madison
Kurzbeschreibung
This Fourth Revised Edition of "Computer Organization and Design" includes a complete set of updated and new exercises, along with improvements and changes suggested by instructors and students. Focusing on the revolutionary change taking place in industry today - the switch from uniprocessor to multicore microprocessors - this classic textbook has a modern and up-to-date focus on parallelism in all its forms. Examples highlighting multicore and GPU processor designs are supported with performance and benchmarking data. As with previous editions, a MIPS processor is the core used to present the fundamentals of hardware technologies, assembly language, computer arithmetic, pipelining, memory hierarchies and I/O. Sections on the ARM and x86 architectures are also included. The companion CD provides a toolkit of simulators and compilers along with tutorials for using them, as well as advanced content for further study and a search utility for finding content on the CD and in the printed text. For the convenience of readers who have purchased an ebook edition or who may have misplaced the CD-ROM, all CD content is available as a download at our associated website. This Revised Fourth Edition of "Computer Organization and Design" has been updated with new exercises and improvements throughout suggested by instructors teaching from the book. It covers the revolutionary change from sequential to parallel computing, with a chapter on parallelism and sections in every chapter highlighting parallel hardware and software topics. It includes an appendix by the Chief Scientist and the Director of Architecture of NVIDIA covering the emergence and importance of the modern GPU, describing in detail for the first time the highly parallel, highly multithreaded multiprocessor optimized for visual computing.

Format:Taschenbuch
Ich studiere Informatik an der TU-Darmstadt und habe mir das Buch für meine technische Vorlesung gekauft. Da ich erst im zweiten Semester bin, hatte ich etwas Bedenken ob ich die komplexeren Sachverhalte verstehen würde.
Die Bedenken haben sich aber relativ schnell gelegt, da das Buch wirklich sehr detailliert erklärt. Selbst schwierigere Themen wie der Aufbau des Prozessors, pipelining, forwarding usw. sind extrem genau erklärt, sodass am Ende absolut keine Fragen offen bleiben.
Die Tatsache, dass das Buch in englisch geschrieben ist machte mir auch keine größeren Schwierigkeiten...nicht zuletzt weil ich der Meinung bin, dass jeder, der sich ernsthaft für Informatik interessiert, über entsprechende Englischkentnisse verfügen sollte.
Der einzige Kritikpunkt ist, dass den ausgiebigen Übungen keine Lösungen beiliegen. Da jedoch auch zwischen den Kapiteln ausführliche Beispiele zum besseren Verständnis ausgeführt werden, werte ich das als nicht ganz so tragisch.
Alles in allem kann ich das Buch nur wärmstens empfehlen, für mich die absolute Referenz für den Einstieg in die Rechnerarchitektur.

A great book for many audiences
8. Dezember 2008
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Iown all 4 editions of this book, plus the 4 published editions (and one preliminary edition) of the related "Computer Architecture - A Quantitative Approach".
Why?
Because, every time one of these comes out, they become clear standards. The last 20 years have been a period of rapid changes in computing. Fortunately Patterson and Hennessy somehow find time to update their books about every 5 years, not only adding new material, but also improving the pedagogy and readability for different audiences.
This book offers a thoughtful combination of printed and electronic information that potential authors should study, as this combination has evolved across the various iterations.
I especially appreciate the reader's guide (page xvii), which highlights different paths through the book for different audiences. This is very important in books that cover material comprehensively, as not everyone needs to read everything, especially the first time through.
This edition is well worth having, even if one already has the earlier ones. The additional material on multiprocessors is especially crucial, given that uniprocessor performance growth has slowed, and multiprocessor software remains challenging.
I spent many years trying to get people to write software at the highest level possible, but the otherwise-desirable trend in that direction can have one unfortunate side-effect. Some younger software designers have little or no experience with computer architecture and hardware/software interface, and it is all too easy to create performance and scalability surprises that could easily be avoided.
I'd strongly recommend this book to avoid such surprises. Even if a programmer writes in very high level languages, some knowledge of the lower levels and their pitfalls goes a long way.
I used to recommend the other book to people like technology journalists, venture capitalists, and financial analysts, i.e., people who are rarely computer professionals, but need to understand computer technology and its trends. Many such have been surprised to find the book was useful to them.
However, as Patterson and Hennessy have reworked the balance of material between the two books, the more introductory material is located here, whereas the other book is more appropriate for computer designers or software people working close to the hardware.
Hence, the next time someone needs to understand computer technology, well-explained by experts, this is the book I'd recommend.

The chapter contents were decent, but the problems are horrible
28. August 2010
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
First I will mention that I had no problem with the actual content presented in the chapters. This was a textbook for my Computer Architecture class, and the figures and presentation were fine. I really like the "pitfalls & fallacies" section of each chapter, as well as the brief sections looking at how real processors apply ideas and looking at the histories of the processors. (Go ARM!)
Now, as I mentioned this was a textbook for my class, and we were often assigned problems at the end of each chapter to do as homework. These problems are the sole reason I give this book a two star. There are so many problems that are very ambiguous as to what they are asking for. Also, I don't mind having multiple parts to a problem, but they went overboard with it. You have one problem with an A and B part, then the next with A-F that you need to perform for both A and B parts of the problem before. It would be MUCH more straightforward just to make all of these sections their own individual program and it would clear up a lot of the confusion that my whole class experienced.

The best book I have used in computer engineering at UCLA
22. Oktober 2010
Format:Taschenbuch
I'm a fourth year UCLA student studying computer engineering, and by far this has been my favorite text. It appeals both to the programmer and circuits guy in me, as well as the DIYer hardware enthusiast. It covers much of the essential computer architecture theory, but also is well supplemented with real world examples. It emphasizes design tradeoffs that real computer architects must solve. The only thing I don't like about it is the omission of some content from the hard text, but those items are provided via CD.
