Product Description
This update of the popular book on computer architecture presents design ideas embodied in many high-performance machines and stresses techniques for evaluating them. Stone develops a proper understanding of the design process by treating the various trade-offs that exist in designing choices, and shows how good designs make efficient use of technology. This new edition details the latest developments with high-performance machines; including enhanced descriptions of RISC processors. The material on Cache Memory Analysis has been expanded and additional memory models and techniques for doing Cache design have also been included.

Overall this book is a hard read for those without a pretty good Computer Architecture background. I like the examples from real research findings and the design techniques that the author provided but the material is a little dated now. This book does give you a good emphasis on design for those who are up to speed.
