Description
In order to achieve the computing power and speed necessary for their given applications, today's computers utilize numerous microprocessors working in conjunction with central processing units (CPU) on a single integrated circuit (IC) chip. This book presents expert, state-of-the-art discussion of advanced computer architecture, covering in detail such issues as caching, instruction-level parallelism, system bottlenecks, multithreading, multiprocessing, and distributed shared memory systems.
