Computer Organization: Basic Processor Structure is a class-tested
textbook, based on the author's decades of teaching the topic to
undergraduate and beginning graduate students. The main questions
the book tries to answer are: how is a processor structured, and
how does the processor function, in a general-purpose computer? The
book begins with a discussion of the interaction between hardware
and software, and takes the reader through the process of getting a
program to run. It starts with creating the software, compiling and
assembling the software, loading it into memory, and running it. It
then briefly explains how executing instructions results in
operations in digit circuitry. The book next presents the
mathematical basics required in the rest of the book, particularly,
Boolean algebra, and the binary number system. The basics of
digital circuitry are discussed next, including the basics of
combinatorial circuits and sequential circuits. The bus
communication architecture, used in many computer systems, is also
explored, along with a brief discussion on interfacing with
peripheral devices. The first part of the book finishes with an
overview of the RTL level of circuitry, along with a detailed
discussion of machine language. The second half of the book covers
how to design a processor, and a relatively simple
register-implicit machine is designed. ALSU design and computer
arithmetic are discussed next, and the final two chapters discuss
micro-controlled processors and a few advanced topics.
