The one instruction set computer (OISC) is the ultimate reduced
instruction set computer (RISC). In OISC, the instruction set
consists of only one instruction, and then by composition, all
other necessary instructions are synthesized. This is an approach
completely opposite to that of a complex instruction set computer
(CISC), which incorporates complex instructions as microprograms
within the processor. Computer Architecture: A Minimalist
Perspective examines computer architecture, computability theory,
and the history of computers from the perspective of one
instruction set computing - a novel approach in which the computer
supports only one, simple instruction. This bold, new paradigm
offers significant promise in biological, chemical, optical, and
molecular scale computers. Features include: - Provides a
comprehensive study of computer architecture using computability
theory as a base. - Provides a fresh perspective on computer
architecture not found in any other text. - Covers history, theory,
and practice of computer architecture from a minimalist
perspective. Includes a complete implementation of a one
instruction computer.- Includes exercises and programming
assignments. Computer Architecture: A Minimalist Perspective is
designed to meet the needs of a professional audience composed of
researchers, computer hardware engineers, software engineers
computational theorists, and systems engineers. The book is also
intended for use in upper division undergraduate students and early
graduate students studying computer architecture or embedded
systems. It is an excellent text for use as a supplement or
alternative in traditional Computer Architecture Courses, or in
courses entitled Special Topics in Computer Architecture.
