Computer Organization and Design

Computer Organization and Design: The Hardware Software Interface: RISC-V Edition features the RISC-V open source instruction set architecture, the first such architecture designed to be used in modern computing environments, such as cloud computing, mobile devices, and other embedded systems. With the post-PC era now upon us, the book includes relevant examples, exercises, and material highlighting the emergence of mobile computing and the cloud. Updated content features tablet computers, cloud infrastructure, and the ARM (mobile computing devices) and x86 (cloud computing) architectures. An online companion website provides advanced content for further study, appendices, a glossary, references, and recommended reading.
