Book Description
Users of this book will gain an understanding
of the fundamental concepts of contemporary computer architecture,
starting with a Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC). An
understanding of computer architecture needs to begin with the basics of
modern computer organization. The MIPS architecture embodies the
fundamental design principles of all contemporary RISC architectures.
This book provides an understanding of how the functional components of
modern computers are put together and how a computer works at the
machine-language level. Well-written and clearly organized, this
book covers the basics of MIPS architecture, including algorithm
development, number systems, function calls, reentrant functions,
memory-mapped I/O, exceptions and interrupts, and floating-point
instructions. For employees in the field of systems, systems development, systems analysis, and systems maintenance.
