Abstract

From the Publisher:design ideas embodied in many high-performance machines and stresses techniques for evaluating them. Stone develops a proper understanding of the design process by treating the various trade-offs that exist in designing choices, and shows how good designs make efficient use of technology. Features Teaches techniques for the design and analysis of high-performance machines Develops students' intuition for design by treating various tradeoffs that exist in design choices Discusses many important topics: RISC architectures, interconnection meshes, Cache coherent and multiprocessors, and Cache Memory. Includes enhanced descriptions of RISC Processors Expands material on Cache Memory Analysis Current technology in RISC with a focused look on super scalar Additional memory models and techniques for doing Cache design New porposals for coherent memory systems in System C parallel processors Both design and thought problems and problems with limiting parameters are provided
