Computer Organization and the MC68000

Overview

Presenting topics in a complete and detailed fashion from the ground up, this new text offers a thorough, yet brief, introduction to the entire body of fundamental material in computer architecture and assembly language. It discusses computer organization at the gate level, the register level, the system level, and the network level; and explores assembly language programming in terms of computer system basics. For computer programmers.

Editorial Reviews

Booknews
A textbook that provides a thorough, yet brief, introduction to both computer organization and assembly language programming, effectively reducing two separate courses into one. The two topics are harmonized by the use of a particular architecture, the MC68000, as a model for the hardware aspects of the text as well as the programming component. Assumes knowledge of at least one modern high-level language (preferably Pascal or C). Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
