David Patterson Bücher

Mit der deutschen Übersetzung zur vierten Auflage des amerikanischen Klassikers Computer Organization and Design. The Hardware/Software Interface ist das Standardwerk zur Rechnerorganisation wieder auf dem neusten Stand - David A. Patterson und John L. Hennessy gewähren die gewohnten Einblicke in das Zusammenwirken von Hard- und Software, Leistungseinschätzungen und zahlreicher Rechnerkonzepte in einer Tiefe, die zusammen mit klarer Didaktik und einer eher lockeren Sprache den Erfolg dieses weltweit anerkannten Standardwerks begründen. Patterson und Hennessy achten darauf, nicht nur auf das „Wie“ der dargestellten Konzepte, sondern auch auf ihr „Warum“ einzugehen und zeigen damit Gründe für Veränderungen und neue Entwicklungen auf. Jedes der Kapitel steht für einen deutlich umrissenen Teilbereich der Rechnerorganisation und ist jeweils gleich aufgebaut: Eine Einleitung, gefolgt von immer tiefgreifenderen Grundkonzepten mit steigernder Komplexität. Darauf eine aktuelle Fallstudie, „Fallstricke und Fehlschlüsse“, Zusammenfassung und Schlussbetrachtung, historische Perspektiven und Literaturhinweise sowie Aufgaben. Umfangreiches Zusatzmaterial (Werkzeuge mit Tutorien etc.) steht auf der beiliegenden CD-ROM zur Verfügung.
