Computer Systems Design and Architecture
Interrelating the different viewpoints of the logic designer, the assembly language programmer, and the computer architect, the authors present a thorough examination of computer systems and the latest developments in microprocessors, pipelining, memory hierarchy, networks and the Internet.
Introducing Systems Design
In this new edition of Introducing Systems Design, (the companion text by the same author to Introducing Systems Analysis) the focus is on the design of computer systems. The author describes the skills necessary to be a successful systems designer and addresses the fundamental models that such a designer should follow (such as data flow diagrams and entity-relationship models). This edition retains the hypothetical case study of the first edition (a course bookings system) to explore crucial design issues. New coverage includes discussions of object oriented systems design and Rapid Application Development (RAD), including the impact of Computer Aided Software Engineering (CASE). Use of the integral case study and exercises at the end of each chapter provide the practical element essential to effective teaching of systems design.

The next generation of computer system designers will be less concerned about details of processors and memories, and more concerned about the elements of a system tailored to particular applications. These designers will have a fundamental knowledge of processors and other elements in the system, but the success of their design will depend on the skills in making system-level tradeoffs that optimize the cost, performance and other attributes to meet application requirements. This book provides a new treatment of computer system design, particularly for System-on-Chip (SOC), which addresses the issues mentioned above. It begins with a global introduction, from the high-level view to the lowest common denominator (the chip itself), then moves on to the three main building blocks of an SOC (processor, memory, and interconnect). Next is an overview of what makes SOC unique (its customization ability and the applications that drive it). The final chapter presents future challenges for system design and SOC possibilities.
