Fundamental principles that will keep you on the cutting edge! Most computer architecture books are just too technical and complex. Focusing on specific technology, they often bypass the basics and are outdated as quickly as technology advances. Now, Irv Englander's gentle-but-thorough introduction to computer architecture and systems software provides just the right amount of technical detail you'll need to make successful decisions in your future career. The text covers all the basics in an accessible, easy-to-understand way. Organized in a form that parallels an actual computer system, entire sections are devoted to principles of data, hardware, and software, with computer interconnection, clustering, and networking integrated into the material to emphasize the importance of computer and system structure. Assuming only basic knowledge, these sections build up to an in-depth understanding of each topic and how they interrelate to make up a computer system. With this Third Edition's outstanding features, you'll be able to build a solid foundation for success on the job. <ul>
<li>All chapters have been thoroughly updated to reflect current technology.</li> <li>Revised with even clearer discussions of virtual storage, the operation of memory, and modern CPU architectures.</li> <li>Programming examples are written in a C++/Java-like pseudocode.</li> <li>Emphasizes the computer aspects of clustering and networking, rather than the data communication aspects.</li> <li>Provide an understanding of underlying, non-changing basics of computers, so that you can make knowledgeable decisions about systems.</li> <li>Introduce new technological concepts without overwhelming you with too much detail.</li> <li>Examples cover a broad spectrum of hardware and software systems, from personal computers to mainframes.</li> <li>Integrates discussions of hardware and software throughout, and explores the symbiosis between them.</li> </ul>

John Wiley&Sons, Inc.

The Architecture of Computer Hardware, Systems Software and Networking is designed help students majoring in information technology (IT) and information systems (IS) understand the structure and operation of computers and computer-based devices. Requiring only basic computer skills, this accessible textbook introduces the basic principles of system architecture and explores current technological practices and trends using clear, easy-to-understand language. Throughout the text, numerous relatable examples, subject-specific illustrations, and in-depth case studies reinforce key learning points and show students how important concepts are applied in the real world. This fully-updated sixth edition features a wealth of new and revised content that reflects today's technological landscape. Organized into five parts, the book first explains the role of the computer in information systems and provides an overview of its components. Subsequent sections discuss the representation of data in the computer, hardware architecture and operational concepts, the basics of computer networking, system software and operating systems, and various interconnected systems and components. Students are introduced to the material using ideas already familiar to them, allowing them to gradually build upon what they have learned without being overwhelmed and develop a deeper knowledge of computer architecture.
