Features: This book introduces the design of computer system architecture from the perspectives of system structure designers, assembly programmers, and logic designers. Starting with an overview of computer system architecture design, it explains the relationship between machines and machine language, introduces representative and easily understandable models such as the SRC model and the RTN functional description language for logic design, and discusses related logical design issues. Next, the author uses examples to illustrate the differences between CISC and RISC, delves into the interface relationship between instruction sets and hardware, and introduces the design of CPU pipelining, multi-instruction issue computers, microcode control units, and arithmetic logic units. Subsequently, the author provides a detailed introduction to the hierarchical structure design of memory and discusses the machine input/output system and peripheral devices. Finally, the author explores some topics related to computer interconnection. Additionally, the book includes a dedicated appendix on digital logic, written in an accessible and insightful manner, which is expected to be highly beneficial for readers. This book can serve as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students in computer science, electronics, and related fields, covering microcomputer principles, system architecture, and computer design. It will also be of great value to professionals and researchers in related fields.
