The sixth edition of this classic textbook from Hennessy and Patterson, winners of the 2017 ACM A.M. Turing Award recognizing contributions of lasting and major technical importance to the computing field, is fully revised with the latest developments in processor and system architecture. The text now features examples from the RISC V (RISC Five) instruction set architecture, a modern RISC instruction set developed and designed to be a free and openly adoptable standard. It also includes a new chapter on domain specific architectures and an updated chapter on warehouse scale computing that features the first public information on Google's newest WSC. True to its original mission of demystifying computer architecture, this edition continues the longstanding tradition of focusing on areas where the most exciting computing innovation is happening, while always keeping an emphasis on good engineering design. Winner of a 2019 Textbook Excellence Award (Texty) from the Textbook and Academic Authors Association Includes a new chapter on domain specific architectures, explaining how they are the only path forward for improved performance and energy efficiency given the end of Moore’s Law and Dennard scaling Features the first publication of several DSAs from industry Features extensive updates to the chapter on warehouse scale computing, with the first public information on the newest Google WSC Offers updates to other chapters including new material dealing with the use of stacked DRAM; data on the performance of new NVIDIA Pascal GPU vs. new AVX 512 Intel Skylake CPU; and extensive additions to content covering multicore architecture and organization Includes "Putting It All Together" sections near the end of every chapter, providing real world technology examples that demonstrate the principles covered in each chapter Includes review appendices in the printed text and additional reference appendices available online Includes updated and improved case studies and exercises ACM named John L. Hennessy and David A. Patterson, recipients of the 2017 ACM A.M. Turing Award for pioneering a systematic, quantitative approach to the design and evaluation of computer architectures with enduring impact on the microprocessor industry. Review: The best computer architecture textbook - The bible of computer architecture. This book is used by practically all academic institutions around the globe, and for a good reason. The structure is great, and the writing and explanations are excellent. It covers topics from pipelines and hazards, up to modern topics such as GPUs (without forgetting to cover important topics such as virtual memory, cache, out-of-order execution, branch prediction, and so on). Unquestionably, this is the best book to study computer architecture. Review: Amazing book for advanced computer architecture - I am a student of Software Engineering and I graduated top of the class thanks to this book. The authors of this book have done an amazing job writing it. They take you to the incredible world of computer architecture and introduce you to the key ideas and concepts which make computer so powerful. The book is very detailed and leaves no loose ends. I love that fact that there authors provide concrete evidence for all of their statements (backed up by years of research and experiments). The book is beginner-friendly but I recommend reading the Computer Organization and Design by the same authors first because many things will be more clear and easier to understand. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #896,621 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #29 in Computer Hardware Design #109 in Computer Hardware Design & Architecture #3,364 in Computer Science (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 217 Reviews | ## Images ![Computer Architecture: A Quantitative Approach (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Computer Architecture and Design) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71zrCDfb73S.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best computer architecture textbook *by I***N on April 10, 2025* The bible of computer architecture.
