This new text covers everything today’s students will need to go from almost no computer-specific knowledge to understanding the design of computer systems, from their fundamental hardware components and mathematical abstractions to their use in solving real-world problems. Covering all the major themes of 21st century computer engineering, including logic and computers, software, and circuits, instructors will find that this book provides a single coherent reference to guide students through their course.
- Provides a simple, principled introduction to core concepts in computer engineering, including logic and computers, software, and circuits
- Steps students through concepts to understand how the components of computers come together to create complete computer systems
- Includes a variety of teaching ancillaries to assist instructors in adopting this new approach to introducing computer engineering to their students, such as PPT Lecture slides, Instructor’s Manual, Labs and project materials, Image bank, and a YouTube Embedded Systems Channel hosted by the author
Introductory computer engineering courses taught either freshman or sophomore year, University computer courses aimed at non computer science or engineering majors
