Computer architecture deals with the physical configuration, logical structure,
formats, protocols, and operational sequences for processing data, controlling
the configuration, and controlling the operations over a computer. It also
encompasses word lengths, instruction codes, and the interrelationships among
the main parts of a computer or group of computers. This two-volume set offers a
comprehensive coverage of the field of computer organization and architecture.
