Textbook selection is often a frustrating act of compromisepedagogy, content coverage, quality of exposition, level of rigor, cost. Computer Organization and Design is the rare book that hits all the right notes across the board, without compromise. It is not only the premier computer organization textbook, it is a shining example of what all computer science textbooks could and should be.

Michael Goldweber, Xavier University

I have been using Computer Organization and Design for years, from the very first edition. This new edition is yet another outstanding improvement on an already classic text. The evolution from desktop computing to mobile computing to Big Data brings new coverage of embedded processors such as the ARM, new material on how software and hardware interact to increase performance, and cloud computing. All this without sacrificing the fundamentals.

Ed Harcourt, St. Lawrence University

To Millennials: Computer Organization and Design is the computer architecture book you should keep on your (virtual) bookshelf. The book is both old and new, because it develops venerable principlesMoores Law, abstraction, common case fast, redundancy, memory hierarchies, parallelism, and pipeliningbut illustrates them with contemporary designs.

Mark D. Hill, University of Wisconsin-Madison

The new edition of Computer Organization and Design keeps pace with advances in emerging embedded and many-core (GPU) systems, where tablets and smartphones will/are quickly becoming our new desktops. This text acknowledges these changes, but continues to provide a rich foundation of the fundamentals in computer organization and design which will be needed for the designers of hardware and software that power this new class of devices and systems.

Dave Kaeli, Northeastern University

Computer Organization and Design provides more than an introduction to computer architecture. It prepares the reader for the changes necessary to meet the ever-increasing performance needs of mobile systems and big data processing at a time that difficulties in semiconductor scaling are making all systems power constrained. In this new era for computing, hardware and software must be co-designed and system-level architecture is as critical as component-level optimizations.

Christos Kozyrakis, Stanford University

Patterson and Hennessy brilliantly address the issues in ever-changing computer hardware architectures, emphasizing on interactions among hardware and software components at various abstraction levels. By interspersing I/O and parallelism concepts with a variety of mechanisms in hardware and software throughout the book, the new edition achieves an excellent holistic presentation of computer architecture for the post-PC era. This book is an essential guide to hardware and software professionals facing energy efficiency and parallelization challenges in Tablet PC to Cloud computing.
