Each new print copy of Essentials of Computer Organization and Architecture includes Navigate 2 Advantage Access, which grants access to a comprehensive and interactive eBook, student practice activities and assessments, a comprehensive set of instructor resources, and learning analytics reporting tools.
The Essentials of Computer Organization and Architectural, Fifth Edition, is a best-selling text that is comprehensive enough to cover the necessary organization and architecture concepts while remaining brief enough for a single-term course. Its emphasis on real-world examples and practical applications allows students to build a "big picture" grasp of how key organizational and architectural concepts are implemented in the computing industry. The text exposes readers to the inner workings of a modern digital computer through an integrated exposition of fundamental concepts and principles, in addition to direct correlation with the ACM/IEEE recommendations for computer organization and design.
