Computer Organization and Design, ARM Edition: The Hardware/Software Interface by David A. Patterson and John L. Hennessy. Overview of Solution Resources
If you are studying for an exam, most solution sets focus on these "Eight Great Ideas" featured in the ARM Edition: Design for Moore’s Law : Planning for the rapid growth of transistor density. Use Abstraction to Simplify Design : Hiding lower-level details to manage complexity. Make the Common Case Fast : Optimizing for the most frequent tasks. Performance via Parallelism : Doing multiple things at once. Performance via Pipelining : Overlapping the execution of instructions. Performance via Prediction : Guessing outcomes to keep the pipeline moving. Hierarchy of Memories : Using different speeds/sizes of memory (Caches, DRAM). Dependability via Redundancy : Including extra components to prevent failure. Reference PDF Materials
Are you currently working on a or a certain type of problem, like cache mapping or ARM assembly ?
