Overview

Introduction to Computer Theory Daniel Cohen An easily comprehensible text for required undergraduate courses in computer theory. Thoroughly covers the three fundamental areas of computer theory—formal languages, automata theory, and Turing machines. It is an imaginative and pedagogically strong attempt to remove the unnecessary mathematical complications associated with the study of these subjects. The author substitutes graphic representation for mathematical proofs. Includes a large selection of well-thought-out problems at the end of each chapter. 1985 (0 471-80271-9) The Principles of Computer Organization With Assembly Language Programming for the PDP 11 G. Michael Schneider Designed for a one-semester course in computer organization, this text introduces the major large-scale functional components of the computer—memory ALU, input-output, and processor—how each works, and their integration into a complete computer system. In addition to covering the general, machine-independent concepts of computer organization, it introduces a specific type of computer system—the PDP 11. Most textbooks treat either general computer organizational concepts or a specific type of system. This book does both. 1985 (0 471-88552-5) The Design and Description of Computer Architecture Subrata Dasgupta The first systematic, extensive study of computer architecture as a design discipline. It focuses on the use of formal symbolic description as a basis for the specification and verification of computer architectures. This one-of-a-kind volume presents an in-depth study of high-level architectural and microprogramming languages, the characteristics and measurement of computational environments, and the identification and use of styles in architecture design and implementation. 1984 (0 471-89616-0)
