Introduction to Computer Architecture by UC
Computer Architecture studies the techniques used to design and implement the principle components of a computer system and the mechanisms that can be used to quantitatively evaluate the expected performance capabilities of the different design possibilities. This page covers the following topics related to Computer Architecture : Introduction, Historical Overview, Fundamentals of Computer Design, Optimizations of the Memory Hierarchy,Instruction Level Parallelism , Data Parallelism, Thread-Level Parallelism, Warehouse Computing, Domain Specific Architecture.
