Packt Modern Computer Architecture and Organization: Learn x86, ARM, and RISC-V architectures and the design of smartphones, PCs, and cloud servers

A great, "in depth" look at central processing unit (cpu) design. This book is aimed more at the Academic student in their first/second year. This book is well written and explains the voncepts and ideas in a " easy-to-follow" style. This book can be used by, not just students, but anybody eith a keen interest in Modern Computer Architecture, Design, and Organization. Well worth a slot in any computer science students' or computer enthusiasts book shelf.

This book is structured very well, it allows you to read a particular section with out having to know much about other sections. Everything is explained in detail and with simple examples and illustrations to help you visualize the concepts. After reading this book, you’ll definitely have a strong understanding of what is going on at the hardware level of computers. It will also provide you with tips and insights on how to write code that takes advantage of the architecture in a modern computer to optimize performance.

Truly a gold mine of information if you're interested in how computers do their computing. Really hard to read if you're new to the subject like myself because of all the specialized vocabulary (each thing has it's own name and reading 5 pages will take you 30 minutes) but if you make the effort there's a lot of very interesting content to be discovered. Just one thing : there could have been a lot more sketches and diagrams (it's almost all written in sentences) to ease the understanding. I recommend to watch videos on the same subject in parallel of reading the book to clarify everything. Anyway, thank you very much to sir Ledin for the work and for sharing his knowledge.

Book has good quality
