The new edition offers a balanced treatment of theory, technology architecture and software used by advanced computer systems. It presents state-of-the-art principles and techniques for designing and programming parallel, vector, and scalable computer systems. The emphasis on parallelism, scalability and programmability lends an added flavor to this text. Two new chapters have been added on Instruction Level Parallelism and Recent Advancements in Computer Architecture. - Two New Chapters on Instruction Level Parallelism & Recent Advancements in Computer Architecture Emphasizes on parallelism, scalability and programmability aspects related to computer architecture Discusses case-studies of real systems- IBM, Hitachi, Cray, Intel, UltraSparc, Blue Gene (from IBM), Cray XT series, XT5 and XMT, Fujitsu, DEC, MasPar, Tera, Stardent, etc. Issues related to instruction level parallelism, processor clock speed, and power consumption defined according to the recent developments in processor design Strong Pedagogical Features: Illustrations: 360 Solved Examples: 114 Exercise Problems: 251 Case Study: 6
