Product Description

Featuring a strong emphasis on the fundamentals underlying contemporary logic design using hardware description languages, synthesis, and verification, this book focuses on the ever-evolving applications of basic computer design concepts with strong connections to real-world technology. Treatment of logic design, digital system design, and computer design. Ideal for self-study by engineers and computer scientists.

From the Publisher
Based on the classic best-selling title Computer Engineering: Hardware Design (1988), this new text presents the fundamentals of hardware design and integrates state-of-the- art techniques and technologies in a smooth, easy-to-understand style with abundant use of examples to build understanding and problem-solving skills. The text provides excellent preparation for courses in contemporary computer architecture and organization that emphasize system-level concepts but present only a cursory treatment of actual hardware design. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

2.0 out of 5 stars Needs more examples!, March 11, 2003

By	Adam Pasztory "adampasz" (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Logic and Computer Design Fundamentals and Xilinx 4.2 Package (2nd Edition) (Paperback)

The other reviews said it all. This book is detailed and thorough, but is practically impossible to learn from because there are not enough examples, and there are no answers to the problems! You can get selected solutions on the website, but even with the answers, it can often be very difficult to figure out how to do the problems.

I'm on Amazon.com right now because I'm desperately seeking other books that will help me pass my Logic Design class...

1.0 out of 5 stars was the lowest I could go, November 26, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Logic and Computer Design Fundamentals and Xilinx 4.2i Package (2nd Edition) (Paperback)

This book is the worst book I ever used there are barely any examples or I should say full examples. The index doesn't match the text so you can't use it to look up key points. If you have a instructor who is going to use this book do yourself a favor and tall him/her out of it.

1.0 out of 5 stars The worst I have ever seen, July 18, 2004

By	Alireza N (Vancouver, Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Logic and Computer Design Fundamentals (Hardcover)

This book is the WORST book I ever used. There are barely any examples. The contents are written very unclearly. It takes long time to undertand the SOLVED EXAMPLE in the book, let alone the problems.
Even solved problems on the website, you find wrong solutions...
I DO NOT recommand anyone even read this book...
