Product Description
by Anthony J. Dos J. Reis (Author)
Constructing a Microprogrammed Computer (CMC) will provide you with a detailed examination of a complete computer system. It covers number systems, digital circuits, microprogramming, and programming in machine language, assembly language, C, and C++. Its companion volume, C and C++ Under the Hood (CUH), further examines C and C++ and culminates with an introduction to system programming in C (implementing machine interpreters, assemblers, linkers, and file display programs).
One distinguishing characteristic of CMC is that it will give you plenty to do. Thus, you will learn not only by reading but also by doing. For example, CMC not only examines and evaluates four instruction set architectures, but also will guide you through their microcode implementations
