The Architecture of Computer – Irv Englander – 4th Edition

This newly revised text provides a gentle approach to introduce MIS students to fundamental computer hardware, systems software, and data concepts. As in previous editions, the goal of this book is to provide the fundamentals of computer architecture which are essential to the workplace survival of Information Systems graduates.

This text provides a careful, in depth, non-engineering introduction to the inner workings of modern computer systems. New advances have been built into the new edition in the areas of operating system design and computer interconnection.
