Welcome
Welcome to the Computer Architecture and Organization: An
Integrated Approach (CAO) Web site.
This material supplements
the hardcover version of the textbook.
ARCTools Software
The ARCTools assembler and simulator support the ARC subset of the
SPARC instruction set, which is used throughout the book. Written as
Java applications for easy portability to Windows, Unix, Mac OS X, and
other platforms.
The tools support the examples used in the book, and have several new
features than prior ARCTools versions, including support for input
and output, halfword and byte data types, and several new instructions.
Classroom Slides
All of the figures and tables in Computer Architecture and Organization
are available as Powerpoint slides and also in Adobe Acrobat format. The
slides
can be downloaded by anyone.
Animations
Several interactive animations have been developed that support various
course topics. An animation covering cache memory visibly exposes
the behavior of a cache as it fills. Other animations cover number
representation, arithmetic, input/output handshake, and more. Animations are available on the
WileyPlus Website.
