This book is a reference text on advanced microprocessors and is intended to meet the needs of practising system designers (concerned with microprocessor hardware and software), engineering, product and marketing managers using microprocessors in new products, and students of electronic engineering or computer science. The treatment provides working insights into the architectures and instruction sets of many available microprocessor chips; into the design characteristics and performance of system components such as backplane buses, memory and storage devices, and communications interfaces; and into systems software requirements and development tools. The Motorola MC 68020 and the Inmos T414 transputer are selected for extensive treatment as representative of two major trends in processor architectures. Throughout this book, the emphasis is on practical, qualitative explanations, with many explanatory diagrams. MARKET.

This is a practical introduction to the key computing concepts of networks and communications, suitable for a first year undergraduate or industrial course. It provides the foundational knowledge on which to build a fully developed understanding of modern communications methodologies, techniques and standards. It will also be a useful professional reference companion.; The book begins with a general introduction to data communications and the options commonly open to the system designer. It then provides overviews of the key areas in which design decisions must be made: communication media; interface standards; network architectures; modems and multiplexers; network topologies, switching and access control; local area networks; wide-area networks; performance; software issues; security; and implementation.; As a second edition of an established text the book has been thoroughly revised and improved but retains the strengths of the first edition in its clear and well- illustrated exposition. It includes current developments in standards and architecture including ATM, B-ISDN, SNMP, TCP/IP, and other state-of-the- art features of the computer communications world.; In its first edition the book was an authoritative textbook and personal reference for industry. In this new edition it should be even more essential for all with a need for an accessible modern technical introduction to computer communications and networks. Suitable for a practically orientated computer science course at degree level or for an introductory industrial course.
