Based on an ongoing case, this text emphasises contemporary approaches and implementations of microcomputer-based information systems.  This practical, applications-oriented text encourages students to master the analysis and design process through an actual project capable of being completed and implemented in one term. This project allows students to solve real-world problems and encourages interaction much like the analyst-client relationship. Through the enhanced systems development life-cycle, students utilise cutting-edge prototyping techniques and fourth-generation language programming along with alternative software solutions to solve design problems.  Features:  * The Cornucopia Case guides students through the enhanced systems development life cycle by using a real-world example.  This ongoing end-of-chapter project allows the students to see how each facet of the enhanced SDLC is implemented by the analyst.  Students are exposed to cost constraints with a budget of ?10,000.  The case addresses programming concerns, file formats, and time management issues. * Capital CASE, a fictitious object-oriented design tool, accompanies the Cornucopia Case. This section illustrates how students might use a CASE tool to solve the problems described in Cornucopia. Students can adapt these solutions or suggestions to their indiviual projects as needed. * Ethical issues that analysts confront daily are interwoven in section called Where Are You On The Gray Scale? * Additional cases for student implementation can be found in the Project Book and Instructor's Manual (A special discounted student package is available which includes the text and project book). * A CASE tool, Visible Analyst Workbench (DOS or Windows, Student Version), and accompanying manual can be packaged with the text.

Life doesn't come with an instruction manual. But if it did, and if that manual was cobbled together in five minutes by a drunken idiot-genius, then it might look something like these crowd-sourced tips and ill-thought-out ideas. Covering everything from how best to turn your cat into a fearsome stegosaurus to pre-empting jellyfish stings, this book presents the wealth of knowledge gleaned from the dusty vaults of twitter's hugely popular @TwopTwips. From the profane to the ridiculous, these laugh-at-loud nuggets of advice, with absurd and informative illustrations, will change your life in a hugely insignificant way.

Digital Design and Computer Architecture is designed for courses that combine digital logic design with computer organization/architecture or that teach these subjects as a two-course sequence. Digital Design and Computer Architecture begins with a modern approach by rigorously covering the fundamentals of digital logic design and then introducing Hardware Description Languages (HDLs). Featuring examples of the two most widely-used HDLs, VHDL and Verilog, the first half of the text prepares the reader for what follows in the second: the design of a MIPS Processor. By the end of Digital Design and Computer Architecture, readers will be able to build their own microprocessor and will have a top-to-bottom understanding of how it works--even if they have no formal background in design or architecture beyond an introductory class. David Harris and Sarah Harris combine an engaging and humorous writing style with an updated and hands-on approach to digital design.

Digital Design and Computer Architecture, Second Edition, takes a unique and modern approach to digital design, introducing the reader to the fundamentals of digital logic and then showing step by step how to build a MIPS microprocessor in both Verilog and VHDL. This new edition combines an engaging and humorous writing style with an updated and hands-on approach to digital design. It presents new content on I/O systems in the context of general purpose processors found in a PC as well as microcontrollers found almost everywhere. Beginning with digital logic gates and progressing to the design of combinational and sequential circuits, the book uses these fundamental building blocks as the basis for the design of an actual MIPS processor. It provides practical examples of how to interface with peripherals using RS232, SPI, motor control, interrupts, wireless, and analog-to-digital conversion. SystemVerilog and VHDL are integrated throughout the text in examples illustrating the methods and techniques for CAD-based circuit design. There are also additional exercises and new examples of parallel and advanced architectures, practical I/O applications, embedded systems, and heterogeneous computing, plus a new appendix on C programming to strengthen the connection between programming and processor architecture. This new edition will appeal to professional computer engineers and to students taking a course that combines digital logic and computer architecture.

Digital Design and Computer Architecture: ARM Edition covers the fundamentals of digital logic design and reinforces logic concepts through the design of an ARM microprocessor. Combining an engaging and humorous writing style with an updated and hands-on approach to digital design, this book takes the reader from the fundamentals of digital logic to the actual design of an ARM processor.
