Contents:

Part I: History and Concepts. 1. Introduction. 2. Introduction to Sets, Boolean Algebra, and Logic Circuit Elements. 3. Information Representation in a Computer. 4. The Components of a Computer System. Part II: An Overview of Computer Hardware. 5. The Control Unit. 6. Memories and Storage Devices. 7. Busses - Information Flow Inside a Computer. 8. The Arithmetic/Logic Unit. 9. The Input/Output Unit. 10. Peripheral Controllers and Devices. 11. Hardware Design Tools. Part III: An Overview of Computer Software. 12. Introduction to Operating Systems. 13. Operating System Components. 14. A Layered Operating System and Its Kernal. 15. Programming Languages. 16. The Application Layer. 17. Software Tools. Part IV: Systems consideration. 18. The User Interface. 19. Reliable and Economical System Design. 20. The Design Process.

Summary: A text for the emerging first course in the computer engineering sequence, which may be found at the freshman or sophomore level in departments of computer engineering, electrical engineering (with a computer engineering track), or computer science. The coverage of this text is much broader than a digital design text (previously the commonly used text for a first course on computer engineering). With its blending of computer science and electrical engineering topics, this text truly covers both hardware and software concerns.
