Computer systems: A programmer's perspective / Randal E. Bryant and David R. O'Hallaron - Third edition. - Boston, Massachusetts : Pearson Education Incorporation, c2016 - xxxvi, 1084 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm.

Few students studying computer science or computer engineering will ever have the opportunity to build a computer system. On the other hand, most students will be required to use and program computers on a near daily basis. Computer Systems: A Programmer’s Perspective introduces the important and enduring concepts that underlie computer systems by showing how these ideas affect the correctness, performance, and utility of application programs. The text's hands-on approach (including a comprehensive set of labs) helps students understand the “under-the-hood” operation of a modern computer system and prepares them for future courses in systems topics such as compilers, computer architecture, operating systems, and networking.
