Review text

The first part of the book which is written in French gives an introduction to computer architecture. First, it considers the digital level (transistors, combinatorial and sequential circuits, memory structures) and the microprogramming level. Then, the book concentrates on the hardware/software interface of a computer, namely machine languages including number representations, address calculation, and the mechanism of calling procedures. The second part of the book concentrates on real-time applications. It handles control structures necessary for real-time applications and gives detailed examples, e.g., control of engines. The book closes with an introduction to serial communication via RS-232C and the PCI-Bus which is mostly used in real-time applications. The concepts are illustrated by means of the Motorola microprocessor and micocontroller family.
