I feel like computer science degrees rarely get into much of the hardware beyond some basic assembly. You might have benefitted from taking some computer engineering courses which cover the topics in this book in much greater detail.
- mhh__ 6y ago> basic assembly Even some people actually working on compilers still talk about pipeline stalls in a ye olde pentium/RISC sense rather than the out of order monsters we have today.
- krisgee 6y agoInteresting my CS degree had a required introductory Computer Engineering course which itself had a pre-req first year course where we learned digital logic (among other stuff). We didn't go quite as far as this book seems to but definitly got a decent grounding in how computers actually do their thing before it was back to theory.
