Download or read book How Computers Work written by Roger Young and published by How Computers Work. This book was released on 2002 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computers are the most complex machines that have ever been created. This book will tell you how they work and no technical knowledge is required. It explains the operation of a simple, but fully functional, computer in complete detail. Relays, which are explained, are used in the circuitry instead of transistors for simplicity, though transistors are mentioned. Did you ever wonder what a bit, a pixel, a latch, a word (of memory), a data bus, an address bus, a memory, a register, a processor, a timing diagram, a clock (of a processor), an instruction, or machine code is? Though most explanations of how computers work are a lot of analogies or require a background in electrical engineering, this book will tell you precisely what each of them is and how each of them works without requiring any previous knowledge of computers or electronics. This book starts out very simple and gets more complex as it goes along, but everything is explained. The diagram at the end of the Processor' chapter shows just how complex it gets. (To read the whole book for free, go to howcomputers.com, but this book is much easier to read in book form.)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of us do not realize that we are living in revolutionary times. To a large degree, we are in a time of massive economic and industrial change, and perhaps history will one day record this era as the Second Industrial Revolution. Certainly we have been made aware of the decline of "smoke stack industries" and of the rapid rise of what might be called the "infor mation industries" in the United States and, presumably, in most of the western world. Several best-selling authors have assured us that we must change or perish, and a great many industrialists appear to agree. Ironically, we have also been all but promised a return to a modern form of that very cottage industry economy that the first Industrial Revolution wiped out: Some of our leading savants envision individuals working at home on desktop computers, connected via hardwire (telephone) to an employer's large, central computer. Will this come to pass? Perhaps; the industrial/economic indicators appear to point in that direction, although there are the problems of numerous laws and regulations -labor laws and OSHA laws, to name only two areas, and ignoring for the moment the reaction of our labor unions - that would be most difficult to reconcile with such an arrangement. In a sense, it is the computer that has brought about this condition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Here at last is the easily-understood yet thoroughly detailed explanation of the inner-workings of microcomputers that you assumed existed but could never find. Every computer user - students, home enthusiasts, programmers; employees of hardware, chip or peripheral manufacturers - anyone who has ever been merely curious about what's inside the computer case - can learn from this jargon-free book. The author takes you on a journey-to-the-center of-the-earth-style tour of the microcomputer, using vivid analogies and illustrations to bring the material to life." "Covering the most basic electrical devices in the computer to the massive artificial intelligence programs which allow computers to reason like human beings, How Computers REALLY Work is the only book of its kind. It deconstructs the computer making it accessible to everyone from a computer professional to a 12 year-old child. How Computers REALLY Work is destined to become a basic title for every school, library, office, or personal reference shelf."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
