Introduction to Computer Organization: Arm

See How the Magic Happens Built with ARM A64 Assembly LanguageThe ARM edition of Introduction to Computer Organization will show you how high-level code connects to computer hardware through ARM 64-bit assembly language. You’ll learn ARM assembly language from the ground up, and all you’ll need is some basic experience with programming. As you grow to understand ARM’s 64-bit design (from first principles), you’ll develop the skills to write more efficient, optimized code.Learn the fundamentals:Data storage formats and computer encodingBinary and hexadecimal arithmetic operationsBoolean algebra and logic gatesDigital circuit design  Explore how software and hardware interact:Memory hierarchy, from CPU registers to the cloudCPU architecture and instruction executionARM 64-bit assembly language programming Get hands-on experience programming the GPIO on Raspberry Pi 3, 4, and 5 in assembly. Use GNU programming tools to examine code generated from C and C++ by the compiler, write assembly programs from scratch, and use the debugger to visualize execution, inspect registers, and understand machine-level operations. Each chapter includes practical “Your Turn” exercises to reinforce key concepts and build real-world programming skills.Whether you’re optimizing code performance, developing embedded systems, or simply curious about how computers execute your programs, this guide provides deep insight into how software and hardware interact to bring programs to life.
