Computer architecture is a subject matter focused on industrialized computer design decisions. Due to the massive industrial efforts dedicated to these design decisions, once they are set, they are expensive to change.
Popular Literature
John Hennessy and David Patterson's Computer Architecture [1] is a classic in this field. In this field, the major technical decisions and its influence on software, data formats, communication infrastructures, are tightly integrated. It is necessary to note that all these interrelated decisions can be summarized in terms of Moore's Law, and can be traced back to symmetry and symmetry-breaking.
