The computer bus is the foundation of the modern computer. Without
busses, a computer would just be a bundle of components. As more
and more equipment becomes interface driven-either through
controllers or directly to and from PCs-the question of which bus
to use becomes increasingly important.
The computer bus is the foundation of the modern computer. Without

and more equipment becomes interface driven-either through

to use becomes increasingly important.
Computer Busses has been designed to help answer that question. It
is a comprehensive guide to busses, from the high-level software
interface to the low-level, electrical characteristics and will
help you choose the most appropriate bus for each particular
application. The author uses a top-down approach and organizes his
presentation into five main areas:

Plenty of real-life case studies and application-specific
programming examples make Computer Busses an essential reference
for engineers, system architects, designers, and technicians, and
required reading for students doing project work in electronic
design, software engineering, and the range of related disciplines.
