Hofstadter's great achievement in Gödel, Escher, Bach was making abstruse mathematical topics (like undecidability, recursion, and 'strange loops') accessible and remarkably entertaining.

By Noam Nisan and Shimon Schocken Unlike other texts that cover only one aspect of the field, The Elements of Computing Systems gives students an integrated and rigorous picture of applied computer science, as its comes to play in the construction of a simple yet powerful computer system. We want to be able to This idea was already clearly articulated at Xerox PARC in the first part of the 1970s – a place that more than any other is responsible for creating the category of software applications. Dec 5, 2013 - That's the reason we would like to display The Elements of Computing Systems: Building a Modern Computer from First Principles in our site. Aug 17, 2011 - I got curious as to how they were actually built and stumbled across a reference to, what I think, is an amazing text book. Apart from that Many years ago computing environments used to be much simpler. Building a Modern Computer from First Principles. [53:43] Summary of both The course goes under a few different titles, such as 'Digital System Construction', 'Elements of Computing Systems', and the same 'From Nand to Tetris', depending on university. May 20, 2008 - It's called 'From Nand to Tetris - Building a Modern Computer From First Principles'. The Elements of Computing Systems: Building a Modern Computer from First Principles. Mar 17, 2005 - The Elements of Computing Systems. Jan 3, 2011 - This blog is motivated thanks to the book "The elements of computing systems: Building a modern computer from first principles". Oct 27, 2012 - Two years ago I belatedly ↵reported on Shimon Schocken's and Noam Nisan's book 'The elements of computing systems: Building a modern computer from first principles' (2005).

At first I thought it was just [51:33] Building the OS (Operating System). Feb 1, 2001 - If life can grow out of the formal chemical substrate of the cell, if consciousness can emerge out of a formal system of firing neurons, then so too will computers attain human intelligence. The story of computing is the story of humanity.™. Explore all of the key components and essential principles through a series of fascinating experiments. Nov 15, 2011 - 2 When we use computers to simulate some process in the real world – the behavior of a weather system, the processing of information in the brain, the deformation of a car in a crash – our concern is to correctly model the features of this process or system.
