Computer Organization and Architecture (BCA-52T-115) is an English medium BCA textbook for University of Rajasthan, PDUS, RRBM and MSB University students. The book starts with digital logic: logic gates, Boolean algebra, simplification of Boolean expressions and Karnaugh map minimization in SOP and POS forms. Arithmetic circuits such as adders and subtractors follow, and the sequential logic chapter explains S-R, D, J-K and T flip-flops, the race around condition, master slave flip-flops and flip-flop conversion. Data representation covers number systems and conversions, complements, and the representation of integers, real values and characters in memory. The book then moves to register transfer language and micro-operations, basic computer organization with instruction codes, registers, the common bus, instruction formats, the instruction cycle and addressing modes, and CPU design, including the internal architecture of the 8085 microprocessor. The final chapters deal with input-output organization, modes of transfer, memory hierarchy, cache, associative and virtual memory, interrupts and direct memory access.
