《经典原版书库·计算机组成与设计：硬件·软件接口（英文版·第4版）》具有以下特色：
　　涵盖从串行计算到并行计算的革命性变革，新增了关于并行化的一章，并且每章中还有一些强调并行硬件和软件主题的小节。
　　新增一个由NVIDIA的首席科学家和架构主管撰写的附录，介绍了现代GPU的出现和重要性，首次详细描述了这个针对可视计算进行了优化的高度并行化、多线程、多核的处理器。
　　描述一种度量多核性能的独特方法-Roofline模型，自带AMD Opteron X4、Intel Xeon 5000、Sun UltraSPARC T2和IBM Cell的基准测试和分析。
　　涵盖一些关于闪存和虚拟机的新内容。
　　提供了大量富有启发性的练习题。
　　将AMD Opteron X4和Intel Nehalem作为贯穿《经典原版书库·计算机组成与设计：硬件·软件接口（英文版·第4版）》的实例。
　　用SPEC CPU2006组件更新了所有处理器性能实例。

这本最畅销的计算机组成书籍经过全面更新，关注现今发生在计算机体系结构领域的革命性变革：从单处理器发展到多核微处理器，从串行发展到并行。与前几版一样，《经典原版书库·计算机组成与设计：硬件·软件接口（英文版·第4版）》采用了MIPS处理器来展示计算机硬件技术、汇编语言、计算机算术、流水线、存储器层次结构以及I/O等基本功能。此外，《经典原版书库·计算机组成与设计：硬件·软件接口（英文版·第4版）》还包括一些关于ARM和x86体系结构的介绍。
