  2. Processor (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Processor_(computing)

    The Synergistic Processing Element or Unit (SPE or SPU) is a component in the Cell microprocessor. Processors based on different circuit technology have been developed. One example is quantum processors , which use quantum physics to enable algorithms that are impossible on classical computers (those using traditional circuitry).

  3. Systolic array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systolic_array

    In parallel computer architectures, a systolic array is a homogeneous network of tightly coupled data processing units (DPUs) called cells or nodes.Each node or DPU independently computes a partial result as a function of the data received from its upstream neighbours, stores the result within itself and passes it downstream.

    An instruction set architecture (ISA) is an abstract model of a computer, also referred to as computer architecture.A realization of an ISA is called an implementation.An ISA permits multiple implementations that may vary in performance, physical size, and monetary cost (among other things); because the ISA serves as the interface between software and hardware.

    The Hack computer is intended for hands-on virtual construction in a hardware simulator application as a part of a basic, but comprehensive, course in computer organization and architecture. [2] One such course, created by the authors and delivered in two parts, is freely available as a massive open online course (MOOC) called Build a Modern ...

  9. Processor design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Processor_design

    Processor design is a subfield of computer science and computer engineering (fabrication) that deals with creating a processor, a key component of computer hardware.. The design process involves choosing an instruction set and a certain execution paradigm (e.g. VLIW or RISC) and results in a microarchitecture, which might be described in e.g. VHDL or Verilog.
