  2. Microphone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microphone

    How the physical body of the microphone is oriented relative to the diagrams depends on the microphone design. For large-membrane microphones such as in the Oktava (pictured above), the upward direction in the polar diagram is usually perpendicular to the microphone body, commonly known as "side fire" or "side address".

  3. Microcode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microcode

    The IBM System/360 has a 32-bit architecture with 16 general-purpose registers, but most of the System/360 implementations use hardware that implements a much simpler underlying microarchitecture; for example, the System/360 Model 30 has 8-bit data paths to the arithmetic logic unit (ALU) and main memory and implemented the general-purpose ...

  4. Computer architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_architecture

    The first documented computer architecture was in the correspondence between Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace, describing the analytical engine.While building the computer Z1 in 1936, Konrad Zuse described in two patent applications for his future projects that machine instructions could be stored in the same storage used for data, i.e., the stored-program concept.

  5. Microarchitecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microarchitecture

    Diagram of the Intel Core 2 microarchitecture. In electronics, computer science and computer engineering, microarchitecture, also called computer organization and sometimes abbreviated as μarch or uarch, is the way a given instruction set architecture (ISA) is implemented in a particular processor. [1]

  6. Comparison of instruction set architectures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_instruction...

    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.

  7. Systems architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_architecture

    Example of a high-level systems architecture for a computer. A system architecture is the conceptual model that defines the structure, behavior, and views of a system. [1] An architecture description is a formal description and representation of a system, organized in a way that supports reasoning about the structures and behaviors of the system.

  8. Hardware architecture - Wikipedia

    A hardware architecture example, which is integrated as a handheld medical device for diabetes monitoring. U-boat layout, with detailed equipment hardware specification and functionality. Prior to the advent of digital computers, the electronics and other engineering disciplines used the terms system and hardware as they are still commonly used ...

  9. Architecture description language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architecture_description...

    The software engineering community uses an architecture description language as a computer language to create a description of a software architecture. In the case of a so-called technical architecture , the architecture must be communicated to software developers; a functional architecture is communicated to various stakeholders and users.
