  2. 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.

  3. Feng's classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feng's_classification

    According to Feng's classification, computer architecture can be classified into four. The classification is based on the way contents stored in memory are processed. The contents can be either data or instructions. [3] Word serial bit serial (WSBS) Word serial bit parallel (WSBP) Word parallel bit serial (WPBS) Word parallel bit parallel (WPBP)

Classic Complex Instruction Set Computer (CISC) ISAs optimized I n s t r u c t i o n s P r o g r a m {\displaystyle \mathrm {\tfrac {Instructions}{Program}} } by providing a larger set of more complex CPU instructions .

  5. Java virtual machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_virtual_machine

    Overview of a Java virtual machine (JVM) architecture based on The Java Virtual Machine Specification Java SE 7 Edition. A Java virtual machine (JVM) is a virtual machine that enables a computer to run Java programs as well as programs written in other languages that are also compiled to Java bytecode.

  6. Memory hierarchy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_hierarchy

    This is a general memory hierarchy structuring. Many other structures are useful. For example, a paging algorithm may be considered as a level for virtual memory when designing a computer architecture, and one can include a level of nearline storage between online and offline storage.

  7. System bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_bus

    Example of a single system computer bus. A system bus is a single computer bus that connects the major components of a computer system, combining the functions of a data bus to carry information, an address bus to determine where it should be sent or read from, and a control bus to determine its operation. The technique was developed to reduce ...

  8. IPO model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPO_Model

    The input–process–output model. The input–process–output (IPO) model, or input-process-output pattern, is a widely used approach in systems analysis and software engineering for describing the structure of an information processing program or other process.

  9. Multithreading (computer architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multithreading_(computer...

    Cycle i + 2: instruction j + 3 from thread A and instructions m + 1 and m + 2 from thread C are all simultaneously issued. To distinguish the other types of multithreading from SMT, the term " temporal multithreading " is used to denote when instructions from only one thread can be issued at a time.
