  2. Bus (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    An address bus is a bus that is used to specify a physical address. When a processor or DMA-enabled device needs to read or write to a memory location, it specifies that memory location on the address bus (the value to be read or written is sent on the data bus). The width of the address bus determines the amount of memory a system can address.

  3. Tomasulo's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomasulo's_algorithm

    The concepts of reservation stations, register renaming, and the common data bus in Tomasulo's algorithm presents significant advancements in the design of high-performance computers. Reservation stations take on the responsibility of waiting for operands in the presence of data dependencies and other inconsistencies such as varying storage ...

  4. System bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_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 costs and improve modularity, and ...

    - If hit (D or VE or S) the data is sent to the bus (intervention) and in case of D the data is written also in MM. The cache is set S. Bus Read - If hit (D or VE or S) the data is sent to the bus (Intervention). - All the caches are set S. Write Broadcasting - The cache is updated with new data. The state remains S. Operations; Write Allocate

    Bus (computing), a communication system that transfers data between different components in a computer or between different computers Memory bus, a bus between the computer and the memory; PCI bus, a bus between motherboard and peripherals that uses the Peripheral Component Interconnect standard

  8. Wishbone (computer bus) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wishbone_(computer_bus)

    The Wishbone Bus is an open source hardware computer bus intended to let the parts of an integrated circuit communicate with each other. The aim is to allow the connection of differing cores to each other inside of a chip. The Wishbone Bus is used by many designs in the OpenCores project. Wishbone is intended as a "logic bus".

  9. 4-bit computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-bit_computing

    4-bit computing is the use of computer architectures in which integers and other data units are 4 bits wide. 4-bit central processing unit (CPU) and arithmetic logic unit (ALU) architectures are those that are based on registers or data buses of that size.
