What is Computer Architecture and Organization?
Computer Architecture
Computer Architecture refers to those system attributes that are visible in a program.
Those qualities have a direct bearing on the logical
operation of the system.
Structural features include:
Commands set
The number of bits
used to represent different types of data (numbers, letters, etc.).
Input/output method and memory technology.
For example, architectural design is based on whether a computer will have duplicate commands or not.
What is Computer Organization?
· The organization is how features are implemented.
How does a Computer work?
Example: Is there
a special hardware multiplication unit for multiplication operation or is it
done by repeated additions?
Computer organization refers to functional units and their
connections that receive structural specifications.
Organizational qualifications:
1. The details of the computer hardware are obvious to the
developers as control signs.
2. Interaction between borders and computers.
3. Memory technology used
Computer Organization vs. Architecture
Properties
Sensible features of the computer's visible computer
hardware and what computer-understandable instructions are under computer
design.
Order
The physical features of a computer that are not visible to
the system and how the computer hardware performs the instructions are read as
a computer organization.
Computer Organization vs. Contd ...
Computer programming should be designed to use specific building
details.
It is possible to
have the same structures but different organizations.
Ø All computers in the Intel Pentium have the same design.
Ø Each type of Pentium has a different organization or
implementation.
Construction
Problems:
Reduced Set Teaching (RISC).
Complex Instruction
Set Computing (CISC).
Pipe etc.
Organizational Issues:
Input / output, control unit, memory, etc.
Why Study Computer?
Understand how a computer works!
Computer hardware, its features, functionality, and
interaction.
How can you choose a
plan?
Understand the trade between various factors, such as memory
size, CPU clock speed, etc.
