Evaluate Systems Architecture Name School Abstract The CPU is the brain of the computer. Throughout the evolution of computers, various inventors have come up with different architectures and designs for CPUs. It has to be connected to the rest of the components of a computer and communicates with them through signals carried by buses on the system board. This papers examines the organization and interconnection of the CPU and the rest of the components Table of Contents Abstract 1 CPU 1 VLIW (very long instruction word) and EPIC (Explicitly parallel instruction computer) 2 Main memory 3 Registers 3 Program counter 3 Instruction register 3 Memory address register and memory data register 3 Multiprocessing 4 References 4 CPU A CPU can be described using various characteristics. These include the memory addressing techniques, type of registers and their number, the design of its instruction set and others.
Relocation, sharing, physical organization, protection logical. What kind of memory address does a central processing unit (CPU) generate?

Steven Michael Stepien TB143 Week 2 6/25/2011 HISTORY OF INTEL CPUs USED IN PCs That was the year Intel created the 8086, a 3-micron chip chugging along at 4.77MHz, while later versions would run at up to 10MHz. The 8086 had just 29,000 transistors, which was still nearly four times as many as the 8085 released in 1976, and was Intel's first 16-bit microprocessor and responsible for kicking off the 16-bit era (note that the 8086 wasn't the first 16-bit chip). Backwards compatibility with software written for the 8008, 8080, and 8085, and the ability to address 1MB of memory natively made the 8086 a near instant success. Intel entertained the computing world with the 80286 in 1982, a 1.5-micron part with a mind-boggling 134,000 transistors and 16MB of addressable memory. The first 286 pedaled along at 6MHz and, like the original 8086, would later double in speed.
Week 4: Computer Architecture CIS-106 Intro to Info Technology Abstract Computer architecture and its history are important to understanding how computers work. The basic building block to today’s modern day computers is the Von Neumann architecture. There are different types of functions within the Von Neumann architecture that have helped create an efficient design and allow computers to perform multiple functions rather than being used for one specific purpose. The Von Neumann model uses memory, system buses, and Boolean operators to communicate programs and perform functions. Week 4: Computer Architecture A computer is an electronic device that operates under the control of instructions that are stored in memory.
