Introduction To Modern Computer Systems

This document discusses modern computer systems and property-driven computing. It describes the key functionalities and features of modern computers, including their usage and the systems they support. It then explains three models of modern computers: the structural model involving hardware and software, the interaction model regarding networking and distributed systems, and the execution model concerning scheduling and performance. The document concludes by discussing important computing properties like real-time, fault-tolerance, security, and quality of service, and how to design systems according to such properties.

Property-driven computing systems


Computing properties

the qualities that computer systems


are required to have to achieve their
goals

Goals

general-purpose
batch vs. interactive

special-purpose
property-dependent

Computing properties
Common properties

real-time
secure
fault-tolerant
QoS (network)
mobile/wireless
parallel
distributed

Elaborate the properties (1/2)


Real-time

fails if the given deadline is missed

Fault-tolerant

must be able to continue computing


while a part of the system fails

Secure

must be able to protect the system in the


presence of external attack

Quality of service (QoS)

need to be able to consider the


requirement of packets, such as priority,
bit rate, error rate, etc.
10

Elaborate the properties (2/2)


Mobile/wireless

must be able to adaptive to mobile


devices and users

Fault-tolerant

multiple processing units to operate


simultaneously to achieve a common
goal(s)

Distributed

must be able to communicate and


cooperate with other autonomous
computer systems
11

How to design & implement


Key concepts

Real-time
scheduling to meet time constraints

Fault-tolerant
redundancy

Mobile
satisfy the requirement of mobile devices and

mobile interactions

QoS
packet scheduling

Distributed
networking, interactions among multiple instances

Parallel
multiple hardware units and their parallel

management
