COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE
WHAT IS COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE ?
• Computer architecture means building or designing some
rules and methods that can make a computer work by
integrating the software and hardware respectively.
PROGRESS OF ARCHITECTURE
• (1940-1950) – vacuum tubes were used
• (1950-1964) – transistors were used
• (1964-1971) – integrated circuits were used
• (1971- present day) – microprocessor chips
TYPES OF COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE
• Von-Neumann architecture
• Harvard architecture
Other classification is RISC and CISC
Sub categories in Computer architecture are ISA (Instruction set
architecture), micro architecture and logical design.
PRESENT DAY ARCHITECTURE
•
SUMMARY
• Definition of computer architecture
• Evolution of technology used in computer architecture
• Types and classifications in computer architecture
• Present day architecture in computers
