The Diary of a PhD Pursuing Digital Nomad
Formålet med skedulering Operativsystemer kan bruke forskjellige teknikker for å skedulere en mengde arbeidsoppgaver i form av tråder og prosesser, med en begrenset mengde ressurser (CPU). Du har en PC med en Intel i7 prosessor (CPU) og kan velge mellom en rekke forskjellige operativsystemer som bruker forskjellige skeduleringsalgoritmer. Hvilken skeduleringsalgoritmer er best?. Det avhenger først … Read more
In the last three posts in this series we have covered the Arithmetic/Logic Unit (ALU), the Control Unit, memory and bus. So far we have seen that the Von Neumann architecture is working very well by transferring instructions and data back and forth between memory and CPU via a bus. So what is this Von … Read more
Welcome to part 3 of this series! In the last part we discusses the CPU and some of it’s basic parts which included ALU, Control Unit and Register. In this part we will connect two additional components and they are called Bus and Memory as shown on the diagram. This is also where the Von … Read more
In Part I of this series we learned about the Von Neumann architecture. Let’s dig a bit deeper and learn how this is all glued together. So what is really a CPU and what does it look like? CPU stands for “central processing unit” and we think of it as the brain of the computer. … Read more
Ok, so you have just started studying Computer Science or a similar study and you are now learning about Von Neumann architecture. You might be asking yourself “Why do we care about this in year 2015?” Well, trust me, you do care. The details about the architecture is very well documented and you find dozens … Read more
