    William Stallings Computer Organization and Architecture

    Uploaded by

    Ahmed Hassan Mohammed
    This document provides an overview of key concepts from the introduction chapter of the book "Computer Organization and Architecture" by William Stallings. It defines computer architecture as the attributes visible to a programmer, such as instruction set and data representation. It defines computer organization as how the architecture is implemented internally, such as control signals and memory technology. It notes that different versions of systems like Intel x86 and IBM System/370 share the same basic architecture but have differing organizations. The document outlines the structure and functions of a basic computer system at the top level and at the CPU level.

    Computer Organization
    and Architecture

    Chapter 1
    Introduction
    Architecture & Organization 1
    • Architecture is those attributes visible to the
    programmer
    —Instruction set, number of bits used for data
    representation, I/O mechanisms, addressing
    techniques.
    —e.g. Is there a multiply instruction?
    • Organization is how features are implemented
    —Control signals, interfaces, memory technology.
    —e.g. Is there a hardware multiply unit or is it done by
    repeated addition?
    Architecture & Organization 2
    • All Intel x86 family share the same basic
    architecture
    • The IBM System/370 family share the same
    basic architecture

    • This gives code compatibility


    —At least backwards
    • Organization differs between different versions
    Structure & Function

    • Structure is the way in which components relate


    to each other

    • Function is the operation of individual


    components as part of the structure
    Function
    • All computer functions are:
    —Data processing
    —Data storage
    —Data movement
    —Control
    Functional view
    Operations (1) Data movement
    Operations (2) Storage
    Operation (3) Processing from/to storage
    Operation (4)
    Processing from storage to I/O
