  2. Computer Science - What is it? • Science of ‘abstraction’:

  3. C H A P T E R2 Central Processing Unit (CPU) Data Manipulation

  4. CPU and motherboard

  5. data manipulation coordination of activities temporary storage The ‘von Neumann Architecture’:CPU and Main Memory connected via a Bus

  6. Central role of the Control Unit • To perform an operation on data stored in main memory, the control unit must • transfer data back and forth between main memory and registers • inform the arithmetic/logic unit which registers hold the input data & which registers should receive the result • activate appropriate arithmetic/logic unit circuitry to perform actual operation

  7. Flexibility of Execution • Early computers were not flexible • operations were built into control unit • Programs now encoded/stored in main memory • known as: stored-program concept • As a consequence, the control unit must also • extract the program from main memory • decode the set of instructions • execute each instruction in turn

  8. Machine Language • To apply the stored-program concept: • CPUs must recognize encoded instructions • Collection of instructions known as: • Instruction set, or • Machine language • Every CPU on the market today has a predefined instruction set • instruction sets often differ among various CPUs

  9. Instruction Repertoire • Machine instructions classified into 3 categories: • (1) Data Transfer • move/copy data from one location to another • typical examples: LOAD, STORE • (2) Arithmetic/Logic • perform actual operations on data • typical examples: AND, OR, XOR, SHIFT, ROTATE • (3) Control • manipulate the execution of a program • typical examples: JUMP, HALT

  10. Composition of Machine Instructions • Machine instructions typically consist of 2 parts: • (1) Op-code (operation code) • indicates which operation (such as STORE, SHIFT, XOR) is requested by the instruction • (2) Operand • provides more information about the operation specified by the op-code (e.g. registers/memory cells to be used)

  11. register holding address of next instruction register holding current instruction Simple Machine Architecture (Appendix C)

  12. Example: decoding instruction 35A7 (App. C)

  13. Adding two values stored in main memory

  14. The Machine Cycle (i.e.: break the operand field into its proper components based on the instruction’s op-code) (and store the instruction in the instruction register) • Continually repeated by Control Unit until HALT • Special case: JUMP (i.e: may change program counter)

  15. Decoding JUMP instruction B258 • Translates as follows: • If contents registers 0 & 2 equal: place 58 in program counter • Otherwise: do nothing

  16. Example: Arithmetic/Logic Instructions • Rotation and Shift: • Move bits within a register to left or right • e.g. for obtaining the mantissa in floating-point values • Shift left = multiply by 2 - Shift right = divide by 2

  17. Opdracht: Ch. 2, Problem 14 R0 = 0 R1 = 1 R3 = 5 R0 = 1 R0 = 2 R0 = 3 R0 = 4 R0 = 5

  20. ‘Von Neumann Architecture’- Problem • A problem of speed…?…! • electric pulses can go no faster than speed of light (approx. 30 cm per nanosecond) • For average machine: • fetch-decode-execute cycle takes several nanosecs. • So: increasing speed becomes problem of scale • small, smaller, … stuck • In other words: there appears to be a speed limit!

  21. ‘Von Neumann Architecture’- Alternatives (1) • One solution: Pipelining • allows steps in the machine cycle to overlap • during execution of one instruction, next is fetched • so: more than one instruction is ‘in the pipe’ • Result: same speed - but higher throughput • Problems with JUMP instructions, of course… • pre-fetching becomes useless • Modern CPUs: • fetch & execute multiple instructions at a time

  22. ‘Von Neumann Architecture’- Alternatives (2) • Other solution: (true) Parallel Processing • performing several tasks at the same time • needs multiple processing units • For example: • several complete PCs connected via fast network • each PC capable of independent execution • …

  23. - Distributed ASCI Supercomputer 2 (Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam, 2002) (contains 72 1-Ghz Dual Pentium-IIIs) • Parallel Image Processing: CPU 2 CPU 2 CPU 3 CPU 3 CPU 1 CPU 4 CPU 4 CPU 1 CPU 5 CPU 5 2.6: Parallel Processing: Example

  24. Chapter 2 - Data Manipulation: Conclusions • Today’s computers based on ‘von Neumann’ Architecture • CPU connected to main memory via bus • Both program & data stored in main memory • Program execution based on Machine Cycle • fetch - decode - execute • Alternatives to ‘von Neumann’ Architecture: • based on pipelining / true parallel processing

  25. P A R T2 • Operating Systems • Algorithms • Programming Languages • Software Engineering Software • Note: hardware & software are logically equivalent!

  26. P A R T2 Software • Hardware & software logically equivalent: • Any operation performed by software can also be built directly into hardware • Any instruction executed by hardware can also be simulated in software

  27. C H A P T E R3 • Using hardware directly is highly complicated • even at the machine language level Operating Systems • Especially so when multiple users want to perform multiple tasks - all at the same time • abstraction layer: Operating System

  28. Computer System Overview Internet browser Adventure games Airline reservation Application programs Command interpreter Editors Compilers System programs Operating system Machine Language Microprogramming Hardware Physical devices

  29. Bottom-up view:operating system is there to manage all the pieces of a complex system • orderly, controlled management of multiple programs running at the same time • if needed: orderly, controlled management of multiple users at the same time What is an Operating System? • Top-down view: operating system is there to present the user with the equivalent of a ‘virtual machine’ • user should not be annoyed with low level details • OS => high-level abstractions (files, device access, …)

  30. 1955-1965: • Human operator was ‘operating system’ • Advent of ‘batch processing’: The Evolution of Operating Systems (1) • 1945-1955: • User/programmer was ‘operating system’

  31. 1965-1980: • Advent of ‘interactive processing’: The Evolution of Operating Systems (2) • Provide services in a timely manner • ‘real-time processing’ • Multitasking (single-user) & time-sharing (multi-user)

  32. Focus on user-friendliness: • especially: Graphical User Interface (GUI) => The Evolution of Operating Systems (3) • 1980-now: • Operating systems for multi-processor architectures • includes: load balancing

  33. distinction is vague! distinction is vague! Extends capabilities of the OS (e.g.: format, zip, etc…) Software classification

  34. Components of an Operating System • Interface between the OS and users: • shell (command-line, or GUI incl. window manager) • Internal part of OS: • kernel, a.o.: • file manager (coordinates the use of mass storage) • memory manager (coordinates the use of main memory, especially in multitasking and/or multi-user environments) • device drivers (for communication with external device controllers) • scheduler (coordinates the execution of multiple activities) • dispatcher (controls the allocation of time slices to activities) • ...

  35. The Concept of a Process • Important is distinction between a ‘program’ and the ‘activity of executing a program’! • Program is a static set of directions • Activity is dynamic, and its properties may change over time => ‘process’ • Process has state, including: • current position in program (value of the program counter) • values in general-purpose registers & memory cells • So: state is snapshot of machine at certain time

  36. Process Administration & Time-sharing • Process administration handled by • (1) scheduler • keeps track of all processes by maintaining a process table • (2) dispatcher • ensures that scheduled processes are executed by dividing time into slices, and switching CPU’s attention among the processes

  37. Yes: I’m free! Handling Competition Among Processes Process A ? Process B Use flag? No: I’m busy!

  38. Ah, it’s free Yes: I’m free! Problems…! Process A Process B No: I’m busy! two processes are now using the printer at the same time! the problem is that flag-testing and -setting should not be interrupted!

  39. Solutions... • One possibility is to use interrupt enable and interrupt disable instructions • disadvantage: process may remove the possibility of being interrupted altogether • Other approach is to use single test-and-set instruction • always completed before an interrupt can be handled • flag implemented this way is a.k.a.: semaphore

  40. Another problem: Deadlock • Two or more processes are blocked because each is waiting for access to resources allocated to another • task 1: printer yes, disk drive no • task 2: printer no, disk drive yes • Solutions: • deadlock detection and correction • e.g., by forcibly retrieving some allocated resources • deadlock avoidance • e.g.: spooling (make the resource appear as if it can be shared by multiple processes at same time)

  41. Opdracht: Ch. 3, Problem 13[…] If both a compute-bound process and an I/O-bound process are waiting for a time slice, which should be given priority? Why? • I/O operations leave the CPU with nothing else to do because of access delays (see Problem 11) • CPU-wait period can be allotted to other processes • So, I/O bound process should be given priority

  42. Opdracht: Ch. 3, Problem 14Would greater throughput be achieved by a system running two processes if both processes were I/O-bound or if one was I/O-bound and the other was compute-bound? Why? • I/O operations make CPU wait (see Problem 11/13) • CPU-wait period can be allotted to other processes • But… allotting the time to another I/O-bound process is not of much help • This extra process also makes the CPU do nothing... • So, a mix of an I/O-bound process and a compute- bound process generally gives highest throughput • Note: do not forget task-switching overhead

  43. Chapter 3 - Operating Systems: Conclusions • Operating System - ‘glue’ between hardware and applications • Manages and controls multiple applications running at same time • May also service multiple users at same time • Multi-tasking / time-sharing based on processes • Difficulties arise due to competition among multiple processes and deadlocks
