  1. Invitation to Computer Science 5thEdition Chapter 5 Computer Systems Organization

  2. Objectives In this chapter, you will learn about: • The components of a computer system • The Von Neumann architecture • Non-Von Neumann architectures Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  3. Introduction • Computer organization • Branch of computer science that studies computers in terms of their major functional units and how they work • Concept of abstraction • Used throughout computer science • Without it, it would be virtually impossible to study computer design or any other large, complex system Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition 3

  4. Figure 5.1 The Concept of Abstraction Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  5. The Components of a Computer System • Von Neumann architecture is based on the following three characteristics • Four major subsystems called memory, input/output, the arithmetic/logic unit (ALU), and the control unit • The stored program concept • The sequential execution of instructions Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition 5

  6. Figure 5.2 Components of the Von Neumann Architecture Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  7. Memory and Cache • Memory • Functional unit of a computer that stores and retrieves the instructions and the data being executed • Random access (RAM) • Access technique used by computer memory • Read-only memory (ROM) • Information is prerecorded during manufacture Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  8. Memory and Cache (continued) • With a cell size of 8 bits: • The largest unsigned integer value that can be stored in a single cell is 11111111 (255) • [0 . . (2N– 1)] • Range of addresses available on a computer • When dealing with memory: • Distinguish between an address and the contents of that address Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  11. Memory and Cache (continued) • Basic memory operations • Fetching and storing • Memory access time • Typically about 5 to 10 nsec • Memory registers • Used to implement the fetch and store operations • Memory Address Register (MAR) • Holds the address of the cell to be fetched or stored Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  12. Memory and Cache (continued) • Memory Data Register (MDR) • Contains data value being fetched or stored • Two-dimensional structure • Memory organization • Memory locations • Stored in row major order • Selection lines • Row selection line • Column selection line Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  15. Memory and Cache (continued) • Fetch/store controller • Determines whether we put contents of a memory cell into the MDR or put the contents of the MDR into a memory cell • Cache memory • Principle of Locality:when the computer uses something, it will probably use it again very soon, and it will probably use the “neighbors” of this item very soon Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  16. Figure 5.7 Overall RAM Organization Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  17. Input/Output and Mass Storage • Input/output (I/O)units • Devices that allow a computer system to communicate and interact with the outside world as well as store information • Volatilememory • Information disappears when power is turned off • Nonvolatile storage • Role of mass storage devices such as disks and tapes Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  18. Input/Output and Mass Storage (continued) • Input/output devices come in two basic types • Those that represent information in human-readable form for human consumption • Those that store information in machine-readable form for access by a computer system • Disk • Stores information in units called sectors • Fixed number of sectors are placed in a concentric circle on the surface of the disk, called a track Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  19. Figure 5.8 Overall Organization of a Typical Disk Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  20. Input/Output and Mass Storage (continued) • Seek time • Time needed to position the read/write head over the correct track • Latency • Time for the beginning of the desired sector to rotate under the read/write head • Transfer time • Time for the entire sector to pass under the read/write head and have its contents read into or written from memory Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  21. Input/Output and Mass Storage (continued) • Sequential access storage device (SASD) • Does not require that all units of data be identifiable via unique addresses • Direct access storage devices • Much faster at accessing individual pieces of information • I/O controller • Has small amount of memory (I/O buffer) • I/O control and logic:ability to handle mechanical functions of the I/O device Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition

  23. The Arithmetic/Logic Unit • Subsystem that performs addition, subtraction, and comparison for equality • Components • Registers, interconnections between components, and the ALU circuitry • Register • Storage cell that holds the operands of an arithmetic operation and holds its result • Bus • Path for electrical signals Invitation to Computer Science, 5th Edition
