In COMP 206: Computer Architecture and Implementation 2, we explore the quantitative principles guiding computer design. Amdahl's law teaches us the importance of optimizing the common case for performance improvement. We discuss performance metrics like MIPS and FLOPS and their implications on system efficiency. An example from the course illustrates practical application: a comparison of performance impacts when reducing the computation time of floating-point square operations by 10-fold. Learn how such changes enhance overall machine performance.
