Processor Technology and Architecture

...

Access Method:

The physical structure of a capacity gadget s read/compose instrument and capacity medium decides the routes in which information can be gotten to. Three expansive classes of access are perceived; a solitary gadget can utilize different access techniques:

- Serial access

- Random access

- Parallel access

Portability:

Capacity gadget conveyability is regularly executed in one of two ways: The whole stockpiling gadget stockpiling medium, read/compose instrument, and perhaps controller can be transported between PC frameworks (for instance, a USB streak drive).The stockpiling medium can be expelled from the capacity gadget and transported to a good stockpiling medium on another PC (for instance, a DVD).

CHAPTER-6:SYSTEM INTEGRATION AND PERFORMANCE

SYSTEM BUS:

A transport is a common electrical or optical channel that interfaces two or more gadgets. a framework transport interfaces PC framework parts, including the CPU, memory, stockpiling, and I/O gadgets. There are normally various capacity and I/O gadgets, by and large alluded to as fringe gadgets. A framework transport can be adroitly on the other hand physically isolated into particular subsets, including the information transport, the location transport, and the control bus. As its name suggests, the information transport transmits information between PC framework components. The address transport transmits a memory location when essential stockpiling is the sending or getting gadget. The control transport conveys summons, order reactions, status codes, and comparable messages. PC framework parts facilitate their exercises by sending signals over the control transport. A transport can be developed by utilizing parallel correspondence lines, a littler number of serial correspondence lines, or a blend of both sorts of lines. With parallel correspondence lines, every line conveys stand out piece esteem or flag at once, and numerous lines are required to convey information, address, and control bits. With serial correspondence lines, a solitary correspondence line can convey various bits, in a steady progression, in quick progression.
