  2. Computer architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_architecture

    The first documented computer architecture was in the correspondence between Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace, describing the analytical engine.While building the computer Z1 in 1936, Konrad Zuse described in two patent applications for his future projects that machine instructions could be stored in the same storage used for data, i.e., the stored-program concept.

  3. SCARA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCARA

    The SCARA is a type of industrial robot. The acronym stands for selective compliance assembly robot arm [1] or selective compliance articulated robot arm. [2] By virtue of the SCARA's parallel-axis joint layout, the arm is slightly compliant in the X-Y direction but rigid in the Z direction, hence the term selective compliance. This is ...

  4. Single instruction, single data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_instruction,_single...

    In computing, single instruction stream, single data stream (SISD) is a computer architecture in which a single uni-core processor executes a single instruction stream, to operate on data stored in a single memory. This corresponds to the von Neumann architecture. SISD is one of the four main classifications as defined in Flynn's taxonomy.

  5. Comparison of instruction set architectures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_instruction...

    An instruction set architecture (ISA) is an abstract model of a computer, also referred to as computer architecture.A realization of an ISA is called an implementation.An ISA permits multiple implementations that may vary in performance, physical size, and monetary cost (among other things); because the ISA serves as the interface between software and hardware.

  6. Flynn's taxonomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flynn's_taxonomy

    Flynn's taxonomy is a classification of computer architectures, proposed by Michael J. Flynn in 1966 [1] and extended in 1972. [2] The classification system has stuck, and it has been used as a tool in the design of modern processors and their functionalities.

    The SAP architecture serves as an example in Digital Computer Electronics for building and analyzing complex logical systems with digital electronics. Digital Computer Electronics successively develops three versions of this computer, designated as SAP-1, SAP-2, and SAP-3. Each of the last two build upon the immediate previous version by adding ...

  8. Microarchitecture - Wikipedia

    Diagram of the Intel Core 2 microarchitecture. In electronics, computer science and computer engineering, microarchitecture, also called computer organization and sometimes abbreviated as μarch or uarch, is the way a given instruction set architecture (ISA) is implemented in a particular processor.

  9. Feng's classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feng's_classification

    According to Feng's classification, computer architecture can be classified into four. The classification is based on the way contents stored in memory are processed. The contents can be either data or instructions. [3] Word serial bit serial (WSBS) Word serial bit parallel (WSBP) Word parallel bit serial (WPBS) Word parallel bit parallel (WPBP)
