Maximum three class tests : 1. One will be in very usual way 2. One will be sudden (The easiest one,

small syllabus, no memorizing, but the date is unknown to me too!!!)

3. If 60% of you(that is, 36) get 80% marks(32) in above two class tests, only then 3rd class test will be taken, which will be open material and the hardest one!!

From this week to 6th Week.Total class = 18 + 2 = 20 Total lecture <= 16 2+1 = 3 == ANOTHER WEEK!!! (kept in hand

unfortunately, due to the political and weather condition of Bangladesh)

Class time <= 40 minutes.

Definition of C.A.: The Architecture of a computer can be

defined as the design of the task-performing part of it.

It also includes the overall fundamental working1 principle of the internal logical structure2 of a computer system.

So, computer architecture includes : 1. Instruction set architecture2. Machine architecture

04/19/23 Sumaiya Iqbal, Lecturer, CSE, BUET

Objectives of a Computer architect: To select, design, interconnect and

engineer hardware components of various levels of computer that meet functional performance and programmability maintaining cost and availability constraint.

So, the total coordination of abstract levels of a processor under changing forces, involving design, measurement and evaluation is within the objectives of a computer architect.

Instruction set architecture is the attributes of a computing system as seen by the assembly language programmer or compiler.

This includes : Instruction Set (what operations can be

performed?) Instruction Format (how are instructions

specified?)04/19/23 Sumaiya Iqbal, Lecturer, CSE, BUET

Data storage (where is data located?) Addressing Modes (how is data

accessed?) Exceptional Conditions (what happens if

something goes wrong?)

Machine organization is the view of the computer that is seen by the logic designer.

This includes : Capabilities & performance characteristics

of functional units (e.g., registers, ALU, shifters, etc.).

Ways in which these components are interconnected

How information flows between components

04/19/23 Sumaiya Iqbal, Lecturer, CSE, BUET

Logic and means by which such information flow is controlled

Coordination of functional units Typically the machine organization is designed to meet a given instruction set architecture.

However, in order to design good instruction sets, it is important to understand the how the architecture might be implemented.

Functional Units : A computer consists of 3 main

functionally independent units : 1. Input/output(I/O) unit2. Memory3. Processor

The I/O unit and the processor is again sub-divided into 2 parts.

04/19/23 Sumaiya Iqbal, Lecturer, CSE, BUET

The 2 parts of I/O unit :1. Input2. Output

The 2 parts of processor:1. Arithmetic and Logic unit2. Control unit

So, there are main 5 functional units of a computer.
