Advance Computer Architecture Notes
This is a comprehensive 118page detailed note on advanced topics in computer architecture. This starts with the principles of processor performance and the basics of RISC and CISC architecture classification. The document investigates the basics of pipelining and its hazards, and some advanced architectures like superscalar and superpipelined systems. Very Long Instruction Word VLIW architectures and basic multiprocessor designs are also emphasized. This note explains Flynns classification, array processors, vector processors, associative processors, and systolic architectures. Hierarchical memory technology is discussed followed by various computing models that work on these computing devices, such as data flow computers and cloud computing. The two sections in this resource will be useful to those who want to address current developments and architectures in computer systems.
