what goes into comp. system
Give this one a try later!
input
have more than 1 processor "core" on a single silicon chip
-allows computer to run faster
, Give this one a try later!
multicore processors (2,4,6,8)
-CPU
-carries out 4 operations:
1. fetches instructions
2. decodes instructions
3. executes instruction
4. stores results
Give this one a try later!
Machine cycle
closed path followed or capable of being followed by an electric current
-vacuum tubes - flow of electrons
Give this one a try later!
circuit
-computers native language
-a binary-type programming language built into the CPU that is run directly by the
computer
-each CPU type has its own machine language; thus each computer's machine
language is brand-dependent
-Language translators: computer's system software converts higher-level language
