Computer Organization and Architecture Lecture Note (IIT Kanpur)

Description

Name of Notes : – Computer Organization and Architecture Lecture Note (IIT Kanpur)

Introduction

Computer Organization and Architecture Tutorial provides in-depth knowledge of internal working, structuring, and implementation of a computer system.

Whereas, Organization defines the way the system is structured so that all those catalogued tools can be used properly.

Our Computer Organization and Architecture Tutorial includes all topics of such as introduction, ER model, keys, relational model, join operation, SQL, functional dependency, transaction, concurrency control, etc.

In general terms, the architecture of a computer system can be considered as a catalogue of tools or attributes that are visible to the user such as instruction sets, number of bits used for data, addressing techniques, etc.

Whereas, Organization of a computer system defines the way system is structured so that all those catalogued tools can be used. The significant components of Computer organization are ALU, CPU, memory and memory organization.
