Someone you know has recently made the investment in a brand new computer. She says her new system is 1GHz, which is far faster than her old one, which ran at 300MHz. What would you try to tell her? (Here's a hint: consider the relevance of Amdahl's Law.)

Your close friend has just invested in a brand new computer. How should you proceed? She says that the speed of her new system, 1GHz, is much higher than that of her old system, 300MHz. Just what do you see yourself telling her? (Here's a hint: consider the implications of Amdahl's Law.)

Your friend has just bought a new personal computer. She tells you that her new system
runs at 1GHz, which makes it over three times faster than her old 300 MHz system. What
would you tell her?
By using a specific example case (e.g., In a given system, for 40% of its time the processor is busy with computation but for 60% of its time processor is idle waiting for the completion of I/O operations in disk and network devices), explain how Amdahl’s law can be applied

A gaming device has to transfer a high definition 1280 x 720 x 3 video frame @ 30 frames/sec.
The 32-bit system bus operates at 100MHz clock. It takes one clock cycle to make one transfer through the bus (i.e. D=1) and there is an overhead of ten clock cycles per transfer (i.e. O=10)
Is this bus suitable for this system? If not, then what can be done to make it suitable? Explain.
What if the bus operates in burst mode (burst size of 4)? Would it be suitable to use? Explain.

Q1) A common bus system which is capable of transferring 4 bits at time with number of registers
are 4 and each register is of 4 bits? Draw circuit diagram using Tri state buffer with proper
labelling and explain its working ?
arrow_forward
Asynchronous serial communication is made between the keyboard peripheral and the digital computer. The "A" character printed from the keyboard will be transferred to the CPU. (Note: take the start and end bits as 1 bit long and the character bits as 8 bits long. Since ASCII is 7 bits, add a bit 0 to the most significant bit.)
In the asynchronous serial communication connection, explain the operations from the keyboard to the digital computer only, through this example. Also, explain the types of errors that can be encountered in this connection, through this example.

Would you add a screenshots :
create a working serial communication solution containing optocouplers between an Arduino and a Raspberry Pi.
Basic requirements for your solution:
Arduino must send a minimum of at least 10 characters via the optocoupler to Raspberry.Raspberry will receive these characters and print them on console / monitor.-> (Error handling should be implemented to ensure correct communication. This can be done with parity bit or checksum.)

a.) In the computer system, the Bus is said to be a collection of wires through which datais transmitted. The bus could be unidirectional or bidirectional depending on what isbeing done at a time. With reference to the type of buses explain this phenomena orprinciple.
b.) How does the size or width of a Bus affect or influence the architecture of a computersystem with regards to data transmission? Explain with examples.
c.) Explain the purpose of the Registers and Flags in the operation of the CPU
