identify the component in the microprocessor what does it contain?
Answers
Explanation:
Early on in the days of computer science, computer programs were hard-wired, only using memory to store data. Reprogramming computers involved changing hardware switches manually, taking ridiculous amounts of time and having a high potential for coding errors. As a workaround to these problems, mathematician and computer scientist John von Neumann proposed what is now known as the von Neumann architecture, which stores programs in memory, thereby avoiding the need to hard-wire them.
Microprocessor Execution Edit
In a von Neumann architecture, a circuit called a microprocessor is used to process program instructions and execute them. To execute a program, the microprocessor first fetches a programs' instructions from memory and the data necessary to run them. Then, the microprocessor decodes and separates the instructions and data and activates the necessary components and pathways needed to run the program. Finally, the microprocessor executes the program, running through the instructions, manipulating the data, and storing the results.
