Explain the consequences of having a computer without an operating system.What is the purpose of an interrupt handler in an operating system?A group was hired to come up with techniques to boost a computer's performance. One of the participants proposed that the cache in the machine with L1, L2, and L3 be increased in size. Do you agree with this statement? Explain.

Explore the role of memory protection keys in modern processor architectures and how they enhance security in memory isolation.

Carefully read each sentence in this question. You may agree/disagree with each sentence (consider each sentence separately) if you have a good justification for doing so (not in more than 2 lines for each sentence). “A daisy chaining technique could result in starvation.” “The received data is saved in contiguous memory regions in DMA transfer.” “The most difficult method of device identification is multiple interrupt lines.” “An interrupt request takes longer for the CPU to handle than a DMA request.” “The architecture of InfiniBand operation is layered.”

The Hack design splits the address space, preventing data and instructions from being stored in the same place.   What are the implications of this architecture? Explain and debate in your own words. Is Von Neumann architecture synonymous with Hack architecture? (Yes/No)

It is impossible to store both data and instructions in the same area in the Hack design.   In what ways does this design have implications? Explain and discuss your ideas in your own terms. Is Von Neumann architecture the same as Hack architecture? (Yes/No)

Give an example of memory protection.

Dont use answers from other websites  please!! Answer the following review questions and submit your answer (Refer CH1.5, 1.6, and 1.9 of Architecture textbook) 1. Explain what Moore's Law is. What are the limitations of Moore’s Law? Why can’t this law hold forever? Explain. 2. Explain the purpose of processing unit and program counter in von Neumann model. 3. Explain the three cycles of von Neumann model computers. When do we need an additional cycle (operand fetch)? 4. Explain the von Neumann bottleneck.

The Hack architecture divides the address space, preventing the storage of both data and instructions in the same location. What ramifications does this architecture have?In your own words, explain and discuss.Is Hack architecture synonymous with Von Neumann architecture? (Yes/No)

DO NOT COPY FROM OTHER WEBSITES COrrect and detailed answer will be Upvoted else downvoted directly. Thank you!

For Von Neumann architecture bottleneck, what are possible ways that the bottleneck can be reduced ?Which is the  the best answer  A. Increased the system memory speed. B. Expand the data path from CPU to system memory. C. A and B. D. None of the above.

This is an Operating system review question. Answer the question by true or false. Please help me with this review question, this is not a graded question. please also explain why so that i could understand.

A processor that can decode encrypted data and system instructions, and then execute the instructions on the decoded data and system instructions, has been suggested. Encryption will then be performed by the CPU. Using a CPU this way has what advantages? Is there a need for a certain CPU architecture?

Explain the effect of having a computer that does not have an operating system.  Why does an operating system need an interrupt handler?                           A team was contracted to propose ways that a computer’s performance can be improved. One of the members suggested that they should increase the size of the cache in the machine that has L1, L2 and L3. Would you agree with this? Explain.            answer all

Q: Show how a 64 Kbyte memory (32 Kbyte SRAM & 32 Kbyte EEPROM) Draw the complete schematic of the design indicating the address map. Assume the starting address of the EEPROM is 90000H and for SRAM 80000H. (Using any method you prefer).

What is pipelining in computer architecture, and why is it beneficial?

In the context of CPU pipelining, what is the concept of data hazards, and how are they mitigated?
