Question 1

Van Neumann architecture

Answer 1

Architecture in which there is a single shared memory and instructions are stored in the same format

Question 2

Harvard architecture

Answer 2

Architecture in which there is two separate memory and data buses for data and instructions

Question 3

Contemporary processing

Uses SIMD and MIMD

Question 11

SIMD

Answer 11

single Instruction Multiple data
Parallel processing where processor carries out a single instruction on multiple data items

Question 12

MIMD

Answer 12

multiple instructions multiple data
Multiple instructions carried out on multiple data items across several cores

Question 13

What is distributed computing

Answer 13

Multiple computers on a shared network take part In a bigger problem

E.g internet
