1Frequency scaling — (also known as frequency ramping) is, in computer architecture, the technique of ramping a processor s frequency so as to achieve performance gains. Frequency ramping was the dominant force in commodity processor performance increases from the… …
2Instruction level parallelism — (ILP) is a measure of how many of the operations in a computer program can be performed simultaneously. Consider the following program: 1. e = a + b 2. f = c + d 3. g = e * fOperation 3 depends on the results of operations 1 and 2, so it cannot… …
3Instruction pipeline — Pipelining redirects here. For HTTP pipelining, see HTTP pipelining. Basic five stage pipeline in a RISC machine (IF = Instruction Fetch, ID = Instruction Decode, EX = Execute, MEM = Memory access, WB = Register write back). In the fourth clock… …
4Instruction set — An instruction set, or instruction set architecture (ISA), is the part of the computer architecture related to programming, including the native data types, instructions, registers, addressing modes, memory architecture, interrupt and exception… …
5Cycles per instruction — In computer architecture, cycles per instruction (aka clock cycles per instruction, clocks per instruction, or CPI) is a term used to describe one aspect of a processor s performance: the number of clock cycles that happen when an instruction is… …
6Cycles Per Instruction — In computer architecture, Cycles per instruction (clock cycles per instruction or clocks per instruction or CPI) is a term used to describe one aspect of a processor s performance: the number of clock cycles that happen when an instruction is… …
7Dynamic frequency scaling — For the CPU design principle, see Frequency scaling. Dynamic frequency scaling (also known as CPU throttling) is a technique in computer architecture whereby the frequency of a microprocessor can be automatically adjusted on the fly, either to… …
8One instruction set computer — Computer science portal A one instruction set computer (OISC), sometimes called an ultimate reduced instruction set computer (URISC), is an abstract machine that uses only one instruction – obviating the need for a machine language opcode …
9Reduced instruction set computer — The acronym RISC (pronounced risk ), for reduced instruction set computing, represents a CPU design strategy emphasizing the insight that simplified instructions which do less may still provide for higher performance if this simplicity can be… …
10Programmed instruction — is the name of the technology invented by the behaviorist B.F. Skinner to automate teaching. It was based on his theory of Verbal Behavior as a means to accelerate conventional educational learning. Programmed InstructionIt consists of self… …
