William Stallings Computer Organization and Architecture 9 Edition

This document summarizes key points from the introduction of Chapter 1 of William Stallings' Computer Organization and Architecture textbook. It discusses the IBM System/370 architecture, including its introduction in 1970 and ability to upgrade models. It also describes the hierarchical and modular structure of computer systems, and how they can be analyzed at each level. The four main functions of a computer are listed as data processing, storage, movement, and control. The four main structural components of a computer are identified as the CPU, main memory, I/O, and system interconnection. Details are provided about the structural components of the CPU.

IBM System
370 Architecture
 IBM System/370 architecture
 Was introduced in 1970
 Included a number of models
 Could upgrade to a more expensive, faster model without having to abandon
original software
 New models are introduced with improved technology, but retain the same
architecture so that the customer’s software investment is protected
 Architecture has survived to this day as the architecture of IBM’s mainframe
product line
+
Structure and Function

 Hierarchical system
 Structure
 Set of interrelated subsystems
 The way in which components
 Hierarchical nature of complex relate to each other
systems is essential to both their
 Function
design and their description
 The operation of individual
 Designer need only deal with a components as part of the
particular level of the system at a structure
time
 Concerned with structure and
function at each level
+
Function

 A computer can perform four


basic functions:

● Data processing
● Data storage
● Data movement
● Control

 CPU – controls the operation of
the computer and performs its data
There are four processing functions
main structural
components  Main Memory – stores data
of the computer:  I/O – moves data between the
computer and its external
environment

 System Interconnection – some


mechanism that provides for
communication among CPU, main
memory, and I/O
+  Control Unit
CPU  Controls the operation of the CPU and
hence the computer
Major structural
 Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU)
components:  Performs the computer’s data processing
function

 Registers
 Provide storage internal to the CPU

 CPU Interconnection
 Some mechanism that provides for
communication among the control unit,
ALU, and registers
