1.1 Memory and its relevance to D flip flop Memory is an electronic data storage device which is usually implemented on a semiconductor based integrated circuit. The basic operations accomplished by a memory chip are READ in which the data contents of a memory is read out and WRITE in which data is stored in a memory. Each bit of information bits is stored in memory cell consisting of one or more transistors. The most basic such memory unit which stores 1 bit of data is the D flip flop. High…
The Intel Corporation made the Xeon Phi in November 2012 with adaptable programming, energy viability etc. This is an alternate stage and which uses the vector changing unit and interconnections. The High execution machines essentially uses the Intel Xeon phi coprocessor and the Nvidia tesla coprocessors. The Nvidia tesla coprocessor mostly uses the GPU’s, which will eat up low essentialness. To make these programming models we make usage of OpenMP for Intel Xeon and for Nvidia we make use of…
Computer Hardware: Everything Your Computer Needs To Operate A Computer is made up of various components in order for the computer or laptop to operate here is a list of components that a computer, Laptop will use in order to function correctly. Motherboard: A Motherboard is the main printed circuit board it contains connectors and expansion ports for attaching additional peripherals to the main board almost all main boards contain logical and commonly used input devices such as PS2 connectors…
What size would you want the third computer system to be? (low range) When building a computer system, the first step is choosing the case size of the computer system and this is exactly what we will do first. So, after discussing with the client the first question we asked was what case size the user would want. As this is the third and cheapest computer system we are designing, the client opted for a smaller size case. The user requested the height of the case to be anywhere between 5-12…
Since the invention of computers or machines, their capability to perform various tasks went on growing exponentially. Humans have developed the power of computer systems in terms of their diverse working domains, their increasing speed, and reducing size with respect to time. A branch of Computer Science named Artificial Intelligence pursues creating the computers or machines as intelligent as human beings. What is Artificial Intelligence? According to the father of Artificial Intelligence,…
Quantum Computing vs Conventional Computing Conventional computing methods are the ones we use normally in our day to day lives on our computers, cell phones, laptops etc. Methods employed to solve problems via conventional or classical computing are by far closest to the way a human brain performs them. In classical computing, information is stored in bits which are the discrete values of 1s and 0s. Performing operations on these discrete values on a classical machine is the same as performing…
The DE2-115 peripherals lab results were quite interesting, both numerically and visually. In part one of the lab, the results pertained to the largest number a bus could hold. For example, it was calculated that a bus of [17:0] could hold any number up to the limit of 262143 using the equation (1). Also, when the value of X in Figure 5 was changed a certain number of lights would begin to blink on the LEDs above the switches. As the value of X increased the number of the switch that would…
My outlook in 20 years will be a reflection of my past years so that I may use my knowledge to help people of the next generation and make it a better place using the community.”Your generation has the biggest challenges and the most potential”-Harry Kim. This quote is lecturing to the upcoming generation, so that every generation will help in a way to help make a better world. My future will consist three reasons of what I can do to help this world a better place. One reason would be that I…
What is a computer? If you were to stop any random person on the street, and ask them the simple question, what is a computer? They would just smile, briefly chuckle, and continue on their way. Trust me, I have done that several times before, and spoiler alert, they all ended that way. I believe there are two reasons for this. The first, is that they know what a computer really is and think you are joking and therefore move on with their lives. The second, is that they don’t have a clue what a…
This past year learning the basics of computer engineering has been quite an enlightening experience. There are many possibilities and job opportunities related to this major. When I first came to CSULB I was unsure of what to expect. I had a pretty closed view of what was possible and what I could do as a computer engineer. Now that I have explored some realms, I am further unsure of what it is that I want to do. This is not because I do not like what I’m studying, but because I am fascinated…
