The document introduces computer organization and architecture. It discusses that computer organization refers to the operational units and their interconnections, while architecture refers to attributes visible to the programmer. The four main structural components of a computer are the CPU, main memory, I/O, and system interconnection. The CPU controls the computer's operation and performs data processing via a control unit, ALU, registers, and internal interconnection.

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

(d) Data processing (2) The Computer Structure + - 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
