What is difference engine? Briefly explain the structure of Babbage’s Difference Engine. 4+6 = 10 Answer: Difference Engine: The difference engine was designed to calculate the entries of a table automatically and transfer them via steel punches to an engineer’s plate from which the tables could be printed. The only arithmetic operation performed by this machine was addition. However using a mathematical technique called method of finite difference, a large number of Q2. What is the difference between fixed and floating point numbers? 5+5 = 10 Answer: Fixed and Floating Point Numbers The term ‘fixed point’ refers to the corresponding manner in which numbers are represented, with a fixed number of digits after, and sometimes before, the decimal point. With floating-point Q3. Briefly explain the instruction characteristics. 10 Answer: Each instruction must contain the information required by the CPU for execution. Q4. Briefly explain the read and write cycle of an 8086 processor. 5+5 = 10 Answer: After understanding of the instruction cycle of the processor, now let us learn about the Read-Write cycles. Read Cycle is Data Transfer from Memory or Input/output (I/O) to CPU. Q5. Briefly explain Interrupt Driven I/O. 10 Answer: Interrupt Driven I/O
- 2. Using Program-controlled I/O requires continuous involvement of the processor in the I/O activities. It is desirable to avoid wasting processor execution time. An alternative is for the CPU to issue an I/O command to a module and then go on other work. The I/O module will then Q6. Describe Multiprocessing. Briefly explain its system. 5+5= 10 Answer: Multiprocessing is concerned with the capability of a computer system to provide support to more than one processor or the capability to accomplish more than one program simultaneously. The term multiprocessing is also used to describe interconnected computers’ Dear students get fully solved SMU MBA Spring 2014 assignments Send your semester & Specialization name to our mail id : “ help.mbaassignments@gmail.com ” or Call us at : 08263069601
