Parallel Computer Structeres

Parallel computers are those computers which emphasize parallel processing and that's very much obvious. Parallel computers are divided into 3 architectural configurations:

  1. Pipeline computers (do overlapped computations to use temporal parallelism) 
  2. Array processors (use multiple synchronized ALUs to do spatial parallelism)
  3. Multiprocessor system (asynchronous parallelism through interactive processors with shared resources)
Instruction Fetch consists of four major steps: Instruction Fetch(IF) from the main memory; Instruction Decoding(ID) identifying the operation to be performed; Operand Fetch(OF); Execution(EX) of decoded arithmetic logic operation. 
In a pipelined computer these steps are executed in overlapped function while in nonpipelined first these 4 steps must be completed then next instruction will be performed. 

A k-stage linear pipeline processor could be almost k times faster.
speedup = Nonpipeline processor/pipeline processor
               = nk/(k+(n-1))
where n is no. of tasks 
and k is no. of stages.

Setting up Cpp environment on VS Code | Windows 10

I have recently switched to Windows 10 from PopOs ( a Debian-based Linux) because of my project-related work which could not be done in any Debian-based Linux. So, I installed windows 10 on my system and it was just a little annoying but cool as well because my system's performance has increased (which was obvious as I have deleted all my previous data just backed up around 60Gb of it). So, starting with the process of setting up the environment for C++ on the VS Code on Windows 10. In Linux, I used to run C++ files on Sublime text only but on Windows, I'm just using VS code for both C++ and JavaScript. Let's start setting up the environment. I am dividing this whole process into 4 steps: First, you have to set up a compiler for the system. As we know that C/C++ is compiled programming language which requires a compiler to make them compiled and run. In Linux, there is already a gcc/g++ compiler preinstalled. But in Windows, you have to install it separately. So you can dow...

 In this post, I'm going to write about a blog that I came across recently. Its name is TipsReport  ( https://tipsreport.com/ ), it's a Hindi blog and the content over there is just amazing.  So starting with the topics, that TipsReport is about. You can find a variety of articles here but most of them can be grouped with tags India, Tips and Tricks, Technology, Health, Education, and Quotes.   Some of the initial blogs on this blog were related to health like the Advantages of eating raisins, the Advantages of Jonk oil, etc.  One of the amazing things that I liked about this blog is that it has content that shares the government schemes, their benefits, and how to avail them. I am sharing one of them here: PMBBY Yojna.  This blog also speaks on many of the government policies and actions. It openly says their faults and gives a solution to them. This blog also covers some political news and movements. TipsReport also writes on the latest technology trends ...
