fast memory block known as Instruction cache. The reason for using small and fast memory is to reduce latency. Instruction cache also stores recently executed instructions making the instruction fetch more efficient. All the instructions to be fetched are stored in this memory and are fetched by the program counter. Program counter is used to search the instructions. If the desired instruction is found, then it is termed as cache hit or else it is a cache miss. We all are familiar that superscalar

Buying a computer today is much more complicated then it was ten years ago. The choices we have are abundant, and the information we must gather to make those choices is much greater. The average consumer is a more educated buyer; they at least have some ideas of what they want in a computer. Yet, we must still ask ourselves these significant questions; such as: What will the primary function of my computer be? What computer components should I consider at the time of purchase? How much money do
allows continued execution for instructions that use both the memory access pathway and the arithmetic pathway in the event that the data cache misses, this means that the requested data was not in the cache and had to be accessed in the data memory. The pipeline can also take alternate paths for different memory operations. Using a direct mapped 128 entry cache, which stores previous branch instructions, the pipeline can make targeted address, or dynamic branch predictions. This means it fills the
Web analytics is the process of analyzing the behavior of visitors to a website. The use of Web analytics is said to enable a business to attract more visitors, retain or attract new customers for goods or services, or to increase the dollar volume each customer spends. By monitoring a Web analytics dashboard, businesses will be able to keep track of the traffic on their websites and tweak them whenever need arises. There are two categories of Web analytics, On-site and Off-site web analytics. Off-site
Recently Intel introduced their newest line of the Pentium 4 processors with the new Prescott core. In this paper I will discuss how the Pentium 4 processor works and the changes that have been made since its release, but mainly on the modifications in the newest Pentium 4's with the Prescott core. I will also briefly compare the performance levels of some of the different types of Pentium 4's. The Pentium 4 line of processors encompasses a large range of clock speeds, from 1.7GHz up to 3.6GHz
AMD vs. Pentium A couple of years ago when Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) introduced it’s K5 microprocessor, the phrase “too little, too late'; was plastered across their name countless times. At that time, if anyone were to name an underdog to the Intel dominated microprocessor market, Cyrix with their dirt-cheap 5x86 processor would have been the favorite. Intel had been the only processor that could handle day-to-day functions at reasonable speeds. Such simple tasks as word processing
ef-ficiency and economy of processor area, the sharing of processorresources between threads extends beyond the execution units; ofparticular concern is that the threads share access to the memorycaches.We demonstrate that this shared access to memory caches pro-vides not only an easily used high bandwidth covert channel be-tween threads, but also permits a malicious thread (operating, intheory, with limited privileges) to monitor the execution of anotherthread, allowing in many cases for theft of cryptographic
Literature Review On Cache Coherence Protocols Shared memory multiprocessors provide the advantage of sharing code and data structures among the processors comprising the parallel application. As a result of sharing, multiple copies of the shared block exist in one or more caches at the same time. The copies of the shared block existing in different aches must be consistent.t. This is called as the cache coherence problem. Various protocols have been designed to ensure coherence in hardware and policies
A Tour of the Pentium Pro Processor Microarchitecture Introduction One of the Pentium Pro processor's primary goals was to significantly exceed the performance of the 100MHz Pentium processor while being manufactured on the same semiconductor process. Using the same process as a volume production processor practically assured that the Pentium Pro processor would be manufacturable, but it meant that Intel had to focus on an improved microarchitecture for ALL of the performance gains. This guided
the storage devices that are not directly accessible, by the Central Processing Unit. Computers use several memory types organized in a storage hierarchy, in the Central Processing Unit. The memory hierarchy consists of CPU registers, SRAM caches, external caches, DRAM, paging systems and virtual memory on the hard drive of the computer. Initially, storage devices were referred to as memory, but nowadays memory refers to a Random Access Memory (RAM) that is a semiconductor storage device. The first
but it only had a 16-bit path between the CPU and the computer memory. The DX on the other hand had a 32-bit data bus between the CPU and the memory chips allowing larger data transfers so it had faster through put. It also was able to use external cache memory, usually about 64k, which also improved performance. The 386 came in two different types they both had a internal bus width of 32 bit, the SX had a address bus width of 24 bit, and a external bus width of 16 bit, its internal and external speed

instruction set of approximately 80; it has 32 KB of on-chip cache, verses the non-MMX on-chip cache of 16 KB, which enhances performance of even non-MMX applications, and it makes use of Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) for more efficient data processing. The 57 new and powerful instructions are specifically designed to process and manipulate audio, video, and graphical data much more effectively. Intel, having doubled its on-chip cache size from 16 KB on non-MMX processor chips to 32 KB on MMX
Web analytics is collection of web data to understand and optimize web usage by Analyzing and reporting the web data. It helps us study how much impact the website has on its users and thus helps optimize the website based on the results of web analysis. Web analytics helps us know critical information about our website like how many visitors who visited our website, Bounce rate (the number of visitors visited the website and exited rather than going to another page), unique visitors, time

In Figure 2, the server side is composed of GIS web service providers, an image cache server, a web server and a firewall. Figure 2.

There are three types of files, one of these file type is a JEPG. A jpeg image is a still high quality image. A large jpeg images can take longer to download due to the file size therefore affecting the website performance. The user side factors is having a good internet
