What is Von-Neumann Architecture?

Easy Engineering Concepts

 Hello Students, In this blog we are going to look into another important question of Chapter 1 which is Von Neumann Architecture.

Q2. What is Von-Neumann Architecture?


Ans. Mathematician John Von Neumann conceived a computer architecture which forms the core of nearly every computer system in use today. This architecture is known as Von Neumann architecture.

 It is a design model for the modern computers which has central processing unit (CPU) and the concept of memory used for storing both data and instructions. 

 This model implements the stored program concept in which the data and the instructions both are stored in the memory.
     
All computers share the same basic architecture which have memory, an I/O system, arithmetic logic unit (ALU) and control unit (CU).
