a computing system as seen by the programmer i e the conceptual structure and functional behavior as distinct from the organization of the data flows and controls the logic design and the physical implementation Amdahl Blaaw and Brooks 1964 Computer Architecture Instruction Set Architecture Machine Organization Organization of Programmable Storage SOFTWARE Data Types Data Structures Encodings Representations Instruction Set Instruction Formats Modes of Addressing and Accessing Data Items and Instructions Exceptional Conditions 8 29 01 UCB Fall 2001 CS152 Kubiatowicz Lec1 3 8 29 01 UCB Fall
