VON NEUMANN
* The von Neumann architecture is a foundational computing framework developed by. John von Neumann. It includes CPU, memory, input(I)/output(O) devices, and a control unit, enabling stored- program concept and flexibility in executing a wide range of programs. Though newer paradigms have emerged, it remains essential in shaping modern computing.
* While the von Neumann architecture has served as the basis for computing for many decades, newer computing paradigms, such as parallel processing, distributed computing and emerged to tackle more complex problems and improve overall performance in the modern computing landscape. However, the von Neumann architecture remains a fundamental concepts and continues to shape the way computers function today.
* The von Neumann architecture laid the groundwork for the development of modern operating systems, programming languages, and software. it also greatly influenced the design of electronic computers, making them more accessible and powerful. * One the significant advantages of this architecture is its flexibility. It allows computers
to execute a wide range of programs by simply changing the instructions stored in memory. Before von Neumann's concept, computers were often hardwired for specific tasks, limiting their versatility.
