Only once in a lifetime will a new invention come about to touch every aspect of our lives. Such a device that changes the way we work‚ live‚ and play is a special one‚ indeed. The Microprocessor has been around since 1971 years‚ but in the last few years it has changed the American calculators to video games and computers (Givone 1). Many microprocessors have been manufactured for all sorts of products; some have succeeded and some have not. This paper will discuss the evolution and

Evolution of Microprocessor It is interesting to note that the microprocessor had existed for only 10 years prior to the creation of the PC! Intel invented the microprocessor in 1971; the PC was created by IBM in 1981. Now more than 20 years later‚ we are still using systems based more or less on the design of that first PC. The processors powering our PCs today are still backward compatible in many ways with the 8088 that IBM selected for the first PC in 1981. November 15‚ 2001 marked the 30th anniversary

Egypt’s economic policy during 2004-2008 is best described as a command economy due to the government’s involvement in the process of reforming economic policies that were hindering the country ability to grow economically. The government’s involvement did help boost the growth rate by liberalizing trade. Egypt reduced the tariffs‚ tax cuts‚ deregulation‚ and made changes in investment regulations to fuel their economic growth. Eventually‚ with these changes Egypt saw great economic growth. Big name

80286 The needs of a multitasking/multiuser operating system include environment preservation during task switches‚ operating system and user protection‚ and virtual memory management. The Intel 80286 was the first 8086 family processor designed to make implementation of these features relatively easy. The 80286 was used as the CPU in the IBM PC/AT and its clones‚ in the IBM PS/2 Model 50‚ and in the IBM PS/1. As you can see in the block diagram in Figure 5.2‚ an 80286 contains four separate

Since the term "CPU" is generally defined as a software (computer program) execution device‚ the earliest devices that could rightly be called CPU’s came with the advent of the stored-program computer. - Moore’s Law Gordon E. Moore‚ a co-founder of Intel Corporation‚ devised an empiric observation that the complexity of integrated circuits‚ with respect to minimum component cost‚ doubles every 24 months. Moore’s original as found in his publication "Cramming more components onto integrated circuits"
