CPU and GPU

What distinguishes CISC from RISC architectures?

CISC uses complex instructions requiring fewer commands to perform tasks, while RISC uses simpler instructions that execute more quickly.

How does the Cache memory enhance CPU performance?

Provides fast access to frequently used data and instructions, reducing latency compared to accessing RAM.

What is the difference between parallel processing and concurrent processing?

Parallel processing involves multiple processors executing different instructions simultaneously, while concurrent processing involves multiple tasks running at the same time.

What is the significance of the Decode Unit in the CPU?

It prepares the execution of instructions by decoding the binary operation code, informing the CPU of the required actions.
