The proliferation of affordable and relatively powerful computers changed the landscape of computing across the globe. This chapter looks at the introduction of one machine, the BBC Microcomputer, and its influence on the culture of computing in Britain.

  • ACORN RISC MACHINE Jitendra Marathe ARM Is a Reduced
    SRJIS / BIMONTHLY/JITENDRA MARATHE. (581-585) ACORN RISC MACHINE Jitendra Marathe ARM is a reduced instruction set computer (RISC) instruction set architecture (ISA) developed by ARM Holdings. It was named the Advanced RISC Machine and, before that, the Acorn RISC Machine. The ARM architecture is the most widely used 32-bit instruction set architecture in numbers produced. Originally conceived by Acorn Computers for use in its personal computers, the first ARM-based products were the co-processor modules for the BBC series of computers. Features and applications: In 2005 about 98% of the more than one billion mobile phones sold each year used at least one ARM processor. As of 2009 ARM processors accounted for approximately 90% of all embedded 32-bit RISC processors and were used extensively in consumer electronics, including personal digital assistants (PDAs), tablets, mobile phones, digital media and music players, hand-held game consoles, calculators and computer peripherals such as hard drives and routers. Licensees: The ARM architecture is licensable. Companies that are current or former ARM licensees include Alcatel-Lucent, Apple Inc., AppliedMicro, Atmel, Broadcom, Cirrus Logic, CSR_plc, Digital Equipment Corporation, Ember, Energy Micro, Freescale, Intel (through DEC), LG, Marvell Technology Group, Microsemi, Microsoft, NEC, Nintendo, Nuvoton, Nvidia, Sony, NXP (formerly Philips Semiconductor), Oki, ON Semiconductor, Psion, Qualcomm, Renesas, Samsung, Sharp, Silicon Labs, STMicroelectronics, Symbios Logic, Texas Instruments, VLSI Technology, Yamaha, Fuzhou Rockchip, and ZiiLABS. In addition to the abstract architecture, ARM offers several microprocessor core designs, including the ARM7, ARM9, ARM11, Cortex- A8, Cortex-A9, and Cortex-A15. Companies often license these designs from ARM to manufacture and integrate into their own system on a chip (SoC) with other components like RAM, GPUs, or radio basebands (for mobile phones).

  • Arm System-On-Chip Architecture.Pdf
    Preface Aims This book introduces the concepts and methodologies employed in designing a system-on-chip (SoC) based around a microprocessor core and in designing the microprocessor core itself. The principles of microprocessor design are made con- crete by extensive illustrations based upon the ARM. The aim of the book is to assist the reader in understanding how SoCs and micro- processors are designed and used, and why a modern processor is designed the way that it is. The reader who wishes to know only the general principles should find that the ARM illustrations add substance to issues which can otherwise appear somewhat ethereal; the reader who wishes to understand the design of the ARM should find that the general principles illuminate the rationale for the ARM being as it is. Other microprocessor architectures are not described in this book. The reader who wishes to make a comparative study of architectures will find the required informa- tion on the ARM here but must look elsewhere for information on other designs. Audience The book is intended to be of use to two distinct groups of readers: • Professional hardware and software engineers who are tasked with designing an SoC product which incorporates an ARM processor, or who are evaluating the ARM for a product, should find the book helpful in their duties. Although there is considerable overlap with ARM technical publications, this book provides a broader context with more background. It is not a substitute for the manufac turer's data, since much detail has had to be omitted, but it should be useful as an introductory overview and adjunct to that data.

    Professor Dr Steve Furber Interviewed by Richard Sharpe 15 June 2018 At the BCS London Office, 5 Southampton Street, London, WC2E 7HA Kindly provided by BCS – The Chartered Institute for IT Copyright Archives of IT (Registered Charity 1164198) Steve Furber Page 2 AIT/055 Welcome to the Archives of Information Technology, where we aim to capture the past and inspire the future. It is Friday the 15th of June 2018, and we are in the HQ of the British Computer Society in London. I’m Richard Sharpe, and since the early 1970s have been researching on and writing about IT. You will all have made a mobile phone call, and used the ever-growing range of applications for mobile devices. So you owe something, a lot in fact, to our entrant to the archives today, who is Professor Dr Stephen Furber, CBE, who co-designed the chip that is in over a billion mobile devices. [00:47] Professor Furber, you were born in Manchester in 1953. Your father was a nuclear scientist? My father was a mechanical engineer, who spent his early career at UMIST in Manchester as a PhD student and lecturer, but in the mid-Fifties, so shortly after I was born, he moved to the Nuclear Power Group and he spent the rest of his career in the nuclear industry. Right. And, after bringing you up, your mother, who had trained as a physiotherapist, took up the work of a maths teacher, is that right? That’s correct, yes. And did that influence you in any way? Well, I was well through school at the time.
