BASIC SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The basic operational design of a
computer system is called its
Architecture. John Von Neumann,
a pioneer in computer design, is
given credit for the architecture of
most computers in use today. For
example, the 80x86 family uses
the Von Neumann Architecture
(VNA).

THE
The system
busBUS
connects
the various
components of a VNA machine. The
80x86 family has three major busses: the
address bus, the Data bus, and the
control bus. A bus is a collection of wires
on which electrical signals pass between
components in the system. These busses
vary from processor to processor.
However, each bus carries comparable
information on all processors.
