2020-02 Which of the following is/are TRUE regarding the Von Neumann architecture? Single Instruction, Multiple Data (SIMD) Single Program, Multiple Data (SPMD) Single Instruction Stream, Single Data Stream (SISD) Multiple Instruction, Multiple Data (MIMD) Multiple Instruction, Single Data (MISD) Solution The correct option regarding the Von Neumann architecture is (c) Single Instruction Stream, Single Data Stream (SISD) . The Von Neumann architecture is a foundational computer architecture where both data and instructions are stored in the same memory space. This architecture is characterized by a single processing unit that executes instructions sequentially, one at a time, and processes data from a single stream. This aligns with the definition of SISD (Single Instruction, Single Data) in Flynn's Taxonomy, which categorizes computer architectures based on their instruction and data strea...
