So, to recap this is ELE 475 or Computer Architecture class.

We're going to be focusing on abstraction layers and talking about instruction set

architecture and microarchitecture, register transfer language.

Little bit into operating systems and little bit down into gates but we're

really trying to harness technology and bring it to applications, or bring it into

what humans want to accomplish. Today, we talked about ISA, or instruction

set architecture, versus microarchitecture, or Big-A architecture

versus microarchitecture. And we talked about some ISA

characteristics including machine models, encoding, data types, what sort of

instructions you can have, addressing modes, and encoding.

Next lecture, we're going to start off by talking about microcode.

And then, move into our first review lecture, which is review on how to build

pipeline processors, review on pipeline. So with that, I'll end here and thank you

all for listening.
